Ok, it's Friday afternoon and I'm tired of messing around with Prometheus, so it's time for another paper-reading liveblog!

Today I'm reading "Bigger, Longer, Fewer: what do cluster jobs look like outside Google?" by George Amvrosiadis et al.

I gave #linkedin an honest try, for a year or more, in terms of finding #work.

It's a cesspool of #toxicpositivity and fake job postings.

Now I'm asking, with all urgency -- to anyone who has anything #tech to offer, please consider a guy who has:

- 30 yrs of experience
- out of work for 20 months
- 3 kids, one of who is coming up on her first birthday
- a track record for secure systems
- a month left before being evicted

"This page looks better in our app"

Then you should probably do something about it and fix your website, shouldn't you ? I don't know why you are telling me, open a ticket and deal with it !

@1HommeAzerty @alter_unicorn @sknob @defred

Pfuiou merci c't'équipe, j'ai :
- compris le principe du QR code, notamment que
- le lien est codé dans le motif et décodé directement
- installé et utilisé `qrencode`
et je me sens *un petit peu* moins con

Voilà l'oeuvre :

Elastic has filed a ticket to donate the eBPF based profiling agent that used to be called Prodfiler to OpenTelemetry. I am extremely psyched!!!

I'm looking for scholarly research on archetypes/taxonomies/characterization of open source governance models.

There are several models out there: Benevolent Dictator for Life (BDL), Technical Steering Council/Committee (TSC), loosely defined meritocratic lazy consensus... And would love to read some deep analysis on those. Any pointers are appreciated.

Please boost for reach 🙏🏼

@eliocamp @coolbutuseless another good developer arrives at the crushing reality that CRAN’s motivations do not align with either end users OR developers. Who do they serve? No one seems to know.

Imagine I posted a joke here about me inviting Idris over for the evening, and Idris says OK but only if it can bring its friend GHC along, and then GHC shows up and it's towing its "service animal" which is a 5,000 pound elephant with "LLVM-13" painted on the side

In Perez-Reverte’s book The Club Dumas, the main character is given a 40pg report containing an author history, publication record, supporting images, citations, and bibliography to accompany a grimoire that he’s hired to investigate. Similar reports should be written and published for all major computing grimoires.
