What if writing code becomes artisanal? Like hand crafted is more valuable in some sectors.

What is the best VPS these days? I have used DO for years and it feels slower than ever. Who should it try?

I use a usb capture and the app screenflow. I can even edit in the app.

It is amazing to see how far Harvester has come. In the next version VMs can boot from external storage through a CSI. Welp Portworx by Pure Storage has a CSI that can talk to hardware, aka a FlashArray.

My CSI is better than your CSI. :D

You could easily stack 5+ nodes in a 1u. The power is not that bad either.

Longhorn uses a bit of resources. It also uses the local disk on the nodes with iscsi and nfs. Are you running VMs? or Managed k8s?

YouTube video by Clemenko - Kubernetes Firefighter Simple RKE2, Longhorn, NeuVector and Rancher Install - Updated for 2024

as a former rancher employee I would use k3s and longhorn. Here is a video about install it : youtu.be/ONes6pv_9J4?...

05.01.2025 12:56 โ€” ๐Ÿ‘ 0    ๐Ÿ” 0    ๐Ÿ’ฌ 1    ๐Ÿ“Œ 0

Where is the storage? If you have an external NFS then you can simple create the PV before the PVC : github.com/clemenko/k8s...

Or I would use Longhorn longhorn.io

Which kubernetes distro are you using?

lol. We had an 8tb drive. We needed 30 days of coverage. So yes we have an NVR now with 4-8tb drives. works like a champ. I really appreciate local storage instead of the cloud.

I have had both. I upgraded because the wife wanted a nature cam. The Max, with the drive, can run Protect and record. That is the only difference.

I personally love all of the โ€œmaybe Kubernetes is not the solutionโ€œ conversations going on right now. I wish swarm was still a thing.

What changed for all of us?
