This totally matches my experience from two different perspectives.

1. Working as a programmer perspective: I worked at a company with good practices but so-so revenue. What happens: horribly underpaid salary, nice laptop (but not the one I want), nice working conditions. I am now working at a company with pretty great revenue and mediocre practices. What happens: good salary, I get the laptop I want (not the one I need), working conditions are mediocre.

2. UX perspective (I did a bootcamp for fun): UX'ers make throwaway prototypes all the time in order to validate a certain hypothesis. When that's done, they create the real thing (or make another bigger throwaway prototype).

I feel this is the best approach, from a business standpoint. This also means you have different kind of developers and it depends on the stage what kind they are. I'd separate it as prototype stage, mid-stage and massive scale stage.
Only 5 years? For a "prank" resulting in somebody's death? It's a sad world to live in :(
>I’m betting

You are betting very wrongly. People use large amounts of older literature. Maybe not in your territory - well, be aware then that many cultures do.

>Unfortunately, most people

That the median individual should be considered a parameter is very controversial. (Contextually: services are very easily for interested minorities.)

>overestimate the long-term value

As if Project Gutenberg had not arguably been one of the most important endeavours in history.

Do you speak respectfully when you speak to others, and can you respect others while you speak to them?

The problem might be in how you speak, what words and phrasings you choose, rather than the contents of opinions and perspectives.

A study after each conversation, might reveal that each people involved might've had entirely different experiences about the conversation. That would reveal the gap.
I’m sad to see you being downvoted. I agree completely. Somehow the richest company in the world paying for this burden on us all is a bad idea :/
Neither of those things requires immediate response (in order of minutes), or lives are lost.

I’m as disgusted with this story as most seem to be, but I don’t think running KYC and asking for documentation of the emergency is a good idea for 999 calls.
> Embargoes don’t work, to a reasonably accurate approximation.

False. Embargos rarely change governments by themselves, but they do cripple nations. They give populations another reason to protest their current regime, as seen last week in Cuba.

For example, the US embargo on military airplane parts to Iran means most of the jets purchased by the Shah don't work reliably. Mission accomplished.

For those who don't know any better, the outcome of the US Democratic/Marxist party looks like Cuba, if not stopped.
From what I’ve understood, that is a correct impression.

From all of the low-ops K8s distributions, k3s[0] is the best from perspective of inital setup, maintenance and usage on less powerful hardware.

There are even now higher-level tools such as k3os and k3sup to further reduce the initial deployment pains.

MicroK8s prides with 'No APIs added or removed'. That's not that positive in my book. K3s on the other hand actively removes the alpha APIs to reduce the binary size and memory usage. Works great if you only use stable Kubernetes primitives.

> And that's for the core desktop (launcher + config apps). It gets worse with regular apps. Some being GTK and others KDE/QT based, some use bizarro or legacy frameworks, some with custom cross-platform UIs that kind of match the look of just GTK apps usually, and so on.

To be fair, I don't think Windows has had this advantage over Linux for over 20 years. Maybe macOS has, but in Windows, almost every application is built with a weird custom proprietary toolkit. Even Office and Visual Studio, Microsoft's flagship Windows programs, are. That desktop Linux only has two major toolkits is a blessing. With the rise of UWP and official Microsoft Electron apps like VS Code and Teams, it's not even clear what the look and feel of a native Windows program is supposed to be anymore.
Not sure I understand what you say. But a repo for a library that is used only internally in an application does not need to be published to "customers"(real external customers or internal customers such as another microservice). Therefore interfaces of this library can be changed "at will" as long as all internal users are adapted.
I once bought some pure botulinum toxin for an experiment (it blocks the release of acetyl choline at neuromuscular junctions). I want to say it was a milligram, but I don’t remember (that would have been 1000 times the lethal dose by inhalation). We had to get special export permission from the US government.

When the tiny vial arrived in a very large multilayered package, I sat down and read the Materials Safety Datasheet and contemplated the implications. I then decided never to open the package. We stored it under a big hollow block of concrete until the hazardous waste disposal people could figure out what to do with it.
India alone is ~15% of the world's population, and we drive on the left. Although the number of drivers may be significantly less as a percentage.
The second quote resonates well with the old Joel Spolsky blog post "Fire and Motion" [1].

Deploying k8s has gotten a lot easier these days -- some alternatives in this space:

- https://docs.k0sproject.io (https://github.com/k0sproject/k0s)

- https://k3s.io (https://github.com/k3s-io/k3s/)

k0s is my personal favorite and what I run, the decisions they have made align very well with how I want to run my clusters versus k3s which is similar but slightly different. Of course you also can't go wrong with kubeadm[0][1] -- it was good enough to use minimally (as in you could imagine sprinkling a tiny bit of ansible and maintaining a cluster easily) years ago, and has only gotten better.

The whole thing was "it must be simple, even if the user needs to spend more time learning it" which is only true for people who learn the thing and keep on using it. For us who come back to a project after months (because we switch between tech stacks) it might be just twice the amount of work, if you need to relearn it every time.
MS Windows Defender is generally good (I actually prefer it and preferred its SecurityEssentials predecessor to all the other antiviruses) but seems really notorious in removing non-virus "threats". It also removes NirSoft (and some Sysinternals IIRC) utilities regularly. Yesterday, trying to download the recent version of LibreOffice, I have even found found out I have no qBitTorrent installed any more - it killed it also. I really wish I could just put a regex filter to bulk-allow some classes of "threats" ("HackTool:" and "PUA:") permanently.
We are using Defender at work, too. There is a group policy that lets Defender do a full system scan once a week.

To not interfere with the user there allegedly is a group policy setting to limit the CPU usage and it is set to 15%. The thing is, it simply does not work. Every week my fans spin up to max, Defender hogs all my CPU cores, 25% of my GPU according to the Task Manager. Even typing becomes laggy.

The only way to stop it is to open Task Scheduler and end the scheduled task from there.
The first Metal version didn't provide much low-level access, but the later Metal versions gradually added more low-level, more explicit features. The key point is that those features can be ignored if the higher level and more convenient features are good enough.
> You can define your migration in a Kubernetes job and then have an initContainer trigger the job while also using kubectl to watch the job's status to see if it's complete.

Much simpler way is to run migration in init container itself. Most SQL migration frameworks know about locks and transactions, so concurrent migrations wont run anyway
> Browsers really should have an option to automatically cache your bookmarks offline.

Isn't that the default already, and has always been? I mean, most browsers I've ever used save your bookmarks to a file on your computer.

Yes it's changed massively, but it's recent - only since 2019.

Do you mean connectivity to the outside, or inside the cluster? The examples of Kubernetes and similar things in such scenarios I've seen usually had stable connectivity between nodes. E.g. an edge scenario would be one tiny well-connected cluster per location, remote-controlled over the (bad) external link through the API.

In 2020 swatting someone in the USA must be seen as equivalent to hiring an armed gang of street thugs. (From the victims/attackers perspective at least. The SWAT team acted appropriately given what they knew).

Thanks for mentioning K3sup [0]

I used Microk8s on a client project late last year and it was really painful, but I am sure it serves a particular set of users who are very much into the Snap/Canonical ecosystem.

In contrast, K3s is very light-weight and can be run in a container via the K3d project.

If folks want to work with K8s upstream or development patches against Kubernetes, they will probably find that KinD is much quicker and easier.

Minikube has also got a lot of love recently, and can run without having a dependency on Virtual Box too.

This is a repeat of the same argument. An unrealistic hypothetical does not establish that we need to consider something in the real world. Hypothetically perhaps UFO's were beaming ideas into the cops' heads, hence we cannot trust their statements and need an alternative data source. Nope, this is preposterous so we can go ahead and not worry about concerns based solely on this argument.
Well, "complain on hn" has been a way to get stuff from Google. Maybe someone at archive will notice this thread.

Why? In its smallest form k8s is a few go processes handling a proxy and some container scheduling/runtime logic.

Sure if you run an entire control plane on the edge you're adding more complexity... but you don't have to do that, and control planes are complex beasts by their nature.
>Seems to me Uber has always been unsustainable (they're billions in the red, spending to capture market share) but they were hoping to have self driving cars to eliminate drivers by now.

I'm starting to think it is a rational strategy. Grow at a loss during a recession and make profits during the coming boom. Of course, the fact that they are still growing at a loss implies that we aren't out of the recession yet.

there's a very famous hospital / research institute here in france ( ihu marseille), who has treated more than 20k patient with its own protocol involving HCQ (among other things), claiming for more than a year that it has a noticeable impact on the patient outcome.

They're not politicians, not gurus selling snake oil. They're actually a group of professor of medecine (PUPH, highest level of qualification in france), running a large, government funded public health institution.

And they have been posting weekly updates on their youtube channel, based on their data from their own patients ( as well as very interesting specialized researcher presentation about the virus)

Proving a negative is difficult.

Not an expert but from what I understand;

Hydroxychloroquine suppresses the immune system which is apparently beneficial if covid-19 causes an overreaction or cytokine swarm in your body.

But steroids, specifically dextramethasone also do that and are much safer with less side effects.

Does chloroquine provide additional medical benefits that the steroids don't? I don't know and wonder as well.

I am guessing the commenter means computing with and without use of your fingers on touch screens.
Care to explain why? And what industry you're talking about?

Kubernetes has made efforts for nodes to work with poor network connectivity.

The node requirements aren't that big.

A lot of use cases are relatively easy to containerise.

And edge / IoT devices are getting more powerful as well.

They aren't talking about consumer IoT here as well.

It has become a meme that Kubernetes is complicated. But it solves a lot of orchestration problems that would need to be implemented in other ways.

K8S does very simple stateless case well, but anything more complicated and you are on your own. Statefull services is still a major pain especially thus with leader elections. There is not feedback to K8S about application state of the cluster, so it can't know which instancess are less disruptive to shut down or which shard needs more capacity.

The claim was that the old Battery tunnel had earthquake issues. I don't believe it would have been more expensive to put a liner in than bore a new tunnel with a liner. What use to put it to? More capacity! Could have run light rail through it. Made it a bike tunnel. Make it a pedestrian mall.

The big cost of boring tunnels is the boring machine. At minimum, they could have simply kept right on boring. Doubtless Seattle could use a lot more tunnels for mass transit. Seattle has a terrible right-of-way problem, mainly because they wrecked all the rail right-of-way.

I don't see the issue with just storing it at the end of the tunnel. It wouldn't be long before it was clear another tunnel would be needed.

Citation would be helpful. "Fully proven" is a pretty high bar.
Defender, as per Windows 10 philosophy, is extremely annoying to use with its UI and behavior that makes you feel every setting and button you press is entirely useless and nothing will change. A shame the old Security Essentials UI was removed entirely, it was the only bearable hack-y way to use it. I just disable it permanently on every machine. The anti-malware service likes to eat disk activity when you're working, and most importantly, exceptions handling is useless: I've seen it delete or quarantine (and then delete) files put into exceptions multiple times, repeatedly, as if the exception list was getting reset, or expired. This kind of software behavior is unacceptable in any way or form.
