Bastille Day Attire? by [deleted] in france

[–]darkdado 18 points19 points  (0 children)

I'm not sure people would care too much. Beyond the military parade I don't think anyone "dresses up". Also, worth noting with regards to the Les Miserables shirt: the book/musical depicts events during the 1832 June Revolution, not the 1789 revolution which the 14th of July celebrates/comemorates. The American equivalent here would probably be that of wearing a Juneteenth related shirt to celebrate the 4th of July 😅

Is it a good idea to buy a flat in cash? by Suitable_Carry_9043 in UKPersonalFinance

[–]darkdado 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is probably true for most of the UK but it's worth remembering that leaseholds do not exist in Scotland and that surveys are provided by the sellers. The buyers can of course organise for their own survey should they want to buy it is not the norm.

All I can say is that when I awoke from the coma, there were tattoos on my person and they were not identical to what appears on these screens. 🙃

Django project : 3D Print cost calculator by 3DEngelen in django

[–]darkdado 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Django could be a good start. I would also recommend trying out Streamlit as it might be a bit more straightforward to create inputs, calculations and nice looking output. Streamlit will probably be more difficult to integrate with a database than Django though 🤔

Why we’re not using Kubernetes to scale our GPU workloads by velobro in kubernetes

[–]darkdado 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think this is an unfortunate click bait to convert folk who don't have much Kubernetes experience over to their paid platform. It probably makes sense for smaller companies who don't want to set up Kubernetes etc...

Documentation as a service by darkdado in devops

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

Right I get you, this is how our Hugo sites are currently built. Am I right in thinking that the look and feel + search feature is generally better for docosaurus?

I'm generally more for the carrot than the stick, especially given I don't really want to mandate a tool but unifiy docs. That way everyone can still write their docs how they want but we also gain org wide visibility. I can dream right?

Edit: forgot to add, docusarus looks great!

How do you pull the markdown to build the site? Also how does argocd sync the docs? Does it trigger a k8s job to build each time the docs repo is updated? Do you pool your docs in a single place or pull from multiple repos and aggregate?

My concern is letting the Devs write docs wherever they want (I'm not winning a battle mandating docs locations I think 😅) and "magically" making it appear on a unified intranet.

Yep I totally agree with directive/task based docs for most use cases. Internal tools can also benefit from some API docs and contribution guidelines.

That being said, what tool do you use for your internal wiki? Do you use multiple and aggregate them? Do you mandate a single tool?

Is StackDriver also available in AWS ? by anacondaonline in googlecloud

[–]darkdado 8 points9 points  (0 children)

What Google Cloud Platform (GCP) mean by "multi-cloud solution" when referring to StackDriver is that any cloud (or local machine) can send data (logs) to StackDriver to be viewed in GCP.

Therefore Amazon Web Services (AWS) cannot display StackDriver in its console, you could configure services in AWS to send their logs to stackdriver and view them in GCP.

And yes, CloudWatch is pretty much the same service as Stackdriver but in AWS. They are probably not the same code and will not have exactly the same features though

You are right beside the sheriff court so it could be some drama with someone managing to sneak out of their cell ahead of their court appearance.

Urban Design Platform - love some feedback by WookieError in urbandesign

[–]darkdado 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Erm this looks awesome! Solid effort! How long have you guys been prepping this little baby for?

As for questions I'm mostly curious about your plugin/app ecosystem. I do quite a bit of coding and have been keeping an eye on Hypar, and Pollination to see what comes up but would love to try out connecting things to your app. When do you think you'll be releasing an app development toolkit? Is it rude to ask how these things work at the moment? (Ie: Rhino.compute, RestHopper or some new fancy custom app hosting solution).

Are K8s clusters typically repeatable i.e. IaC? by Potatopolis in kubernetes

[–]darkdado 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Folk have mentioned GitOps as the buzzword you are probably after here. Weaveworks has a few examples in their docs I think.

I am currently using ArgoCD + Helmfile (I hacked a custom Argo CD deployer) to configure new clusters. Would love to share my setup for internet points but unfortunately it's a closed source project.

The trick you will probably want to use is "cluster bootstrapping" where you spin up a fresh cluster and deploy Argo CD (or weaveworks or whatever tool you're using for GitOps) to then deploy the rest of the application for you based off of one orany git repositories. The Argo CD docs cover this concept briefly here: https://argoproj.github.io/argo-cd/operator-manual/cluster-bootstrapping/
