You are misinformed. MicroK8s and K3s can get a full-fledged Kubernetes setup running in less than a minute. I run a five-node cluster at home and it is a breeze. Edit: I forgot about HyperiotOS, which is another viable option. MicroK8s has

I highly recommend Kubernetes as infrastructure. It has a reputation for being too complex to use on your own or with simple projects but that reputation is undeserved. Self-healing container orchestration has been eye-opening for me. Many

First of all, the “I don’t understand it therefore I assume it is bad and wrong until proven otherwise” trope is a tired one. Secondly, Rust does a great job of documenting its features so these questions are usually already answered. Why A

I recommend you read the article’s legal input before you try this for yourself. Apparently the best case scenario is that those who exploit this pay restitution and the worst case is that they are tried for securities fraud.

What constitutes a generic term? Could I use Rottweiler as a trademarked brand? What about Dog or Canine? What if I combined “generic” terms like DogHead? I think this proposal is too obtuse. These cases bother us because the man who founde

The Casio A168WA-1 has an alarm, a stopwatch, an optional hourly beep, 12 and 24-hour clocks and a light so you can tell the time even when the sun is down. It costs less than $20 on Amazon. It may not be good enough for a tech billionaire

A soviet is a local official (elected, I think) in Communism. It is not necessarily tied to the USSR. The soviet system was in place at this time, as is mentioned throughout the article.

This looks interesting but I could never fully commit to it because it seems to run as a SaaS product. If I am building a personal knowledge compendium I want to own and manage that data myself, it’s not enough to just have access.

Everything that you need to know about the author’s reasoning is in the “prestige” section. He claims that it is prestigious and therefore good to have a CS degree with no explanation of his logic. This is not a reasoned conclusion, it is a

Gwyneth Paltrow should be in prison. She found the perfect victims in women who are too wealthy to garner public sympathy. She found the perfect crime in one that is so obvious that one would be embarrassed to admit to having been a victim.

I love progressive death metal. I love that the songs are loud and visceral, then soft and nuanced. I love the complexity and technicality. But I don’t play it on the speakers in my thinly-walled apartment, nor do I play it out loud in publ
