Think my organization is going to be stuck on 1.21 for a while. That swath of deprecated API versions* that were removed in 1.22 (specifically Ingresses and RBAC stuff) means that lots of helm charts are just unusable. Part of that is Helm&

One excellent crossover between Nix and Docker is https://nixery.dev/ If you ever need a container with a handful of well-known utils installed, just specify them in the image URL. Positively magical!

I use them a lot to control the tone of what I write. Since periods can indicate a serious or angry tone[1], I often need some other way to indicate a separation between two complete sentences. For example: "It looks like you forgot to

I feel the lack of a "motivation" blurb for every recommendation may lead to blindly checking boxes. Going through a grueling security compliance process at a previous job taught me that no single list of recommendations covers al

I'm hoping these kinds of policies continue to be phased out. The Kubernetes world has changed a lot in the past few years in ways that make databases-in-k8s more appealing. Such as: - Kubernetes "eating the world", meaning s

I'm currently trying to convince people that a managed k8s service is not that "simple", and that we can't "just spin up another cluster" without a great deal of operational overhead. Some of the things that mi

Could the discrepancy be explained by the type of responses? Sounds like an app like clubhouse might have lots of small, fast responses (like direct messaging), where very little of the response time is spent in application code. Does your

My takeaway from this article was a familiar complaint for many of us: over-hyped new features being prioritized over more beneficial work. The key quote being: > Tesla should focus instead on improving its actually-existing AI, its auto

I'm a bit disappointed that something called the "state of software security" seems to exclusively focus on scan results. That's the cool, flashy, automatable part of security. But IMO the boring, manual parts (operation

All these battles over IP where there's an enormous power imbalance strike me as problems of ego. In college, I made a website and I thought another student "stole" the idea. I considered my legal options, but I'm glad I

Good point. At the company where I work, we have an ISO compliance team that converts that guidance into mandatory requirements. So the authority is coming from company policies rather than ISO itself.

I'm struggling with this now too. It gets even crazier when you have dozens of microservices, each in their own container. Imagine being mandated by InfoSec to scan ~24 images or ~10 GB every release. The images are a mixture of python

I'm just imagining each of those individual issues sitting at the bottom of a Jira backlog. One thing that causes them to be prioritized where I work is that if they come up during a yearly review, you can't ship your app. Overrid
