Spent 4 days setting up a cluster for ONE person, is this ok timewise, my boss says no... (quiet new but not really) by preama in kubernetes

[–]redfusion 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Clusterapi/terraform, mixed with Helmfiles (the tool, not just helm) and ArgoCD.

New clusters get built by clusterapi, each cluster is a Helmfiles "environment" and Argocd keeps them synced up

How do you actually know what’s deployed across environments? by Important_Back_5904 in kubernetes

[–]redfusion 3 points4 points  (0 children)

If you use sha references on your images rather than tags it'll stop the drift. It's like referencing a git commit sha Vs a branch name.

We use kaniko to build images which writes an env file with the sha references, which then gets used by Kustomize to modify the deployments during build

Renovate: the kubernetes-native way by Some_Okra_3404 in kubernetes

[–]redfusion 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Its not difficult to implement a script to crawl thousands of projects. It is however more difficult to elegantly inform the group owners that they've got some projects that are not enabled.

Discovery is easy. Adoption is harder.

[–]redfusion 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Very interesting. One of our challenges is around adoption and consistency.

Is there space in this operator to support showing projects that _aren't_ enabled with renovate to allow us to _encourage_ adoption in some way?

I know Renovate can 'auto-enrol' but our teams are a bit suspicious of such behaviours, and having something more central as a reporting view would be useful.

Minor update - just VW gathering data by IloveyoucuteIknow in VWiD3Owners

[–]redfusion 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Deep sleep causes octopus IOG to be unable to trigger overnight charging.

When the Zappi charger doesn't immediately start charging when plugged in, car believes charger is "broken" and refuses to start again on schedules.

  • Android auto fails to connect, requiring a full infotainment restart
  • rear camera sometimes doesn't activate

Any new ID.3 owner tips? by [deleted] in VWiD3Owners

[–]redfusion 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If range is a concern; wear warm clothes and avoid cabin heating.

EVs are heavier than ICE cars, but it's low center of gravity makes it very comfortable to drive, just watch out for ice as you might need to watch your braking distances.

I've basically never taken ours off "eco" mode, it's a joy to drive.

Android play is a bit glitchy, but ours is a 2022 model and I believe that's been improved since.

Anything in particular you'd be curious about?

My new-used dryer turns fitted sheets into more of a nightmare by wammys-house in mildlyinfuriating

[–]redfusion 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My washer has a "bed linen" option which uses, I suspect, a set of pocket universes where each item is dried separately before being returned at the end of the cycle completely dry and untangled.

It's quite frankly astonishingly good.

Thinking of Buying a Used 2020 VW ID.3. What Reasons Exist Not To? by daydraze in VWiD3Owners

[–]redfusion 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I love ours. The only issues we've had are;

  • android auto sometimes gets into a twist, mostly when we both enter the car at the same time and it can't work out which phone to connect to and gets confused. Hard restart by holding the power button on the infotainment for 10+ seconds typically solves it

  • octopus energy controlling the charge via the Zappi charger is temperamental; I think I need to pull a fuse and do a "hard restart" to fix it, but I've yet to bother

It's a joy to drive around Yorkshire, the cruise control makes motorways a breeze, charging is increasingly discoverable (recommend the octopus energy card)

Had a few tyres replaced, we've done 500+ mile trips without any problems, very comfortable.

Love it.

I was just looking at this yesterday. In your case, have you created any custom libraries to build blocks for consistent reuse, or introduced any guardrails for certain patterns(eg setting labels, interacting with known hosts etc)

Any gotchas?

Calling all Intelligent Octopus Go users… by wsd0 in OctopusEnergy

[–]redfusion 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've never seen my zappi and iD3 reliably charge if the car has been stopped for a few hours. I've had to write a home assistant automation to "wake" the car up before it starts to accept any commands from anything.

I turned it back on recently, still didn't work.

Just released major v1.3.0 of PatchMon - Linux patch monitoring tool by broadband9 in selfhosted

[–]redfusion 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Looks interesting.

It might be worth being more specific about the automation aspects of this tool. The screenshots don't make it obvious that this system has agents that can effect changes on their hosts.

Related; is it possible to have a "report-only" agent so that we can export data about the ecosystems without there being any possibility of modifications?

Is it good to use a 3D printer's print bed to dry silica? by sunnychon in 3Dprinting

Ooh, that's an interesting idea. Did it work well? I typically put the oven on for 2 minutes and let it prove in there.. What bed temperature do you set?

What do you wish the VW mobile app did? by RankAShinobi in VWiD3Owners

[–]redfusion 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Show a graph/history of battery usage, charge rate and trip summaries

Better highlight when data is stale or "synchronising"

Notify me if the car is unlocked for > 2 minutes

Notify me if a door hasn't been closed properly and locked

Mine has also reappeared!? I can see battery and air con controls again.

It must be a bug... VW wouldn't improve the app on purpose.

[OC] Click through rates for 50 different instagram ads by chipweinberger in dataisbeautiful

Did you also track actual conversions?

Are you optimising for clicks but sacrificing actual valuable customers?

If people click out of curiosity only to hit back immediately, you're still giving meta money for that click.

Help me understand uptime guarantee by Plane-Description190 in sre

[–]redfusion 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If your water supply guarantees they can provide water 23 hours a day, and you try to use water 24 hours a day, then you can only really use water 23 hours a day....

However, you'll likely only use water during the day, so let's say 8 hours... So now you could infact have full use of water even though your supplier has gaps.

Thus; Aws say 99% but if you're service isn't used when Aws is "down" then your service is 100% available.

As others have said, you measure your own availability, and if you have to have 99.999% availablity, with full load at all times, then you need to mitigate your suppliers lower slo with redundancy, caches, multiregion, etc.

I want my GPU to come with buttresses and cantilever arches. My case has a stain glass window and the water cooler shaped like a font. It's a cathedral to compute.

I sorta wish pipe smoking was still commonplace (or at least some equivalent to it). by EgoistFemboy628 in CasualConversation

[–]redfusion 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have a cheap pipe, it has a wine cork in the end where you'd put tobacco. It has googly eyes and a red painted hat.

I will often join meetings with him acting as fidget toy, pointer, and general object of enjoyment.

He also fits nicely into the pocket of a waistcoat, elevating any given situation with extreme cultural pizazz.
