About this blog

A vanity project is a creative work, business venture, or endeavor driven by an individual’s ego rather than artistic merit or commercial viability. Often funded or produced by the person in charge, these projects frequently result in critical or financial failure, serving as a monument to the creator’s narcissism.

I’m Willie Wheeler, and this is a reboot of my personal blog. Mostly technical stuff that I’m working on. It’s currently observability-related, but I have lots of interests, so over time I’ll write about other things too.

The writing is mine, not an LLM’s, other than incorporating editorial feedback.

The diagrams and code, on the other hand, are much more a joint effort between myself and our robot overlords. Whom I, for one, otel-demo.jsonwelcome.


He ALWAYS said thank you.
