I always smile at posts like this. They're right and wrong at the same time. Systems should be "as simple as possible, but no simpler". And thinking that you can gloss over the detail is just going to create more hassle later

Well, for hobby purposes I terraformed a completely free cluster on OCI today. It's a "toy" of course, but k3s + OCI "Always free" tier includes Oracle Heatwave mysql which k3s can use in place of etcd. I'm dep

Yep, these models are all trash. They happily invent wrong detail. If you never knew anyone in the photograph, then knock yourself out, let it invent faces that didn't exist. But if you're doing anything with family photographs ju
