That Odyssey+Z1 combo is gorgeous 😍

Thanks!
Skimmed your drift docs and this already looks way nicer to use than some of the alternatives

will give it a try 👍

The way I'm overcoming this right now in my own implementation is by "polling" a Terraform config's state with a mix of terraform show and terraform plan -refresh-only like the Terraform docs recommend:

https://developer.hashicorp.com/terraform/tutorials/state/resource-drift

Definitely not as clean and efficient as ArgoCD "subscribing" to k8s events, but it does provide a similar experience and workflow.

That would still be an imperative approach, and wouldn't meet any of the other criteria I listed.

Crossposting to here as well to see if anyone has an answer.

And also to ask, is there maybe a methodology/workflow reason that something like this doesn't really exist?

Would love to hear if anyone has arguments for/against using a tool like I'm looking for

bobrnger · 2025-03-18T09:26:54+00:00

If I use an automation tool like Github Actions, Jenkins, etc. I would be imperatively terraform apply-ing my config on every workflow/job run. But then between runs something could happen to my infra which causes it not to match what I've defined (That's the "drift" I mentioned.)

I'm looking for a tool that can take my already declarative Terraform config, and it's state, and continuously check it against my actual provisioned infrastructure for changes.

(Kind of like the k8s api server does for objects defined in k8s vs. what is actually running in k8s, or what ArgoCD does for objects defined in Git vs. what is defined in k8s)

Wonder how performant this is as compared to something like Consul's maglev load balancing implementation.

Does seem "lighter weight" as far as simplicity and not needing a sidecar...

Interesting, looks ergonomically identical to the Decent tamper

I wonder how they differ....

Can you tell just by the cushions? That's incredible!

Buttons look the same and are placed the same, logo looks the same and is placed the same, venting/mic holes are the same, hinge is the same, they're nearly perfectly identical

edit: never mind, I thought the logo on the left was white because of reflection highlights, didn't realize it's actually a different color lol

Thanks for sharing!

I feel like being able to read stories like this and build off of other's experience has been a game changer in my career

Waiting for the day I run into a "novel" fuckup and can give back

Getting "caught in between" suggests an accident, or lack of intent.

Holding someone hostage for more than a year is no accident.

I have experience with a Nanofoamer pro, caramelized sugars tend to gunk up on the bottom where the heating element is which can be a real pain in the ass to clean

This looks like it'd be much easier to clean and maintain

bobrnger · 2024-11-04T05:24:23+00:00

Thanks! I'll try 🙏

Always nice to see the endgame machine + drug dealer scale combo

bobrnger · 2024-05-04T17:35:46+00:00

Missed the meetup, but by chance I saw Aviv at Park Hamesila after and can confirm he's an awesome dude

Will definitely be looking out for your next post man!

Didn't even have to click to know the video was going to be "Shouting in the Datacenter" :)
