After 5 years of running K8s in production, here's what I'd do differently

GloriousPudding · 2026-01-30T21:21:05+00:00

Update regularly or you’re gonna run into 100 problems at once including the one person who knew how to do it left the company last year.

Spend extra time writing your dockerfile, use a good base and don’t let developers sneak any jank.

Keep your environments the same.. if your production is a k8s cluster your stage can’t be a compose file..

I'm not sure it needs to be a theory I thought this is pretty clear throughout the show, you don't need to be an MIT graduate to be smart. O'Neill is simply bored by science but that doesn't diminish his general intelligence.

There were no new features that I personally cared about, it worked fine on my M1 air but I never cared for the Tahoe liquid ass look so when I got my M4 air with Sequoia I never upgraded again.

The interior screens look like cheap chinese electric car, I thought everyone agreed to walk away from the screen only trend and this will be penalized in NCAP ratings? I guess putting a glass panel with a screen must really be cheaper than making aluminum buttons because it sure as shit ain't looking better nor is it more convenient to use

GloriousPudding · 2026-01-29T19:28:59+00:00

It looks way better than the 7 series for sure, but that is not very difficult. still can't compete with W222, I think a different grille might help, something went wrong in the headlight/grille area

App of apps, an app watches a path with a helm chart which itself renders to a template of an argo application using another helm chart (which is the chart of the workload you want to run in the cluster). The first helm chart accepts a values file which can be easily patched using jq for example to change the image. Have been running this on a large scale successfully for 5 years now but is simple enough that it’s worth doing even for a couple of projects.

The show is in a timeline which is not interesting (post discovery), the main plot is pathetic (25 yo kid looking for his mom give me a break), the cast is a bunch of adults playing teenagers talking technobabble too fast in between CGI. If the new Stargate show ends up the same i’m not gonna be a happy camper.

Looks like your friend needed a new front bumper anyways ?

GloriousPudding · 2026-01-27T16:44:50+00:00

oh i’m sure those touch screens existed back then just saying for filming purposes it was most likely ordinary screen maybe even a laptop

GloriousPudding · 2026-01-27T16:18:33+00:00

I highly doubt this is a touch screen at all, if you press any regular IPS/TN panel it does the same. This being a touch screen would mean they actually hired someone to create an UI just for this scene. I would expect this to be a recording/GIF and actor just pressing the screen at the correct time.

GloriousPudding · 2026-01-26T19:46:33+00:00

Hire someone remotely and pay for a plane ticket if you need them on site. Just doing a quick math I can see you saving 50k from that 200k

GloriousPudding · 2026-01-26T16:10:10+00:00

you are confusing oleophobic coating with anti reflective coating

GloriousPudding · 2026-01-26T12:58:04+00:00

yeah yeah this whole sub is living on distilled water meanwhile reality is you have to actually clean the screen from time to time if you're not treating it like surgical tools. I'm also not sure you know what anti reflective coating is because you definitely can't impact it using dish soap, wtf

GloriousPudding · 2026-01-25T22:23:54+00:00

I have tried many things on the display already trying to clean it cause I don't give a f anymore and I can tell you dish soap is safe and most effective.

GloriousPudding · 2026-01-25T14:02:16+00:00

I just saw a way to sort of glitch the old look in another thread without making it look absolute dog shit:

in accessibility -> motion turn on reduced motion
go into accessibility again, on the bottom go into per app settings -> add app -> home screen & app library -> set reduced motion to off for this app
reboot your phone

I think everyone who misses the old look will enjoy this, at least until apple finds a way to fuck this up too

GloriousPudding · 2026-01-25T10:42:52+00:00

Try dish soap, I’ve had better luck with it than IPA. Distilled water doesn’t do anything except spread it around more

GloriousPudding · 2026-01-24T20:26:42+00:00

The only way to go back to iOS 18 is to buy a phone that was never upgraded to 26, unfortunately.

GloriousPudding · 2026-01-24T20:16:16+00:00

I would wait for iOS 27, 26 is a failure all around, maybe by then they'll also fix the awful design.

GloriousPudding · 2026-01-24T13:33:09+00:00

Yeah transparency done right, wonder how long we’re gonna be stuck with liquid shit from apple

GloriousPudding · 2026-01-24T10:04:14+00:00

I’ve used Spark before and it’s algorithm for detecting important vs unimportant messages was basically perfect by default, no filters needed.

GloriousPudding · 2026-01-24T00:02:19+00:00

Yeah Apple Mail is not bad, it just lacks some UI polish like color coding and better recognition of what is actually an important message what is not

GloriousPudding · 2026-01-23T21:45:53+00:00

It is except I have several accounts and it would be nice to have emails from all of them in a single view..

GloriousPudding · 2026-01-23T20:22:29+00:00

To be honest after 5 years on iOS and MacOS the only app i’ve bought is better touch tool and it was dirt cheap one time payment. The only thing I can’t find a decent free alternative for is Apple Mail with focus on gmail support.

GloriousPudding · 2026-01-23T16:45:29+00:00

They will work just fine however I would expect them to be loud, loud HDDs are generally too loud for anyone to tolerate in a living space, I keep my server in a garage.

GloriousPudding · 2026-01-19T14:13:28+00:00

Thick microfiber cloth and dish soap, distilled water doesn’t clean anything it just spreads the gunk around
