I seriously wonder what HN thinks is a valid business model for writing open source software. Everyone here seems to insinuate that people want to create a business and use open source as a growth hack. But how do you differentiate those fr

Why do tech companies keep using dystopian stories as manuals? The flirty tone, the voice being awfully similar to the lead actress of Her . Next we are getting Ex Machina ?

I am really sad that jsonnet / ksonnet never really took off. It’s a great way to template, but has a bit of a learning curve in my experience. I suspect that is why it’s niche. If you like what is presented in this article, take a loo

I (recently) created kubeconfig-bikeshed, a small CLI application to manage the high number of kubeconfigs (configuration/credential files to access Kubernetes clusters) that I have to deal with on a daily basis. It was also a nice lea

Not everyone can look back at a 10 year long career in the industry to draw inspiration from. Especially for junior engineers, pointing out alternatives (that feel obvious to you) would be important.

It would be helpful if the post not only told you what to _not_ do (especially when it is a frequently done thing) but offered any sort of alternative.

Can you elaborate on that? What kind of introspection do you think the author is missing?

The post you are responding to is making the point that even though we have QA, dedicated jobs or even departments for these things … We, as a profession, still fail in releasing bug-free software. And that’s 100% correct. Is that really so

This seems to be a very common sentiment that is not stated that clearly often, but it makes me very sad to read it. The magic of the internet, once upon a time, was discovering content in your own time. You stumbled into that cool niche fo

I assume that’s for professional workstations? There were complaints about the „low“ maximum RAM with previous Apple Silicon generations if I remember correctly.

Most autoscaling functionality is implemented on top of the upstream cluster-autoscaler component, and GKE documentation claims to remove nodes when pods fit onto other nodes as well[1], so it does have the same "defragging" funct

This might be true for "stock" Kubernetes, but it seems likely that the grandparent post is using cluster autoscaling (since they mention "auto-scaled up"), for which this post is not accurate. The cluster-autoscaler com

Maybe that is just corporate language, but the way this is worded („distortion of truth“, „selective presentation“) seems to suggest that the quite detailed post from Gordon is truthful in its key details and Bethesda seems to be claiming t

For what it’s worth, the subthread you are commenting on specifically talks about GKE. GKE is removing docker support, period. That’s not plainly wrong, it’s in their support document. For most users, using docker through a CRI compatibilit

They have, with 1.24[1], following Kubernetes upstream. If you are an end user nothing is really going to change from this though, because docker produces container images that can be used in other container runtimes (and in fact, container

I am very much aware of this, but that's exactly what I am arguing. Articles setting out to explain Kubernetes should not perpetuate the false equality of docker and containers.

I disagree with this, at least on moral grounds, for at least one specific reason: social media is super aggressive when it comes to pushing advertisements into your feeds. LinkedIn, Twitter, probably Facebook and others (I don’t have FB so

I‘ll add a comment to reflect my own experience: I’m quite happy with Apple Music, both on iOS and macOS. Sometimes I get „not authorised“ errors when playing something new and that is annoying, but other than that it just works for me as a

I am pretty sure that OP is looking for this: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cooperative - so a tech startup that is owned by its employees, a worker cooperative.
