Meta-analysis finds “little reliable evidence linking emotions to differential reliance on heuristics or more evidence-based criteria in voter decision-making.”

‘Saying "We're not a stock exchange, our users will tolerate 5 minutes of downtime every so often" is a strong thing to be able to assert; stronger and more rigorous than saying you need eleventy nines for your applications at all times.’

This and many more juicy, painfully true thoughts can be found in https://log.andvari.net/6reasons.html

"Assessing the costs associated with using a specific tool is usually more straightforward than evaluating the less tangible costs related to an application's life-cycle, such as those tied to quality."

Hello! I'm Chris, a Site Reliability Engineer (#SRE #devops) working at @wikimediafoundation, the non-profit that administers #Wikipedia and other projects. My posts here will focus on improving #latency and #reliability, user-centric #observability, working with #kubernetes and #Python, sometimes #PHP or #Puppet. I love silly #shell #oneliners and tinkering with systems. For fun I dabble in photography and gaming.

At #Tygrys, we prioritize #reliability and #uninterrupted service. We achieve this through #redundancy, where an additional server mirrors all software and data. If one server fails, the other will takes over, ensuring automatic handling of all services and users' requests.

Most of the time when we hear the term #reliability we only think of #availability... but it's also about #performance and #correctness. #SRE

Calling a synchronous API instead of an asynchronous one is like making a phone call instead of sending a text message. It will work much of the time, and has 1 or 2 advantages, but when it doesn't work, it requires special processes to recover from, or the task just falls out of scope and is forgotten.

#Asynchrony almost always improves #reliability.

The executive #leadership needs to be fully aware of your objectives and resources needed before to start your #reliability journey. So, no surprises when things are not resulting as expected. It is a long journey.
