Send us Fan Mail Everyone says they have observability—but are they actually using it? In this episode, Pinja and Stefan unpack the gap between collecting data and creating real value. From DevEx and faster debugging to experimentation and business insights, observability only works when it’s treated as a product—not just a dashboard. If your observability stack feels more like noise than insight, this one’s for you.

Send us Fan Mail DevOps “culture” gets blamed for everything—so what is it, really? Pinja and Eficode consultant Dan Khurram cut through the buzzwords to define culture in practical terms: how decisions get made, what behaviors are acceptable, and how teams talk about uncertainty and failure. They compare textbook “DevOps culture” to actual corporate culture, then borrow lessons from high-stakes domains like aviation and healthcare on learning from incidents instead of hiding them. Along the ...
