Yes, this is unfortunate. But I am not primarily invested in "observability" as a successful marketing term for honeycomb. I am invested in observability as a technical term that has meaning, that usefully describes a category of hard problems in the space.https://twitter.com/dkalintsev/status/1043403123132391424 …
Oh yes. I was speaking a slightly edgy truth about what tech people want to read but genuinely feel that you're super engaging because you're clearly interested in your work and not faking anything and that this is the best marketing.

well thanks, i appreciate it. i have always done tech out of rage. it has been a shock and sadness to me that once I started building a service for my peers, some slice of them get super cynical and say i'm just shilling. i'm trying to push the industry forward dammit.

everyone engages in motivated reasoning -- everyone! and everybody has a customer that they have to sell to. engineers who work at non-software-vendors do too, it's just a layer or two of abstraction away. annoying.
