awesome-sysadmin > configuration-management
https://github.com/kahun/awesome-sysadmin/blob/master/README...

- This could list reusable module collections such as Puppet Forge and Ansible Galaxy;

- And module testing tools like Puppet Beaker and Ansible Molecule (that can use Vagrant or Docker to test a [set of] machines)

https://github.com/stack72/ops-books

- I'd add "Time Management for System Administrators" (2005)

https://landing.google.com/sre/books/

- There's now a "Site Reliability Workbook" to go along with the Google SRE book. Both are free online.

https://response.pagerduty.com

- The PagerDuty Incident Response Documentation is also free online.

- OpsGenie has a free plan also with incident response alerting and on-call management.

There are a number of awesome-devops lists.

Minikube and microk8s package Kubernetes into a nice bundle of distributed systems components that'll run on Lin, Mac, Win. You can convert docker-compose.yml configs to Kubernetes pods when you decide that it should've been HA with a load balancer SPOF and x.509 certs and a DRP (Disaster Recovery Plan) from the start!
It's an old Carmack quote:

It's why DooM was such an incredible novelty of fast paced 3d shooter, and Quake... Well.. Its devoid of character.

It's why HL & Fallout are so beloved.

I'm 100% with you
they didn't lose money, they were part of a branch of a larger division that decided to shut the entire branch down.

"A startup worrying about competitors is like a fat guy smoking a cigarette as he worries about contracting West Nile Virus.”

That's actually really, really good. It's super hard to adequately express ideas of "just do this (positive, constructive) thing and don't worry so much about (all the wildly unlikely things people routinely worry about instead)." But that remark does a surprisingly good job of capturing some important elements of the concept.
Are you referring to the "basic" Google TTS or the WaveNet option? I believe the WaveNet voices are much, much better than those produced my any other TTS service or publicly available model, but I'd love to see some counter-examples.

Part of the reason I started the DOS port was that the QuakeWorld port had dropped to zero activity. I was trying to validate a different style of building GCC and all the servers were empty.

When q2 had shipped out I was so busy working I never had time to play it seriously.

Quake 4 felt far more engaging to me. And q3.. I had the tin box set for Linux. Remember that push to make retail Linux gaming a thing? Shame it never panned out.
Java is obsolete in the same way Apple is obsolete because it sold a few less iPhones.

While I like my Yubikeys, they definitely aren't more convenient or intuitive for people who aren't accustomed to using multifactor authentication already. The webauthn spec [0] includes support for "biometric authenticators" and "platform authenticators" (e.g. the fingerprint readers with secure enclaves increasingly present on phones and laptops), and I think that has a real chance at improving authentication security across the board. Once Apple, Google, and the like start pushing "touch to login" via webauthn, people will come to expect that sort of convenience. And if all of your devices include these authenticators, adding a new device should be as simple as authenticating on one that hasn't been lost or stolen.

cart {
let! item1 = item
let! item2 = anotherItem
…
}

No cycle there! You'd use some kind of state monad to keep track, and each let! simply adds something to the state. For example, you could end up with the computation expression producing a `Cart = Cart of Item list`, which contains a list of the things that were added.

Your question about going back to a previous state: it depends on what style you're using.

* At my day job, we use the "initial algebra" style (which is something of an abuse of F#'s type system but which gives you absolute power). In this style, your computation expression produces a structure isomorphic to a list of "this was added, then this was added, then this was removed, then this was added, …". It is then the job of some further processing step to convert this into more useful forms, like deduplicating carts which have the same contents.

* One could instead produce the cart as you went, and it would Just Work (tm). Note that in F#, most data structures are immutable, so "rolling back" to the list [item1; item2] from the list [item3; item1; item2] is exactly the same as taking the tail of that input list. You won't fork the state by producing another list which happens to have the same contents; they are the same list. In general, F# structures tend to do structural equality.

This post will get downvoted so much but as a female who grew up on welfare, the first one in my family to graduate from high school, with a degree in electrical engineering and now self taught crappy but getting better software engineer, I literally want to cry knowing this antagonistic response os still the default of the
heartbeat in tech.

If anyone eants real stories about what its like for a female in hardcore tech not a priveleged woman in pro women tech events all the time (and honestly, traumatised to go in fear of the dillemma of how do I encourage women while simultaneously warning them of what an emotioal nightmare it is wading through biases much like the ones that exist in this conversation but not as a one off hn comment threads but interwoven in the fabric of your everyday interactions with coworkers, tech scene friends and original first impression to college peers) while not diacouraging them that hey deapitw the building, the perao al dignity you'll gain from prpving yourself if your willing to put in the effort and quite honestly lets be real, the security that financially you'll never hage to depend on a man, that the day he hits you you can take you and your children and leave his sorry ass behind and never have to worry about money or atleast meeting the basic needs of your family, is nkt the high money whire rich men on wallstreet feel bjt its a high you should feel everyday when you wake up in the morning when you ask yourself what is the minimum level of bullshit your willing to put up with and what is not, is forever worth it.
I was a PM at Oracle - our team VP reported to Larry. Everybody I worked with was very experienced and very sharp. On the other hand, we regarded most of the company as "sheep" who executed our plans. Completely expendable and generally unenlightened. Obviously there were other bright people around the company, but by and large they had no clue about our strategy or direction or the way that real decisions were made (and we kept a lot of the real reasons for things secret - we didn't want competitors to know what we were really doing or why.) You don't become a business the size of Oracle by being completely stupid.

One example - since then I've worked for about 5 or 6 companies who boast about how they hired Oracle salespeople, so now they are energizing their sales. But at Oracle we spent a lot of time and effort at HQ doing things to make Sales and the Salespeople effective. So at company after company they can't figure out why hiring the "right" Salespeople isn't solving their problem. But they aren't doing any of the things that we did to support Salespeople (things throughout the rest of the company and outside the company.) We kept most of it secret from Sales, so even they didn't really know what we were doing. So are the Sales people smart? Yes. And are they sheep? Yes.

Similar arguments apply to most of the other PMs outside of core database (who companies also mistakenly hire to "turbocharge" their products), most of the Engineering groups, most of the support teams, and generally everybody outside a relatively small group of people.
Damn man!!! I loved it
That is not enough of a reason. Don't punish me for mistakes done by somebody in the past. Punish me for my mistakes alone.

"Even if we're not actively discriminating against women now, bias still remains in this male-dominated industry."

This rhetoric is just to confuse people. Any non-active discrimination removes the burden on those who are not facing the bias. Period.
Getting equality by stepping over other's heads and pushing them down? Sorry, that is not equality. That is oppression.
These non-active biases are something women have every right and power to overcome by themselves. They should not be served in platter. They should burden themselves to do so.

"Therefore, it's necessary to do something in order to bring women back in, and we all have to do our part - in some cases this could mean men making way for women."

Its funny how we write "we all have to do our part" only to not see women sacrifice anything in the end. The word "all" is clever way to escape this sexism against men. Also the word "small" downplays the sacrifices of men in the due process and assumes patronizing attitude in deciding the pains behind such sacrifices don't matter for men. If in order to support your livelihood, I have to kill my hunger, my opportunities, my chances, my support to family then you are part of the problem, not me.

"...it's about doing what we can to correct our historic mistakes."

Past is past. History remains and can never be corrected. It is the present that we should correct and see to it that there is no further active discrimination.

I do think women should stop blaming others and put their efforts to the point of testing their limits instead of insulting men but I am slandered with 'victim blaming'. Ha!

These people cannot make the whole world believe their perpetual victimization just so they can steal free affirmative action. Either prove your mettle and talent to get your money or get out.

Studies have shown that women move away from STEM, both in studies and career as countries are more gender egalitarian. Countries with less egalitarian societies have more women in STEM[0].

> I'd also suggest your opinions about America are pretty divorced from the realities on the ground.

St Louis and Baltimore have murder rates as high as the worst countries in Latin America; much worse than Mexico or Brazil, and many more American cities murder rates are as high as Mexico or Brazil.

I would not recommend most people to run their own k8s cluster. Even Amazon's EKS is enough of a pain in the ass I don't think it's close to a "define once, forget about it" type of experience.

As someone who’s done a lot with Stripe Connect, I just want to clarify that there’s nothing inherently shady about onboarding users without performing KYC. I’m not sure if you meant to indicate it was (it sounds like Shopify might be doing it as part of a larger process that, as a whole, is shady).

I think it’s an important point to make because one of the great benefits of Stripe Connect is being able to onboard users and let them start accepting payment without collecting any KYC information.
> It definitely looks like it is wishful thinking for diesel engines to meet those standards and be cost-competitive with gasoline-fueled alternatives

The technology that would have brought "Dieselgate" diesels into compliance with EU emissions rules was said to cost manufacturers something on the order of US$100 per vehicle: Selective catalytic reduction (SCR) with a refillable AdBlue (urea) tank.

However, prior to Dieselgate there is alleged to have been collusion between the major German automakers and a secret agreement not to install it on small vehicles.

This collusion, rather than the emissions cheating itself, is the focus of ongoing criminal investigations in Germany. (Cheating on emissions tests itself was not actually illegal in Europe, because the legislation was created with loopholes).

As of 2019, AdBlue is becoming common on new small diesel vehicles in Europe.
better buy from a car company founded by a money launderer who is currently lying on tweeter to manipulate stock prices illegally and fighting hard to keep under wraps the auto pilot killer bugs.

any reason why you are not buying from the dozen asian manufacturers that are not involved in either shenanigans if you base your purchases solely on moral grounds?
People in US perhaps have no idea what is Article 13. It basically says that websites which allow their users to share/upload copyrighted content are now liable resulting in fees to copyright owners. This is big deal in Europe right now although not many in US seems to have heard about it. Lot of European versions of websites are going "dark" in protest.

The law is obviously lobbied by entertainment industry to target likes of YouTube, Pinterest, Instagram etc. However its sure sounds pretty dumb. Next time if I want to backrupt a website, I can just upload tons of copyrighted material there.

> There's one complicating factor that I don't see getting the attention it deserves. Unlike previous cycles, the Fed has been actively manipulating long-term yields for over a decade.

Yeah, very few are talking about what has been going on in the back end by them and how it distorts the curve gymnastics, but even the fed warned last year that it (long end inversion) might not be a reliable signal as it once was (because of their dealings) implying that things may come faster than people may expect if that was what they were only looking at.

The big problem is that people are now starting to realize is that even though QE can provide liquidity, it can't provide solvency: more debt just makes it worse when banks try to lend out their fresh reserves they were able to get from their trade in for liquid assets from the fed, especially if the top line of companies stays the same or starts to deteriorate, even setting aside companies that have been skirting along on negative income for so long because they were able to keep rolling over debt at ZLB.

>The status going forward of QT and the Fed's gargantuan balance sheet is anybody's guess. My bet is the Fed is done with QT until at least after the 2020 election.

QT is still on, just tweaked now:

"
- Begin tapering the “runoff” of Treasury securities in May.

- End the runoff of Treasury securities on September 30.

- Continue shedding mortgage-backed securities (MBS) at the current maximum of $20 billion a month, essentially until they’re gone.

- After September, reinvest MBS principal payments into Treasury securities.
Chair Jerome Powell said during the press conference that the balance sheet will by then be “a bit above $3.5 trillion.”

- The balance sheet will remain at this level even as the economy grows, thus slowly shrinking in relationship to GDP.

- The Fed may sell MBS outright to speed up the process of getting rid of them.

- No decision has been made on the delicate issue of the maturity composition of the balance sheet – which would require buying short-term bills for the first time in years to replace longer-term notes and bonds." [0][1]

>They almost certainly will make the wrong decisions.

Yes they will, and plenty of traders are betting on it. It's amazing that some people think CB's have control of this ship… but hey, someone needs to be on the other side of the trade.

Why should you be concerned about vendor lock in?

I haven't heard a convincing argument why vendor lock in is a problem regarding the cloud.

It can be a problem, but all solutions result in you avoiding the things you went there for in the first place.

There is exceptions to this obviously but I find most people worried about vendor lock in are no where near big enough to bother running multi cloud.

I wonder why mazda or some other competitor didn’t find this by doing their own research? I make software for structural engineering and when some competitor launches a program that makes “better designs” it has usually turned out to be because they simply don’t follow the design codes/regulations. We wouldn’t be pushed from the market by that - we’d fund the analysis, reverse engineering and legal processes necessary to show the competitor is cheating.

I heard about such crazy arrangements before in the interview with the author of this book https://www.hoover.org/research/high-cost-good-intentions-hi.... He did a good job studying the history of Federal entitlements stemming from the Civil War and how that select targeting of veterans slowly and steadily expanded with the years. There was this interesting entitlement creep if you will. If I recall correctly it started with soldiers who died in battle to leave a pension or something behind for their widows. Then some soldiers close to that qualification got the next dibs, those who were wounded I believe, and eventually it became everyone who served in the Civil War, and kept creeping to descendants of soldiers or something along those lines. Pretty nuts, but does capture well that aspect of human nature.
