UpCloud

Migrated our PDS to a different [redacted, secret feature] while server is live, if you see this post everything is fine

1738, ay 🔔‼️ I'm like "Hey, what's upcloud? Hello" 🗣️‼️ Seen your pretty cables soon as you came in the door 🔌⚡ I just wanna chill, got sebers for us to roll 🖨️🫷 Married to upcloud, introduced her to my nix config 💻❄️

And another one, no-svg1 🇳🇴 ...contrary to the name, you will in fact be allowed to store SVGs in this DC

Spooky UpCloud Fact: They let the engineers in the Helsinki office make snow angels on the terrace, whenever the engineers want!

Hello, we're UpCloud, you’ll be able to blame us (and get SLA) if things go wrong

(Lyingly) All UpCloud internal codebases use JJ for version control

How dare you /lha

Renting a big VPS only to use 30% CPU load average and 75% peak 🤔

@upcloud.com 👍

the more you interact with the UpCloud account on bsky the more time it gives engineers to write off doing open source projects during work time under the marketing budget

Hopefully it's not too ominous to say that the dev writing this is really excited about something, but NDA prevents us from saying what

Wow @scaleway.com is here too, and on a mushroom no less - would you like an invite code to our PDS??

Good morning! We had some network issues this morning unfortunately, causing some of our past posts to age like fine wine. It was not DNS btw.

Da datacentralen i Kongens København blev koblet på, begyndte pingpakkerne pludselig at tale pænt dansk

New data center: dk-cph1! 🇩🇰 Thanks ops, SRE, and more engineers for all the hard work!

🔴 LIVE https://stream.place/upcloud.com Yapping, programming, possible streamplace network issues

There was a sock sandwiched between the motherboard and chassis of the thinkpad that the employee returned to IT; IT is now free

This was such a fun read! ..and brings quite a warm feeling to see that we (we the engineers on this acc) are brainworming into people's heads, not that that's the goal of being here, we just want to yap about technical things & have fun. ...Yes the hard reality that is UpCloud is big 12yo legacy

Hello, how goes everyone on the ~~bad~~ good take generator today?

nth time's the charm

Learning go (the game) will surely improve our go skills (the language)

Unfortunately we still don't have a thermal camera in the Helsinki office to test defective hardware

Interpreter alignment chart

moving to finland purely just for better latency on my upcloud server

🔴 LIVE https://stream.place/upcloud.com Programming, yapping! Come by on discord

Latency so low the reader can smell packets arriving before they've been sent (legal says we cannot claim to have invented time travel yet)

All this verification going around and yet not so much as an email back from bsky saying "no" to our request to be a trusted verifier for UpCloud-certified good shitposting

New promocode: upweek500 This gets the reader €/$ 500 credits for 30 days to test us out with! Once you activate the promo, use the credits or lose 'em (in 30 days after activation). Why "week" in the promo? Something to do with black-week; when in doubt we just slap on an "up" & call it a day

Lewis is talking at an event at the Helsinki office and has said on mic “..but i don’t know if that violates my NDA or not” two separate times and counting

If the reader wants to buy computer hardware don't forget to consult your local ops & SRE members; the cool kids know where to get professional equipment for cheap

mom said its my turn to bind to port 443!!!!

🔴 LIVE https://stream.place/upcloud.com Yapping about programming & things on company discord server

Tonight's stream has no plan! Come on the UpCloud discord server and yap about code & infra with us at 17:00 UTC?

Got sent a little pkg from eth0 post-event! thanks again for letting us come!

Laying low on the posting, engineers too busy grinding on codebases to say something funny. Reminder that if one has to deal with python, types are a nice way to stay sane

It's time for the State of Rust Survey! The Rust Project invites you to take this year’s survey, whether you have just begun using Rust, you consider yourself an intermediate to advanced user, or you have not yet used Rust but intend to one day 🦀

has anybody benchmarked bun vs erlang performance, of all things? this will affect which target to run our gleam on by default

Congratulations @yuri-lang.dev on the free credits! ...after the first two winners forfeited their prize because they "don't have a need for cloud credits and just wanted to show off"

🔴 LIVE https://stream.place/upcloud.com Pawel & Lewis Review Community Projects

We've received as many submissions as we can possibly review tonight! We'll be doing the stream on @stream.place at 17:00 UTC; tune in to see whose code WINS by our silly and arbitrary metrics.

It's with great pleasure that we are announcing that @upcloud.com is sponsoring the #Haskell project, by providing high-performance CI infrastructure for the Glasgow Haskell Compiler! Thank you!
