This video shows you how to use Falco to detect potential risks and then log them to different Parseable log streams depending on their severity using Fluent Bit. Security threat hunting by nature is extensive. You’d ideally want to capture everything you can - with least amount of instrumentation. This is where eBPF shines. You can capture OS level metrics, events with zero instrumentation with eBPF based systems. eBPF is now one of the widest-used options in the cloud native space.

Databases are one of the core components of a business. Well performing, well tuned databases mean faster transactions, better experience and better profits. Most of the popular databases offer several built-in telemetry features. But as companies grow, workloads evolve, it is crucial to centralize all application and infrastructure telemetry into a single location.

In this video we explain how to extend Temporal to send application and workflow logs to Parseable. You can use this integration to capture audit logs, debug failure, analyse user behaviour and more. #tutorial #logging #temporal #observability #security #audit #opensource

Automated processes and tools have been reading our content for some time, building humongous databases of our carefully crafted words so people can actually find them buried across the vast swathes of the internet. And now, even more automated processes and machines are reading our content, packaging it into large models that make sense to few but bring sense to so many.

Like many of you, I use Git regularly. Some of us use the terminal and other tools built into our IDE. Whereas I, and many others, like to use a dedicated git graphical user interface (GUI). For many years, I have used Fork, but the good folks at Tower sent me a license to take their well-known and venerable git GUI for a spin.

Are you a guitar player who wants some flexibility with your playing but always thought MIDI pickups were slow, unreliable, or expensive? I take a look at the Tripleplay Express from @Fishman_Music and find that now, MIDI guitar pickups, with a few caveats, are a quite usable and effective way to may your music more creative.

A new macOS virtualisation tool from @macstadium makes creating, running, and sharing macOS virtual machines easier. Even better, it's free! Orka desktop lets you push and pull images from OCI-compatible image registries, fitting right into developer and DevOps workflows.

Kicking off my series on learning how to play the drums based on teaching I've been doing for the past 18 months or so. If you've never played the drums before and want to learn, this series will help you get playing beats quickly. In this first video, I look at what a drum kit is and a brief history.

It has a strange name, but a few of you asked me to take a look at this simple but clean online tool for creating HTML-delivered interactive fiction. I'm not sure of its maintenance status, but it's well-suited for creating simpler stories requiring a little programming logic.

My highlight of IFA 2024 in Berlin was the PocketDrum Plus 2 that has audio and MIDI out for silent air drumming… https://www.aeroband.net/products/pocketdrum2-plus

Another item taken from the MIT museum exhibition, I love the look of struggle here.

I already miss autumn/fall. Now it's dark and cold in the northern hemisphere. This was a lovely, almost perfect fall video taken in Harvard Yard. #autumn #fall #harvard #massachusetts

If you've seen any American films or TV shows, you know these yellow buses. Imagine my delight when I witnessed this little procession of them!

I rearranged my video and audio-making desk recently and wanted to find a way to fit everything without having my space littered with stands. So, I took off the cap on the central pole in my VESA monitor stands and found a great space to fit other straight stands. Double the capacity, same space occupied. Hopefully, it works for you!

The first of several shorts I will upload from 2023's IT Arena in Lviv, Ukraine. This time celebrating ten years of the event. I have attended 4! 😱 Always such a great event, stay tuned!

One of the first trains to hit 100mph, we were passing through Scotland and inadvertently came across this special journey. Original speed and no sound added for the authentic experience!
