you can always ask the other person, if they want advise or not

for me it would be more about who you are speaking to. If i know somebody i will tell them straight that it is a bad idea. Anybody else, depends on the context or the business relation.

yeah and both ways are wrong. I have as much in common with the the german nazis as i have with the japanese war crimes with the chinese and i am german.

We should have strived for understanding that racism is to be fought against and not "hey these countries are bad because they lost" If you have seen the horrors what the americans did to the vietnamese or other way around, or the serbs against their neighbors the bosnians, you come to the conclusion every country is shit.

We need to understand as a species that in order to evolve, we need to break out of the violence and dumb wars, over resources. We have so much potential and we are wasting it, because of stupid and greedy people pushing misery and hate. Don't get me started on religion

or treat vm's as containers and just spawn a single process in a firecracker vm. More secure than containers will ever be and just as easy as another vm. Could be managed by kubernetes if you like or need to manage many of these.

woopwoop24 — Mon, 06 May 2024 09:01:04 +0000

i had such a hard time learning traefik and transitioning to V2. I do not fall into the standard case, wanting to use traefik for containers, not running on the same host (you cannot have labels annoted as the docs suggest, if the container is on another host) Docs were sparse and also not wanted to use the env vars for the traefik config as well, so took a bit of fumbling and reading and eventually i figured it out, but was almost on the verge of going back to haproxy

interesting perspective. So all entities in one big simulation to ensure everyone has the same clock/variables/... and then just simulate around the person?

you don't need to simulate everything in a big monolith and with all the complexity of everybody in it, that does not scale well.

You only need to simulate the perspective of you and what you can see, observe and the interactions you make right now.

Same as video games just render in a certain radius around you.

That scales well per human. Heck everybody around you might be an NPC and you will never know

woopwoop24 — Fri, 05 Apr 2024 06:27:03 +0000

for me it would be a lot of underlying complexity for "just" exposing docker-compose containers to the internet.

I don't really understand the target audience here. If you need to manage dns, server hardening, backups, upgrades, internet exposing and evaluating the risks behind that, you should be able to do the rest yourself too. And it is single server only

woopwoop24 — Fri, 05 Apr 2024 06:03:09 +0000

for the money your governments spend licensing MS products, they could develop libreOffice from scratch in better, faster and nicer looking.

Or just pay a few devs or a few hundred to make it better and still pay less in fees every year.

minio is good but you really need fast disks. They also really don't like, when you want to change the size of your cluster setup. No plan to add cache disks, they just say use faster disks. I have it running, goes smoothly but not really user friendly to optimize

New comment by woopwoop24 in "VMware Kills Off 56 Products"

Problem is that management is usually not skilled enough (or just greedy for bonus money short term) to understand what is happening. Cloud is good if you are tiny or need to scale really fast if you are growing and then move out of it. For the bigger companies it can be a good strategy to scale out, but for that you only need IAAS and no fancy cloud vendor lock-in products. you will always be cheaper if you build it on your own, if your usecase is heavy load.

you might be cheaper with colocation instead of building your own datacenter but most enterprises still have a need for their own anyway.

i think i will still be in tech when the pendulum swings back to on-prem, when everybody notices how awfully expensive the cloud is, after the bigger players raise the prices at will, because they killed off the competition.

or just get rid of microsoft in the workplace and enjoy the absence of a terrible environment with the addition of fewer attack scenarios, better software and happier users but sad management people, but they don't do work on their machines anyway ;)

if it works for them, let them have it.

i stopped reading the spec, after i have seen that the only label they attach is the lb. anyone who really uses k8s will not at this product longer than it takes, reading the readme or the first bit of code.
