The original EverQuest theme song was mine. Captured the epic wide-eyed wonder of going on an adventure perfectly.

Hey there! And thank you for reading.

Let's take your example, as a Nomad cluster operator. The Acme Corporation may have a team for provisioning and maintaining this Nomad cluster. The organization wants to give customers the option for self-service. As a Nomad cluster operator on the Nomad team, because you are empowered with agency and visibility, you get to think of creative solutions to the problem of self-service. The billing team? They're doing that too. And your two teams may collaborate. But the onus is on you to be creative and work within your skillset to best deliver.

Maybe you decide to go sit with the billing team for a week to understand the provisioning flow from the moment a customer presses pay to the automatic creation of a new Nomad cluster. Because you are empowered, you act. You're happier because you don't have to go through seven layers of command to be effective.

Does that help?

 

I'm the author. With 5 years experience as a DevOps Engineer then Lead, I've wanted, for a very long time, to distill my critique and pave a way toward a healthier practice of DevOps. Before anyone jumps to tell me how DevOps Engineer is a misnomer, I address this in the article.

I wrote this piece because DevOps has all too often been misunderstood as a practice. Here I attempt to examine successful DevOps practice as a sociotechnical solution that weds culture and tools (the DevOps most are familiar with) with radical agency and visibility. I reference some stupendous thinkers in this space, like Jabe Bloom and Andrew Clay Shafer who were the first to argue for a sociotechnical approach to our work as IT professionals.

I run Guix System on my personal laptop and Project Bluefin on my work machine.

Guix is even easier to get started with now thanks to the Guix Packager , a web UI for writing Guix package definitions.

Project Bluefin auto-updates thanks to its use of container images deliver system updates. It's also just a great platform to get started writing containerized apps, since it ships with rootless Podman by default and you can easily add new developer tools using just commands.

I deeply love the story of Grendel. He's left an invisible imprint on me since I was a young boy fishing issues from my father's oversized trunk that squatted tempestuously in our living room. Thank you for this summary! I learned a few things I hadn't known.

For those who grew up with Grendel and now work in tech, like me, I did a talk on mindfulness and conflict in the workplace using the leitmotif of Grendel. Matt Wagner was kind enough to allow me to use his art for the talk.

Hey there, for a very simple start there's the compose.yaml file at the bottom of my comment here.

The Intel discrete cards are fantastic value for money. There's plenty of folks on the internet who can attest to this. Intel's support story in general (so not just graphics cards) on Linux has been nothing less than sterling. If you're using any Linux kernel you can expect Intel stuff to just work. It's been this way for at least a decade.

WebOS powers TVs now and, from the article, Amazon intends this replacement to cover their Fire tablet line. WebOS ticks all their boxes, especially since apps in Amazon's new flavor are intended to be delivered as React Native web apps.

I'm devastated they didn't choose to pick up webOS for this.

If you're looking for the GitLab version of Codeberg's hosted Forgejo Git forge, there's Framagit hosted by Framasoft.

This sounds like something on your end as I get cached builds every time, rootlessly even. Podman also supports cache mounts.

Check my comment history for an example of a simple bind mount compose.yaml I use for developing a small Python project. It's exactly the same as Docker Compose (since Podman Compose follows the Compose spec) but if you're just getting started, it might be a good skeleton to build on.

 

I thought this was really cool: it's backed by a non-profit and one of their supported distros is Guix System!

 

OCI images that you can turn into a full-fledged developer workstation shipping Devbox, Nix, Homebrew, devcontainers and DevPod with one command. Pretty swanky!

 

Is it Apple's Magic Trackpad? If I dual-boot Windows (for work, I swear!) does it work equally as well across both?

 

My error message when trying to run minikube from a guix shell is bash: /gnu/store/ixry3pdrrb52mdiypmlrdn19c7gcc5r4-minikube-1.31.2/bin/minikube: No such file or directory

According to ldd and file, it looks like everything is hunky dory as far as where all my linkers are pointing. I'm also including an strace further below. I've run out of options for debugging this and would welcome any feedback and suggestions!

ldd shows what looks like clean RPATHs:

I just moved to a new phone and I just want all tabs bookmarked. Opening all of them on desktop won't work because that option usually only loads the first hundred or so before locking up.
