Andreas @taranetz.com · 08/06/2026Al-generated slides are the new Comic Sans. A left-bordered accent on a needlessly numberes box is about as novel as a Studio Ghibli avatar. To me this reads as: The author didn't care about the packaging, so they probably didn't care about the content either. 100

Andreas @taranetz.com · 21/04/2026I found a cool library that allows you to animate text of any font. It is called tegaki and I created a sli.dev addon for it: andreas-taranetz.github.io/slidev-addon... 110

Andreas @taranetz.com · 09/03/2026It's not a bug, it's a redesign... Am I the only one around here who notices more and more bugs in everyday software? I know this one is a minor thing that I have cause countless times myself, but some days it feels like the internet is slowly falling appart. 000
Andreas @taranetz.com · 02/03/2026Big evolutions in hardware often come with new ways of input. This is **not** one of them, but the Surface Keyboard is still a really cool feature meta dropped in the public testing channel. 010

Andreas @taranetz.com · 27/11/2025My new favorite alias: alias gho="gh pr view >/dev/null 2>&1 && gh pr view -w || gh pr create --web" If there already is a PR for your current branch, open it in the browser, if not, open the create view. It even prompts you to push your branch to the remote in case you forgot. 100

Andreas @taranetz.com · 20/11/2025Many software developers (myself included) dream of creating video games for a living. Sounds like a fantasy? Since video games are an art form, I guess what we really dream of is creating art all day. 👩🎨🖼️ Seems like a very human thing to me. 000

Andreas @taranetz.com · 08/10/2025If you ever need to figure out what's going on in your system, check the /proc folder. Aivars Kalvāns walked us through the proc filesystem and showed us where to find everything from the arguments a process was started with to its open network connections. #CloudNativeDaysAustria 000
Andreas @taranetz.com · 08/10/2025Finally a solution to the 💩 in 💩out issue all observability tools face. @dominik.suess.wtf showed us how OTel Weaver can ensure different teams use the same names and data types for the same kind of data. It uses metric defintions to generate code / docs / dashboards #CloudNativeDaysAustria 020

Andreas @taranetz.com · 08/10/2025How do you find issues that involve your service mesh's side car proxies? You need to make them less transparent and include them in your traces. Konrad Renner showed us how it's done at #CloudNativeDaysAustria 000
Andreas @taranetz.com · 08/10/2025You might not need to build your own controller for custom resources. Instead you could use KRO and its resource graph definition as @yveshwang.bsky.social showed us. #CloudNativeDaysAustria 000
Andreas @taranetz.com · 08/10/2025Day 2 of #CloudNativeDaysAustria was kicked off by @lauratacho.com She explained why DX still matters and how to communicate this to your management. Pro tip: use the venn diagram from her presentation 😉 041
Andreas @taranetz.com · 07/10/2025Today @t-sc.eu shared his learnings from karriere.at about how platform engineers can actually improve the experience for developers (especially of microservices) instead of just forcing them to learn yet another tool. #CloudNativeDaysAustria 010
Andreas @taranetz.com · 07/10/2025@adrianamvillela.bsky.social and @joshleecreates.bsky.social showed us why OTEL didn't follow the pattern of xkcd.com/927/ Great talk! It always helps to understand where the purpose of one tool ends and others need to take over. #CloudNativeDaysAustria 131
Andreas @taranetz.com · 07/10/2025Sarah Christoff gave us a nice refresher about solving deadlocks. I wouldn't have considered the resources themselves to be part of a possible solution (by requiring certain procedures to update their state) #CloudNativeDaysAustria 000

Andreas @taranetz.com · 02/12/2024When this worked, my first thought was: Go home, vitest! You're drunk. But it makes sense once you understand that the hidden option refers to elements hidden from the accessibility tree. In my case, I wanted to refer to an icon within a button. How would you have named this option? 230
