Just a guy who likes to build cool things and share them with others.
I know a little about a lot of things, but I've spent most of my career automating things and building systems. Currently I spend most of my time automating things with Python and testing things with the Robot Framework.
I promise I'm much more fun than what I just said.

It's twice now in two days that I've done something non-trivial with Kubernetes and it's just worked the first time.
I have to admit that it's a little spooky.

Wow. Just when you think 45 can't get more inept, he goes and ups the ante on not-remotely-enforceable EOs.
Here's a tip Cheetobro, the government can't limit political speech. That includes speech that calls you a fucking liar. You fucking liar.

I was finally able to get an instance of Nextcloud running on my Kubernetes cluster yesterday that used an NFS-backed persistent volume. Hooray!
I have to say that ingresses and persistent volumes have been the trickiest things to understand while learning about Kubernetes. They're a little weird to wrap your head around.

Racism is bad and so are sexism, homophobia, and transphobia. Saying those things are good is not some kind of thought diversity, and will lead to an immediate block from me if I see you do it, and a report if you're on this instance.
These comments are not directed at anyone or anything in particular, I just think it's good to remind people these are part of our community standards here on m.t as well as the way I personally use my account as a user.
