Postcard watercolour, of which I've not touched for a long, long time. I can see all the mistakes, but am pretty happy about it all the same. #watercolour #MentalHealthMatters #

Hurrah! So that's Ceph setup in the Talos cluster and a storage class for Ceph RBS (block storage). Real nice workflow with Proxmox - add additional disks to Talos nodes which are then added to Ceph's overall capacity. All fully replicated/redundant with scheduled backups.

Any ideas what to do with and old Odroid XU4? wiki.odroid.com/odroid-xu4/o… With a bare-metal hypervisor at home I'm struggling for useful ideas? I do like retro games but more into DevOps, so perhaps a router? Any suggestions welcome! #odroid #openwrt #homelab

New Talos/Proxmox cluster coming on nicely. Put loads of extra work into this first sprint to ensure everything is repeatable in future. Twingate connectors done and finally Rook (Ceph) tomorrow. Really want to switch CNI to Cilium for that eBPF goodness but we'll see.

All you need is.. {y = 1/x, x^2 + y^2 = 9, y = abs(-2 x), x = -3 abs(sin(y))}

Building a Terraform module for Wazuh and asked ChatGPT to generate an architecture diagram using mermaid.. Probably should have specified output as Markdown🐬

New k8s cluster up and running on my Proxmox homelab - Using Talos Linux again for this one. Great documentation.. tinyurl.com/y4wftpdu Next up will be deploying Ceph for storage (via Rook).

What's not to like about Winter - definitely my favourite time of year ☺️

Even after all this time with DevOps, you'll still see many of these typologies and anti-types - thinking which one best described your team/organisation is time well spent in my opinion. buff.ly/2IXMmJe

So I had an idea - compiling curl into an AppImage to save time.. and it become probably the single most painful experience of my life! (slight exaggeration) It hit all my weak areas - but I've learnt a ton of things I wouldn't usually come across in DevOps..

So from this point forward this shall be known to me as the 'bright-dumb-idea-crevasse' anti-pattern. If you find yourself mildly saying '`Hmm, I wonder what would happen if I..' then WATCH OUT!! But by then it's already too late 😂

A large proportion of time spent building CI/CD pipelines across the popular VCS providers is always working out your working dir and what/where files need to be to execute properly. There has to be a better way!! @github @gitlab @Bitbucket

With each run/execution, having an UI option/tab to view the tree of the filesystem inside each runner/container would go a long way. Artefacts and logs are available like this already so would be a worthy feature enhancement imho.

Been exploring Grafana Beyla, auto instrumenting a Go app running on k8s. It uses eBPF and a neat way to quickly visualise trace data.. buff.ly/3YPZR5J

Some Go concurrency resources I found helpful this week.. Concurrency is not Parallelism buff.ly/3Z8LiM4?... buff.ly/4ezIiwG... Concurrency Patterns buff.ly/3Z7isvg... buff.ly/4exguc7... Concurrency Visualised buff.ly/3YONk2A...

Great blog, great book series and even better person! OPA with Terraform sounds particularly interesting so am looking forward to digging into that 🚀
"Terraform: Up & Running," 3rd edition is now published! Curious what changed? Here's part 2/2 of a blog post series on what's been fixed in Terraform since the 2nd edition: input validation, refactoring, static analysis, policy enforcement, & maturity. blog.gruntwork.io/terraform-…

Stop using CPU limits on Kubernetes. Great writeup from @aantn tl;dr use requests and not limits! home.robusta.dev/blog/stop-u…

Been playing about a bit this evening with @tilt_dev and blown away a bit by the developer experience - container development has never been so quick!! 🚀
