mite popcorn with fresh honey sounds like a three star dish for $67

The hard truth these days is that the work of bee keeping is like 80% keeping the mites in check. Plus all current treatments render the honey inedible so you can only do it at the end of the season.

docker is not a security boundary but a resource boundary.

also i found them much less stable than metal instances running into weird kvm failures

yes only c8i, m8i and r8i instance types support it. It is called nested virtualization[1]

yep looks heavily inspired by OF. Anyone knows whats up with that project? I was involved years ago, it seems to still be going but I think many people moved on?

Hosted dashboard for your personal weather station.

https://weatherstage.com/

I had some custom build scripts and sites for my dad and myself and was thinking I could make a simple SaaS out of it. Super early and didn’t advertise anywhere yet since the actual dashboard is very simple right now but it works and I keep adding the features I want to use myself.

Example dashboard: https://warnitz.weatherstage.com/

If you want to try it out, I suggest you write me at hello at domain and I will get you going. Let me know the type of weather station you have!

They should have renamed it first to HashiCorp, an IBM Company CDK, then shut it down

Tried it, had some issue, opened a bug report, no response. I think it is dead.

Le chat doesn’t seem to know about this change despite the blog post stating it. Can anyone explain how to use it in Le Chat?

…and removed from front page…

Why did this post got removed from the front page?

Docker hub reported an incident[1] at the same time. Are they running on R2?

Is this a freely available library (JS?) they use for this?

What I am always missing in these posts: How do they limit network bandwidth? Since these are all multi-tenant services, how do they make sure a container or isolated browser is not taking all the network bandwidth of a host?

Shouldn’t this be built into a queue somehow? I’d love to see a queuing solution like SQS but has a built in fairness, where you can fully utilize a capacity but as soon as, let’s say customers compete on resources, some fairness kicks in. Is there anything like that?

Sadly Grafana (cloud) comes at a cost too. Anyone struggles with this horrible active metrics based pricing too? Not only Grafana Cloud but others do it like that too.

We moved shitloads to self hosted Thanos. While this comes with its own drawbacks obv, I think it was worth it.

Personal contacts. With this, I mostly mean LinkedIn. Found my last two gigs there. Once because an old colleague was reaching out and the other time when I made a post, that I am up for work. There are also tons of recruiters there looking for freelancers, at least for platform engineering I am getting weekly at least 1 or 2 offers.

Headline should be changed to “40 out of 60 in China”

This is great. Last time I tried this I couldn’t even find a way in code to disable some.

An era ends. Still remembering my number. 9 digits!

Just checked my .emacs and I am doing exactly the same. I prefer over C-x O since it is one key less to press and more flexible.

You cannot only do classic heartbeat checks but also high level API (single request and multi request) and Browser checks to make sure your service is behaving as expected.

Seems like half the unison team is here in this thread. Congrats, looking forward to try it out!

I can just imagine that moving to IPv6 is as messy on Azure than it is on AWS.

Don’t get me wrong, actually using it is simpler, you can just have your range and then be free to do whatever you want. But the fact that it was added later to a stack never made for it shows everywhere, which makes UX tough.

Currently struggling with metadata service weirdness and slowness in IPv6 land on AWS :’)

SOC2 ?

Can’t wait to install on my M2 Pro MacBook. I was a long term Arch user on a Thinkpad years ago and then switched to MacBooks. Apple Hardware and Linux is best of both worlds for me.

Congrats to the Asahi team!

Simple solution: Do not use cookies which are not strictly necessary and you don’t need a banner.

Define better CI? It is much slower and way more expensive than GHA with all its free M$ money.

Never understood the point of storing your 2fa where your passwords are.
