The Stack Overflow Podcast - Bringing context to alerting and incident management

SPONSORED BY FIREHYDRANT

While FireHydrant is mostly known for their incident management software, they’re introducing Signals to modernize alerting and consolidate it with incident management. 

FireHydrant was born out of an incident where a database was dropped at 5:30pm on a Friday right before network maintenance started. It also led to Robert’s social media handle, Bobby Tables. 

This one time…at band camp…Robert got paged in the middle of trumpet practice…on his sabbatical.

Congrats to Great Question badge winner timdim for asking How can I flush GPU memory using CUDA (physical reset is unavailable)?. 100 people thought it was worth voting for.

Hayek Program Podcast - Emma Rothschild — 2023 Markets & Society Conference Keynote

We're celebrating 300 years of Adam Smith! On this episode of the Hayek Program Podcast, we'll hear a keynote from the 2023 Markets & Society conference given by Emma Rothschild, the Jeremy and Jane Knowles Professor of History at Harvard University. In this lecture, Emma Rothschild begins by building an understanding of Adam Smith's conception of markets. She reanalyzes Smith's "invisible hand" metaphor, challenging the traditional interpretation and suggesting that it might not primarily refer to markets or economic equilibrium but rather the economics of uncertainty and trust. Emma also discusses Frank Knight, F.A. Hayek, Smith's frustration with the frivolity of markets, the abolition of feudalism, the four bad markets, Smith's hope for the future, and more.

This lecture is part of the University of Glasgow’s Smith@300: Celebrating Adam Smith as Scholar, Educator, and Citizen supported by the John Templeton Foundation.

The introduction is given by Craig Smith.

Lost Debate - Biden v. Netanyahu, Teetering Ukraine

President Biden issued an unexpected rebuke of Prime Minister Netanyahu and the state of Israel on Tuesday, condemning its military actions and warning that the government must change in order to maintain U.S. support. Tangle’s Isaac Saul joins Ravi to discuss this new development and the broader state of the war.

We then turn to Ukraine, where all eyes are on President Zelensky’s meetings in Washington this week. As Zelensky pleads his case for additional funding, Ravi and Isaac discuss how internal American politics have influenced funding negotiations and the consequences that could come if lawmakers choose to end support.

Consider This from NPR - Zelenskyy’s Pitch for More American Dollars

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy spent Tuesday in Washington pressing American lawmakers to approve a new funding package for his country's war with Russia.

Zelenskyy's lobbying effort comes as the current U.S. aid package is rapidly dwindling, and the fight between Ukraine and Russia has all but stalled.

NPR's Mary Louise Kelly talks to NPR Pentagon Correspondent Tom Bowman about the state of the war, what new funding would be used for, and what the country can – and can't – do without more money.
