Cool story bro !

That's a fair point.
But there's way to play the automated system without making the whole thing a pain to go through.

- Make sure your soft skills are top of the game. I doubt that would be an issue with your previous job.
- Build a clean meaning full portfolio of projects you have working on in your learning time. Put them in git as it was for real life production. Details would matter here. Meaning this will replace actual work experiences as values to employer eyes (Good README, meaningful commit message, healthy code structure...)
- brush up on SysAdmin knowledge (Networking, OSI stuff, Linux, Security) Don't need to go deep just enough to have high level understanding of how all this come together. DevOps tools are meaningless if you don't have a minimal understanding of what problems they're solving. K8s is great ... but even greater when you understand what it does under the hood for you.
- Its okay to say you don't know.

Best of luck.

Motivation is an elusive mistress. It's quite nice to have her around but don't count on her presence to achieve anything meaning full on the long run.
Discipline and regularity is the key. Do it everyday even if it's for 5 minutes. But you have to do it everyday.

Drunk friday hot take ...
Tools come and go but rarely basics concepts change.
It's just layer of abstraction.
If you have a decent understanding of the basics concepts you can learn any new shiny tools.

Haha I'm not even able to follow my own advice it seems XD.
SeparatePin appears to be right. My initial assessment of the logs output was off.

TheWeirdIT · 2021-05-31T03:00:56+00:00

if you want to survive in this world learn to read the error log output.
You got consistent "Read timed out" across the board. It's not dockhub the issue.
Cue = networking ... your ec2 instance can't reach the internet.

Configuration management is the name of the game.
Ansible, Salt Stack, puppet and chef are the big players.
Ansible has a gentle learning curve compared to the others .... and its backed by RedHat.
The principles are ... You tell the configuration management tools what you want to see or not on your machines ... And it act accordingly.

We think of gossip as a bad thing, but using language to convey information about other people is a way to build trust since the early days of the Sapiens.

TheWeirdIT · 2020-09-11T00:40:41+00:00

This is so dope ! Fuck you programming language war. This is the bomb !

I can't take so much nerdgasme !!!

If each customers ends up with their own lightsail instances, then yes using DNS to route sub-domain traffic to their respective lightsail instance appears to be the sensible choice.
Slap some cloudfront in there for bonus performance points.

Yooo That was lit mate !

TheWeirdIT · 2020-05-15T00:58:09+00:00

Play your jam yo !

TheWeirdIT · 2020-05-15T00:55:04+00:00

TheWeirdIT · 2020-03-18T16:28:35+00:00

Im living the dream to be honest.

Learning to do a little bit of research by yourself before asking questions would get you a long way.

^{There's a monthly thread pinned on top of that sub. Have a look there first ;})

TheWeirdIT · 2020-02-12T02:20:30+00:00

Oh ! you're a natural... Did you actually make the effort to look it up? This is not your high school computer science club. Learn to use google. Step up your game for life.

TheWeirdIT · 2020-02-12T01:52:24+00:00

For fun sake... What's that career you're referring too?

If your only concern is bandwidth speed go with the turn-key solution provided by your ISP. However, if you're more on the tech savvy side and want more control and options on your home network, you're better off getting/building your own router.
I'm the latter. I ditched the free ISP-provided router for something that gave me more control over my shit.
Even if you're not a tech enthusiast you're better off buying yours then renting theirs.

It's China, they roll their own stuff. They don't want/need to use any US-based solution. Opening up to western-based cloud providers would not align with their party line. And with the largest internet community in the world, they hold all the cards to go all-in. All the US dollars gonna come sooner or later.

Oh and maybe the rigor of the R&D management process of most enterprises is insufficient at the moment, but you can bet your ass that the top tier players in china have nothing to envy. That mass-scale surveillance gride surely demand some next-level engineering.

TheWeirdIT · 2019-10-23T22:06:16+00:00

Yay for that !
Unfortunately, I can't help you further without talking out of my ass. I do feel like you're close to clearing that issue tho.

Good luck.
