It’s official: KubeCon + CloudNativeCon EU 26 is our biggest event yet. With 13,500+ attendees in Amsterdam, we’ve surpassed the size of a small town. From drones to a full-size glider on the keynote stage, we're keeping up the energy! Let's keep cloud native moving for Day 2! #KubeCon #CNCF

Here's the build video for my Kubernetes carrier at Kubecon youtu.be/5-5KAxYpaVU

And this misses: over 300,000 *contributors*! Writ large, it's the largest software development project in human history (by a longshot!), with a pace of innovation that no one company could possibly match. There is no innovation like open source innovation.

ah ok, so this FCC router ban is basically a shakedown, requiring foreign router manufacturers (which is pretty much all of them) to obtain "conditional approval" from DHS or DOD, which you can assume involves a fee of some kind

Maybe I'm paranoid but I also wonder if they're paving the way for govt surveillance of router traffic.

Exactly the first thing I thought when I read this this morning. Should be only a day or two before the CEOs of these companies just coincidentally visit Mar a Lago for dinner...

"hey, while you're here, would you mind putting a backdoor into your gear for ICE agents?"

Grandma's TP-Link is a natsec threat, but meanwhile FedRamp is totally fine? www.propublica.org/article/micr...

FYI if you're using Trivy in CI right now: 75 of 76 tags on the official GitHub Action were force-pushed to serve malware. Affects 10K+ workflows. If you're not on v0.35.0, assume compromise. cc: @campuscodi.risky.biz @thehackernews.bsky.social @zackwhittaker.com @bleepingcomputer.com

This is a long article, but very much worth your time. It also tells the story of how FedRAMP has turned into a rubber stamp for well funded software vendors. And yet it still serves as a barrier to entry for new contenders. Meanwhile, the USG suffers massive tech debt, despite massive spending.

For anyone impacted by Epic Games layoffs etc we actually have 6 open recs for full time software engineers and three for managers at TRR including on my team (DevOps/Data Platform)

There's never been a better time to build your own router—a practice which the FCC will hopefully not *also* ban for US #homelab consumers :) www.youtube.com/watch?v=04oL...

By the way, we just published another privilege-escalation CVE in ingress-nginx: github.com/kubernetes/k... 🚨 This will be the final, final release. Please migrate off ingress-nginx as soon as possible. 🚨

I have a joke about UDP, but you might not get it.

I know that people often say I am critical of the Republicans/Randian economics because I am an anarchist who is hoping to be a poet in the commune when the revolution comes but I actually have two jobs and own two houses with no mortgage and have a lovely husband who is a Power BI champion

For non-STIRs knowers this term structure shape (hike pricing followed by cut pricing) is called "recession time" and it's NOT fun.

At 22 I was a physics grad student teaching assistant, had a sexual relationship with a grad student (older) who claimed I abused him by cheating on him and possibly had nudes of me (non consensual). None of this is relevant anymore, 20 years later

I want to be clear because there seems to be confusion, I already work as a part time Library 1/clerk (in addition to full time DevOps) and I am not interested in other part time library positions/internships with no path to full time positions

Over six bucks a gallon at most stations near me, now. But there are a couple where it's as low at $5.59.

My husband and I have a friend who's an engineer and got a heat pump for his house, the most expensive furnace replacement, and has subsequently paid 1k+ electric via RG&E bills/month and now is selling(to someone who can afford the expense) but we need a lot of change before this is commonly viable

Watching both sides of this war blatantly manipulate the US stock market is maddening.

It is interesting how desperate markets are to believe him.

He is so shook lol. He’s always bad on camera, but I’ve never seen him this bad. He knows how terrible this situation is.

The problem with Github sponsors using USD as its de facto currency is that my income is tied to the value of the dollar, which I'm not thrilled about given the nature of the current madman running the country.

morbidly curious to see just how long Wall Street can maintain the "look, I'm sure King Temper Tantrum the Senile has a plan, it'll all be fine" consensus by simple fiat

"flying less and driving slower", Jimmy Carter has been redeemed.

Sue the messenger!

This new columnist they hired is based as hell.

"working from home more" yeah, this aint 2020. offices didnt like that and told their employers it aint an option now. i can't just call up and say "i'm not coming in any more" as for flying less? i cant afford to fly before this mess. what's less than zero?

People cannot afford groceries.

oh my god donnie you really did it

When I present my academic work on the political economy of Silicon Valley, I can't tell you how many times I've heard the response "they wouldn't do that - it would lose them money." But @olufemiotaiwo.bsky.social has it in a nutshell here - "control, power, impunity" are the real goals.

We’re quickly learning that our checks, balances, and separation of powers were always dependent good faith, and therefore incapable of preventing destruction wrought by the very sort of shameless, arrogant, mad president they were designed to contain.

Any time I support taxing the very wealthy I need to emphasize that in my opinion it needs to either make it illegal to use unrealized gains as collateral for loans or go the mad Biden route and straight up tax unrealized gains over X dollars because otherwise they have no "income" that is taxable
