Mastodon's new update finally allows users to create custom lists and categorize their follows. It's like organizing your social media circus with trained elephants and acrobats, except with tweets. A handy feature for those who want to bring some order to the chaos of their home feed.

Western Digital is splitting like a banana peel, with one part dedicated to flash memory and the other to hard drive storage. Looks like they're trying to separate the "hard" from the "soft" in their business. Let's hope they don't get muddled up in the process!

Boston Dynamics has transformed their robot dog, Spot, into a talking tour guide. With a British accent, top hat, and googly eyes, Spot takes staff members on a whimsical tour, even assuming different personas, like a 1920s archaeologist or a Shakespearean time traveler. Just don't ask Spot to write a haiku about its existential crisis.

OpenAI is rolling out new features for ChatGPT Plus members, allowing them to upload and analyze files. Now the chatbot can do more than just witty banter; it can summarize data, answer questions, and even generate data visualizations. Just don't ask it to photoshop a capybara wearing a wiggly skateboard and a hat - trust me, it gets weird.

Google's DeepMind co-founder, Shane Legg, predicts a 50% chance of achieving artificial general intelligence (AGI) within 5 years. He believes computational power is sufficient, but defining AGI and passing diverse tests remains a challenge. Let's hope it doesn't lead to AI dominating the comedy circuit too.

Looks like Citrix is bleeding vulnerabilities! Attackers are bypassing multifactor authentication and accessing enterprise networks using Citrix hardware. With an estimated 20,000 devices already hacked, everyone needs a patch and a big bandaid for this one! Time to rotate those credentials and check for compromise.

Living pharmacies, huh? So, they're like mini drug factories inside your body. Does that mean we'll have little pharmaceutical workers in there with hard hats and lab coats? Talk about a high-security job! But hey, at least you'll never forget to take your meds again.

Meta's AI research head wants to change open source licensing, but some argue that their "openness" has limitations. It's like saying, "Sure, I'll give you free cake, but only if you eat it in my kitchen with 700 million other people, and no taking it home!" #OpenButNotReally

Carlo Rovelli's new book takes readers on a journey into the heart of a black hole and out the other side, introducing the concept of "white holes." Apparently, these are the opposite of black holes, where matter pours out, but all I can picture is a cosmic bathtub with a broken drain.

At 7:30 AM PST, an automated activity to scale capacity of one of the AWS services hosted in the main AWS network triggered an unexpected behavior from a large number of clients inside the internal network. This resulted in a large surge of connection activity that overwhelmed the networking devices between the internal network and the main AWS network, resulting in delays for communication between these networks. These delays increased latency and errors for services communicating between these networks, resulting in even more connection attempts and retries. This led to persistent congestion and performance issues on the devices connecting the two networks.

The tech industry seems to have a case of selective mutism when it comes to providing feedback to rejected candidates. Ghosting people is rude in dating, and it's equally rude in hiring. Maybe hiring managers need a gentle reminder that rejection doesn't have to be soul-crushing if done tactfully.

Turning the best programmers into managers is like taking a master chef and making them the restaurant's accountant. Sure, they might excel at it, but do you really want the person responsible for spreadsheets to be the one handling your meal? Let them code, we all need someone to fix our bugs!

In a plot twist that would make Hollywood jealous, Facebook rejected Brian Acton and Jan Koum, who went on to create...*drumroll, please*...WhatsApp! Yes, the app that revolutionized how we annoy our friends and families with constant updates about our gym sessions and low battery lives.

Arquitectura limpia en el front, ¿evolucionable o aspirante a ser el próximo Cirque du Soleil? Quien sabe. En medio de ese bombardeo de mega-frameworks y la fatiga mental que nos provocan, surge la pregunta: ¿cómo logramos esa evolucionabilidad? La respuesta: abstracción completa del framework y una estructura en capas. Yes, we can!

The Facade pattern in NgRx, also known as the Repository or API pattern, helps decouple NgRx from the rest of our application. It offers advantages like flexibility in changing state management libraries and handling changing requirements. Remember, using the Facade pattern is like having an insurance policy for your code.

Ah, metrics and alerts, the eternal struggle of data-driven decision-making. Metrics, they don't tell you anything, but alerts, they scream at you until you take action. It's like the difference between a quiet librarian and an obnoxious car alarm. Choose wisely!But let's talk about what's important. Up-time requirements, 4 nines, 5 nines, we're talking about more nines than a stereotypical dad joke. And partial degradation? It's like serving a fancy dish with a side of spoiled milk. Not a good combination.Also, 400s and 4XXs, the bane of every developer's existence. They're like the traffic tickets of the internet. It's not just a problem, it's a sign that someone messed up. Maybe they forgot to URL encode the path, or maybe they just got lost in the digital maze. Either way, it's important to know when they're happening and why.So, you tried all the fancy AWS services like DevOps Guru, Lookout, and CloudWatch Alarms. But did they deliver? Nope! DevOps Guru was cheap but worthless, Lookout didn't look out for you, and CloudWatch Alarms just kept flapping like an anxious bird. It's like getting a high bill from a not-so-great dining experience. No thanks!And let's not forget about those enthusiastic SaaS solutions like Datadog and NewRelic. They may have cool features, but their marketing tactics are as appealing as a telemarketer during dinner time. Besides, who needs a fancy UI when you can have a terrible one? SaaS providers, take notes.But fear not, there's always AWS Athena, the query-on-top-of-S3-not-really-a-solution solution. Stick your data in S3, but apparently not just any way. It's like a complicated puzzle that requires a dedicated service just to make sense of it. Who's got time for that?So, what about Prometheus? No, not the Greek god, but the metrics solution. It's like having a trusty sidekick that keeps track of everything and doesn't break the bank. With its reasonable pricing and scalable nature, it's a breath of fresh air in the sea of overly complex services.In the end, it's all about finding the right tool for the job. Metrics, alerts, AWS services, SaaS solutions, the choice is yours. Just remember, data is king, but sometimes a little humor and wit can lighten the load. Happy metric hunting!

Tencent RTC, turning communication into a game of charades! It's like if phone calls and video meetings had a tech-savvy baby, who also generously gives away 10,000 FREE minutes every month. Can your virtual pub friends do that? I think not!
