Kapitan (https://kapitan.dev) is on my radar as a possible sweet spot between Kustomize and Helm.

Until now I've used Jinja2 templates for our Kubernetes definitions with a variables file for each environment, but this is awfully manual.

I'd love Kustomize to be sufficient for us as it's poised to become a standard thanks to now being part kubectl.

Unfortunately, in some ways its YAML patching philosophy is too limited, and coming from a templating system would be a step back even for relatively simple use cases : for example, you're very likely to need a few variables defined once and reused across k8s definitions (a host or domain name, project ID, etc). You can't really do that in a DRY way with Kustomize.

AFAIK, it also currently doesn't have a good story for managing special resources like encrypted secrets : it used to be able to run arbitrary helper tools for handling custom types (I use Sealed Secrets), but this has been removed recently for security reasons, prior to the Kubectl merge.

Kapitan seems to cover these grounds, and it doesn't carry the weight of those Helm features which are useless for releasing internal software, but I'm still a bit worried about the complexity and learning curve for dev teams.

Is there anything else out there that goes a little further than Kustomize, is simpler than Kapitan and Helm and fits well into a GitOps workflow ?
Well you shouldn't say that.... someone probabbly is selling it though.
As someone else already noted in this thread: employees were the only ones who actually made money on this company, in form of their salary received over the years. It's only the equity part of their compensation that went to $0.

Are you suggesting that you’d rather trust EU agency than FAA?

I think FAA had a fantastic record until this whole MAX PR nightmare - they’ve certainly damaged their reputation. But I feel like domain experts at Boeing or Airbus definitely are going to have an edge vs a lowly paid government auditor. EU’s agency or whatever are still going to have to rely on Boeing engineers input.

Having worked in the aviation industry (I was designing C-130 fuselage section) as a Mechanical Engineer, I can tell you that the whole enterprise sometimes feels like it’s supported on stilts, it’s a house of cards.

I prefer paying extra to book a non-stop flight and then I just don't sleep the night beforehand and enter the plane, squeeze into my garbage economy seat and enter a semi-asleep fugue state for the duration of the flight. After 7 hours I basically lose track of time. 3x the price of a cross-pacific airline ticket to upgrade is a good amount of money that I'd rather just pocket.

I'm 6'4", so I recognize how cramped economy is, and I have also been bumped up to business class once cause of a massive flight delay from Alaska back to the east coast, so I know what I'm missing.

I won't knock anyone for flying in better comfort, but I think the suffering isn't too bad. Jet lag is going to get you anyways.
Not quite -- for example, the way that registers are implemented in modern processors is super complex.

Here's a sketch of an attack against this:

the registers don't actually get overwritten they get renamed in modern CPUs. That means the old data is still there, just not logically accessible by non-pipelined instructions. It's possible the data is still sitting in the registers, with an old epoch name. The predictors will be predicting branches and other things based on those registers. So by issuing the right instruction and measuring delay, you might be able to create an oracle to see if you guess a byte correctly from the stale data.

I also don't think the secrets are actually out of memory, they are out of your memory, where your is the kernel and the user space but not necessarily the TEE Secure World memory. This is, of course, the same RAM but protected by a page table.

"""
To ensure code integrity the kernel page table is made read-only at boot time. The kernel is modified to send a request to GService whenever it needs to modify the page table, GService honours this request only when doing so would not result in mapping the code pages of a sensitive function. The kernel is also prevented from overwriting its page table base register so that it can’t swap the table with a compromised one.
"""

Of course, this sounds like the perfect kind of attack for rowhammer to break. Just overwrite the page table by doing reads and then overwrite a sensitive function after it's been invoked once and approved, and now you can leak secrets out that way.

etc
I didn't say it was, neither did the other person.
You're also smart and disciplined, key ingredients that most drug addicts are missing. Meth is absolutely terrible, no arguments there, but what ever happened to personal liberty ? I don't need the government telling me what to do...

Of the pictures at the top of the article, almost every bedroom captioned as being in an underground bunker had a window visible in the frame. One of them had something that looked like the door to a residential apartment next to that window. Another one had nice mouldings between walls and ceiling, which is not a detail I would expect in a bunker. To add to that, basement establishments are not exactly rare in Asia's big cities. I'm very skeptical of this story.
Imagine a city with so much housing demand that there are literal laws about who can and cannot move there for the sake of population control

Also, a lot of the people in the bunkers are not supposed to be there in the legal sense above, which is why they end up there.

> If there is evidence for it occurring, then yes that would be rational, regardless of how unlikely it seems for an event to occur.

Which isn't an answer to the question?

> Forgive me, it seemed that you were dismissing the virgin birth and the resurrection as irrational because you considered such events as not being possible or to unlikely to occur.

I am not dismissing them, I am asking how it is rational to consider them true.

> No. You can postulate reasons for and against miraculous reports, but it is not rational to believe that some proposition or its negation is true unless there is evidence for it.

Correct. So ... how is it rational to believe that either of those Christian doctrines is true?
I bought a United Economy Plus subscription, because I will never fly in regular (or, shudder, basic) economy. It's physically painful for me on most US domestic planes.
I have no doubt that democrats can and will do some stupid crap. Evidence is pretty heavy on the republicans being the main party pushing through this kind of policy for the relevant part of history.

Now, if you don't think regulatory rollback is to blame, that is a different thing. Attack that. Attacking the detail that republicans have been the main ones rolling back? That is actually making it unnecessarily partisan. I say that as someone that agrees that the point is stronger without bringing up who did it.
Why not? It’s economically rational even for the company now. It used to be rational just for the executives.
> At the heart of Nietzsche's philosophical project are attempts to re-ground morality on something other than the crumbling foundations of 'Western values.'

And in the process of doing so, he did a really good job of destroying what was left of traditional western values. The problem was, he didn't build anything adequate in their place. That doesn't necessarily make him evil. But it left the road wide open for those who were evil to use his destruction of values as their rationale for not having any (or rather, for having an evil set of values, and actions to match).

Ask HN: First Engineer at Seed-Stage Startup – Salary Advice?
Using a throwaway.

Background: I am the first employee/engineer at a B2B startup in the Bay Area that just closed seed round. I am responsible for building out our product and managing our two junior devs. I have a masters degree if that matters. My current salary is ~$85k with 2% of company in stock options (usual 4yr vest, 1yr cliff).

I am wondering what a fair salary I should be getting, my anniversary is approaching and I would like to ask for a reasonable increase. Thanks in advance HN!

edit: for clarity, I have 3 years + experience building web apps, 2 of those building my own startup part time while in college. I would say I am at a mid level engineering level but not up to senior level yet.

Thank you for pointing out the consumer protection aspect of trademark, I did not have that in mind when I made that comparison (I had in mind the aspect of trademark that benefits the holder, which I think actually has a lot in common with copyright, but I’ll not belabor an irrelevancy).

So if I am understanding you correctly, your stance is that the creator of some copyrightable work has no inherent right to control the use of that work? And you think that the only reason they should be allowed to control the use of their work is to incentivize creation of new works, not because they deserve a share of the value created by the use of their work (a song used in an advertisement, for example)?

To be clear, I’m asking for your opinion as a judge of moral issues,
not for the legal theory behind copyright.
More importantly, this will take me a minute to read and two minutes to make sure it’s doing the right thing every time I encounter it somewhere new.

I don’t think I will ever understand why so many go advocates seem so openly hostile to encapsulation. If go had used C-style for loops, I swear there would be people here defending the decision saying:

sum = sum + a[1]
}

This article triggers a few of my pet peeves about drugs. Crystal meth is not "the purest, most addictive form" of methamphetamine. It's methamphetamine hydrochloride, which is basically the only form that you'll ever encounter. It's exactly the same as prescription pharmaceutical pills, although without the inert fillers used to make tablets. Street meth is not likely to be very pure, either. The article implies that "crystal meth" is some supermeth and is different from some nebulous non-crystal meth. It's just meth. There's no need to call it "crystal meth".

They also can't stop themselves from mentioning MDMA. The "MA" does indeed stand for "methamphetamine", but the effects are entirely different, and the safety profile is massively different. It's confusing and disingenuous to even mention MDMA in an article about methamphetamine.
When the internet hit the 2000s the idea of these universal services was super powerful.

N years later, maybe we'll have the handle/check proposal[1] implemented. Which I'm actually fairly optimistic about - much of my error handling would be simplified by it, since in many cases (90%+?) any error can be treated as fatal.

There are, fortunately or unfortunately, a lot of very good counter-arguments and alternate proposals and specific implementation debates. So I'm not sure who long it'll take, and as much as I Want It Now™ I do think it's important to be careful for the long-term health of the language.

The Hukou (户口) system that you’re talking about wasn’t established because of demand for housing in Beijing. It’s not really clear why it was established and has origins that date back hundreds of years. It essentially serves as a social control mechanism and to promote people living, and thus laboring, in rural areas. Though it dates back to immigration control between states in “China”. (When they were different sovereign entities.)

They’re all migrant workers and are allowed to be in Beijing without Hukou. Hukou Just establishes certain privileges like home ownership and school access.

The best way to think about Hukou for Americans is that Hukou is like if California required a Texan or Floridian to get a Visa or become a “California Citizen” before working there, buying a home there, or using public services there.

They are “migrant workers and students from rural areas”. They are willing to live in such abysmal conditions for a few years because it holds the promise of a strong quality of life improvement after that.
And Yoshua Bengio replies,

> "It’s continuing. ..."

So he's not objecting to the phrasing, eh?

The linked article has this:

> The loss of expertise in academia concerns Yoshua Bengio, a computer scientist at the University of Montreal in Canada, which has also seen a surge in graduate-student applications. If industry-hired faculty members do retain university roles — as Hinton has at the University of Toronto and Ng has at Stanford University in California — they are usually only minor, says Bengio.

So it's obvious he's not concerned about corporations literally "stealing" students and faculty somehow, like unmarked vans and burly men in black turtlenecks, eh?

> And considering that, it's not hard to believe that this journalist may have some opinions on economics that are far from reality, that (probably unconsciously) triggered his word-twisting reflex.

The word "stealing" is in quotes in TFA.

This is fantastic. I tried it out and works very well. I am self taught python and a bit of javascript to put front end to python servers. I have not really ventured outside that landscape as it has worked well for last 4 years or so for me so please excuse ignorance.

My understanding is in this high performance CPU landscape Java apps should work well on all popular desktop platforms and to have it compiling to a web UI like this makes it even more powerful.

How does including existing Java libraries like GeoTools http://docs.geotools.org/. What are good resources to read to understand the limitations of TeaVM?

We helped lot of people to start with the programming with free courses on Quick Code. Over time, we saw that most of the newcomers in programming have confusion on what path needs to take on the particular programming language or what programming language need to learn first. They need little guidance on picking up the right programming language that can help them to shape their future career.

To overcome this issue, we are excited to launch a programming guide. This programming guide will be useful to anyone who wants to learn a new programming language or want to get into the coding. It guides you step by step about what topics you need to learn in order to be the expert of that programming language.

Yes, part of my point was it's just culture. I grew up in Los Angeles. I lived in Japan for many years and got used to the various celebrations. I then came back to Los Angeles and noticed all the trees blossoming that I and pretty much everyone else had ignored in the past.

So re post above, it's not the cherry trees are especially pretty. It's only that some people in Japan started appreciating them and promoting that appreciation until it spread throughout the country. It could just as easily have been any other blossoming tree or any other country. The only difference is culture not trees.

Fair enough. It looks like Suze really believes a latte will add up to $1M. She's a blowhard, and wrong -- although I think it's fair to say it'll cost well over $100k over that period, which is not insignificant.

Most people who say to skip the $5 a day latte understand that that alone isn't going to make you rich. Instead, the point is to engage in good spending habits, the sum of which will make you at least substantially wealthier than you would be otherwise. The fact that Suze took it literally does not mean the advice needs dismantling. Quite the opposite.

That being said, I do think it's kind of interesting that this guy is writing about don't buy a latte. Buy as many lattes as you want, as long as you don't hire his firm. They'll hit you up for 1% of your AUM under $2M, which is going to hurt a lot more than lattes for anybody who still gives any thought to the price of one.
