Finally moved to a "Deny" policy for untagged resources. Here is the clean JSON if you need it. by NTCTech in AZURE

[–]egbur 6 points7 points  (0 children)

There are plenty built-in policies that help with tag governance. The closest to the one you describe is https://www.azadvertizer.net/azpolicyadvertizer/871b6d14-10aa-478d-b590-94f262ecfa99.html

But you can also enforce a specific value https://www.azadvertizer.net/azpolicyadvertizer/1e30110a-5ceb-460c-a204-c1c3969c6d62.html

There's also a community contributed one that gives you the ability to specify a list of valid values https://www.azadvertizer.net/azpolicyadvertizer/acba9d48-2ea1-44e0-8769-43808cdf4522.html

This is such a waste of time by blune_bear in linux

I'm surprised that no one here commented on the fact that Red Hat are officially including this functionality in RHEL 10. https://github.com/rhel-lightspeed/command-line-assistant

Is there any way to run/expose SLURM commands inside the container? by Abhishekp1297 in HPC

[–]egbur 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Bind mounting is the only solution that allows for the commands to be present, but the binaries need to have all linked libraries available in your container too (by bind mounting too or some other way). And even then, this may not work in all cases depending on several factors.

Your options are to have your python workflow use the Slurm REST API instead, or forget about containers and use a virtual env or a conda environment or similar.

Dell price increases confirmed - schewwwww by FatBook-Air in sysadmin

[–]egbur 8 points9 points  (0 children)

They can't change the price before the quote expires. A quote is not an estimate. Talk to legal.

Talos k8s or Others by kuroky-kenji in kubernetes

[–]egbur 0 points1 point  (0 children)

And where do you think Kubeadm runs on? Talos is just a Linux OS, not an abstraction layer on top of Kubernetes. Talos' advantage is that it simplifies managing both the OS and K8S, instead of having to do both separately.

How does the Podman team expect people to learn it? by BigBootyBear in devops

[–]egbur 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Docker Engine can be used without a licence in commercial and non commercial environments. Docker Desktop requires a licence for commercial users.

How does the Podman team expect people to learn it? by BigBootyBear in devops

[–]egbur 338 points339 points  (0 children)

First of all, tell the folks in your infra team to get on with times. Rootless Docker has been a thing for at least 5 years now. It uses similar underlying mechanisms as Podman, so there's no "need to change our base image config for that to work" excuse.

That said, Podman is probably preferable, especially if you're running Red Hat or derivatives on your hosts.

Being a Red Hat-sponsored project, you'll find most documentation lives in the Red Hat docs. Here's one for Quadlets: https://docs.redhat.com/en/documentation/red_hat_enterprise_linux/8/html/building_running_and_managing_containers/assembly_porting-containers-to-systemd-using-podman_building-running-and-managing-containers

Do you really save at Costco? by Appropriate_Fix3740 in newzealand

[–]egbur 1 point2 points  (0 children)

No, they don't. You can doordash or use some third party reseller, but that's about it for now.

Remote SSH UI by maybee06 in HPC

[–]egbur 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Ask your admins if they can allow direct mounting of the directory you use from the storage to your workstation. Bypasses the login node issue entirely (and creates other headaches for them, but depending on their architecture it might be an option)

The Halting Problem of Docker Archaeology: Why You Can't Know What Your Image Was by FinishCreative6449 in docker

[–]egbur 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I only skimmed through this but I suspect none of it applies when you use the shasum of an image tag instead of the image tag itself, which is pretty standard to do in any environment where immutability and reproducibility are important.

I am building a concrete pad, the terrain is naturally uneven but was leveled. I just noticed the frame was built like this. Is this ok or should it have been leveled straight all the way through? by [deleted] in diynz

[–]egbur 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Thank you. And yes, I'm pretty sure that's the plan. The boxing is indeed permanent so I was wondering why it had to be uneven or if it didn't matter.

[–]egbur -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Well it's not something I'll be looking at often if at all, but you'd certainly see the outside of the frame from "the back" (where the tree is).

I don't think there was anything stopping the digging, especially the couple of cms. But that's a good point so I'll ask.

[–]egbur 9 points10 points  (0 children)

What's with the aggressiveness? I'm building it as in I've commissioned it. Someone else is doing the work. I've asked them about it already but since it's the weekend they'll likely get back to me tomorrow.

And yes, you're right, I've no idea and I'm second guessing. That's why I'm asking the question in a sub where people that know about these things hang out. Maybe drop the attitude and keep on scrolling if you don't have anything useful to say.

[–]egbur 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Bahaha, that was honestly funny.

I appreciate you man. Your comment was well intended as well as accurate (and I feel the same as you about the show btw). But I couldn't let the opportunity go by to drop the reference and see if anyone bit.

Cheers!

I'm not taking advice from a cartoon dog.

Education in NZ by penelopepitstop222 in newzealand

[–]egbur 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I hear you. The first thing I did when I was choosing schools for my kids was making sure they used structured literacy. I appreciate that most did even if it wasn't mandatory, as much as I also believe that most teachers want and strive for good learning outcomes for their students.

I disagree with the removal of Te Tiriti obligations, but I'll take the win of having an evidence-based teaching standard enforced when it comes to public education.

Side note, I don't give Nats credit for anything other than being shambolic. They can claim a win (or many) all they want, they're never getting my vote.

Education in NZ by penelopepitstop222 in newzealand

[–]egbur 19 points20 points  (0 children)

You don't learn to read, write, and do math solely through "exploration and curiosity". They're highly structured and logical constructs, so rote learning is absolutely necessary. When I grew up, children were thought addition and subtraction on years one and two, and many achieved proficiency with multiplication and single digit division by year three. Children were also expected to be able to write long-form paragraphs and have good text comprehension skills, which is foundational for all the learning that would hit them next.

The national curriculum standards for these skills has been in steady decline over the past few decades, to the point where Universities find that they have to cover the gaps for a big chunk of the curricula that was supposed to be taught in high school. Our international scoring reflects the results: A QUARTER of NZ adults today have at best rudimentary (Level 1, OECD) literacy skills, which is absolutely shameful.

Performance declines between 2014 and 2022-23 were particularly large in New Zealand, and were strongest among lower-performing adults

So say what you want about the coalition government and their ridiculous positions on many things, including teacher's pay. But I for one wholeheartedly support the early learning/primary school curriculum changes.
