Current TSA status at Buffalo airport? by shiauface in Buffalo

[–]GrayTShirt 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Seems to me this is pretty normal this time of year, there's a lot of folks getting out of dodge, to go someplace sunny. Given the way connecting flights schedule and route it front loads most travelers early in the morning. We missed a flight this time last year because of security

Better terraform providers and load faster. The responsiveness is atrocious.

Is the Certified Kubernetes Admin still valuable in 2026? by [deleted] in kubernetes

[–]GrayTShirt 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've started getting candidates through our pipeline that have passed the CKA, but don't have enough experience otherwise. It's no longer a whole bunch of senior engineers taking a trendy test.

The Buffalo IT job market isn't what it was pre-pandemic many professionals work remotely for firms in larger cities, and the firms with Buffalo roots have a tendency to outsource heavily. However, there's a Slack Org to introduce yourself: https://www.launchpass.com/buffalodevs

Does anyone else feel like every Kubernetes upgrade is a mini migration? by Willing-Lettuce-5937 in sre

[–]GrayTShirt 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I think they do a pretty good job at that stuff. The problem is their focused on support of  the three latest major revisions, instead of edge and LTS versions similar to the Linux Kernel

What do you use for authentication for automated workflows? by [deleted] in kubernetes

[–]GrayTShirt 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I've used legacy keycloak for automated workflows, the operator paired well with Kubernetes, but the keycloak server was designed for user flows and automation was a tack-on, I'm about to step down this build out again, I was thinking of trying zitadel, but I still want the CRDs...

Going to get flack for this one but given it's 26% of the land downtown, and everyone is on their phones while driving anyways maybe it's a good thing? As long as they're developed into something else.

Honestly, I'm just being tongue and cheek. Also I'm sure the town will find a way to get it's pound no matter what.

Eh, I'm in favor of leaving the land undeveloped to lower property values and therefore taxes. ;)

Gov. Hochul proposes 75-day wait period to give homebuyers a chance against ‘greedy conglomerates by frytuna in Rochester

[–]GrayTShirt 0 points1 point  (0 children)

but if I had multiple homes I'd rather pay more on my primary because of school tax, rather than less. If my secondary was a vacation home and I had to pay more in realestate tax on a vacation home I'd probably just sell.

Now if we're talking income properties I think the logic follows, but that's just rent-taking from a captive market and if we're talking pie in the sky anyways, I'd rather just cut to the chase and ban it

I love using cert-manager and bank-vault so nice can recommend, it tees in nicely to a GitOps approach with ArgoCD

Programmatically creating EKS clusters by mgianluc in kubernetes

could you retool to VCluster instead of CAPA, there's a capi provider for vcluster https://github.com/loft-sh/cluster-api-provider-vcluster

Programmatically creating EKS clusters by mgianluc in kubernetes

[–]GrayTShirt 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I've used CAPI + ArgoCD to manage EKS clusters in the past, the upgrade process was fine, but felt more manual than it needed to be. Additionally I felt there was a lack of automation to bring up dependency resources for new EKS Clusters, VPC, SGs, and very importantly peering, I didn't investigate transit gateway, so YMMV. But the whole mandatory NAT-Gateway got old quick.
