  • An the issue is only inside the network? I’d complain to IT about that, yeah. Maybe they are overriding the DNS record with their own DNS server or something.

    Can you set your own DNS servers on your client devices? Does cloudflare or quad9 resolve it?

  • Lmao, fair enough. That was some high quality prompting.

    The thing is, I also work in ML, and these are exactly the sorts of things that loads of ML people don’t know. I guess it’s the result of sprinting through your education to hit ML as quickly as possible without really getting a grasp on the tools you’re using. Which, given the job market, is kind of understandable. But I wasn’t at all surprised to see this combination of job title and topic.

  • This is true. However many big maintained public images are multi-arch so down for ARM, and the fact that Docker runs in a VM on Windows and OSX when you install it doesn’t matter to most people. On Linux indeed it reuses the host’s kernel (which is why containers can be a lot lighter than VMs)

  • It’s not NAS specific, it’s platform independent - that’s the whole point. You have an application you want to run, and you package it all up into a docker image which contains not only the application but it’s dependencies and their dependencies all the way down to the OS. That way you don’t need to worry about installing things (because the container already has the application installed), all you have to do is allocate some resources to the container and it’s guaranteed* to work

    *nothing is ever as simple as it first appears

    One area where this is really helpful is in horizontally scaling workloads like web servers. If you get a bunch more traffic, you just spin up a bunch more containers from your server image on whatever hardware you have laying around, and route some of the traffic to the new servers. All the servers are guaranteed to be the same so it doesn’t matter which one serves the request. This is the thing kubernetes is very good at.

    Edit: see caveats below

  • Fair enough! Do you cover your costs for it? I see you’ve got live stats - what’s your monitoring stack?

    This is just really cool, I’d love to build an actually useful service like this and have it at least pay for itself but so many things are so daunting! (Payments, SRE, having a nice front end, …)

  • It’s absolutely orientalist, similar to Zelazny’s Lord of Light but for Islam instead of Hinduism. For these, I was able to view them as a product of their time and enjoy the story even while recognizing some problematic elements.

    I found the 2nd book to be a bit of a slog, and I enjoyed the 3rd a lot more again. Since it was about new characters once again coming of age (… kind of), it has that same sense of exploration and discovery as the 1st. The 1st is definitely my fave so far though.

  • Wage Labor and Capital - Karl Marx. It’s very small but I’m taking my time with it

    I’m in kind of a rotation of Sci-Fi (last: Children of Dune), classic novels (Dune kinda counts but my last from this category was Lord of the Flies), and nonfiction/leftism

  • What exactly is Hyprland? I looked at the site quick but I couldn’t quite figure it out from the description.

    Disclaimer: I’ve only ever used Linux servers, not really as a desktop beyond vanilla Ubuntu
