Works for me!

Ceci n'est pas une pipe.

I guess the people not complaining here are the ones who do not immediately upgrade production to latest non-security releases?

That looks great! Will give it a spin during my daily work. Thanks for making and sharing it.

Depends on what you are monitoring but let's assume an API endpoint. Collect and monitor the RED metrics with detailed dimensions in combination with blackbox monitoring simulating…

Some years ago I owned a Mercedes CLA which had Android auto controlled using the rotating joystick with push down to select. The experience was perfect. It was fast, could be hand…

I run Linux. If there's something I'm missing out because of that, then I accept it rather than going through this hell.

red tape, regulations, corruption, low pay, inflated prices, a gamed system. Although the topic is unrelated, I came across this the other day ... makes one think https://youtu.be/…

Generally speaking, the value of these contributions was determined by "proof of work". Time and effort are precious to a human hence its a somewhat self-regulating system preventi…

Beautiful! Nice work.

Be it as it may, its aesthetics are so distinct it isn't for everybody. Also a big part of the target audience expecting to buy an utility vehicle have cheaper, proven and more pra…

Its not Github Actions' fault but the horrors people create in it, all under the pretense that automation is simply about wrapping a GitHub Action around something. Learn to create…

Its simple. If you require specific software which only runs on Windows, then you cannot use Linux. If that's not the case, the Linux desktop these days is entirely capable of help…

Well ... IMO this is literally replacing (entry-level) engineers, but lets agree to disagree on that. Be it as it may ... task automation is also "a product" then not? 5 years ago,…

At work, I was involved in a project where a large number of individual tasks defined as declarative code had to be translated into JS based equivalents. Due to the unpredictabilit…

it is happening, just not everywhere at the same time at once

This has not been my experience at all ... I run KDE + Fedora or Ubuntu on laptops for years as my daily driver doing professional work. Its an absolute joy to work with and stable…

Somehow, somewhere there is a pleasant balance between DRY and non-DRY which is different for everybody. God forbid having a colleague who sees a thing repeating and slaps an abstr…

Exactly! Linkportals and webrings ...

Perl became popular because there was not really an alternative on par with its capabilities and because it was bundled with every Linux distro. But then Python came along and pick…

> What is the essence of the complaint here? As said, that I often cannot relate the managed application's documentation to the Helm chart's interface? Reason for it can vary ... p…

Came here to feel the temperature of the comments, and unsurprisingly, most folks seem to have plenty of gripes with Helm. A Helm chart is often a poorly documented abstraction lay…

Beyond stunning, worth its asking price imo.
