    Look... I'm a Kubernetes dude through and through. I put Kubernetes in small embedded devices to control factory shops, so, I'm a fan. But let's all agree this maybe is a tad much,…

    Please, kill Jira and Confluence. I hate Atlassian tools so much. The user interfaces are sluggish no matter the hardware you're using... it's a shame it became almost a standard i…

    Other comments have put better than I could, but I'll add that what people call ecosystems nowadays is completely unthinkable in embedded. Sometimes you have critical applications …

    The truth is: we, actual embedded developers, much rather compile a LUA interpreter and stick it in there and be done with it.

    We are slowly getting better at this. Most embedded Linux companies for example have shifted or are in the process of shifting to an upstream-first policy. A lot of the toolchains …

    Very cool! Does anybody know something like a translator tool between all the different `yaml`s different CI/CD services use? Or maybe some metalanguage specifically made for that …

    Map is not loading for me. Maybe it got hugged to death?

    Alpine, Debian and Arch have never given me a miss regarding packaging for arm64/hf. And I work specifically with embedded Linux using those distros as a base.

    I wish it was just a matter of the `- ` thing... Debian metadata (control, rules...) and its build system (sbuild, rebuild) is arcane and feels old. Having to maintain a Debian fee…

    Kind is super cool! I used it for my thesis, as I needed many nodes without getting super into k8s configuration. I love, love kind. If you're into learning Kubernetes, it's probab…

    We should physically burn all the servers that ever held the information inside this repo and bury the remains inside a nuclear waste long-term storage. I hate it. 10/10.
