It' so excellent to see more "tiny" distros for Kubernetes. The resource requirements of the control plane has plummeted lately, and it'll be exciting to see more IoT devices running the full k8s api. At any rate, we hav

Ack, will look at that bug! No, the templates are currently plain YAML with a handle-bars style variable replacement (and a couple other neat tricks). We do support Helm charts tho, I just haven't had time to add them to the "Temp

Awesome! hajimari is neat, haven't seen that before. I'm building a startup that's trying to put a good chunk of this in a box for folks to buy and plug-n-play self-hosting (as much as that is possible). Since you're run

We're in the process of building an alternative to Google Photos over at https://kubesail.com . You can use it now with a spare PC, or buy our custom designed hardware at https://pibox.io . Today we're preppi

Oh absolutely and I hope my tone captured that it’s not clear if the bets work out. Sometimes yes, sometimes no. Vienna spending all its economic output on art and science sure didn’t help against a country who spent its entire output on ta

In some ways you're not wrong, but this was the mentality of East Germany as well. Why waste time with Jazz and jeans? Much more efficient to be reading didactics or working in a factory. Maybe China is the best anyone has ever been at

There ought to be a name for this paradox. Maybe this is out of left field but I've called it the "stimpack & herion" problem. If I was playing a game, and I was the general of an army, and I could tell my marines to &quo

As a founder, there is no company the same age as mine I am more jealous of than fly.io. Looking forward to moving one of our products over to fly as soon as time allows :)

Heh, I'm writing an essay on this topic currently. It's so strange that Cloud is worth a trillion dollars, web3/crypto is worth as much, and self-hosting is... completely obscure? With multiple global satellite internet servi

Well sure but that's exactly my point - anybody with some education . It wasn't until around the 1600s, being generous (really the 1800s), that it even started to become common knowledge or taught in schools (or that the western

Exactly. And then in their own way, some more… stupid than others, they try to recreate their own science from observation. That they’re stuck with phenomenology is no surprise - that’s more or less how all human beings have seen the world

My car was stolen and I was told by the police they couldn’t do anything at all (even while I had real-time tracking). Only after my father in law, a retired LAPD homicide detective gave his friend at the station a call did they give us a r

It’s genuinely some new form of conservatism. Imagine if the phone phreakers had stopped and given up “because someone might get hurt”. Imagine a hacker forum in the 80s cheering on the FCC. To be clear I don’t care about Tesla here - just

This topic aside, I guess I just feel like if the Hacker community is saying “don’t build things! It’s dangerous! What if someone gets hurt! Go DMV! Put a stop to that!”, then maybe I don’t want to be a Hacker anymore.

I would guess the implication is that almost all phones are built in China. So "Chinese cellphones" is a curious term - "Cellphones designed by Chinese firms" and "Cellphones manufactured in China" are wildly d

While I'm not sure about some of the half-said political attitude in this post, I do strongly believe in what the author is getting at, and am also building a company for "the Small Web". 1 I've been working on an essa

If human beings can expand to other worlds, or live in space easily, or even just access enough resources to stabilize at 10B human beings with zero poverty - then we can turn the Earth into an Eden - so conceptually nothing could be more e

Yes! If you're into ML, I recommend checking out https://www.kubeflow.org/ as a way of learning Kube (after you grok the basics). You can do some really neat things with a cloud-like API, especially if you can slap it

Exactly, and this is where the concept of "Pod" really shines. Sharing networking and filesystems between containers is, from time to time, exactly the right strategy, as long as it can be encapsulated.

You’re forgetting that it also has hoards of naysayers clamoring to be the loudest to say “it will never work”. So, at least in that limited sense, it very much feels revolutionary.

Or if you bought a Tesla 3 to 8 years ago - the “waste” is probably made up for by allowing Tesla to survive financially. But yes - wildly complicated. I’d imagine any honest thinker has to retreat to “I suppose it’s unmeasurable”, which is

I mean, it is called Hacker news. Not to be flippant, but if you want trusted, known, secure, official, warranty-backed behavior, you might go read like, CNET or something instead?

The premise seems to be that IPFS takes too many resources because of DHT, and DHT takes too many resources because it opens too many connections. Possibly a single setting needs to be tuned based on a discovered connection thruput? If the

Sorry, what other category? The logical inverse of "unvaccinated folks who caught covid now asking for vaccines" is... "vaccinated folks who didn't get covid who now want to be... unvaccinated?". I guess I don'

Well, without using any special software is tricky, but I’m building a startup that offers this sort of tunneling for home-hosting purposes. As for “special”-software-less, you might have to wait for IPV6 and a hosting-friendly ISP.

Agreed. Dockerfiles beat ansible scripts which in turn beat that-bash-script-that-PXE-ran. Skaffold and kubernetes are amazing tools, but just tools. So much easier to be cynical about new tools than to investigate and understand the pros a

I think they are equally right, honestly. But between you and those people, you’re not equally condescending.

I’m kind of tired of hearing about NFTs - cool, you added a store to your game - who cares? But I’m very tired of hearing why NFTs are a scam. Cool, you don’t want to buy video games skins that way - who cares ?!? I’ve heard -one- good a
