Btw, if you are interested in distributed tracing, including the W3C and opentelemetry, we blog a weekly roundup about it here: https://lightstep.com/blog/category/distributed-tracing/

Actually, OpenTelemetry is compatible with OpenTracing, so the boom is still relevant. The distributed tracing APIs are very similar, but OpenTelemtry also includes metrics.

Thanks for rooting! I’m sorry it looks confusing. It took several iterations for the humans to converge on a single project, and achieve something like consensus about what we wanted. But it feels like we are there - there’s ~100 working on

Yeah, it’s all getting stitched together. I would expect v1.0 of OpenTelemetry coming in March, with W3C Trace-Context headers as the default format for context propagation.

This is not true. I don’t like having my health care tied to my job - they are orthogonal concerns. But in the US, your employer does not have access to your healthcare records.

Imho, the interest is less about convenience, and more about reducing employment (fedex/amazon’s interest), combined with alphabet doing its reflexive moonshot thing. There isn’t a huge consumer demand for drones; like google glass, I

I suspect that fb is dialing back their ambitions with libra, to something that is more like a regular money transfer service. PayPal and other partners would naturally be less interested in that; it’s just more competition.

I posted this article because I found precise mobile tracking such as this to be a genuine privacy violation. IMHO, this is much more invasive that passively tracking web activity.

Hi Mycoliza! One of the authors of OpenTelemetry here. It would be great to see an OpenTelemetry implementation in Rust. If you're interested in bootstrapping a group to work on that, please let me know!

The article only mentions Android. Does anyone know what the process is for iPhones at the border?

Hi all! Author here; happy to answer any questions about the OpenTelemetry merger.

Contracts aside there’s a real issue: the human is there primarily to deal with other humans and all the random issues that pop up (which, as a regular bart rider, I assure you are plentiful). You could shift the model around and maybe have

This gets at my concern though - it is not that we don’t know how to build skyscrapers safely. It is that there is now positive evidence that those construction and engineering techniques are not being applied properly, at least in some cas

Yes!! We are very interested in resolving these API differences. In my opinion OpenCensus is great and if it could become the “standard” client for OpenTracing it would make me really happy.

If you’re interested in getting involved, we’re kicking off a documentation overhaul and looking for language maintainers (especially ruby), come say hi in our gitter channel if you’re interested or have any questions! https://gi

One of the big arguments against public transit is that it's infeasible to dig tunnels. If this project succeeds, I wonder what kind of contorted logic will arise, arguing that digging tunnels for cars is feasible, but digging tunnels

I'm not sure that the person you're responding to is advocating for guns. They are just pointing out that violent people don't stop being violent just because guns are removed from the picture. For example, handguns and other

I recommend separating collection from instrumentation. Always instrument at the source, so that you can instrument the flow of your entire application. If the caller decides there is something about the code flow that is worth recording, i

The most common problem is that code executing at that point can hang in unexpected ways, preventing shutdown. It's a real bummer when that happens. I've even seen it happen with logging written the wrong way, where the code attem

I totally agree, there's no need to log that you bubbled an error. My recommendation is to have the function that generates the error also log it internally. That way, you don't need to log any returned errors at all, unless you a
