yolo while vibe coding feels like the new sudo.

I always thought Microsoft Azure and Azure support was bad but when compared to office365 it's actually a really good offering.

This is incredibly difficult to read @wordpress.org

Hetzner is much easier to get compute resources from than compared to AWS. I'm trying to spin up 4 nodes in AWS with a total of 8vCPU's and i've been waiting on a service quota increase for 3 days now. In Hetzner the defaults are a lot higher and they generally approve quota increases in <24h

If you use google workspace and don't maintain regular backups of your google drive, I recommend upgrading to the basic enterprise plan to get free access to "vault". It's not a proper backup solution, but it still saved me from having to redo some work today. Our retention configs are below:

Anyone deploying kubernetes using kubeadm? If so, any GitHub projects or wrappers that you would recommend over it? #kubernetes #kubeadm #devops #platform #k8s

This week I have spent over 10 hours trying to order a new laptop for an employee from both Staples Canada AND Amazon Canada. Once again, it's an issue with both cross-border payments and/or fraud alarms going off. Last time, I had the same issue with CDW Canada. WHY IS THIS SOOOO DIFFICULT 😭😭😭

Just attended a Hyderabad Postgres meetu hosted at AWS offices. It was a solid event and great networking with a room full of experts on Postgresql. #swag #hyderabad #devops #databases #postgres #sql #pgedge #aws #samosas

Pretty accurate 🫣 how mighty google have fallen off the cliff 😅

Upgraded to Kubernetes 1.30 earlier today, and hours later Kubernetes 1.32 dropped! 😅 I am back to being on a version that's soon to be unsupported.

OK! I'm throwing this out there to get feedback -- who wants to come to an #atproto developer conference in March 2025? #ATmosphereConf feedback form is live, let me know what you think!

Atmosphere Community@atmosphere.community · 2y ago

Initial call for interest: want to get involved in an #atproto in-person conference, late March in the Pacific Northwest? Read the info at atprotocol.dev/atmosphereco... and please fill out the form to give feedback #ATmosphereConf

I'm hanging out in India right now and it's surprisingly difficult to make payments as a foreigner. Even Google pay doesn't work as my account is USD.

For the people who think Comcast or Spectrum customer support is bad, I have traveled thousands of miles and discovered it's just as bad in India. #comcast #spectrum #fiberact #actindia #actcorp

Whenever I take a year-old online course, I hit setup issues. My current course says to use the latest tool version, but I get a dozen errors. Downgrading is usually a total cluster F'k when I'm 2‑5 versions ahead. With DevBox, I downgraded in 60s and can now focus on learning. #devbox #nix #nixhub

Choosing a wiki solution feels more difficult than picking a cloud provider.

I'm noticing a number of package versions for opentofu and argocd are missing in nixpkgs. Why can't they use renovatebot? #nix #devops #devbox

DevBox is soooo coool. Unless I hit a blocker, I am switching over.

GitHub copilot has progressed soo much since it first came out. If you haven't used it since it's initial release I highly recommend you give it a go. #cursorkiller #aistartupkiller #github #copilot

Turns out this was PEBCAK. It appears we actually got #hetzner object storage working with #loki #thanos and #tempo. The costs savings are looking good! So far looks like it'll be about 1/10th of what we were spending on our dev/R&D costs in AWS. #devops #cloud #cloudengineering #developerplatforms

Just burned a few hours trying to list objects using Hetzner's beta Object storage. It appears this isn't possible right now: docs.hetzner.com/storage/obje... #devops #hetzner

I'm watching some folks reverse engineer the xz backdoor, sharing some *preliminary* analysis with permission. The hooked RSA_public_decrypt verifies a signature on the server's host key by a fixed Ed448 key, and then passes a payload to system(). It's RCE, not auth bypass, and gated/unreplayable.

This might be the best executed supply chain attack we've seen described in the open, and it's a nightmare scenario: malicious, competent, authorized upstream in a widely used library. Looks like this got caught by chance. Wonder how long it would have taken otherwise.

at bluesky we practice "mostly deploy fridays" if anyone on the team expresses dismay at this, we say "what do you work at google?" and press the button

you know what they say: don’t launch on Fridays (except if it’s a massive rebranding of your entire app, in which case make sure it’s the Friday before Christmas)
