Important pro tip: docker build --output type=local,dest=lol.tar is /very much not the same goddamn thing/ as docker build --output type=tar,dest=lol.tar.

Also the former is, like, two grazillion times slower, /weird I fucking wonder why/???

(spoiler: many thousands of small disk read/write cycles is significantly less efficient than one (1) very large such cycle)

@bitprophet I mean, given that the first one creates a literal directory named lol.tar while the second one creates an actual tar file, it would be a hell of a surprise if the result were the same, wouldn't it??? 😂

Deuxième journée à #devoxx!

Je commence par la présentation de Sonia Seddiki sur la sécurité informatique et j'apprends même de nouveaux mots: catachrétique, c'est quand on utilise un trucà une fin à laquelle il n'était pas destiné au départ :-)

Pendant ce temps-là, le workshop de Sandra Ahlgrimm et Julien Dubois sur l'observabilité en Java est plein!

@fasterthanlime damn, that sucks terribly. I wonder if they've been confused by the whole EI explanation. I'm in the same boat as you are (but with a US LLC) and I typically say "I'm a freelancer", which most interlocutors seem to understand. I hope they'll clarify their policy!

Hi @Quinnypig

How did that work out?

(Unfortunately I don't think you were right.)

#Kubernetes

jpetazzo,
@jpetazzo@hachyderm.io avatar

@larsmb @Quinnypig I wonder what will happen first: global IPv6 deployment or Kubernetes becoming the mere implementation detail that it should be (like e.g. "cloud") 😅

(This lukewarm take being inspired by the work that I'm doing these days around IPv6 and k8s, probably the least attractive combination of buzzwords one can have nightmares about, save for e.g. "AWS" and SAP" maybe)

jpetazzo,
@jpetazzo@hachyderm.io avatar

@larsmb I'm not quite there yet, but I can see how ipv6 adoption would have drastically simplified k8s networking :)

What external hard disks do people recommend at the moment, specifically for backups?

I know WD, seagate and sandisk all have had bad data loss issues due to software that the manufacturers we're putting on the drives

@thisismissem I have a handful of Samsung T5 and T7 and I'm pretty happy with them (they're small, fast - I regularly get 1 GB/s with them) but that's just anecdotal experience and I haven't compared with other brands!

iRobot facing "death" because it only has 46% of the market is bonkers to me; capitalism has forgotten what to do with a mature company.

"We sell vacuums to half the population" is no longer a valid business model, evidently.

@tess if I understand the article, they're dying because they stopped innovating (or stopped innovating in the areas that matter), thus losing first mover advantage to cheaper alternatives; or is there more to it?

My hot take on the Vision Pro is the same as my hot take on every AR/VR/Mixed Reality headset produced in the past checks notes 20 years: "If most women can't use your product for 4 hours straight without throwing up, don't try to tell me that it's the future of anything." I said what I said.

Women can use a smartphone indefinitely without nausea. They can use a laptop indefinitely. A gaming console and TV indefinitely. But XR headsets cause motion sickness in most women in under an hour. 🤷🏿‍♂️

jpetazzo,
@jpetazzo@hachyderm.io avatar

@mekkaokereke is this real, though? It's the first time I hear that women are more prone to VR sickness. I was surprised because around me I know more women than men using it (on a tiny sample size for sure!) so I looked up and apparently recent research questions whether sex/gender are actually contributing factors.

jpetazzo,
@jpetazzo@hachyderm.io avatar

@mekkaokereke @BeachsideReader Damn, I'd love to see a copy of the Reason&Brand book to see how strong the effect was. I did a bit of research and couldn't find a lot of hard data yet. The only table I found so far (in https://www.frontiersin.org/articles/10.3389/fnhum.2021.757735/full) doesn't show a statistically meaningful difference between m&f subjects (the difference is below the standard deviation; and if anything, women reported slightly less sickness than men after light use). 🤔

My #dell xps 13 died (again) a couple of weeks ago, and Dell changed the mainboard.

Unfortunately, less than 10 days later, the WiFi doesn't work anymore (the interface doesn't even show up in "lspci" or in the BIOS hardware overview). Also, one of the charging ports seems busted.

I'm chatting with Dell Technical Support (on WhatsApp, this is the 21st century) and it's going great: after confirming that the BIOS was showing "W-Fi Device {None}" they suggested to move it closer to the router. 😬

I am curious about the phrase "reconciliation loop."

I learned the term while working on a Kubernetes thing. Assumed it was a standard term from control theory. I never studied the topic but am familiar with the concept of open/closed feedback loops (I'm all about feedback loops).

However I haven't been able to find references that predate the first instance of the term in the Kubernetes documentation (commit https://github.com/kubernetes/website/commit/bb4da3186b9d904cc1add3ebeb617c65e5c6d165 from March 2, 2016).

Anyone know the origin?

jpetazzo,
@jpetazzo@hachyderm.io avatar

@testobsessed I don't have a concrete lead but I remember that early on, it was defined (or at least, explained to me😅) as the reconciliation between "actual state" and "desired state", so I wonder if extending the search to these adjacent concepts could surface something interesting? Either way, I wish I could /subscribe :)

@fasterthanlime I'm gonna add to that the particular subset of "alpinism metaphors"

I remember some all hands where we were told something along the lines of "we only reached first camp at Everest! That's good, but the hardest part is still in front of us!"

I was that close to asking "how many of us do you intend to leave dying in a frozen ditch in the way there" 😶

Welp. was awful. I hate being critical when hundreds of people make art, but this is just a huge miss. It was 40% Aquaman quipping and 60% video game cutscene. And not good cutscenes, just Goes On Forever cutscenes. I was looking for the Skip button.

Aquaman was bad

Dans la série ...

Azure essaie d'économiser des bouts de chandelle en virant quelques fichiers des images de VM AKS pour gagner de la place disque. Bilan les images ne marchent plus avec les GPU les plus récents (les H100 par exemple).

Bon c'est pas grave, on parle juste d'instances à $100/heure 🤯

Does anybody else make, what I like to call, phonetic typos?

As in, typos based on how the word sounds as opposed to how it's actually spelled. A prerequisite for this being a real phonetic typo is knowing how a word is spelled and still making that typo.

I make these regularly, and they look very odd because they don't look like regular typos.

They are also way more common when I write English, as opposed to languages with more phonetic spelling rules.

jpetazzo,
@jpetazzo@hachyderm.io avatar

@ainmosni it happens to me once in a while; more frequently when writing in English than French; and I often catch it a few seconds later - it feels like it happens when I'm less attentive/focused, but it's hard to measure objectively so that last item is to be taken with a grain of salt!

jpetazzo,
@jpetazzo@hachyderm.io avatar

@ainmosni Maybe! The first times it happened, I thought, "oh well, it looks like my phonetic understanding of English is now good enough that I'll make that kind of typo... That's great... I guess? 😬"

(And re/ German, it doesn't happen, but mostly because I don't type enough German to have a good sample size😞)

The week after Thanksgiving will always be deeply bittersweet to me now.

This month, and next week in particular, mark the anniversary of the Hachyderm incident. @nova, @Taniwha, @dma, @malte, @quintessence, and I worked around the clock for over a week to migrate Hachyderm from Nóva's basement into Europe

I am forever indebted to that incident for launching my public speaking career, and to this team for becoming my beloved friends

And to Nóva, for chasing the dopamine, for tying us together

    @Phipe @LaKorin @scudery il y a un usage du paiement sans contact que je trouve vraiment top: pour payer dans les transports en commun quand on voyage. Dans les villes qui l'utilisent, au lieu de devoir trouver où/comment acheter des tickets (avec des systèmes différents dans chaque ville), on peut juste monter dans le bus et payer comme ça et ça juste marche. Énorme gain de temps et on évite d'accumuler des cartes/tickets qui périment/se démagnétisent.

    has anyone seen an explanation of nix flakes that explains the design goals of flakes & the fundamental problems they're trying to solve before diving into the syntax?

    i'm looking for something like:

    • the goal of flakes is to let people define packages in an uncoordinated way without a central repository
    • the problem is coordinating dependencies: you could easily end up with an explosion where you end up installing 1000 versions of libc
    • the way flakes address that problem is ???
    jpetazzo,
    @jpetazzo@hachyderm.io avatar

    @b0rk @eljojo yes! I had drafted a reply to your question about high disk usage:

    "very casual nix user here (so take this with a boulder of salt) but that seems normal: with a flake you end up with a "dedicated" version of everything, all the way down to the libc, and if the flake is a bit old (and the rest of your system is up to date) or if one of the low level libs has been customized a tiny bit, it won't share anything with your system."

    The comparison with a container is very apt!
