Emily Freeman joins the show alongside our Ship It co-host, Justin Garrison! We hear Emily's burnout story & learn how she and Forrest Brazeal are putting tech-focused influencers on tap. But first: area code turf wars, bad movie reboots & buying used DVDs... at Starbucks?!
Full Episode
Welcome to ChangeLog and Friends, a weekly talk show about area code turf wars. Big thanks to our partners at Fly.io. Over 3 million apps have launched on Fly. You can too in less than five minutes. Learn how at Fly.io. Okay, let's talk.
Hey friends, I'm here with Dave Rosenthal, CTO of Sentry. So Dave, I know lots of developers know about Sentry, know about the platform, because hey, we use Sentry and we love Sentry. And I know tracing is one of the next big frontiers for Sentry. Why add tracing to the platform? Why tracing and why now?
When we first launched the ability to collect tracing data, we were really emphasizing the performance aspect of that, the kind of application performance monitoring aspect. Because you have these things that are spans that measure how long something takes.
And so the natural thing is to try to graph their durations and think about their durations and warn somebody if the durations are getting too long. But what we've realized is that the performance stuff ends up being just a bunch of gauges to look at. And it's not super actionable.
Sentry is all about this notion of debug ability and actually making it easier to fix the problem, not just sort of giving you more gauges. A lot of what we're trying to do now is focus a little bit less on the sort of just the performance monitoring side of things and turn tracing into a tool that actually aids the debug ability of problems.
I love it. Okay, so they mean it when they say code breaks. Fix it faster with Sentry. More than 100,000 growing teams use Sentry to find problems fast, and you can too. Learn more at Sentry.io. That's S-E-N-T-R-Y.io. And use our code CHANGELOG. Get $100 off the team plan. That's almost four months free for you to try out Sentry. Once again, Sentry.io.
Well, we are here with our good friend and Ship It co-host, Justin Garrison. Hey, man. How are you? Hey. What's up? How's it going? It's going well. You know, three-day weekend. Back at it. No complaints. No complaints.
I'm tired. I mean, that's the complaint. Okay.
I mean, I'm sure I could complain if you asked me to.
