Kustomize feels like less of a hack to me, without the gotpl madness, but it’s way more painful to get something done in my experience. I’ve landed on just writing real code to craft the objects I want (using the actual types, not text), if

Seattle is brimming with “new money”. I think the article is describing a sort of quasi intellectualism that is common in circles of people who are more educated than some, and paid more than most.

Sort of. The hand-written go types are the source of truth and the proto definitions are generated from there, solely for the purpose of generating protobuf serializers for the hand-written go types. The proto definition is used more as an

My recollection is that for a period of time, as a part of the internal “Move to AWS” (MAWS) campaign, the entire retail business ran within a single VPC. A lot has changed!

I’m regularly shown ads on Instagram for a company called “Willow”, which openly markets itself as a source of GLP-1’s for people who don’t meet the medical criteria. “I just want to lose 15 pounds before my beach vacation!” That type of th

Yikes, what a dastardly move from Synadia. This will only have a chilling effect on the project, which has struggled to reach critical mass.

Didn’t SQLite developer(s) famously receive a flood of phone calls because McAfee antivirus used it in a way that was visible (and “suspicious”) to its users? One does not simply “not accept bug reports”. https://github.com/

I was a heavy tiktok user for the last couple years, before uninstalling the app a couple months ago. It was a lot of fun, truly, but I felt the habit (and its side effects) going in a direction I didn’t like. I still have IG and FB on my p

I bought a very cheap Vizio TV around that time (I was in college) that didn't include a remote in the box. You had to use the app. I'm sure I'm messing up some of the details, but -- The TV needed to be connected to a netw

SWEs: are SRE/devops folks part of your day to day? I have never been in a SWE role where I didn’t do my own “ops”, even at FAANG (I haven’t worked at Google). I know "SRE/devops" was/is buzzy in the industry, but i

It’s a weird post. Part cry for help, part not-so-humble brag, and 100% not something any close friend, significant other, or therapist would recommend you hit send on. Feels a little strung-out, to be honest. “Rich guy is bored, you’ll n
