Curious how you run things and have good work life balance for your employees, with so few people? Especially with the migration to k8s. K8s is much more complex than Heroku, some …

Anyone know how this compares with stackgres and cloudnative-pg? Looks like this supports mysql and mongodb, which the others don't.

Sure you can use an AWS ASG, but I assume you also tie that into an AWS AlB/NLB. Then you use ACM for certs and now you are locked in to AWS times 3. Instead you can do those 3 and…

I think what they should have said is "there isn't a tool like Helm for ECS" If you want to deploy a full prometheus, grafana, alertmanager, etc stack on ECS, good luck with that, …

It doesn't have to be that way though. You can use the AWS ingress controller, or you can use ingress-nginx. You can use external secrets operator and tie it into AWS Secrets manag…

I agree with this somewhat. The other day I was driving home and I saw a sprinkler head and broke on the side of the road and was spraying water everywhere. It made me think, why a…

k8s is complex, if you don't need the following you probably shouldn't use it: * Service discovery * Auto bin packing * Load Balancing * Automated rollouts and rollbacks * Horizona…

Helm Charts and Terraform are different things IMO. Terraform is better used to deploying cloud resources (s3 bucket, EKS cluster, EKS workers, RDS, etc). Sure you can manage your …

Most people on Nostr are pro Bitcoin, not pro cryptocurrency. Bitcoin and crypto are not the same. There have been tons of scams in crypto, but not in Bitcoin. Sure there were peop…

This has been my experience as well. e.g. if you read anything on your local cities subreddit you will think everyone in the city is left leaning. You will think that anyone who is…

Very cool stuff. This type of life is why I originally got into tech. Few thoughts: - I wish this guy had a personal blog that I could subscribe to. I like that post, but I could c…

All the cloud providers offer a storage class for k8s. The storage class allows you to tell k8s that you want a persistent volume (PV) and it will make API calls to the cloud provi…

IME yes, yes it is. I usually tell people running a k8s cluster is similar to running your own "cloud". If you want to just deploy an EC2 instance you just tell AWS you want an EC2…

> ...the problem arises immediately when you try to resize a data volume and you can't because the API doesn't support it What API doesn't support it? k8s has support for resizing …

This seems to be the common advise given, but I don't fully agree. There have been many times in my career where a DB was on a VM with the storage attached via a cloud providers bl…

Proxmox already has clusters that allows you to live migrate VMs between nodes.

How do you like this setup? I've been thinking of moving from docker-compose to podman, specifically using the [podman-play-kube]( https://docs.podman.io/en/v4.2/markdown/podman-pl…

I'm sad there isn't any talk about nostr on here. Even if Reddit dies and everyone moves to Lemmy or some other alternative it's only a matter of time before something similar happ…

Maybe they can find a local Hackerspace that will help get a better dev environment setup? If the have tech skills I would think they could get a basic job easily.

Generally curious, how are trans people loosing access to health care in red states?

How many servers do you have on this setup? How do you handle persistent storage with docker swarm?

What phone do you have that has a battery that big?

Thing that kills the dells is soldered on ram. Framework is much better than any of these dells and usually cheaper.

How is ceph on the RPIs?
