Reviews

4.9 out of 5 stars from 63 ratings
  • Love the guests but hosts could cool it a bit with the off topic jokes

    I listened to the bluesky episode and there were just too many interjections from the hosts to interrupt the conversation at hand.

    Your personality adds levity which is appreciated but it was a bit too in your face. Just let the guest talk! Thanks for the great content otherwise

Motivated to Learn with Adriana Villela
Q: How did you get involved in OTel and observability and everything?
