Re:Swiss parliament lifts ban on new nuclear power plants
on Thursday June 18, 2026 @11:50AM (#48587249)
that's just lifting the ban and is pure virtue signaling. none of the electricity producers in switzerland actually want build nuclear power plants, because they are way too expensive.

I’ve heard this argument before but I don’t get it. It’s trivial to setup your code editor to format on save. Why do people not do that but rather complain about files linter checks on CI?

ok, that makes sense. A better Helm would be nice. timoni.sh is getting better and better, but Cue is a big hurdle.
Unfortunately, I'm not a big fan of the yaml-hell that crossplane is either.
But as a Terraform replacement systeminit.com is still the strongest looking contender.
Re:Yoke Is Cool

Looks promising but it starts with a (justified) rant about terraform and then goes into how to replace Helm.
I am confused. Can yoke be used to create and manage infrastructure or just k8s resources?

Increased productivity has to more, not less toiling in the last 50 or so years.
This is not gonna be different with AGI (if it ever happens). Some people will get very rich while the rest is still gonna work just as much as they are now. The jobs just gonna suck even more.

I love seeing innovation in this sector. I’ve long felt that there must be a better way than terraform and pulumi. Excited to try it out.

It’s not integrated well into the UI and thus a big hassle to use. Much easier to just checkout the branch and create a commit (or just write a comment…)

that's not how it works though. Inflation affects a lot of goods where you have no choice, you just need it (e.g. food, utilities, housing, transportation).

Here you can scan what you buy with your phone and when you exit the store pay with app.
I can pack the things straight in my bike bag and just walk out of the store. So much more convenient than everything else.

Re:Keycloak with PostgreSQL on Kubernetes
on Tuesday April 11, 2023 @12:53PM (#35527811)
I gotta say the (new) keycloak operator is super basic and doesn't really support changes in image tag. it always assumes a keycloak upgrade and will automatically scale down your keycloak to 1 instance to do an "upgrade". of course this will overload that one node, it will crash, and all your sessions are gone.
I'm not sure if anybody is actually using keycloak & kc-operator in production on kubernetes.
the state of the documentation and guides make it look like it's an abandoned product.
