+1 for microsandbox. I've been using their golang SDK (https://docs.microsandbox.dev/sdk/go/sandbox) @v0.5.10 to create sandboxes, attach them to agent sessions to execute, and then throw away, all in a raspberry pi 5 k3s cluster (as they have ARM support, if you're into that sort of thing). The microsandbox code is still a bit in flux (since it hasn't reached v1.0 API stability yet), but it's definitely worth checking out as it looks to have a solid foundation.

(edit: ahh sorry, meant to post this to above comment)

I couldn't find an explicit reference for the naming, but for anyone wondering there is a Hamilton example: https://github.com/apache/burr/tree/main/examples/multi-agen...

^ I second Envoy Gateway! It has support for HTTPRoute like all the others, but also TCPRoute, UDPRoute, TLSRoute, GRPCRoute backed by Envoy and they have worked great for me on EKS clusters I manage for work. The migration from Ingress API to Gateway API hasn’t been bad, as you can have both running side-by-side (just not using the same LB) and the EnvoyPatchPolicy has been great for making advanced changes for things not covered by the manifests

I think the op was trying to highlight this nugget in one of the thread emails[0]:

>And now, I just got an email from Linus saying "we're now talking about git rm -rf in 6.18", after previously saying we just needed a go-between.

Edit to add that LWN noted this at the end of the "The rest of the 6.17 merge window" post[1].

I clicked on this link using a work computer, and for the first time in years I was frightened about what might show up. Not because my work might find out, but at the thought of another disturbing image that you can't unsee being burned into my mind. Thank goodness it really is a Unix-like OS.

I had tried to get into Dune many years ago, but found it hard to keep track of all that was going on. I wish I had pushed through, because I'm now enthralled by the Dune universe. I can say that the movie helped lay a foundation for me that has made the book far more enjoyable - to the point where I'm almost finished with the audiobook after only starting it last week!

Congrats to Hashicorp for this milestone!

We've been using terraform for a couple of years now to manage our infra for dev/qa/prod, and aside from minor HCL changes we haven't had any major problems keeping up with the latest versions. Having the ability to rebuild everything (Kubernetes, DNS, MySQL, etc.) automatically has saved us more than once!

I've recently started using Terrastruct, which I've come to enjoy as I feel like I can quickly put together business logic and share it with the team without the tool getting in the way: https://terrastruct.com/

Ah my apologies - We use Bazel to build our services, and the output artifacts were then pulled into Nix and deployed as Nix packages. Bazel has _excellent_ support taking the same application code and creating Docker images from them (https://github.com/bazelbuild/rules_docker#language-rules), and the tools available for deploying containers is orders of magnitude more feature-full and higher quality than what you get with Nix today. So we no longer have Nix anywhere in our pipeline, and all of our artifacts are now deployed inside containers.

We've been using Nix for deploying a Rails app for an enterprise customer for quite a few years now. One area where it shines for us is the ability to build it on relatively recent version of Ubuntu and deploy to a (almost EOL) RHEL6 box. Bundling, assets and various other tasks take just a few minutes. We also have ~20 Go services that are also deployed via Nix, and building takes seconds.

However, it can be quite cumbersome to get a Nix expression to the point where it builds reliably for something that takes multiple steps like a Rails app, especially if you're building on macOS and deploying to Linux. It's come a _long_ way in recent years, but with Enterprise customers now embracing containerization we migrated everything to that and haven't looked back.

For the last few years I've had the Feynman Lectures [1,2] sitting in my queue, and I've finally gotten around to starting them in the last week. It's been a fun ride so far, and it's been nice to have the time to digest the lessons without having to run off somewhere. It's also helped to have the MIT OCW lectures as a reference [3], in which I found a book title "Quantum Mechanics and Experience" [4] that I started reading as well and so far has been the most down-to-earth introduction to Quantum Mechanics that I've found. I highly recommend it.

About 2 years ago I had a customer that required their own private mail server. I set up Mail-in-a-Box on a $5 Digital Ocean droplet, and they've been happy with it ever since.

The integration with Let's Encrypt and a relatively smooth upgrade process has made it one of the more enjoyable services I manage. I would highly recommend it.

Excellent blog post to introduce the vue.js concepts (http://blog.evanyou.me/2015/10/25/vuejs-re-introduction/). I was able to get up and running pretty quickly with a good understanding of the tool. Thank you for putting this together.
