You can also use Cilium for Load Balancing too rather than metal-lb of kubevip - especially if your already deploying Cilium as your CNI anyway

I vote you just make Cilium the default CNI ;)

One of the things I love about macos is how simple and accessible it is to change basic settings of inbuilt functionality.... really sets itself apart from a No GUI Linux installation.

nice

Thank you for the feedback, very much appreciated!

Kubernetes Finalizers: Deep Dive into PVC Deletion Learn how Kubernetes finalizers work, why PVCs get stuck in Terminating, and how to troubleshoot issues with CSI drivers

A long time ago I was working with a #Kubernetes CSI a lot and met head on with Kubernetes finalizers. I wrote a little to understand and overcome those issues.

Now I've spent some more time understanding them, and wrote a better deep dive.

YouTube video by eBPF & Cilium Community KubeCon EU 2025 - Cilium Project Updates

🎥 If you weren't at KubeCon you might not have seen me doing my best impression of a news reporter delivering the @cilium.io project updates. So much fun making this with @carlagg.bsky.social and James Spurin!

📚 If you’d like a copy of my short book “What is #eBPF?” we are giving them away at the @isovalent.bsky.social booth in not just one, but TWO book signings today at #kubecon. Come say hello at 1pm or 6:15pm 👋✍️

Today I'm brewing something up with an exploit POC and using Tetragon with @cilium.io to detect and protect against it!

Looking for that next cool role? Hit me up for questions and referrals

Nice, send that over!

It's true....

I read somewhere if you can't be arsed to do it, just do 5 minutes. Most of the time because you gave the start of 5 minutes, you'll continue further.

Complex overlay and underlay networking... yep no problem can smash through that.

Add some updates to a YAML file and get the formatting right first time, second time, tenth time.

Not a chance!

Too late you've already broken things!

Imagine all the things you loved about VMware, but in #eBPF....

For the platform team that wants security without having to airgap their environment:

- Network Policy fundamentals
- Identity-based security approaches
- Best practices for least privilege access
- Policy creation, management, and auditing
- Monitoring with dashboards

@ticketmaster.com introducing whack-a-mole to select seats to purchase on an interactive map has now become one of the worst UI design's imaginable, on mobile and desktop.

They really are one of the worst brands out there!

Yeah I also noticed some accounts on both don't post equally on both currently

Fair, I think I'm at the point of just cutting it off completely, :D I guess for you and mutedeck, you need the reach?

Not everyone has come across to BS from my old life on the bird app.

For those of you straddling both platforms, why?
