Kelsey says several times in this interview, you donāt need kubernetes. If you are running one node you donāt need kubernetes. My question though is, would you use kubernetes? Ya I get it if you are a web developer, data scientist, backend dev, but if you are looking to bee a whole ass engineer, or infrastructure engineer, you know kubernetes, Should you use kubernetes on single node?

Models
Pydantic Docs Ā· docs.pydantic.dev [1]
I came accross from_attributes today it allows creation of pydantic models from objects such as a sqlalchemy Base Model or while nesting pydantic models. I believe in the past I have ran into some inconsistencies with nesting pydantic models and Iāll bet one had from_attributes set and another did not.
Arbitrary class instancesĀ¶
(Formerly known as āORM Modeā/from_orm).
Pydantic models can also be created from arbitrary class instances by reading the instance > attributes corresponding to the model field names. One common application of this functionality is integration with object-relational mappings (ORMs).
To do this, set the from_attributes config value to True (see the documentation on Configuration for more details).
The example here uses SQLAlchemy, but the same approach should work for any ORM.

Dang strong stance that tmux and zellij should not exist. I really do get his point though. Theres a good number of terminal features I often miss out on because I run tmux. Its an app that runs apps, and doesnāt let all of the signals back to the host. But its fantastic at what it does, and brings so much to the table that the little bit of downside it brings is well worth it to me. The other thing missing in this discussion is that I can take my hotkeys and session workflow to any machine just by running tmux. I do not need to run a certain terminal, or install it headlessly on a server to get special features just for it.

kept a few profiles of cold builds laying around to compare with. The time is

Pesos is the act of Publish Elsewhere Syncicate to Own Site. It is an indieweb
concept that I recently started applying to my own site.
here does it skip again
Note
See <https://indieweb.org/PESOS> for more information, they have a ton of
information about the indieweb
In short it is the concept of pulling data from other sites that you use and
republishing it to your own site. This gives a single source of information
for you, and protection against sites and apis changing or rug pulling. Other
people might have a lot more use cases for this, but I already begin a lot of
my data right on my site.

hover z-index and positioning
I broke my sick wikilink hover [1] recently in a refactor, today I did some
diving in to figure out what happened.
Before # [2]
As you can see in the screenshot below, the link is in a list of links, and
when the hover image pops up it sits behind all of the other text. The z-index
of the list-item is supposed to be raised above the others on hover.
[3]
Manually setting z-index to 20 in the inspector I noticed this message from
devtools, āThe position: static property prevents z-index from having an
effect. Try setting position to something other than static.ā, looking back at
some of my refactoring I had relative in an old template and it was lost.
[4]
After # [5]
After properly setting position to relative on the list-item, the hover image
is raised above the others.

Shop for drives that are certified once again by the manufacturer to work like new. Factory ReCertified drives are cost-effective alternatives compared to factory-sealed new counter parts. Additionally, unlike in mass production, the re-certification process involves closer attention to the overall operation of the hardware so that the re-certification will not have to happen a 2nd time

Donāt stop learning! Stop trying because you have a doomer outlook on ai, llms, industry and think they are taking over. If you have no hope for the future, if you stop now you are cementing in that you will be no good and the ai will be better. Many, maybe most of us in this industry go here by hard work, long nights of learning, trying to solve problems that our job had. If llms take over then the world is going to be a whole lot different, it will be a world you cannot predict or plan for. For now put your head down and succeed in the world we have today.

a night of rounds
Tonight my son and I played rounds, I pulled clips of all the final rounds of
each set of rounds. We play hardly any games with guns in them, this is one of
the few exceptions, it feels quite whimsical, fun, and strategic, and not at
all realistic or first person. The strategy part really brings me back to the

Htmx brings html [3]/css just a bit further down the complexity graph with little to no extra effort, while react allows us to go all the way full complexity at the cost of build and dev complexity to go from zero to 100 as soon as its introduced.
[4]
htmx brings us back to the ease of jquery ajax without any complex swapping or json parsing, all of the object parsing and html templating is done in the backend, the front end just tracks where to put it. HTMX couples the frontend and backend much tigher, since all of the front end html is generated in the backend, done correctly it is not possible for the front end to get out of sync and try to do things that the back end does not know how to handle, vice versa.

nvim-manager
I recently built a cli application as a nearly-one-shot-app called

[2]
Why # [3]
How is nvim manager any better # [4]
nvim-manager allows you to install pinned versions of your dotfiles, your
friends dotfiles, and distros in ~/.config. This allows you to have stable
versions that will not break installed while you change things.
Iām sure most of us have experienced the pain of installing one plugin, only to
update all of your plugins and break something.
Or, you have small changes on every machine you use, because they are all just
a bit different and now you have big merge conflicts to deal with.
All of this aside you can install a distro to get you by, or a known working
version of your own dotfiles.
So all these versions in ~/.config # [5]

Quick Start - kotaemon Docs

interesting UI for RAG based workflows, i.e. chatting with your documents. It looks like it can run a number of models, feels like ollama with RAG and a nice web ui.

Bluesky is more like Twitter than X is
joelhooks.com [1]
Bluesky is almost excatly like twitter was when I joined years ago. Itās gone crazy lately bogged deep in politics, bots, and ads. Iāve seen like two scroll pages of ads in a row, its nuts. What I did not know before Joel pointed out here is that the feed I am looking at is my following feed, its only feed of people I follow in descending order. On bluesky you get to pick your feed!!! This feels like tweetdeck did back when we were able to run that. You could tune in search terms and save them it was glorious. Bluesky has some really interesting ones that you can use like popular with friends, only posts, my bangers, that have a pre defined algorithms.

This man is responsible for making gaming on linux what it is today. Such a heartfelt story to hear that reviving his dadās machine was at the core of what drove him to do what he has done for the wider gaming on linux community. Update on your schedule, remove all the tracking and bloatware, this is what drove him to start using linux before making it accessible for his Dad.
But really do update, this is not your 2002 PHP box, things need updated and regular updates help the process.

Today I learned that the docs in postiz are a bit behind, (fantastic docs btw,
they are to the point, and cover almost all of what you need). The docs state
that you need to include an R2 bucket to handle uploads.
This issue [1] shows that
more work has been done, one of which is local storage. The compose
file [2] they use in the
quick start has the required env variables to set this up.
STORAGE_PROVIDER: "local"
UPLOAD_DIRECTORY: "/uploads"
NEXT_PUBLIC_UPLOAD_DIRECTORY: "/uploads"
looking into my running instance I can see my images there.

we beat trailmakers
Today we broke through the atmosphere in trailmakers ready for pickup from
those back at mission conrol.
I havenāt posted a lot of gaming content to by blog, idk why, but I think I
am going to start, especially for the ones that are good memories with my
son.
Today we hit 100% of the required parts required to build the space ship and
leave the atmosphere of the planet that the story is set in. Trailmakers is a
game where you design and build your own vehicles. The campaign mode standed
is a story where you are in a high tech freighter ship that crash lands on a
distant planet. Your crew back home can come as far as the planet your on but
cannot break through the atmosphere. Your job is to collect all the wreckage
and gain all the parts required for a space ship build to take you out of the
atmosphere to meet them.

There were a couple really heavy salvages to gather up, this one is high in the
floating islands and is the cockpit fo the space ship.

Just tried using my twitter api key for the first time in quite awhile. Apps now need to be tied to projects in order to work. It looks like projects are where pricing comes into play. Thankfully they still give a free tier for doing small time things for myself. You can really see the effect that llms have on these things though as it is 5x more expensive to read posts than to make posts currently. Data is the new gold for these kind of companies.

Wild that the podman-compose github readme calls out k3s as an alternative.

compose definitely has its place, especially for local development on a developers machine, its so much easier to stand up and get things like hot reload up and running smooth.
