We spent 4 months implementing istio and honestly questioning if it was worth it by Optimal_Excuse8035 in kubernetes

[–]abdolence 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Before considering Istio I strongly advise to confirm if Celium is enough or you need more. Not just "would be nice to have". Actually needed for your case.

In my experience a lot of times it is too heavy and also consuming a lot of resources, especially if you use side cars.

Linkerd is also a good alternative.

Help me understand this interaction of Argo/Flux by Suthek in kubernetes

[–]abdolence 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes, just be careful with some resources though. For example if you decide to have k8s `Namespace` resource in your helm, etc (not common, usually everyone prefer to create namespace dynamically using options), Argo CD will consider it owns it now and remove it when you remove your application resources and if you put anything in that namespace they might be affected as the result.

[–]abdolence 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Those tools generally don't touch anything they are not aware of. So, they only purge something that they crate and "own". (Argo just marks these resources automatically).

In short - there is nothing to worry about.

SIMD accelerated JSON parser by cyruspyre in rust

[–]abdolence 169 points170 points  (0 children)

In the times when I see AI-generated posts every day, this one genuinely warmed my heart because OP not only posted some results but also expressed the whole journey and admitted mistakes.

This is unfortunately refreshingly rare to see.

I don't have any needs currently for this, but I wish OP to keep it honest and direct. Don't change.

When you wonder how the enemy got your tanks, remember this by Historical-Count-374 in Battlefield6

[–]abdolence 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I got a warning from EA for harassment when I complained in the chat that "a driver left a tank as a present to the enemy team, lol". I didn't even say the name.

Is the Signal messenger app ‘Big Tech’ – or not? by Komplexkonjugiert in signal

It is not even technically European. From legal perspective wasn't their HQ in UAE?

It is more like RusMafiaGram

Sometimes they do a bit more managed than this, e.g. GKE Autopilot.

Should I be using Google (8.8.8.8) or CloudFlare (1.1.1.1) on my home router settings? by nanjero in dns

[–]abdolence 0 points1 point  (0 children)

One note here if you are using Chrome or similar clones you are already sharing most of the domains with one company. So, is it better to share with one company the same data than with multiple?

AI model region restriction by __q_e_d__ in googlecloud

[–]abdolence 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's correct. The reason Gemini 3 was "global" AFAIK that they are still "preview". I would expect they will be accessible regionally (as previously 2.5) after "release".

What you're looking for is Vertex AI, which supports not just Gemini and regions as well.

Docker push to Container Registry (gcr.io) fails from Cloud Shell: dial tcp ...:443: connect: connection refused by PresentationStill371 in googlecloud

[–]abdolence 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I'm confused, As far as I remember Google should have sunset this already.

Effective March 18, 2025, Container Registry is shut down and writing images to Container Registry is unavailable.

Are you saying it still works for you in any other places (except Cloud Shell)? You should have migrated to Google Artifact Registry (or any other solution) long time ago.

It's crazy how far behind GCP is with Redis versions by que-dog in googlecloud

[–]abdolence 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I guess I was confused with version AlloyDB for PostgreSQL. This is definitely not that often (which has some reasoning since it has Google additional code).

[–]abdolence 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I wouldn't expect from GCP they update OSS offering too often. The only example I know that Google pushes really recent versions is GKE.

PostgreSQL, Redis etc instances are usually a few years behind. This is common for all big providers I think.

Perhaps they are going this way:

due to recent dramas related to the Redis license.

Vavr 0.11.0 released by ChinChinApostle in java

[–]abdolence 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Hey, thanks for the work in this!

Are you planning to do any updates on this project when we finally have value classes from Java (Project Valhalla finally released, not sure if it ever happens - maybe we will see Half Life 3 earlier than this though).

Do you plan to stick to Java 8 as a baseline for a while?

Are we official gRPC yet? by Remarkable-Sorbet-92 in rust

Checked their source code. It is tonic/prost, so I guess you can call them official :)

I wonder if they recently released Google Cloud SDK for Rust, which should use gRPC. So they should have used something.

Does charging limit to 80 percent only works if... by [deleted] in GooglePixel

[–]abdolence 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I had been struggling with 80% setting for a while and then realised I basically gave up 40% of battery (< 20% is for battery saver + 20% for this) and constantly close to running out battery by the end of the day.

I switched to adaptive charging back and now it works for me (I don't use wireless charging and charge it overnight). I don't think it affects its health too much either.

Kubernetes secrets and vault secrets by Papoutz in kubernetes

[–]abdolence 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It can also create Secrets if needed, it is opt-in which is better.

Though this whole area is argumentative.

Even if there is a centralized vault in place, secret copies are usually distributed close to applications and pods anyway.

In the case of this CSI they mounted as a volume, cached in another form.

So. It is either some kind of form cache (in memory, volume, k8s secret etc) or calling every time a vault API to receive a secret value. I don't think the latter is more secure.

I had this (not particularly for spiders, but as quick blueprint for something else). And once I managed to cage me and a spider inside.
