I was surprised to find that someone left a brief "thank you" issue on one of my open source projects (a Kubernetes hairpin proxy to fix issues with cert-manager and LoadBalancers) and it feels great to know that the right people are finding it and resolving the same problem that led me to build it.
I humbly hope that sharing this might inspire more humanity and gratitude in the open source community.
- SingAlong 6y agoThank you for sharing this. Even though it is a compliment for you and your project, it made my as a solo maker.
- ryanschneider 6y agoWith the added benefit that many (like myself) may dig in and learn about the PROXY protocol for the first time. So doubly thanks for sharing this!
- intsunny 6y agoI'm always amazed at how more people do not know about the Proxy protocol. (Also why is this not an RFC?) I suspect one reason is because the cloud vendors push hard for layer 7 routing, and cloud managed cert management. (ie: ALB and ACM.) These have a lot of vendor lock-in, whereas k8s layer 4 ingress and cert-manager do not.
- lukewrites 6y agoSimilarly, I got a shoutout/tag on a PR that used some of my code. It made my day, and made me assume that the org the engineer works in must be a pretty good place to work.
- m_sahaf 6y agoYour Circuit Lab project was great and really helpful when I studied circuit analysis. That's the project I've known you for. Thank you for that!
