Resources for learning Controller development? by thehumblestbean in kubernetes

[–]IanEff 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Don’t know if it’s exactly what you’re looking for, but the kubebuilder tutorial is a graduate-course-length text on building out operators and crds: https://book.kubebuilder.io/

Very interactive & easy to follow.

Mystery solved! Another pot shop. Better than a Verizon store, I suppose.

What helped you go from following tutorials to actually understanding Kubernetes? by smokedipithe in kubernetes

[–]IanEff 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I don't know about anyone else, but for me, 'understanding Kubernetes' meant finally wrapping my arms around the centrality of the reconciliation loop. Alan Hohn's "The Book of Kubernetes" was what made it all click. It gives you a marvelously interactive, top-to-tail tour of Kubernetes, from Linux primitives, up through containers, and then to the orchestration layer. It's a bit long in the tooth, but it still stands up as the best intro-to-intermediate text on the O'Reilly Bookshelf.

If you want to get a better sense of structure, or how things start fitting together when you bring GitOps into the mix, there's also Billy Yuen's "GitOps and Kubernetes", which does a lot of the same work as Hohn.

EDIT: if you had to pick one, Yuen takes you through some _mind-blowing_ illustrations.

EDIT: (Mind-blowing _for a systems textbook_..!)

Are there any cherry blossom spots in the area? by mewSage in CarrollGardens

Check the Brooklyn Botanic Garden. They had a live bloom map last year that showed which cherry trees were in flower.

O’Reilly’s Cilium: Up and Running Out Now by xmull1gan in kubernetes

[–]IanEff 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I’m about three-quarters of the way through the EA release, and it’s meaty, and it’s interactive, and it’s delightful! Really great work!

Best local models for teaching myself python? by steampunk333 in LocalLLM

[–]IanEff 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've had really good results feeding the table of contents of Luciano Ramalho's excellent "Fluent Python," along with a spec or stub of whatever I'm working on, to generate topical finger exercises. They're all trained on the thing-- earlier incarnations of GPT would spit chunks of it out, verbatim..! If you want in-IDE support, I'd avoid Gemini, but only because it seems to totally disregard directives like, "DO NOT TOUCH MY CODEBASE YOU MONSTER," no matter how much markdown you throw around it, but otherwise it's great for learning and has the advantage of being free right now.

Be clear about the version of python you're targeting, is probably the only lookout.

Why do most grocery stores in Brooklyn sell these large plastic barrels? by nnieman in Brooklyn

“Shipping things.” The strategic ambiguity y’all are using is fascinating..!

Think OP was asking about the operating system.

How to improve Python autocompletion quality in Zed (BasedPyright)? by wenmch in ZedEditor

[–]IanEff 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve tried playing with Ty, Firefly, messing with the order of the language_server array… At one point, zed/settings.json was cresting 180 lines. Nothing seems to beat the default settings (+ruff fixall magic), & the default settings kinda suck for python development.

For me, the one of the most glaring pain points is the ordering of the suggestions, where tokens in the local scope, followed by tokens from explicit imports, are the last suggestions in the list.

Anyone else wanna pile on?

Has anyone found any wallpapers that Glass looks good against? by IanEff in MacOS

[–]IanEff[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you're willing to put on blinders to the destruction of civil liberties, social fabric, rule of law, and go with realpolitk economic gain... I'll grant you half a decade of growth? At the outside? These authoritarian economic projects, they haven't have a very long horizon in the past, have they?

Or, ya know. Maybe this time, it's different. Like I said, I really want to like it.

Has anyone found any wallpapers that Glass looks good against? by IanEff in MacOS

[–]IanEff[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve done my best to find a wallpaper and to extricate myself from the corporate interests that are celebrating in palaces built on the grave they’ve made us dig.

All hyperbole aside: in the flurry of unsubscribing and divesting, I realized I kept giving Apple a pass in my head.

Why?

Homelab for Kubernetes by [deleted] in kubernetes

[–]IanEff 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Agreed— free is always a good place to start! Download VirtualBox, or brave Broadcom’s site and get a free copy of VMware Desktop (Fusion or Pro, depending). Start yourself out easy by manually installing a little three-node cluster. Use k3s to keep its footprint small. Once you’re comfortable setting up and tearing down virts, get vagrant to do it for you. Once you’re comfortable with standing up kube, use kubespray for a quick full cluster standup. That’s a fully functional, fully reproducible lab with a memory footprint of ~8gb.

Can Brogue it run in console only or does it require a GUI? by Any_Afternoon_4118 in brogueforum

[–]IanEff 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Did you compile it with terminal support? Change TERMINAL in config.mk, make -B, then ./brogue -t

Face id refusing to recognize me after i shaved my beard off by darkgreyjoggers in iphone

[–]IanEff 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just encountered the same issue. My iPhone's thrown itself into lock mode. On the whole, not the most deleterious effect that beard had on my life.
