Airbnb cancels product management (no)
Brian Chesky, Airbnb co-founder, led a talk at Figma's Config23 conference, where he announced that Airbnb ends product management function. Social media blew up, but after watching the talk it turned out that it was just an org restructure where product management is merged with the product marketing team, ensuring that PMs are accountable for the whole product.

The founders guide to developer-led growth
At Percona we build products for DBAs, operations teams and developers. Developer-led growth in simple terms is just a way to build products that developers would love and tell their colleagues and friends about. I believe it must be a strong combination of product-led growth and developer-first thinking.

NASDAQ sees early indications of a tech recovery
Positive news from NASDAQ. We possibly see early innings of a tech recovery. Looking at semiconductors and then SaaS companies' earnings they see some light. Maybe it is over positive to ignore recession risks.

CoDi: any-to-any generation
If you are a bit interested in AI, you might have heard about Stable Diffusion. It is one of the most popular text-to-image models. CoDi stands for Composable Diffusion. It is a model that allows you to generate any combination of output modalities, such as language, image, video, or audio, from any combination of input modalities. Pure magic.

Red Hat strikes again - now hiding RHEL source code
We at Percona take open source commitments seriously. Everything that we ship to our customers is open source and we intend to keep it this way. Red Hat decided to break their promise and move RedHat Enterprise Linux (RHEL) source code behind the customer portal. Ugly move made a lot of noise in the community, but I don't expect RH to bail out. I hope various RHEL-derivatives, like Rocky and Alma, would find a way to thrive. Seems like Rocky Linux found a way - see the "Keeping Open Source Open" article in their blog.
