How can you land 5 kilometers above the Moon?<\/a><\/div>\n
\n

An in-depth analysis of the crash of a recent lunar lander. It\u2019s really interesting that a feature designed specifically to improve robustness to failures instead made the system less<\/em> reliable in unforeseen circumstances.<\/p>\n

Cloud Dependencies Need to Stop F\u2014ing Us When They Go Down<\/a><\/div>\n
\n

With each external cloud service you deploy, you introduce the amount of unreliability that product has into your own product\u2019s reliability (even if it\u2019s incredibly small).<\/p>\n

Incident vs. bug: How to distinguish between these two (seemingly) related concepts<\/a><\/div>\n
\n

While it can seem pretty insignificant, properly distinguishing between an incident and a bug is worthwhile. Why? Because it will ultimately help dictate your response to it.<\/p>\n

An educational side project<\/a><\/div>\n
\n

This is impressive: an engineer built an entire model of a ride-share system, complete with simulated riders and drivers, metrics, containerization, the works, all to gain a better understanding of how these kinds of systems work.<\/p>\n

Why bother with SLI and SLO?<\/a><\/div>\n
\n

This article answers the most important questions:
\n* How is using service levels any different than \u201cregular\u201d alarms?
\n* What\u2019s in it for the company and the teams?
\n* Why bother? Don\u2019t we already have enough work to do?<\/p>\n

How Traceloop Leverages Honeycomb and LLMs to Generate E2E Tests<\/a><\/div>\n
\n

Interesting idea: feeding trace data into an LLM and asking it to build an end-to-end (E2E) test for the entire system. This article is a good description of what they\u2019re doing but I\u2019d be interested to hear more about the results.<\/p>\n

Reflections on Amazon Prime Video\u2019s Monolith Move<\/a><\/div>\n
\n

What conclusions can we draw from the recent announcement that Amazon Prime Video is moving from serverless to a monolith?<\/p>\n

The supposed difference between the two methods is not based on the technology itself, but the context in which you\u2019re working.<\/p>\n
