There’s more to Docker Desktop than just “oh it’s just docker underneath” 1. Unified experience across Windows, Mac, Linux 2. The security posture is much stronger by default. Many people, who would probably be considered the “target audien

I’m not even arguing against systemd or not. I’m just stating that Linux being technologically inferior because of something-something corporate overlords is… silly

Trying to act superior with your oft-broken OS. “Inferior technology stack”. Didn’t I just read a few days ago about pf queues just now breaking 4Gbps? Look me up, I’ve written a lot about high speed networking. How are those containers wor

Reminds me of a time many years ago when I received a whole case of Intel NICs all with the same MAC address. It was an interesting couple of days before we figured it out.

No kidding. Using cert-manager with my DNS on cloudflare or GKE is about the easiest and most mindless and zero-friction LE implementation I’ve ever used.

The author mostly lost me when he started doing comparative line counts between docker swarm and kubernetes. And the docker swarm example didn’t even accomplish the same thing.
40.
by k_roy 8mo ago
The author here repeatedly claims that teams would function identically on Swarm and are wasting resources using Kubernetes. You don’t even need to be a mid-sized team to need stuff like RBAC, service mesh, multi-cluster networking, etc. Cl

My main exposure to this was just in a couple of online social communities. 1. AI happens 2. Every response (that are often memes in themselves), is complaining about the AI. Hell, some of them were clever in the way a brand new meme templa

by k_roy 10mo ago
Shrug. Sure. Point still stands. It’s not going anywhere. And the literal hate and pure vitriol I’ve seen towards people on social media, even when they say “oh yeah; this is AI”, is unbelievable. So many online groups have just become toxi

Shrug? Our experiences have been totally different then. I bought an older version of Zorin, probably 15 or 16, to review for a blog, and I was totally impressed with the consistency of the theming. To each their own, but Zorin is a cheap

by k_roy 11mo ago
$50 seems cheap for what they have probably put tons of money into to have consistent theming, in terms of both actual aesthetic and functionally. I say this as someone getting annoyed daily by KDE inconsistencies over decades.

Protecting it before generic is fine, but the pricing doesn't make sense. If it's $1000 per month cost per person when it's the name brand, how many people are on it? At this point just the diabetics and people with really g

So if we are talking about "traditional consulting", that usually means MBB/Big Three The value they add is their corpus of previous work to lean on and sell. And anybody at the firm can reference that. But it's always a

I use a lot of `buildx` stuff. It ostensibly works in podman, but in practice, I haven't had much luck

by k_roy 1y ago
I think part of that is a bit of a collapose of traditional consulting. There's been a huge transition into the boutique firms now.

Yep. And meta/hack is probably the other huge mainstay of PHP outside of what the person you responded to said. And hack with HHVM was supposed to be the panacea for PHP Just saying. What people used to use PHP for tasks, has largely b

by k_roy 1y ago
And still nobody outside of Meta cares about hack. The niche I think PHP had back in the day has largely been supplanted by Python. Maybe it’s better now, but after moving on from it to basically anything else after a 25 year career, I don’

That's really my problem with these kind of critiques. EVERY language has certain pitfalls like this. Back when I wrote PHP for 20+ years I had a Google doc full of every stupid PHP pitfall I came across. And they were always almost a

Seems like calling something low effort is even lower effort. But hey, let’s chat. Is this not the opposite of trickle down, with clearly the transfer of wealth upward?

I know many people that still use it because it does all formats, it’s what they’ve been using forever, and the UI is so much better than using zip on Windows. Of course, RAR usage nowadays is probably a bit more limited to things like usen
