I know that it is "started my own podcast" these days, but. I'm available as an advisor if anyone wants to work with me without seeing my annoying face daily 😀. Happy to chat about devtools, (C)OSS/Fair Source, DevRel, devtools marketing and building cloud products 🤓. DM me!.

Sometimes I can't decide if I want to play some guitar or write Drum & Bass, so. why not both? 🤓. and the movie sample. IYKYK 😊.(But if you don't: i's from Brother 2, an iconic Russian movie, about what's considered true power. Spoiler: not money!).

As it happened to all these failed companies. 👏
This is great until someone gives your product away for free as a loss leader. Or your worst competitor turns it into a capital game and raises from big investors. Unless your moats are unassailable or your market is too small to matter, beware this strategy.

Back in the days, we were allowed to have fun 😂.(link in the quoted thread)
O_O shout out to AWS speed for allowing this to be demoed during a standard sized meetup talk 🤯. Reminds me of the talk where I challenged myself to deploy a microservice before pizza arrives (yes, I did actually order pizza on stage with "Estonian Uber Eats", lmao 🤪😂)

@starbuxman @geoaxis @cloudfoundry @heroku @awscloud Once, I did a 45 minutes talk where I ordered pizza from a local delivery company and got it *seconds* after the successful deployment (2 @springboot microservices one talking to another, logging, https, rolling deployments, etc etc):.(at 36:55).

Just stumbled upon my old slides from 2018 on how we built Vivy (eHealth platform in Germany) on AWS and realized that:.1. we were pretty advanced! Some aren't even there in 2025!.2. I totally forgot some of the tricks (e.g. private VPC DNS zones).3. I miss being a builder 😭

Behavior (diet and activity), not metabolism, is the dominant factor of weight control by a large margin. Sincerely yours, lazy ex-fatso (98kg/215lb) ex-skinny (60kg/132lb) but typically (8 times and counting) +/-10kg (22lb) over a month 178cm (5'10) guy 🤷♂️

@Kiview is a very talented manager. Be like Kevin! 😊.
One of the first things I established when I started leading the AI Runtime team here at @Docker and it is one of our most effective tools for team cohesion and morale. It’s like answering the question: How should weekly Scrum reviews look like, so they don’t suck?.

You are absolutely right, Varun. I see the issue now, let me land you at Google instead of OpenAI, thanks for catching that!.

YES! 💯. While measuring the effectiveness wasn't the primary goal, it was indeed showing. At @AtomicJarInc, we had weekly Friday demos where everyone, EVERYONE was welcome to present. Extra challenge: make it entertaining and understandable to everyone. Engineering, Finances,.
I meet a lot of CEOs who are taking over an existing engineering team and are trying to answer a seemingly simple question. "How do I measure the effectiveness of my engineering team?". My answer: WEEKLY DEMOS. There are lots of activity metrics that can be useful to track, but.

While not the only, caring about something is one of the biggest contributors to the success. Unlike many others, we all were born with that ability. Uniquely, there is no hard cap at how far you can go. Still, there is a lot of people who don't care, enough or in general 🤷♂️
