EdgeMethods | Senior Devops and SaaS Operations Manager | Full Time | UK Remote

We are the UKs leading Microsoft partner for IoT. We build solutions and products for primarily for industrial and scientific customers on top of the Azure IoT platform.

Looking for a senior technical devops to join the team and take the lead in building out operational, devops, security, and third-line support processes for high-scale, multi-tenant, SaaS IoT solutions on Azure. Working knowledge of Azure and existing (VS Online) devops pipelines is required. Lots of scope for learning new technologies, such as edge ops, MLOps.

Most work is remote, but necessitates customer visits and on-site consulting from time to time. Only UK-based (or destined) applicants will be considered.

Great opportunity for mid-career person tired of commutes and wants a better work-life balance.

You can always `set -g mouse on` in your `tmux.conf`. But that has the nasty downside of stopping you from being able to right-click and copy text to your OS clipboard. It does let you pane select and scroll with a mouse though.
The first two articles I get from that search looks at vitamin d and the older population, and the third[1] suggests that even in sub-arctic elevations "Adequate levels were found in 79.2%, more often in women (82.7%) than in men (75.6%). Only 0.7% of the population were vitamin D3–deficient but 23.1% of men and 17.1% of women had insufficient levels." That doesn't seem too damning.

At the end of the day I don't know enough, so I'm not making the claim about Vitamin D quantities, but isn't the evidence that there was at least some form of adaptation evident based upon skin tone alone?

Has anyone tried to play the "movie" in the map. As I understand it, there has already been back-propagation of the virus from North America back to Asia. Can anyone confirm this is actually the case?

> k8s already uses Wireguard for the service mesh internally.

No it doesn't. There are some CNI plugins that use Wireguard, but it's not standard in any way (like any other network plugin, really).
Refactoring UI fails to explain WHY or provide evidence (e.g. A/B tests) that show their new designs even work.

Let's take their most recent post for example (Remove Borders):
https://twitter.com/steveschoger/status/897849211110273024

The only explanation as to WHY is the before "look[s] really busy." That's quite subjective and unhelpful. There's no testing here, there's no remark on usability/accessibility, no discussion of color-blindness vis-a-vis background color tones, nor real justification for the change anyway.

If you want to create pretty things without worrying about the consequences, they seem like a great resource. But hard to see it as more than a toy resource; professional UI resources do a much better job because they're made for real end users, rather than other developers e.g. UK Digital Project[0], US Digital Project[1].

PS - I'm not saying their designs don't look nice. I'm saying a nice looking UI design isn't a good yardstick for UI. I've created plenty of nice looking UI that users performed worse using.

>Basically no real user or admin-oriented docs. There's some example configs and some getting started guides, and then some crypto-nerd look-how-secure-our-algorithms-are docs, but no real guidance on how to set up a reasonably simple network of hosts.

It wasn't really in release mode until it was merged to the kernel, so that's pretty understandable. I had no networking knowledge aside from pentesting and I was able to get a tunnel working.

I don't think Wireguard was ever going to be like those other things. It sounds like you should wait for products to be built on top of Wireguard. Judging a fish's ability to climb a tree and all that.
lol that's ridiculous. I guess they never update this stuff for inflation? Australia has the right idea with "penalty units" so they can specify a monetary fine in a way that automatically keeps up with inflation:

There are lots of ways it can become your own data, if you subscribe to the idea that data can be owned.
It might be stated even more interestingly than that, because it’s “directionally but not directly,” meaning it’s almost a “warp vision” picking up scatters and “seeing” around corners, right?

Where did guns come from? I didn't mention those. I'm not American and no, "conservatives" do not see the solution as shooting people. What a non-sequitur.

You're doing what liberals always seem to do in these situations: justify attacks, censorship and discrimination on the grounds that if you aren't a liberal you must be an anarchist who deserves whatever they get. That's a straw man argument.
This is the Internet, and you are anonymous. Your “personal experience” has precisely zero credibility for asserting the existence of facts.
GROUPERENAULT instead Packagist...
This website explains it much better than I can, but the tl;dr explanation is there's no "privileged frame of reference" in relativity. Even if two frames of reference can be arranged to agree on a causal sequence involving FTL phenomena, a third observer can be constructed that perceives the sequence of events happening out of order; they get the light from effect before they get the light from cause.

This creates nasty phenomena that we don't seem to observe in nature (i.e. if the third party observes effect before cause, they can interfere with cause. Everyone loves a good temporal paradox ;) ).

> k8s already uses Wireguard for the service mesh internally.

Kubernetes does not use anything for the service mesh internally - as it does not provide a service mesh.

By this I can only assume you mean some popular CNI provider uses wireguard, but out of the ones I know of (flannel, weave, calico, canal, romana) I don't believe any use wireguard.

And, it emulates two SID chips and has multiple modes (6581 and 8580), so it seems like a pretty darned good deal, honestly.

Real SIDs are pretty pricey these days, and they aren't making any more of them, so they will keep climbing in price for as long as people find them interesting. So, it's good to have an alternative.
It's weird seeing comments like this in HN. The "proven" approach is just a less controversial way of lighting money on fire.

Google wasn't going "all in" on "unproven" technology. They were making a strategic investment in a new market segment using technologies and people that it already was an expert in rather than trying to follow the footsteps of competitors that have several decades lead on them. And they're not betting the bank on stadia. They could turn it off tomorrow and it wouldn't make a blip of difference to the health of the company.

Most of tinc's functionality could be implemented in userspace using the wireguard kernel module, and so wireguard itself won't really need to grow.

The one thing I wish wireguard had was overlapping AllowedIPs with 'ip route via' to distinguish (although this isn't a tinc feature either, unless you run it as an ethernet segment). The same result can be achieved using a separate interface for every peer and 0/0 at each end, but it's a bit unwieldy.

OKRs are simply a way of writing down what you're trying to achieve, and how you'll evaluate progress/success.

You characterise them as an extrinsic motivator, but that's only true if you don't care about the goals. If that's the case, you're probably setting the wrong goals, but setting the wrong goals isn't inherent to OKRs.

Exactly and good examples. I believe the general concept is just sharding, for anyone that wants to google it further. Typically naive sharding on the first few bytes is useless because it results in uneven distributions but (and this is what I mean when I said SHA was designed for this) a cryptographic hash should result in a uniform random-appearing distribution across all its bits, meaning the resulting hash is uniquely suitable for basic sharding by prefix.

But then they wouldn’t have been able to give it a fancy name if they called it what it is.
