When you're an #Island away from major cloud providers, you improvise. Discover how a team in #Mauritius built a distributed #K3s #Kubernetes cluster across the country from this #oSC25 talk. #EdgeComputing #openSUSE https://youtu.be/3C4mAuK3FzY?si=jKdtyAZ8g-B9qeMc

When will there be the first fully cloud native *Desktop* #Linux? I I want a full OS running inside #kubernetes
I would want to offload high AI and also common CPU tasks in a distributed way.
My OS would run in everybody's selfhosted #Talos or whatever cluster.
It would make handling (replaced) computers SO much easier.
I don't understand why no one isn't developing this already.

KwoK is hilarious to me. Like I *get* why it exists it's just funny to take the ONE, *absolutely* necessary program for a cluster and be like "naaah, we'll mock it"

Does anyone understand why #Kubernetes would occasionally create more replicas than requested for simple deployments? (Same behavior with jobs, and so on).

Like, I have replicas=1 and get 2 pods running at the same time, which messes up the whole application.

Am I missing something? Is it a bug in Minikube? In Kubernetes proper? What is going on even?

Boosts appreciated.

@mijndert and I have been working hard to create a new platform for the #tootcommunity Mastodon instance. It's completely open-source and built as Infrastructure as Code. The repository includes Kubernetes configurations, custom Helm charts, and OpenTofu code. The best part is that any changes made to this repository are instantly deployed to production.

We hope these resources will support and inspire the community.

Check it out here: https://github.com/toot-community/platform/

God damn this ACK controller is fucking broken.

It grabs a list of all endpoint services - just any of them, no need to filter or match on anything. What's that? You provided a unique primary key? Bwahahaha

Then it takes any fields off the first one listed as canon. No diffs, no looking at all the options, just "does this have not-nil? take it".

Then it blats anything on your resource with those values, and calls it done. You literally cannot have more than one endpoint service per AWS region it's so broken.

Oh and it's broken for adopting existing AWS resources too.

Weh.

Kubernetes curly: deployment with autoscaling, each pod depends on and occasionally writes-to an external database.
To minimise database reads, an in-memory cache is implemented in the application.

However, when a pod writes to the database it should invalidate that key in the cache for all pods.
This works fine for the local cache, but how to distribute that invalidation?

I suppose we could use a statefulset and then hit the service for each other running pod but that seems... messy.

I've been working at the same place for over five years now. As a consultant, that is pretty close to an eternity. We're going in different directions, and having in-house technical people doesn't seem to be where they're headed. Went to what might be the last team meeting in Copenhagen. The mood wasn't what is used to be. We had a few beers and a few laughs though. It's been fun. Love the tech. Love the people.

Anyhoo if you're looking to hire a freelance #Linux and #Kubernetes wizard, hit me up.

Just had an interesting issue with Talos Linux. The network interface names changed after I created the initial configuration. During an OS upgrade, the floating API IP was not assigned to the new `etcd` leader, resulting in a broken cluster.

Spun up a quick rescue box so I could work from within the VPC to reapply the corrected `MachineConfig`.

Fortunately, the worker nodes remained unaffected and continued to operate normally.
