Let’s be honest, if you’re a software engineer, you know where all this compute and power consumption is going. While it’s popular to blame #LLMs, y’all know how much is wasted on #docker, microservices, overscaled #kubernetes, spark/databricks and other unnecessary big data tech. It’s long past time we’re honest with the public about how much our practices are hurting the climate, and stop looking for scapegoats https://thereader.mitpress.mit.edu/the-staggering-ecological-impacts-of-computation-and-the-cloud/


The further #Matrix goes the more obvious it becomes we should've stuck to #XMPP. The developer time wasted on Matrix is immense, imagine if that effort would've been stuck into making a nice XMPP server implementation that plays well with #Docker or #Kubernetes, with all the basic features people desire baked in by default. They would've had time to spare on a nice client if they felt this was needed to make a nice complete package to market.


Alright, sabbatical over. It's time to shred.

Happy to announce that I'll be joining the https://cncf.io as a developer advocate. I look forward to working on the things that our contributors need to move forward, see ya'll in Chicago!
