I don't think there's going to be a shortcut to learning Kubernetes to the point where you'll be comfortable setting up a production-grade cluster.

I recently went down the path of learning it. Even with 6 years of experience using Docker and ~10 years of general deployment / Linux / sysadmin'y experience it took something like 180 hours of no screwing around time to get to the point where I was comfortable putting up a proof of concept production cluster.

Proof of concept in this case means having the cluster up and running to manage multiple services, hooking up multiple external hostnames with external-dns and an AWS Load Balancer controller (I am using EKS). It also involved handling things like running database migrations in a robust way and toying around with nice to haves like preview environments for all PRs. It didn't serve any live customer facing traffic but all of the pieces were there to do it.

The provisioning and managing of the cluster was all adhoc with a mish mash of Bash scripts, eksctl, kubectl and Helm commands. Now I'm transitioning all of that to use Terraform to set up the cluster and every change to the cluster happens through git using ArgoCD to monitor the repo. I'm really happy with the direction things are going. There's no way I could have started here tho, it would have been too many new things to take in at once without knowing the fundamentals.

Long story short, don't try to rush things and skip ahead. It's going to be really important to learn the basics of Kubernetes before trying to automate everything with best practices. I spent a ton of time reading the docs while experimenting with a cluster along with reading hundreds of blog posts and skimming YouTube videos. Every step of the way involved applying what I was learning to a real project and interacting with the cluster in some way.

90% of it was able to be learned with a local cluster running on your dev box.
Instead of preventing competitor products working on your platform, why not spend the energy learning why people avoid Edge in the first place? Forcing unwilling users into a bad product never ends well.
The problem is how they then use this URL type. You see this now in Windows 10 when any links off the lock screen always open in Edge regardless of your default browser.
Around here (Long Island, NY), Cablevision was notorious for the "crazy, desperate ex" approach.

In order to cancel the service, you had to call them, and they would connect you to a "retention specialist."

They would beg, wheedle, lie, manipulate, even threaten.

I remember when I changed from them to Verizon, I had to hang up on the guy.
I don't think left and right are meaningful outside of their political career texts.

I have scanned through so many forums reading anecdotal stories, also downloaded VAERS data, and I definitely see a pattern, but this is not enough of compelling evidence for anyone.

But let's just focus on what could be causing excess deaths during summer.

Scroll to Excess Mortality

See 0-14 age group excess mortality growth during summer (EU approved vaccines for 12+ in May). There has been similar rate variance in winters, but this can be explained by bad flu seasons, there's no such variance ever during summer. If vaccines really were the cause, it means only 12-14 group should be affecting the rate, this means that with 0-11 the growth could be 4x that assuming linear relation.

Also see 15-44 excess which has never been climbing that fast and is much higher than previously in total. You can also include other years from 2016 to compare.

These may not be vaccines, but what is causing this then and why specifically in younger demographics?

I'm honestly looking to understand what could be the explanation here.
Very well summarised.

I like that Haskell has inspired Scala, my main language. While it lacks some of the elegance of Haskell, it is a nice compromise between an advanced and Haskell-inspired type-system and stability for business, plus having the whole JVM ecosystem is awesome.

Therefore, hopefully Haskell keeps advancing and bringing innovations and having them trickle into more mainstream languages.

* People work less than ever before (https://ourworldindata.org/grapher/annual-working-hours-per-...)

* Nobody over 14 should be allowed to use the word "resistance".

* Nobody who isn't a coalminer should be allowed to use the word "exhausted".

* Purity isn't a great way to build a political movement? No shit. In other news, black lipstick and fishnets aren't a great foundation for a wardrobe.

* "The 25th century of my Terra Ignota has fixed some of today’s problems but is still working on others..." Congratulations and how modest of you!... Wait, this is fiction?

* "As I observed in my half-joking 2013 review of Iron Man 3..." Aaaaaaaaaagh.

* "For many people, especially in America, the ideological residue of Puritanism and providentialist Christianity means that pursuing personal purity can feel like a way of helping indirectly with crises like climate or authoritarianism when direct action is intimidating or exhausting."

When StreamLabs came out with SLOBS, OBS didn't even have an OpenCollective or Patreon. They were still getting off the ground.
That's not really true. There was a huge outcry against the removal of (/=).
There are still lots of warts in Prelude and base (head being partial, foldl is in prelude but not foldl').
So yeah, language evolution is still a hard problem
Unfortunately that’s an incredibly weak argument, since the need for safe harbors is a direct consequence of previous oppressive, draconian (and IMHO anti-humanity) legislation.

I absolutely get why EFF is engaging with this from a practical perspective, but the longterm solution is to stop enacting insane and fascist legislation…
I like class based components. I like functional components too when they are appropriate and hooks aren’t involved.

I know how to build testable class based components. I dread the idea of modeling the fine behavior of hooks.

I like objects as a place to hang event handlers. I hate seeing setState in lambdas inside a render() method. For one thing it gets in the way of rapid scanning of the code to know that somebody didn't slip a rogue setState into the render method (have to look at that punctuation.) Another one is that often the exact same behavior gets bound in four places or very similar behavior is bound in 15 places.

I see the hooks as treacherous. On one hand they masquerade as ‘functional’ (will never hear the end of noobs who think they are doing ‘functional programming’) but the order in which the functions are called matters for hooks.

Probably some hooks are properly written but I don’t have a lot of faith; I see so many systems in React that are a house of cards and only work by accidents and hooks seems like a great way to keep that tradition going.
Those fears will be reasonable when most computers will not allow disabling Secure boot. Right now that's not the case for x86.

Curious, whats the difference and why is sudo -i better?
I was unaware of sudo -i (I might as well be a noob though), so I had a quick search to find out more and found this [0]

One question, if I may, could there be any situation (that you can think of, off the top of your head) where using sudo -i would be worse then "sudo su -"

You should probably tell Emacs users about it---they may not have noticed.
This looks nice but is telling you what to do, instead of giving you problems to solve. I don't think this is a good method of teaching.

Edit: After lesson 8 you start to get problems to solve

Edit 2: I take it back, this is the first time I've understood how lookarounds work. Great stuff!

This sounds interesting. Since when have they been doing this, and do you have a link to photos, video or a more detailed description?
I can't say I enjoy firing off a web search for "Windows update" in Bing which appears faster then the local system match for Windows Update somehow (or cynically perhaps by design)

I would say another thing about the CL ecosystem is that all the "little utility functions" on the order of left-pad are all bundled into one dependency — Alexandria — and there are a handful of other libraries that are cross-implementation compatible and widely enough used to be de-facto standards. Three or four dependencies in CL will often get you what would be hundreds of dependencies in JS.
>Regular Expressions, abbreviated as RegEx or RegExp, are a string of characters created within the framework of RegEx syntax rules. You can easily manage your data with RegEx, which uses commands like finding, matching, and editing. Regex can be used in programming languages such as Phyton, SQL, Javascript, R, Google Analytics, Google Data Studio, and throughout the coding process. Learn regex online with examples and tutorials on RegexLearn now.

I always look at these intros/descriptions of Regex with a heavy heart. They describe what regex's are, but none of the info is going to make much sense to someone who doesn't already know why they would want to learn them.

The best motivation for regexes that I've read is actually from a Python Tutorial [0] where the author gives an example of writing a lot of nested 'if' statements that could all be solved by a single regex. On the whole, I think regexes are one of the most powerful tools that doesn't have enough publicity in large part due to this Catch 22 of trying to explain what they are.

Most of your comment is simply not true
What's also a bit of a pain is when you click Show Solution you still have to type it in the box to continue.

Apart from that I love it! I normally use regexr.com and just mess around with it until I get the desired result. It also helps with learning, but you end up never truly understanding the concepts.
Looking for specific AWS resources in multi account AWS cloud?
yes, as long as i kept rotating the crank with my pedals, it would power me forward, regardless of rotation speed
That's what it starts out, then it tests you with some problems to solve based on what you learned before.
> speed traps that just trigger a red light

Much better than what I've seen in my (US) city: speed limit 30 mph, but lights timed for 40-45 mph to get a continuous green light down the one-way street. Either you speed, opening you to tickets, or you stop needlessly on lights that are set for a faster speed than you are traveling.
Other countries do, and it works fine. Why not?
> With your reasoning, all software that gives you a choice, anything that can be configured, all programming languages etc. etc., become fragile, because as soon as someone says "I did this but I didn't like the result," your case has been proved

That's not at all true. It's called "validation" and "error handling". What kind of farce are you getting at? You unironically think a text editor that lets you break its settings panel by trying to use the settings panel normally isn't fragile?

My very limited experience with Blue Apron was that it was easy enough to cancel. But pretty much all the meal services, as far as I can tell,work on the subscribe and then you have to cancel model. Which makes them pretty uninteresting to me.

I might give a service a try for a week here and there but I definitely don't want one week in and week out. And I don't want to deal with signing up and then (hopefully if all goes well) immediately canceling. Dark pattern.

That <1% death rate is only with every serious infected getting adequate care. If the disease went further out of control and intensive-care, oxygen etc. was no longer available it would be much higher.
not at all, but our devops guy ragequit the job and I want to be able to help piece things together if fire emerges, or help the team. Every engineer has some knowledge so together we're able to handle most of it. I want to use this opportunity to learn more.

It's sad that you assume the worst in people.
If you can write javascript that solves problems you are a software engineer. Your skill level will vary in comparison to other people but there is no reason you can't call yourself a software engineer.

If you want continue to increase your skill level then the best way is to start branching out in the set of tools you can comfortably use. Write a small API server, Create some command line utilities for yourself, learn some different programming languages.

On each new think increase the difficulty level a bit. Push yourself, you'll continue to grow and your skill level will continue to vary in comparison to other because of it.
So you can’t grasp that most other people might do things differently because you’ve done it one way for a long time?
I wouldn't put anything pass these guys (MS). Don't think you are overly paranoid. With MS, they backdoors, one can NEVER be too paranoid.
The precedence of the words depends on what compiler version you're using.
>Every religion teaches the same basic social principles in some way or another.

This is often repeated, seldom examined up close. It's true only in the vaguest sense, that "be good" is a common theme and that there are some overlaps in what constitutes good.

You usually need to get into the esoteric theology to find modern notions of equality in traditional religions. Many religions actually teach the opposite: "know your place".
It's what young people would refer to as a "weird flex".
You sure DHCP can’t do that? That surprises me given how many options it has. Maybe your server implementation just can’t.
This would make sense if (and only if) all other things are equal. In reality it is slightly more complicated than that.

The second-largest chain, Jumbo, will happily accept my AMEX credit card. In many cases, the groceries are even (slightly) cheaper there. That's why it has been my preferred place to do the groceries for years. But I find my self goes to ah much more often than Jumbo recently, simply because I moved and there is one right across the street.
Corporations are made by people and are led by people. I wish we get rid of the limited responsibility stuff. You're the CEO, you go to jail. This would probably break large companies in a multitude of much smaller ones to manage risks. How many people can you manage and be reasonably sure don't do something that sends you to jail? Not many. We would still have software, FOSS demonstrate it, and entrepreneurs would still find a way to create new things.
>There is little evidence of such analysis being suppressed.

...

>Most people who care about this research are indeed crackpots, unfortunately.

Where is the evidence to support this statement?
But you do still have to secure the S3 buckets, right? And I guess also secure the infrastructure you have to deploy in order to run Databricks. Plus then configure for cross-AZ failover etc. So you get flexibility, but I would think at the cost of much more human labor to get it up and running.

Snowflake uses the Arrow data format with their drivers, so is plenty fast enough when retrieving data in general. But it would be way less efficient if a data scientist just does a SELECT * to bring everything back from a table to load into a notebook.

Snowflake has had Scala support since earlier in the year, along with Java UDFs, and also just announced Python support - not a Python connector, but executing Python code directly on the Snowflake platform. Not GA yet though.
Doesn't seem like much has changed, Windows 10 was always nagging me to restore my default browser back to the "recommended" one.

Currently I have a permanent icon on the top of my settings panel "Web browsing: restore recommended" that I can't remove unless I go back to Edge.
I've done all this in past and am familiar with it, but I'd be interested in one-step-after-this thing :)
I cancelled my wsj subscription the other day, I had to call to cancel which is insulting but it only took 5 minutes. Wonder if someone sued them in between our cancellations. I actually cancelled because I found out call to cancel was their policy. Wont do business with companies that have this process.
Agreed. They are all over the place and don't take good care of the only important thing, which is the browser. If I want a vpn, I will get a vpn. Same with email alias. This is yet another distraction. I'm not very optimistic.
Hahaha, yes, it's mBank :-)
“it's how they make sufficient income to operate.”
No.
This is how the practice parasitism on the poor.
Indeed, this is exactly the point.

The argument is not that we need a false belief, but rather that we need to view ourselves as free on one level to learn efficiently, even if we know we are not free on another level of abstraction.
Most ppl mix up these two level of abstraction though.
The No True Scotsman argument. I see.

Public relations is concerned exactly with this.
The first thing I thought of. Apparently not.
Whilst journalist/PR summaries are so notoriously bad they're a punchline when you talk to actual researchers, I think we have to be charitable here and acknowledge that most communication about COVID doesn't have the luxury of writing about every single trial registered (or making puns on the word "fluke"!) So it tends to summarise it as "initially promising results for Invermectin were fraudulent, whilst large trials found no effect at all. Also it has side effects, like most other drugs, so the people ordering it in doses for horses aren't being as clever as they think" which isn't nearly as entertaining or as thorough as Scott's writing, but is a broadly accurate summary of the state of scientific evidence.

(Of course you can also summarise it as "there's weak evidence for Invermectin having some therapeutic benefit which is probably related to preexisting conditions"... but we know how quickly that snowballs into "Invermectin stops COVID, scientists ADMIT IT" by the same people that deny the much stronger evidence for vaccine efficacy. Science journalism is bad, but not as bad as the selective reading of it.)

It seems a bit disingenuous to say "emacs can do everything" citing org, slime, and auctex, which are probably the three highest-quality extensions out there (maybe throw in magit too). In my experience this level of polish is not consistent, e.g. python or java support is much less robust. Emacs is indeed great for many things, but not everything.

You are right - based on the numbers given at the start of the article, and a density of clay around 1700 Kg/M3, if one kept within the footprint of the tower, it seems one would have to excavate ~100 feet down to create a sufficient volume (less, of course, if you can broaden the chamber beyond that footprint, but I guess the scope for that is limited - and, on the other hand, the landfill layer may be less dense than clay.)

Probably not legal, but in the sense that you could get sent to collections for what you owe vs getting charged with a crime. If the company wanted to be difficult I think they could keep billing you and then send you to collections and likely most people would pay to avoid court costs and continued credit degradation.
HTTP does a lot of things right, but it’s almost completely oblivious to the contents of requests/responses. Things like DNS also have to specify what a query looks like, and the format for the response.
