I struggled to find documentation on using the Open Telemetry Collector to parse Docker logs, especially with long JSON, split over multiple lines, so thought I'd write this down. Here's how we do it: dev.37signals.com/parsing-js…

Parsing JSON-structured Docker logs with the OpenTelemetry Collector

How we use the filelog receiver’s operator chain to parse, recombine, and route JSON-structured log lines from Docker containers.

Intoxicating. I’ve been programming for 45 years, since so was 10. I’ve been a pro game coder for 33 years. Everything from hand coded assembly to UE 5.8. The paradigm shift to agentic coding is intoxicating. It is the biggest productivity jump I have ever experienced.

I wrote about a recent change to improve performance during Basecamp Rails app deploys dev.37signals.com/warming-up…

Warming up the Puma master before it forks

How we cut Basecamp 5’s post-deploy request queues by running signed-in requests through the Rails app in the Puma master, before it forks its workers.

I couldn't find the "Programmers" project in our Basecamp account at 37signals. This made me laugh out loud.

Travelling to Austin felt like travelling in a time machine to the future. Delivery robots, robotaxis, self driving cars, lots of chats about making software without reading or writing any code, and a flight home with 300+ Mbps wifi.

The constant decel messaging in Europe is insufferable as an adult, but its effect on kids is worse. As a parent, it's your obligation to counterprogram this nonsense. Show them robots, rockets, and wonders of AI. Show them cathedrals and moon landings. Instill hope in progress.

Let’s do this! Who knows what professional making will look like in 2027, but one thing’s for sure, connecting with fellow makers will be more important than ever as we navigate the transition together.

Musk, Altman and Dario are not calling for an AI frontier slowdown because they suddenly developed morals.

Do not underestimate the power of this technology. These will soon be superhuman systems that can hack anything, revolutionize any field overnight, and acquire real power and resources. We have all witnessed the progress in each of these domains, and progress is not slowing.
