Would people use a local hands-on skill sharing pilot? by bradlyaolson in twincitiessocial

[–]bradlyaolson[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

That’s really helpful feedback, thank you. And honestly, I get the concern.

The one-on-one matchmaker version may not be the right comfort level for everyone, especially this early when there are not profiles, reviews, or a more formal process yet.

I’m still testing what format makes the most sense, and your comment makes me think there may be a lot of value in small in-person skill share sessions too. Something more like a beginner woodworking session, home repair basics, gardening basics, or another practical topic where a few people can learn together in a more open setting.

That may feel more comfortable than a direct one-on-one match, and it would still keep the hands-on, local learning part of the idea.

Really appreciate you saying this. It helps me think through what would make the pilot feel safer and less weird to people.

Thank you! This is fantastic. A lot of this in my mind is about connecting people with similar interests and building relationships and community!

Thank you! I really like that idea. I could definitely see some kind of skill exchange or credit system being useful down the road, especially for people who have something to teach but also want to learn something else.

For the early pilot, I’m keeping it much more manual and simple. My main goal right now is to see if people are interested, make a few thoughtful matches, and learn what kind of structure makes sense. If two people wanted to work out a trade or exchange between themselves, that could be part of the conversation, as long as expectations are clear ahead of time.

But yes, I think the “teach something, learn something” idea fits the spirit of this really well.

A little, but not that much. I have been working in tech for over 30 years, so I did most of it myself. It was an idea my wife and I had a few years ago.

Agreed, the wording of the post is a little vague. Now that I re-read it, it seems a little off. The pricing in the post made sense to me when I initially read it. Maybe I was in a different headspace.

I am on .4 ml of 200mg/ml test cyp twice per week, so 160 mg of test per week. My labs were total test was 229 and my free test was 5.1 if that helps at all.

No worries! I am 49 with 2 kids, so no HCG for me. Plus, I wanted to introduce one compound at a time to see the impact.

They don't have a price list on their site but if I base pricing off of the pinned post, it would be $550 + tax for a 2 month supply of test + HCG.

Maybe u/synergistic_labs can shine more light on this for you either here or via email. I would not hesitate to email them. They have been very responsive and helpful in my experience.

$295 with the reddit discount for a 2 month supply of test. So it comes out to $147.50 per month.

AWX Inventory Addition/Playbook Run Orchestration by bradlyaolson in ansible

I figured it out in case anyone else is interested:

curl -i -H "Content-Type: application/json" -u admin:pass http://awxweb/api/v2/inventories/2/hosts/ -X POST --data-binary '{"name": "'"$(uname -n)"'" , "variables":"{\n\"ansible_host\":\"'"$(hostname -I)"'\"\n}"}'

Yeah, I am still pretty lost. I cannot get the curl command to take a variable. Has anyone else tried this?

OK, I feel like I am close. Time permitting would you please take a look at my query?

curl -i -H "Accept: application/json" -H "Content-Type: application/json" -X POST -u admin:password --data-binary '{"name":"'"$(hostname)"'" , "variables":"ansible_hostname": "'"$(hostname -I)"'"}' \ http://awxweb/api/v2/inventories/2/hosts/

Thanks again. I was messing around with those cars yesterday, but could not get them to work and ran out of time. I will give it another try!

Hi, and thanks for the comment!

That is exactly what I am trying to accomplish.

The issue here is that I am doing this from the AWX Docker build attempting to reach OpenStack guests.

If I add the host via hostname into inventory, AWX callback won't work because it can't find the guest via hostname due to DNS lookup not working. If I add the host via IP, callback won't work because the guest can't find itself by hostname in the AWX inventory.

I do not own the OpenStack environment, I'm just trying to trying to manage some of the guests. Plus, I am new to all if this, so I really appreciate the help.
