9P Server mode, mounted as a Volume on K8s sounds extremely appealing. I guess the currently missing component is a 9P CSI driver
It's been a few months and there is no way back. Every time I end up on google search feels painful. The only reason I ever go back is when looking up an address

Having a single timezone worldwide would be the biggest gdp boost since the industrial revolution. Don't ping me I'll be busy converting timezones
Thank you for your blog post on your shoulder surgery @brikis98.bsky.social
I randomly came across it, in between posts about terraform, and it greatly helped me prepare for mine

Thanks for the share Julian, I'm giving superwhisper a try!
Anyone has experimented with voice assistant tools to code? Preferably running on laptop rather than on cloud. I'm getting shoulder surgery soon and anything faster than 1-hand typing would be a win.

📣Techmeme is hiring another part-time editor…for the first time in years: techmeme.com/jobs
It's a small role for now, just a few hours per week, but may expand. Our immediate need is someone who can work around this time of day (~5pm Pacific), though we may soon need to staff for other hours too.
"watermarking text" very clever!
I have been working on moving a lot of Terraform topologies to GitOps workflows using github.com/terramate-io/terramate and it's been a great experience. I can deep dive a bit on that if anyone is interested
I wrote a post about how AI will interface with end-to-end encryption. TL;DR maybe not so well! blog.cryptographyengineering.com/2025/01/17/l...
The AWS console feature we had stopped dreaming about is now real
I didn't think I would ever pay for a search engine but I've been happy with @kagi.com for the past week
This becomes a big limitation in terms of what such tools can do. No multi-steps / calling external tools without going to text
I had no idea chatgpt advanced voice mode and like don't go speech --> text --> llm --> text --> speech, but directly audio --> llm --> audio with audio encoder/decoder so they can be fast enough to converse
First post of the year! @andypavlo.bsky.social got me thinking about why Confluent didn't build WarpStream.
My conclusion: legacy infrastructure companies are going to have a tough time against cloud native, AI-enabled, post-ZIRP competitors.
Semiconductor production engineering is simply mindblowing

What's new in the database world? Spoiler alert, transactional and SQL are here to stay
I'm still missing part 2 from yesterday, but here is day 5 #AdventOfCode
github.com/n-my/advento...
I love databases because they remove so much development complexity from the application side by providing strong guarantees. Spanner / Neon / Aurora DSQL and similar also removes a lot of operation complexity. Now the main question is the price!

Not sure yet how to avoid the list copy in Go for part 2
Giving #AdventOfCode a try this year. Thank you @was.tl for putting it together!

sure checking with `aws s3 ls` instead of `aws sts get-caller-identity` means I may end up working in the wrong account but at least I'm saving 0.6s
That was interesting www.youtube.com/watch?v=x7BV...
If anyone uses another simple approach to inject values from terraform to k8s I'm interestes in learning more
hi there! mostly SRE and data stuff at dataiku
