sr engineers are wiped from reviewing LLM output and holding context for everyone else's work in flight. jr engineers are stressed because fast implementation used to build careers, and now an LLM does this. The fix? pair people up, keep pairs stable, talk more. www.honeycomb.io/blog/spend-m...

Nishi Bhonsle at #O11yCon: "Telemetry is not an afterthought. It is part of your feature development." The line between writing code and understanding what it does in production is blurring fast. Engineers who aren't thinking about that convergence already have a gap to close. #honeycomb

Honeycomb @honeycomb.io · 21/05/2026

@nathenharvey.bsky.social at #O11yCon: AI adoption is nearly universal. Outcomes vary wildly. AI is an amplifier. The goal is not more AI output. It's building an environment where that output can survive the trip to production without burning out the team. #honeycomb #dora #ai

Honeycomb @honeycomb.io · 21/05/2026

AI agents are transforming software development—teams now mean humans and agents side by side. Real collaboration needs more than markdown: charts, graphs, interactive surfaces. Honeycomb’s updated Canvas, built on @tldraw.com delivers exactly that. #honeycomb #tldraw #observability #ai #canvas

Production issues don’t stay in one place. They move across services and show up as disconnected signals—hard to piece together fast. The advantage is being able to follow one path through the system, see where it breaks, and why. That’s single-thread visibility 👉 buff.ly/EbnUxIX
