Getting past self-doubt as tech product communicators (In conversation with Kelsey Hightower about the buzz around Cloud Native and SRE)

As product designers and writers are expected to reduce their users' cognitive load and articulate a product's efficacy without leaking unnecessary technical details, the first question that tends to pop up is: How do we address the needs of our technical and non-technical audience at the same time without we feeling overwhelmed? We cannot learn everything that we need to about some shiny new object in tech at such short notice. So, how do we ensure that our users get the outcomes that help them move forward at a pace that feel's right to them? This conversation with Kelsey Hightower is from 2020 when the cloud-native landscape and SRE were getting too hot to handle. The tech's probably gotten more befuddling, but Kelsey's thoughts still ring true.

The Frazden school of boundless joy turns 106

Mun Suomeni: Hyvää Itsenäisyyspäivää! The second episode of season 2 is hosted by Aaranya Susipetonen, an ex-MeriPelle (SAR Systems) who was a student of David Bohm and Newt Scamander. She has a doctorate in Magizoology and has written a textbook on Thestrals and Occamies. She is currently in Sodankylä (Lapland) to write her second textbook. As we celebrate the 106th founding day of Frazden, Aaranya shares the origins of the four houses of our SARtastic beasts (MeriPelle, MeriKotka, MeriMies, and MeriMetso). Note: This is a work of fiction, so everything herein is imaginary with some dangling facts. To use Kate Wolf's songs, see ⁠⁠Using a Kate Wolf song⁠⁠. This episode was edited in July 2024 to include a few seconds of a Kate Wolf song: Back Roads (1975). You might hear your host croaking Minun Suomeni somewhere during this episode. Karaoke music by Päivi Pulkkinen.

The deathly hallows at Old Crow and self-inquiry with Prof. Wanderson

In this episode of season 2, Aaranya Susipetonen questions Prof. Scamander about misdirecting her research on Occamies and Thestrals when she was at Old Crow, YT. A long explanation ensues about Copernicus' prediction related to the chief healer and the founders of the Frazden school. Aaranya learns about Prof. Wanderson, the founder of the MeriMies house, and his immense contribution to the muggle and magical world. MeriPelle gets a spot award (100 points), so you might hear a few seconds of the house song, Pohjola by Olli Halonen. As this episode is about the founder of the MeriMies house, you will also hear a few seconds of their house song (Mä en pelkää by Lauri Tähkä). The episode ends with Prof. Scamander requesting Aaranya to read a few pages from Prof. Wanderson's 1994 paper. Note: This podcast is a work of fiction with some random facts, and you might hear your host croaking often.

Northern trails of Newfoundland and Labrador with WJ Long

In the last episode, Aaranya Susipetonen introduced us to the founder of the MeriKotka house (DJ Bohm). In this episode, she looks back at how the founder of her MeriPelle house explored the trails of Wayeeses in the far north. As she reads an excerpt from his book, Northern Trails (1905), she admires the courage of her MeriPelle founder to stand alone and view Wayeeses through a different lens. For those interested in the wolves of Labrador, Aaranya recommends a documentary by Andrew Manske. Note: This podcast is a work of fiction with some random facts, and you might hear Aaranya singing the theme song of her MeriPelle house (Pohjola by Olli Halonen).

Copernicus’ couplet revelation by Prof. Tahtiavain

[Some content in French] Scene 7 starts with one side of a conversation between Prof. Tahtiavain and Ogilvie. It’s a tough year for Ogilvie because he is grieving the loss of his youngest son, who died in Jan 1895. Despite the pain, Ogilvie must return to the Yukon in Oct 1895. Will he be able to travel with Prof. Tahtiavain in Dec? Fast forward to 1976 where Aaranya is reading an 1898 report by Ogilvie that’s written in French. She had read an 1899 report by Arthur St. Cyr, but that was an easy read because the paper was in English. Aaranya is obviously struggling and mispronouncing so many words that native French speakers probably want her to stop reading. Before Ogilvie’s report, she had started reading Les Anciens Canadiens par Philippe Aubert de Gaspé, but she was able to get to only some part of a verse on the title page – that’s what you hear at the start of this episode. She will read this book someday. Scene 8 is a brief conversation between Prof. Scamander and Aaranya. After this conversation, Aaranya takes a break from French by revisiting two papers by Tempelman-Kluit (1979 and 2012) before her trek to Mount St. Cyr, northwest of Quiet Lake. Aaranya is referring to the following resources: Evidence of arc-continent collision (Tempelman-Kluit, 1979) Geology of quiet lake and Finlayson lake map areas (Tempelman-Kluit, 2012) Guide officiel du Klondike: Le grand champ d'or du Canada, le district du Yukon (Ogilvie, 1898) Les anciens canadiens par Philippe Aubert de Gaspé (1877) Note: This is a work of fiction, so everything herein is imaginary with some dangling facts. This is a MeriPelle episode, so you will hear a few seconds of the house song (Pohjola by Olli Halonen). As always, expect Aaranya to croak again - background help from this YouTube video (O Canada in French) Almost six months since Frazer enfolded...

Wildfire burn scars (In conversation with James Banting and Natalia Domarad from Sparkgeo about the 2021 wildfires and flood damage in BC, Canada)

Some weeks ago, Sparkgeo released a storymap that linked the 2021 Abbotsford (British Columbia, Canada) flood event with the wildfires that hit the province early last year. Your host, Letty, had an opportunity to speak with two members of the research team (James Banting and Natalia Domarad) that released the storymap. This conversation was scheduled in April (soon after the release of the storymap) and recorded on May 13. Here's what to expect in this episode: 00:00 Letty introducing our guests and the topic of discussion 04:00 Questions Letty asked them about the wildfires and the flood event 08:04 Natalia's background in fluvial geomorphology and the significance of burn scars 12:04 The use of satellite imagery, Canada's upcoming wildfire monitoring satellite system (WildFireSat), and the research implications for first responders and insurance companies 15:20 How do the underlying datasets impact such research efforts and the need for data preparation/validation 22:50 What was the public reaction after the release of the wildfire and flood damage storymap. Sparkgeo's effort toward science communication that is easy to grasp and apply by people who need this information to better prepare for such emergencies. 25:30 What other research efforts are brewing at Sparkgeo (cloud-native vector formats and coral reef research) 27:00 A key message from our guests and potential micro contributions toward Earth stewardship 32:00 Self-education about our changing planet - papers we can read Papers on Letty's desk Trends in wildfire burn severity across Canada, 1985 to 2015 Echolocation call structure and intensity in five species of insectivorous bats The right to burn: barriers and opportunities for Indigenous-led fire stewardship in Canada This story on Youtube: Deep Dive (Wildfires and Flood Damage)

Thestral wings near the Quiet Lake batholith and the Yukon-Tanana terrane

In this episode of season 2, Prof. Scamander is curious how Aaranya knew where to find the next clue related to the deathly hallows. She thanks Prof. Longbottom and Ted Irving for this paleomagnetic clue near the Quiet Lake batholith and the Yukon-Tanana terrane. Aaranya reads a 1976 paper to get a sense of the stratigraphy of the area and start exploring the anomalies in the Pelly mountains. As this is a fictional setup, expect Aaranya to go on a tangent to set the stage for the next few episodes. Also, this is a MeriPelle episode, so you will hear a few seconds of the house song (Pohjola by Olli Halonen). Aaranya is referring to the following papers: Whence British Columbia by Ted Irving (1985) Yellowstone in Yukon⁠ by Prof. Johnston (1996) The Baja BC series by Prof. Nick Zentner (2022 - 2023) Geological Survey of Canada (Report 1A, 1976)⁠ | See page 112 for the paper on the Pelly mountains | Tempelman-Kluit, D. J., Gordey, S. P. & Read, B. C. (1976). Stratigraphic and structural studies in the Pelly Mountains, Yukon Territory. Geological Survey of Canada, Paper, 76-1A, 97-106. https://doi.org/10.4095/104174

The chosen rock and the East Pond gneiss

This is part III of the tale of two prehistoric oceans and the chosen rock. Prof. Scamander’s 101st birthday is in less than two months, and Aaranya Susipetonen has not yet solved his puzzle about the East Pond gneiss. She fears that she might have to destroy the clue that Prof. Scamander found 78 years ago. So, Jalo Monivilja, an expert on eclogites and a renowned geologist from Newfoundland and Labrador, is helping her make the connection. Aaranya is juggling three conflicting priorities: Her figure skating practice in preparation for the 1998 Winter Olympics, her final assignment at Rougemont (Québec) to secure her research position in the Yukon, and the rescue attempt to release Prof. Scamander's pet occamy, Ouroboros, from the muggle brain. She cannot chase all three at the same time, so which one will she let go? As Aaranya is on a field trip with Jalo to Chibougamau (Québec), she is not reading any research papers in this episode. However, one abstract published in 1990 makes its way because of a conversation between Prof. Scamander and Aaranya many moons ago. Some papers mentioned in this episode are as follows: Eclogite with biotite porphyroblasts—Which conditions are responsible for their formation? An example from the northern Fleur-de-Lys Supergroup, Newfoundland, Canada (Masonne, 2024) CO2 Storage Potential of Basaltic Rocks Offshore Iceland (Carbfix, 2016) Advances in satellite alteration mineral mapping for gold and silver deposits (PhotoSat, 2018) Petrography of Mounts Saint-Bruno and Rougemont (Philpotts, 1976) Note: This is a work of fiction, so everything herein is imaginary with some dangling facts. To use Kate Wolf's songs, see ⁠Using a Kate Wolf song⁠. In this episode, you will hear a few seconds of two songs by Kate Wolf: Like a River (1980) and Old Jerome (1983). 283 since Frazer enfolded...

O11yfest (p)reactions

A (p)reaction video is a short ( 5min) summary of what you think is meaningful for others to pay attention to about another video or presentation by someone else. Letty is a member of o11yfest, and she was inspired by Stephen Townshend's (p)reaction video so much that she decided to do an episode on what she found meaningful about a few talks. Only the first segment of this episode is a real (p)reaction because it is under five minutes! The other two segments are almost a running commentary ;) Here's what to expect in this episode: 00:00 A 3.5-minute (p)reaction on Ricardo Ferreira's talk: Building Software Reliability with Distributed Tracing 03:54 An almost 10-minute (p)reaction on Stephen Townshend's talk: Bad Observability 13:39 A running commentary on Christopher Evans' talk: Observability is not just for your systems (it's for your team and incidents as well) 26:43 A common denominator that seems to be underscoring the world of observability (Dave Snowden's Cynefin framework) 29:00 Letty talking about her two podcasts (this one and Arctic HOWLs), her past role of a Flood Product Owner, and her micro-attempt to bring together the bubbles of earth observation, cloud-native infrastructure, and observability
