The blog post mentions "P99 of ~1s of producer-to-consumer latency". What about just producer latency i.e. message successfully received into the queue ready to be picked up? S3 writes seem be in the low 100s of ms so I assume that's part of the quoted end-to-end latency.

I'm tracking >200 betas for devtools, infra, & cloud projects at https://console.dev/betas/
You can get the feed via https://console.dev/betas/rss.xml and the 4-5 most interesting go into a weekly newsletter at https://console.dev/latest/

We've been featuring 3 devtools companies that are hiring for technical roles in the weekly https://console.dev/ newsletter since the start of this year. It's been seeing some very good click -> application rates.
We're now in the process of building out profiles on the website and are working with the companies to add interesting details about things like dev processes, tools used, tech stack, how planning works, how on-call works, etc.
Bit different from what SO does/did with our devtools focus. Our inspiration is the Joel Test, if anyone remembers that! https://www.joelonsoftware.com/2000/08/09/the-joel-test-12-s...

The story behind Svix and how the idea developed following Tom's work on the end-to-end encrypted backend product EteSync and Etebase is interesting, and something I covered with him in an interview last month:
