@getpacketai.bsky.socialWe almost spent £2.4k/month on a database upgrade because our tracing was measuring connection pool wait time as query time. The real problem: holding DB…

@getpacketai.bsky.socialYour alerting says the database is healthy—but is it healthy with spare capacity? How one team's redundancy gap turned routine patching into a 40-minute outage.

@davidaugust.bsky.socialI hardly use WhatsApp, and not done anything with WhatsApp for at least 48 hours.
They put account in review, reviewed my account, and decided my number can’t use WhatsApp.
We must leave meta systems; they are unreliable and working to harm us.

@praveenlavu.bsky.socialI was proud of my fallback logic. Every single-failure test was green.
Then I realized: real outages don't fail one thing at a time.
The test I kept avoiding was all three down at once. https://praveenlavu.com/dispatch/test-the-correlated-outage #testing #reliability

@sjenergy.caReliability isn't reactive. Our crews trim trees near lines before they're a problem, because the goal isn't to restore power. It's to keep it on.

@mh2333.bsky.social/health returns 200 because the process is alive, so the load balancer keeps routing traffic to an instance that cannot reach its database. Liveness and readiness are not the same check.

@jmm86.bsky.socialTo ensure reliable CI/CD, keeping artifact immutability is key. If QA passes the same image, it hits production reliably. For example, our image pipeline locks down previous builds. #CI/CD #reliability
