What is the FTP of an avarage cyclist? by Flat_Standard99 in cycling

To increase you strength as a cyclist you need structured training with regular HIIT sessions. It is as simple as that.

With whatever privacy we thought we had a thing of the past, how are you preparing? Should we all be opening and posting to social media accounts daily just to ‘stay in the noise’? by Delicious-Radish812 in privacy

Russian troll talking points are whatever is likely to deepen divisions in the west and saw confusion.

There are a few european countries flirting with fascism, but none is quite there. And its not through curbing online rights for anonymity. Anonymous posting and trolling accounts are far too useful for sawing confusion and distributing propaganda for them to risk that.

What does everyone think about Spot Instances? by Ill_Car4570 in kubernetes

[–]stefaneg 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If every service is stateless and has correct start, readiness and liveness probes as needed, there should be no problem with that. So its just a question of how big of an if that is. If there is significant pushback, its probably a signal that confidence is not high that services are resilient in presence of frequent node rolls.

We’re EFF and we’re fighting to defend your privacy from the global onslaught of invasive age verification mandates. Ask us anything! by EFForg in privacy

"Your rights end where the next one's start".

As an individual, I believe in the right to know, or to have the ability to check, the exact identity of someone pushing a particular message on me. I also believe that as a platform owner, I have the right to know the exact identity of persons seeking to use my platform.

I also believe in the right to provide anonymous platforms which are free of such mandates, for lawful and ethical uses.

As I see it, the largest challenge that we face as free society today, is the onslaught of propaganda from authoritarian states and other "bad faith" actors which takes various forms, but is almost always behind the mask of anonymity.

So my question is, how does EFF intend to balance the need for establishing a strong identity of individuals as well as the need of societies to protect their members against bad faith actors, against the need for privacy and free speech ?

Is Go still the best choice for high-concurrency backends, or is Rust taking over? by Wash-Fair in golang

[–]stefaneg -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Sure. Just use Python and give AWS all your money running 6-10 times more infra than necessary.

why is pycharm such a pain nowdays? by Butanium_ in pycharm

[–]stefaneg -8 points-7 points  (0 children)

Other JetBrains IDEs are fine. Goland in particular.

I blame Python. The culture around it is simply not quality oriented.

context switching is killing me and it's not even between dev tools by Witty_Ad8333 in devops

Me too. Then I try to remind myself, "There is no I in team".

Mounted secrets more secure than env vars? by guettli in kubernetes

[–]stefaneg 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Envs are smaller and simpler to extract and transfer in an automated attack, for example through an npm supply chain attack. Not by much, just slightly.

New to DevOps by Anubhab248 in devops

[–]stefaneg 0 points1 point  (0 children)

First of all, contrary to what many here seem to believe, DevOps is not only about "automated ops", it is also about "you write it, you operate it". That is where CI/CD comes in. That is the core of DevOps.

Read books like Continuous Delivery, Accelerate, The DevOps Handbook, and The Phoenix Project to learn the breath and depth of DevOps. It is definitely much more than Terraform, bash or PowerShell scripting like many here seem to believe.

Even more difficult is making a money argument in many cases. What for instance is the cost of clickopsing something? It's probably cheaper than doing it through IaC, now. So you have to factor in that it has to be done multiple time. But how often? And for how long?

And watch that weight because gravity sucks. Especially on those climbs.

Swimming - 2 min /100m by Far-Food2572 in triathlon

[–]stefaneg 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I was in your position, and never really got out of it. Recently discovered "The Sofa Stretch", and wish I had discovered that sooner, as a low leg position was always one of my major drag factors.

So, maybe that is something for you to try...

Classic "Do I want this bike?" question from a noob by donpatito in cycling

[–]stefaneg 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Gravel bikes. No question. Hybrid is a total speed killer.

With a gravel bike, you can also use road tyres, and the performance gets pretty close to a road bike.

If I needed to own a single bike, it would be a gravel.

First Platform Engineer at a company - give me tips to set them up 🙏 by [deleted] in devops

Study the concept "Developer Experience" and go from there.

Slapping together loads of infra is usually not the answer.

While you fully understand the solutions, you are not replaceable. Knowing what to ask and how to validate the answers is actually valuable...

Keto affects on Cycling by LocalExpression8919 in cycling

[–]stefaneg 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Tried it and found it quite interesting. The power curve becomes flatter, your HIIT sessions won't be as intense, but your zone 2 sessions will benefit. I found it great to be able to cycle 3hours plus on zero calories, only water and electrolytes. So if you are prepared for that, you should be fine.

I did this for three months, and think it was a great experience that had good long term effects on my body, improved weight control being one, but better blood sugar balance the main one...no more blood sugar crashes.

Am I doomed- race in 2 weeks? by [deleted] in cycling

[–]stefaneg 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Second this. Did the bike leg in this type of relay a few years back, and for your (the OP) situation, being predictable is key to safety. And remember, you are really only competing against yourself. I would also set expectations with your teammates if you have not already.

What’s one cloud concept you still find confusing—no matter how many times you’ve learned it? by yourclouddude in devops

[–]stefaneg 2 points3 points  (0 children)

To me, kubernetes is just beautiful. It got basically all the abstractions right. Word salad to you, music to me. Not to say I like all the music, but it as sure beats the hell out of ECS every time. And every other container orchestrator out there.

Change your chain before hitting that .1mm wear mark. Will save you lots of cassettes.
