Honestly I felt the same way for a while but the more I'm exposed to both Fortune 500 companies and ones who have a handful of employees I see Kubernetes as just a good starting point rather than adopting it later. It removes the overh

You’re better off wiping and reinstalling the OS than trying to clean the system.

While I can’t speak for the others, AWS doesn’t replace all of etcd. Only the raft consensus layer which is replaced with Journal which is an internal AWS service.

Honestly that’s been half the fun of it to me. Trying to out prompt the other players.

All the pressure in the world at work could not make me consider any level of prompt engineering or use of Gen AI. This got me hooked in 5 minutes. I updated my “word” so many times trying to consider edge cases and other tricks people try.

This is already a thing. AWS instance store volumes are directly attached to the host. I’m pretty sure GCP and Azure also have an equivalent local storage option.

No, that’s AWS.

Your problem here is waiting until 1.28 to be released before starting your upgrades from 1.24. A version or two is one thing but 4 versions and you’re just asking to be constantly struggling to keep your head above water.

The idea with Bottlerocket is that the host itself does not have a direct shell nor a way to access it via SSH or any other method. Instead this responsibility is delegated to the admin container which is where you would actually connect to

Well, more or less. The pod IPs are assigned to the host ENIs and not to pods directly. The VPC CNI manages the virtual Ethernet devices in the host and pod network namespaces and sets up routes on the host such that inbound traffic using a

Why even use kubernetes then? You’d be better off just deploying the applications with docker compose on the host.

Well neither of those fall under technology so they have no place on the list.

Yes, that’s the current state of affairs. My bank receives the money in my account from my employer’s bank but it takes a couple days to clear. Right now many banks will make this money available to you right away rather than waiting for it

That’s spot on. I work at a large cloud provider and one of our larger eCommerce customers had an outage in a kubernetes cluster which handled the front end traffic routed through a large CDN provider. Well sure enough “just turn it back on

I’m with you on this. I’d love to be able to replace the thumb cluster on one side with a trackball.

I recently began working for AWS and I love my job. I get a lot of satisfaction in soloing customer issues even when they’re not really AWS related.

Isn’t the downside to this then that although you’re using the native browser you’re losing the whole point of Electron which is to have a consistent environment regardless of where it’s run?

Disclaimer: I work for AWS I think Outpost is a great hybrid-ish solution for those companies with workloads in AWS that want to supplement that with on-premise workloads using the same APIs and tools they are already used to. The use cases

I’ve seen some companies using development clusters and assigning namespaces per user. With MSSQL being able to run in containers they’re able to spin it up quickly and point it to a sanitized version of their production data. If they updat

Just because I happened to be dealing with this today (on Windows with WSL2 but same rules apply) I'll make a comment. The issue I ran into was due to Docker for Desktop binding the local filesystem into the devcontainer running in a W

I may be wrong, but I believe South Korea has a centralized identity system that game companies use so this kind of thing can be tracked and enforced. I wouldn't be against a similar system being used in the USA.

I see where they're coming from and in a lot of ways agree with them. However, I can also see some benefits to this. For the average user, if they can have a government-issued ID tied to their Apple ID that should, in theory, prevent t

That's not an option for most games. That means I now either need to be online-only with a good enough internet connection and latency to stream this game (a la Stadia but worse since it's not just video) or I need to download it
