Most engineers instrument spans. Far fewer think about whether those #spans are actually useful. If your traces are noisy, inconsistent, or missing context, they stop being debugging tools and become expensive timelines. New deep dive on #OpenTelemetry spans 👇 eu1.hubs.ly/H0vbkqB0

Ever notice how every project now “supports #OpenTelemetry”? 🤔 There’s a big gap between exporting a few #spans and real, production-grade #telemetry. In the Code RED Newsletter, @[email protected] breaks down what OTel maturity actually looks like. 👉 eu1.hubs.ly/H0tCtFK0

I'm the author of Latlearn, a FOSS lib for Golang that enables custom latency instrum & reporting

* enables dyn adj's at runtime to boost QoS
* variant span groups
* <76 ns overhead

must raise $ to support doing MORE work to ADD features. hard skilled work & cannot sustain that UNPAID
