Sup!
This weekend I spent on the kayak tour. So, this digest comes out a little bit later than usual.
Charity
My wife is raising funds for 18 complete medical kits for the 27th battalion of the 67th brigade of the AFU. The monetary goal is 150 000 UAH (~3700 EUR). Currently, a bit more than 2/3 is there. You can donate on the monobank jar or to the card directly: 5375 4112 0823 3556
Another place to donate for medical equipment is the UA Responders foundation
Time Sensitive
7 days left until the Microsoft Certification Bundle is available on Humble Bundle!
Voice Chat
Finally, I finished editing a new episode of our voice chat. This time we spoke about observability: vendors, problems that we encountered, SLO/SLA, and synthetic monitoring.
The recording is available in Ukrainian. You can „watch“ it on YouTube:
