What it does
Parca is a continuous profiling project for applications and infrastructure. It helps you save money, improve performance and understand incidents better.
Open Source infrastructure-wide continuous profiling
You never know at which point in time you are going to need profiling data, so always collect it at low overhead. Many organizations have 20-30% of resources wasted in easily optimized code paths. The Parca Agent aims to lower the bar of starting to profile by requiring zero-instrumentation for the whole infrastructure. Deploy in your infrastructure and get started! Using profiling data collected over time, Parca can (with confidence and statistical significance) determine hot paths to optimize. Additionally, it can show differences between any query, such as comparing versions of software or any other dimension. Profiling data provides unique insight and depth into what code a process…from parca.dev

Talanoa▲346Hi HN, I’m a fullstack developer, and honestly, I’ve lost count of how many side projects I’ve worked on over the years. But one idea kept coming back to me: a different kind of email client. It first came to me in 2014: “What if we could handle emails more like conversations?” Every year, I’d revisit this concept in my “Build Notes.” Ten years later, no one had built exactly what I had in mind — so I finally decided to do it myself. That’s how Talanoa was born. I wanted something focused on people, not timelines. I was tired of marking messages as unread just to remember to reply later, or…
