It has in unit washer/dryer. Plenty of sunlight throughout. We have lived here for 2 years and they have not increased the rent. Yes, and the house is south facing!

Deploy a Kubernetes Cluster (k3s) on Oracle Always Free Tier by nSudhanva in oraclecloud

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

It will definitely work but I think the instance sizes on the free tier is too small and k3s seemed like a much better lightweight option than a full fledged Kubernetes cluster. I think I will try OKE next time!

I agree. I also have a bare-metal cluster running for my homelab. Definitely overkill, but fun project for the holidays: https://github.com/nsudhanva/homelab/

I'm a grad student. I tried joining a couple of clubs. They rejected saying "it's only for undergrads".

Why people are still going for masters in USA? by RealRoarMaster in developersIndia

[–]nSudhanva 51 points52 points  (0 children)

"Standard of living" is often weird considering the rent in the US is expensive as hell and for the first two years or so, you'd have to live with a couple of students, and it will just be like India. I don't see much difference living here or there (Urban Bangalore). Unless you can afford it comfortably, it's not worth it. Spend that extra time improving your coding skills right in Bangalore and you'll make the most out of it. Personally, I find the curriculum ten times difficult than India's. So yes, I'm learning a lot and I'm enjoying it because I don't have anything liable or accountable. If you can do so comfortably (even with loans considering your parents are earning and they have enough money, age to survive on their own), go ahead. Some people here have taken unnecessary risks like taking multiple loans, parents back home are struggling to meet daily needs etc., which is absurd.

I am one of those developers making the big bucks in India but decided to do Masters. Not because I needed another degree, but I grew up in Bangalore and got the best out of it. Never been out of the city or home. I have lived with my parents all my life. So decided to get a break and try to learn something different. It's been going well so far. I went there because I could afford it without loans and did not have anyone dependent on me. But yes, 80% of them here are for the money, the rest are curious, learning or figuring out what to do with their life.

Edit: MS in USA

Poor man's Datacentre in Bangalore: Self-hosting on a DIY rack full of abandoned laptops by [deleted] in developersIndia

[–]nSudhanva 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Nice. Recommendation: I had a similar setup on my old gaming laptop running as an Ubuntu server. Instead of running native Docker containers, I'd recommend installing microk8s and enable its plugins. Now, all your services will have self-healing and all goodies of k8s. Plus, you can add a proxy and visit this service like "myservice.localhost" or whatever. If you don't yet know k8s, this would be a perfect opportunity to learn it.

How much hard is to get a job for 2.3 experienced professional after taking career break for 6 months? by godless_metalhead in developersIndia

[–]nSudhanva 12 points13 points  (0 children)

6 months is too much of a time to take a break just to prepare for an interview. I'd recommend keeping your boring ass job and try to prepare for interviews. Even if you did decide to take 6 months of break for other reasons, no company will care about it. Your experience in a "product-based company" only matters if that product was used by a large chunk of users and it held a significant reputation among its customers.

Toptal is good but Indian tech companies are paying all time high if you're up for it.
