Re:Ask HN: What is your dev set up like? on Thursday April 02, 2026 @02:28PM (#47618278)
I was running JetBrains suite since ~2010, but late 2025 I have switched to Helix inside Zellij + Jujutsu instead of git and not really looking back after. Took some getting used to, sometimes I miss the GUI, debugger and some of the more advanced tools, but I generally feel a lot more productive (especially in Nix/Go) with added responsiveness, can easily work on a much bulkier machine over SSH and have a real chance to learn the more universal built-in CLI/TUI tooling.

I am a cloud/devops/devex engineer (6 years experience) with a strong programming background in Python (4 years) and organically obtained Go skills.

I have 3 roughly equivalent paths to continue:

- striving to build an extensively automated platform covering the whole SDLC (from version control hosting, through build, CI/CD, providing infrastructure and ending with upkeep, monitoring & convenient maintenance). Ideally cloud-agnostic, possibly Kubernetes-based,

- turned out I feel great working on the internal tooling and automating whatever process is required to automate (mostly CI/CD in practice), would be happy to take on a Developer Experience Engineering role,

- slide back into programming roles utilising what I know best, but happy to learn something new (Rust, Elixir, Haskell) if opportunity presents itself,

Re:Apple: SSH and FileVault on Friday September 19, 2025 @10:27AM (#45302048)
I actually turned it on after the update with General > Sharing > Remote Login.

It's worth noting I had to disable and re-enable (I had it enabled to begin with) this option for SSH to start working.

Remote Management option didn't change anything for me and is currently turned off.

definitely, we're seeing a lot of fatalities this summer in Poland with illegally unlocked scooters going 1/3 to half that speed (40-70 km/h).

I'm pretty sure I got prompted once or twice before updating to app with new permissions added.
I'm also having some fun with Talos@RPi4s[0] for NAS usage.

Booted it few months ago, but only this week got to actually configure and use it.

There is an alternative implementation called dbus-broker.

Even found an issue on running it without systemd https://github.com/bus1/dbus-broker/issues/183

I am pretty sure either Ubuntu and/or Debian stripped it from default Python install.
Re:Ask HN: What work/office purchase transformed your life? on Thursday November 16, 2023 @01:43AM (#38286420)
hands down best purchase for me was a split keyboard. Had a hard time justifying it, but 2 years in it does wonders in terms of chest/back comfort compared to traditional keyboards.

second best purchase was a quality all-mesh office chair (locally purchased Ioo in my case, similar to aeron). My primary motivation was coping with heatwaves in the southern/top floor apartment (it worked great). Generally high quality and comfort warranted a second purchase for my wife after ~6 years. I was sceptical about ageing of the mesh material over the years, but after ~8 years of use you can hardly tell it apart from a freshly unboxed chair.

Does it come with flattening modules and being able to merge/patch resources or child module's resources?

I fiddled with the idea of recreating this with terranix, but kind of lost interest after license changes.

The basic motivation is to adjust/extend 3rd party modules without forking them.

Hello, my name is Christopher. I am Kubernetes, anything-as-a-Code/automation and Development Experience enthusiast. I strive to gain at least basic know-how and finally build a platform/framework covering all aspects of application/services lifecycle which is simple to use, but not overengineered or too opinionated.

I can work with anything that lets me operate repeatable tools/services/processes reliably without repeating myself too much (surely not anything M$). My experience seems to be mostly with infrastructure as a code, Kubernetes ecosystem, CI/CD (process automation) and cloud AWS

I have 5 years experience with cloud/k8s/automation (CI/CD, DevEx etc.), backed by 4 years as a Python (Django) backend development and another ~4 years (throughout university) hobby sysadmin managing own ubuntu, then arch backed home router after tinkering with DD-WRT/Tomato backed routers throughout high school.

I'm very happy with https://klog.jotaen.net/ it has extremely simple text format editable from anywhere and a command converting those to JSON (sadly not the other way around).

I've written a Python script to ease my everyday (and monthly) interactions with it like excel report for my employer https://github.com/nazarewk-iac/nix-configs/blob/main/packag...

> 5. Quickly open Grafana/Jaeger/Kiali (or anything else)

With recent kubectl/kubernetes you can port-forward the services directly without specifying pods like:

kubectl -n istio-system port-forward svc/kiali 20001:20001
