lol. you don’t know the lore young padawan. great leaders frequently change their mind based on new information. so, by definition you are either right because you changed your mind or dumb for sticking with the wrong thing. that’s some re

the principles themselves are useful but here’s the thing: people take them literally and without any context a lot of the times effectively turning them into a weapon to show how X and Y don’t show “leadership”. Here is an example: “Insist

that was one of the stupidest things I have ever experienced. to think that a freaking suit could cause that level of outrage.

here is the problem: estimating is also work. breaking down the work is hard work. sometimes it takes more to break down and think things through than to do the work. the fundamental problem is that management does not want estimates. they

I don’t necessarily agree with you that if supply > demand and 1 programmer does the job of 2 this will lead to a higher salary. You can see this today in most places where you can walk on water, but you still need to be in your pay band

i like the French approach. whenever shit does not work they start building a guillotine: https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-6477953/Yellow-Vest... It's a very powerful symbol that if things don't

i’m sort of a Luddite so take this with a grain of salt. I don’t see this going anywhere. If it’s really good and we can actually have 1 developer instead of 2 now why would any developer want to do this? this would basically be a piece of

oh yeah? and how do you update the machines/CAs?

from my neck of the woods, making me take a picture of a device and using machine learning to figure out things that are not the device itself are an invasion of privacy

yeah, nothing beats K8s except you know... maybe serverless. or maybe cloud primitives that are already there and are handled by someone else. IMHO, unless you have a huge fleet of bare metal machines K8s is an overhead you don't need

Is your modem next to a microwave oven? you ask them directly and you don't invade their privacy by making them take pictures.

yeah. edX was stellar compared to other platforms. like really really good. sad that it's uncertain what is going to happen to it now

you could, the problem with this approach is how do you manage these volumes and the infrastructure around it. How do you get the keys on that volume? Usually, this trust is established when the machine is built the first time and it gets

my question is, if the CA cert needs to be rotated, how do you do this for all machines? it can be done, but it's not trivial

if you have a network level firewall blocking DHCP traffic, you will not be able to do DHCP. The way it works for physical hosts is that all machines in the same rack see the dhcp traffic and the TOR has a special ip helper configured where

by rantwasp 5y ago
yes and no. when doing stuff like this you will always have a chicken and egg problem.
204.
by rantwasp 5y ago
that’s not how DHCP works. in the context of a machine coming up/renewing a lease it’s basically a broadcast and anyone on the network can reply. the traffic needs to happen on the interface where you get the ip (guessing the main inte

how do you get the certs to the machines? ever had to rotate certs for all the machine in a datacenter?

the real learning for me is to not use gcp. sounds harsh, but you don’t get second chances when it comes to trust in this context.

huh. so at least in WA the law says >5 nano-grams if THC per milliliter in blood can get you a DUI. Seems that you are right that there is no reliable way of testing for this (and the 5 nanograms might have been pulled out of someone’s a
