Stop watching the looms: why the AI era belongs to infrastructure

Apr 28, 2026 By Upsun In Upsun
I live in Manchester, England now. I moved here from Texas last summer (which is its own story), but the thing I wasn't prepared for is how the Industrial Revolution isn't history here. It's the city itself. And if you're American like me, you might need to hear this: the Industrial Revolution didn't start in the US. It started here. Manchester is where the modern world was born. You see it everywhere. The old cotton mills converted into apartments.

Monitoring Sidekiq Job Performance with AppSignal

Apr 28, 2026 By Muhammed Ali In AppSignal
When my Sidekiq job starts failing or slowing down, I often feel frustrated, especially if I don’t know how to fix it. If you’re using Sidekiq to run your background jobs, you know what I’m talking about. It’s a vital element of your stack, handling everything from data exports to password reset requests. It runs silently in the background, and most of the time, you’re not even giving it a second thought.

Who's on call? How Claude helped us calculate this 2,500x faster

Apr 28, 2026 By Article In Incident.io
Schedules are a core part of any on-call system. In ours, they define who to page and when. But people use them in lots of other ways too: checking their next shift, asking for cover while at the gym, keeping a Slack user group up to date, or updating a Linear triage responsibility. For many of our customers, they’re one of the main ways they interact with our product, and as they’re such a foundational part of On-call, it’s very important they work well.

Ask Cortex anything, right from Slack

Apr 28, 2026 By Cortex In Cortex
The Monday morning thread. Someone asks who owns checkout-service. Someone else asks what changed in the Production Readiness Scorecard last week. A third person wants to know if the Kubernetes migration is blocking the launch next Thursday. The answers exist. They live in Cortex. But getting them into the thread means someone stops what they're doing, opens a tab, finds the data, and pastes it back. By the time they do, the conversation has moved on.

Todd's Tenth Rule of certificate automation

Apr 28, 2026 By Todd H. Gardner In CertKit
I’m an old engineer at heart. Many of my ideals were formed by Joel’s Things You Should Never Do, Fred’s No Silver Bullet, and Brian’s Big Ball of Mud. One of my favorites was Greenspun’s Tenth Rule: The joke isn’t really about programming languages. It’s about a pattern: certain problems have a shape, and no matter how you approach them, you end up building the same solution, in the same order, until you arrive at the same messy place.

When Offshore Software Development Makes Sense (and When It Doesn't)

Apr 28, 2026 By OpsMatters In OpsMatters
Offshore development isn't a universal solution, and treating it like one is how companies end up with cautionary tales instead of successful products. The decision to go offshore should be strategic - based on your specific circumstances rather than the generic promise of "same quality at lower cost" that every vendor website offers. This article provides an honest framework for deciding whether offshore development fits your situation - and equally important, when it doesn't.

Why Some Businesses Feel Effortless to Deal With (And Others Don't)

Why Some Businesses Feel Effortless to Deal With (And Others Don't)

Apr 28, 2026 By OpsMatters In OpsMatters
You've probably experienced both sides of this. One business feels easy from the start. You find what you need, get quick answers, and everything just works. No friction, no confusion. Another business? Same product, similar pricing-but somehow it's frustrating. Slow replies, unclear steps, small annoyances that add up. It's rarely about the product itself.
