Where This Story Begins In 2022, we had three different query interfaces. Logs had a custom search syntax with no autocomplete. Traces only had predefined filters - no query builder at all. Metrics had a raw PromQL input box where you'd paste queries from somewhere else and hope they worked. Each system spoke a different language. An engineer debugging a production issue had to context-switch not just between data types, but between entirely different mental models of how to query data. When

What Are Traces and Spans in OpenTelemetry?

Metrics tell you what changed. Logs tell you why something happened. Traces tell you where time was spent and how a request moved across your system. At the heart of distributed tracing in OpenTelemetry are two core concepts: Trace : The full journey of one request / transaction across services. : The full journey of one request / transaction across services.

NASA plans to build a nuclear reactor on the Moon—a space lawyer explains why

The first space race was about flags and footprints. Now, decades later, landing on the Moon is old news. The new race is to build there, and doing so hinges on power. In April 2025, China reportedly unveiled plans to build a nuclear power plant on the Moon by 2035. This plant would support its planned international lunar research station. The United States countered in August, when acting NASA Administrator Sean Duffy reportedly suggested a US reactor would be operational on the Moon by 2030.

There is no memory safety without thread safety

There is no memory safety without thread safety Memory safety is all the rage these days. But what does the term even mean? That turns out to be harder to nail down than you may think. Typically, people use this term to refer to languages that make sure that there are no use-after-free or out-of-bounds memory accesses in the program. This is then often seen as distinct from other notions of safety such as thread safety, which refers to programs that do not have certain kinds of concurrency bugs
