Ask HN: What is your Kubernetes use case?
My team has recently created a suite of tools to streamline and monitor the process of building, testing and deploying containers to Kubernetes.
We built these tools after getting numerous requests from customers who are transitioning part, or all, of their stack to utilize Kubernetes.

I wanted to see what use cases people in the HN community are finding for Kubernetes and how they are structuring their development workflow with Kubernetes clusters as the final recipient of their running containers in mind.

Here is our usecase/lifecycle:

We have 3 stateless Microservices. Ultimately, these are deployed in two separate Pods, with two of the microservices sharing a pod. We expect that after every meaningful action (commit/pull request) an affected microservice should be built into a new Docker image using a Dockerfile, tested, and if tests pass successfully we expect the resulting Docker image to be uploaded to our private Docker registry.
Thereafter, we want the new image to be automatically deployed to our staging cluster under a specific deployment namespace/name. We want to keep all the current specifications for the deployment under that namespace/name but only want the updated image to be upgraded via its new tag in the container specifications. We proceed to run integration tests against the staging cluster, and if those succeed we manually promote to our production cluster under a specific deployment namespace/name. Again in this scenario we want to conserve all of the specifications on the existing deployment we are modifying and only update the container configurations with a new image tag.
The tools that we built currently answer our usecase and are flexible enough to answer many similar usecases. What are your usecases?

Also, We are not using Kubernetes currently to manage our persistence layer. Are any of you guys doing this? What has been your experience?

Apologies if this is poorly written. English is hard :)
I will avoid all frameworks that do stuff like

<li *ngFor="let item of items; let i = index; trackBy: trackByFn">...</li>

and

<li v-for="(item, index) in items" :key="item.id">...</li>

I'm just not going to write code in those custom attributes.
To an incredible degree, too. The Sprint commercials about basically being the same are true almost everywhere I've been in the past few years, so I've been using project Fi (Google's service) for a while. But every time I travel back to VA, I'm thrown back into a world of hunting for signal that I'd almost forgotten.
To Terraform or Not to Terraform: Configuration Management in AWS
That's so Joe Schmo doesn't sue the company across the street from drilling into an oil reserve that happens to extend under his property. You can't really extract underground resources while respecting above-ground property lines, especially when you're talking about liquids or gasses.

It's not like they can demolish your house and build a pump there just because you don't own what's under it.
noo - would be a shame as Pebble is doing some cool stuff.

> both companies are facing declining fortunes in the wearable industry

Seems a bit unexpected. Is the whole industry declining? Or did Apple manage to steamroll it after all with their watch?
I assume the students didn't make a pill so much as produce some substance in a vial. It looks like the synthesis of pyrimethamine (the chemical in question) isn't exactly simple although it's definitely not beyond the capabilities of intelligent, motivated high schoolers with a great chemistry teacher.

in the article they said they had it analyzed, and it was pretty pure. That's not quantitative enough to say for sure. With some sleuthing you should be able to find the information for Daraprim and its purity. But there is a big difference from making some small amount of pretty pure substance in a lab, and the process of making production-grade pharmaceuticals at scale.
I think the frustration has been boiling for a while (the constant nickle&dime approach is hard to bear for long, and traditional Apple desktops are dead in the water). These "Air at Pro prices" are just the last straw for many.
Hard work, a healthy serving of luck, and a decent amount of hustle. Luck in that while my living and financial circumstances sucked, I won the genetic lottery on the intelligence front, so learning has always been both fairly easy for me, and something I'm naturally inclined to pursue. On the hard work front I basically gave up my social life for the most part and instead focused on learning everything I could, and made myself available to move should any opportunity come up. At 35 years old I've moved over 20 times almost always in pursuit of opportunity. I also make a point to always be available for my clients or for my boss if I'm working for someone. This helped me build a decent sized network of people who say nice things about me which makes tracking down those new opportunities easier. Currently going on my 6th year in six figure territory and my 8th for doing better than 80K a year. Not bad for a previously homeless guy with a GED eh? :-)
Maybe he has "called in rich".
Are you guys selling yet? I need this for my startup asap.
Ask HN: Cheap living and fast internet and cold climate?
I'm looking for somewhere in the world to live to work on a web project for an extended time. Fast/reliable internet + cheap living + cold climate preferably :)

Reason for cold in case anyone's wondering: it's hard to concentrate in the heat.
> I also worked in the lab with a guy who worked with ether and smoked in the lab.

I'm super curious -- when were you a grad student?
The guy who wrote "the girl with dragon tattoo" was a leftwing journalist. There is no cultural epitaph of pervasive leftist majority anymore in the Nordic countries. If anything there are much more nationalist conservative right-wing views among the common population because of the recent waves of ME immigrants. The media by an large is still left.

It's true that many west european countries had very strong socialist movements for decades (not as much now though), but there isn't even possible to make such statements that it's somehow became engraved in the culture. Look at the former East Block countries, there it might be true, but then the mistrust of the public to businesses is because of the corruption. Sweden also has a fair bit of corruption, but the authorities together with lobbying organizations and media spread enough propaganda that the country is somehow the least corrupt in the World.

Where is AngelList getting this 12M? According to Crunchbase they've raised 24M total. Also why the heck would the board approve spending such a massive chunk of cash on an acquisition which seems rather speculative (IE it isn't an obvious merger like GrubHub-Seamless or DraftKings-FanDuel)?

Additionally, why would the VCs prefer cash to shares in AngelList? VCs are in the business of putting money into rising companies, I'd assume they'd much rather have shares in AL than having to return a pittance of cash to their LPs.

I'd also make a large wager that none of the founders of PH have "FU" money as a result of this deal. AL putting their scarce cash into the pockets of founders is a very very stupid way for them to invest their money. You'd much rather structure the deal to give the founders AL stock so they have an incentive to work hard for you instead of just waiting out the deal and pocketing your cash. Remember that AL has all the leverage here, they can structure the deal however they want.

It boils down to your definition of "patriotism" vs "terrorism". "good" vs "evil". When China does it, it's bad, right? And the same done by the U.S. good? Or is it the other way around?

Decorators being at Stage-1 seems to be a special case. It's very unlikely that decorators won't make it into the language.
I have been thinking of doing it under a gold standard by basically increasing it every time there is a trade surplus and decreasing it every time there is a deficit. Restoring manufacturing will help reduce the trade deficit, but may not restore all the jobs due to automation.
It was possible to write tests but pass by reference is a "feature" of Fortran IV.

A subroutine receives values from the caller through
the parameter list; likewise, the subroutine returns
values by modifying the variables in the parameter
list. Subroutines are invoked in a FORTRAN program
as a statement, not an expression. The syntax used
is,
CALL name(actualParamList)

See you modify the parameter to send a return value. Really ancient stuff. And if you're working on hardware that is challenged in not having a "load immediate" instruction for floating point, well you get "optimizations" where the compiler creates what is essentially a pre-initialized variable and uses the address of that when a constant is used.

Hmmm, reading further, there is a 12-month commitment on the $3,000/month plan.

So if you get hit by DDOS, you can't just pay $3,000 and hope that DDOS is gone within a month. Looks like you have to sign up for a year's worth of protection.

Best way to buy a car is to pay cash for one that sold in high volume 6 or 8 years ago. Look for one that has been taken care of. Mileage is nearly irrelevant in that case. They don't command a price much above the neglected ones, but they have a ton of low-cost life left and insurance is cheap.
Oh no. /s
This started a long long time ago.

Positioning satellites are likely targets of a satellite war. There was a strong emphasis to have the European satellite positioning system (Galileo) to use different frequencies than GPS (e.g: so they could be jammed without side effects on each other). GPS jammers have been a thing for a while too.

Then, spy satellites get occasionally targeted by light beams so they cannot take pictures.

Then, both China and the US have destroyed decommissioned satellites with missiles. When China did it, they were denounced publicly for increasing the amount of space debris.

So naturally satellite-on-satellite fun was naturally going to be a thing.

A predicted satellite weapon system are rods of tungsten (or whatever) dropped from space as a mean of very powerful kinetic bombardment... something that has received the name of "rod of god". Can cause large damage without side effects (e.g: radiation, public outcry).

Rods of god however have a prohibitive cost due to the cost of lifting objects to orbit. Eventually the first superpower to get their hands in a space elevator will fill space with rods of god. Space elevators however would need some shielding to pass through the nasty Van Allen belt radiation, since space elevators are slower than rockets exposing the payload to radiation for longer periods of time.
Well Angular was initially released three years earlier than React was. Also, React is all about one-way data flows, and Angular is all about two-way bindings, so that's one noteable difference in goals.
I think you can answer your own rhetorical question. Point taken.
I'm highly doubtful that ignoring "up to the minute" news is going to hurt anyone. "News" in it's most frequently consumed form now seems less like a useful presentation of information without slant and much more like "Journalists react."

The useful news is usually not 'up to the minute', not particularly eye catching or entertaining, and is very well sourced. It usually takes the form of things like journal papers, voting records, or the results of careful document audits. It rarely is concerned with any single person and is much more concerned with the actions of many people over time.

Basically, 'news' now seems mostly about entertainment, and telling people "you have an obligation to follow this particular form of entertainment" seems like a very silly thing to say.
'Better' is debatable. If you make it well, it can be quite good. Add extra milk, butter, (and salt if needed). Strain and add these before the noodles are soft, and keep it on the stove until it reduces and softens. It's a completely different experience.

Most people seem to mix that crap in cold and end up with dry, pasty mush.

Ask HN: Is it socially advantageous to be a female founder?
Outdated gender roles place heavy responsibility on men to get a job that pays a lot of money, has prestige, and prepares one to support a family. Since women don't have that societal pressure, they'd be less affected by the social stigma of being a failed founder in a worst case scenario. Hence, they may face less social risk. Thoughts?

(Needless to say, there's TONS of other obstacles female founders will face that men don't even have to think about).

most news doesn't matter, but political news does.

it directly affects how much money i make, how much inflation my assets will enjoy or suffer from, how much i will be taxed, and under what circumstances (i.e., should i decide to sell my company this year? should i sell my house now or next year?)

it also directly affects the rights that i or my friends may or may not have as a citizen. i.e. gay marriage, gun ownership, abortions, marijuana legalization, etc.

if you don't think any of this really matters, then uhh, i guess we disagree.

An interpreter controls the entire state of its execution environment. A compiler generates code, passes it over the wall, and hopes for the best.
There is a lot of evidence that "primitive" static type systems add value via enabling better tooling.

Low cost of adoption + clear minor tooling benefits is usually enough evidence to adopt Java/C# style static types.

Haskell style static typing has a very high cost of adoption and so must conclusively show a strong benefit in order to be adopted by industry.

At the moment I feel Haskell companies can get away with using Haskell because PL enthusiasts are willing to absorb the training costs.

Except that digital photography was better in almost every way than film-and-print photography. Electric cars have some advantages but are (at present) woefully inadequate in other ways. I don't think the comparison is the same.
furnaces are heavy and cost a lot to transport. It may not cost much more to make them in America and ship them to states close to Indiana as compared to producing them at lower cost in Mexico and shipping them a lot further.

Love the styling, but the idea, I'm not sure how reliable Reddit is. Reddit is overly anti-Apple, due to its PC and PC gamer nature. The exceptions are /r/apple subreddit. There's a lot of karmawhoring and circlejerking on Reddit too, so I don't doubt that the subreddits you're sourcing your mentions from have a lot of repeat commentors who suggest the same laptop over and over again for karma.

Non-Redditors would be a truer source. Scour Twitter for suggestions, look for normal people (most Redditors are techies or video gamers) and try best to filter out obvious bots or fake tweets.

I think that the larger problem with social science is that they conduct experiments under extremely specific conditions and then attempt to generalize to populations where those same conditions aren't present at all.

> Growth Hackers

Based on its usage in these last two comments, I think I must not understand what the phrase "Growth Hacker" means. I thought it was someone who was critically focused on increasing the numerator and decreasing the denominator in various SaaS KPIs. You don't seem to be using it that way. Is this a new job title in the Bay Area? Or, more generally: would you define this phrase for me?

Why would I buy a $5 magazine anyway when the website has the exact same articles on it? Same articles, and page after page after page of advertisements.
