If inflation is stable (and low-ish), then stickiness doesn't matter.

Sticky prices are only important, when expectations are invalidated.

So to fix your sentence:

> If wages are stickier than expenses, then the gap between wages and expenses will represent recent unexpected inflation to some degree.

I'm always kind of blown away by experiences like this. Admittedly, I've been using Kubernetes since the early days and I manage an Infra team that operates a couple thousand self-managed Kubernetes clusters so... expert blindness at work. Before that I did everything from golden images to pushing changes via rsync and kicking a script to deploy.

Maybe it's because I adopted early and have grown with the technology it all just makes sense? It's not that complicated if you limit yourself to the core stuff. Maybe I need to write a book like "Kubernetes for Greybeards" or something like that.

What does fucking kill me in the Kubernetes ecosystem is the amount of add-on crap that is pitched as "necessary". Sidecars... so many sidecars. Please stop. There's way too much vendor garbage surrounding the ecosystem and dev's rarely stop to think about whether they should deploy something when it's easy as dropping in some YAML and letting the cluster magically run it.

I think this is only true if the original k8s cluster you're operating against was written by an expert and laid out as such.

If you're entering into k8s land with someone else's very complicated mess across hundreds of files, you're going to be in for a bad time.

A big problem, I feel, is that if you don't have an expert design the k8s system from the start, it's just going to be a horrible time; and, many people, when they're asked to set up a k8s setup for their startup or whatever, aren't already experts, so the thing that's produced is not maintainable.

And then everyone is cursed.
Notably all the benchmarks you provide are synthetic and not achievable by developers. I more care about real benchmarks for real developers, that they can see in their daily working lifes.
Right. There's probably an alternate reality where it's easy for anyone to own a domain and configure CNAME's for services they use like https://bluesky.yourname.com.
In the real world, for web things, people use django or fastapi. I'd suggest picking a project with lots of stackoverflow questions and poking around their docs to see which makes you the most comfortable. Personally I tend to favor litestar these days since it has good docs and issues don't sit around for years waiting on one dude to merge prs (fastapi) and it's a lot nicer than django (and I hate django docs).

Flask/quart are painful to work with due to horrible documentation in my experience, but they're popular too. Quart is just an async rewrite of flask by the same owners.

Litestar has a half baked comparison chart here: https://docs.litestar.dev/latest/

We dabbled with Cloud Run and Cloud Functions (which as of v2 are just a thin layer over Cloud Run anyways).

While they worked fine for HTTP workloads, we wanted to use them to consume from Pub/Sub and unfortunately the "EventArc" integrations are all HTTP-push based. This means there's no back pressure, so if you want the subscription to buffer incoming requests while your daemons work away there's no graceful way to do this. The push subscription will just ramp up attempting to DoS your Cloud Run service.

GKE is more initial overhead (helm and all that junk) but using a vanilla, horizontally scaled Kubernetes deployment with a _pull_ subscription solves this problem completely.

For us, Cloud Run is just a bit too opinionated and GKE Autopilot seems to be the sweet spot.
That animated ad is a total turn-off.

> I don't understand why AWS doesn't put more effort into Cognito without messing with pricing. It is such an effective loss-leader

AWS team\org business priorities, like P&L computation, changed pretty drastically in 2022-23.

Historically there were a lot of services built, run, and measured on the idea of solving customers diverse needs and making AWS a better place to run your business. This isnt a “loss leader” per se, but 1) profitability may not be your highest business prioirty 2) customers & shareholders valued growth & diversity of offerings above almost everything else 3) business units would set forward looking pricing based on marginal rates 2-3 years out under better utilization models 4) services would not-uncommonoly use “attribution” or “flow through” revenue models for P&L. Eg autoscaling doesnt have a meaningfully price, but it drives (hypothetically) 3% of EC2 instance hours. Autoscaling than books a portion of the 3% of instance hour revenue to their profit center. Cognito (or Route 53 or SSM where I worked) would use this sort of P&L model.

Circa 2022 AMZn shareholders, amazon execs, and the market more broadly turned to Revenue and Profit as the goal, no longer growth per se. This drastically changed a lot of internal business models. No more “free rides”, book revenue, define and execute a plan to be a many million dollar direct revenue business, the old “growth and better together” story wasnt selling.

And i dont think thats a bad thing per se, as a shareholder. I appreciate the focus on proving your value via pricing and usage. But there will be some sad “abandonware” and service shutdowns over the next few years.

Ask HN: Should I disclose my disability when applying for jobs?
I have a mental disability. It affected my career in the past but since getting diagnosed and treated for it a few years ago my career has improved significantly and I have been able to put in consistent work.

My disability is not obvious or visible. Up until now I have only told close family.

Recently, I have been considering job hunting to try to improve my salary. I currently make around 50k USD. I'm based in Japan so this salary is not terribly low but also not that high.

In Japan, companies have a requirement to hire a certain percentage of disabled people. Looking at the Google recruitment site I can see they have a program (gReach) specifically for registered disabled people.

Is it a good idea to disclose my disability during the application process? On one hand I feel like it might encourage companies to interview/hire me to fill their quota. On the other hand I worry that companies may be prejudiced against disabled people and use it to disqualify my application.

>Last time it was on the table the deal was so good PLO realized it could be forced into a real two state solution with peace and permanent borders.

This is not true. I am not interested in whatever labels the Israeli or Palestinians might ascribe to their agreements. There has never been an instance where the PLO was offered something that resembles a modern, economically and politically independent nation-state. The closest was in 2001 under Bill Clinton, but Israel refused the conditions set by Clinton while the PLO accepted them.

>Let's also for completeness include that PLO want to eradicate Israel, and are brazen enough to have it in their official charter.

Again, much like the Likud party's own charter, from a realist perspective this is irrelevant. What's relevant is what both parties are realistically capable of doing, and the balance of power clearly favours Israel.

“It works” is a terrible defence, because of the different degrees of working.

I’m describing various specific ways in which it doesn’t work properly, in ways that stop users from doing things they may legitimately want to do, or which will frustrate some users, and you’re just disregarding them. I’m not being vague in most of my complaints, I’m being very specific.

Right, there's something odd about this. That image from 2022 of a person's legs [Kiberphant0m?] in army fatigues ought to be a dead giveaway. For starters why would anyone be stupid enough to do that, second I'd recon the floor pattern alone might be enough to reveal the person, again why do that? Surely those involved would have have thought of that? Alternately they're on the room-temperature side of dumb.

Of course, that doesn't include the image being a ruse for other schema.
> Just feels like lots of devs will take whatever random configs they find online and throw them over the fence, so now you just have a big tangled mess for your CRUD app.

Agree.

To reduce the chance a dev pull some random configs out of nowhere, we maintain a Helm template that can be used to deploy almost all of our services in a sane way, just replace the container image and ports. The deployment is probably not optimal, but further tuning can be done after the service is up and we have gathered enough metrics.

We've also put all our configs in one place, since we found that devs tend to copy from existing configs in the repo before searching the internet.

Why exactly did they have 47 clusters? One thing I noticed (maybe because I’m not at that scale) is that companies are running 1+ clusters per application. Isn’t the point of kubernetes that you can run your entire infra in a single cluster, and at most you’d need a second cluster for redundancy, and you can spread nodes across regions and AZs and even clouds?

I think the bottleneck is networking and how much crosstalk your control nodes can take, but that’s your architecture team’s job?

> Admittedly, I've been using Kubernetes since the early days and I manage an Infra team

I think this is where the big difference is. If you're leading a team and introduced all good practices from the start, then the k8s and Terraform or whatever config files can never get so very complicated that a Gordian knot isn't created.

Perhaps k8s is nice and easy to use - many of the commands certainly are, in my experience.

Developers have, over years and decades, learned how to navigate code and hop from definition to definition, climbing the tree and learning the language they're operating in, and most of the languages follow similar-enough patterns that they can crawl around.

Configuring a k8s cluster has absolutely none of that knowledge built up; and, reading something that has rough practices is not a good place to learn what it should look like.
GCR assumes it's workload is HTTP, or a "job" (container that exits once it's task has completed). It scales on request volume and CPU, and the load balancer is integrated into the service. It's not obvious to me how you'd even run a "raw" TCP service like pgbouncer on it.
