htmx ~ Locality of Behaviour (LoB)

htmx.org [1]
Interesting principle here. What a great example, If I’m looking at the second jQuery example, I have to dig into dev tools or make some assumtions that this team uses jQuery, and selects by id, therefore I can grep for $("#d1").
Consider two different implementations of an AJAX request in HTML [2], the first in htmx [3]:
<button hx-get="/clicked">Click Me</button>
> and the second in jQuery:
``` js
$("#d1").on("click", function(){
$.ajax({
/* AJAX options... */
});
});
<button id="d1">Click Me</button>

I was looking to add running kubernetes jobs to a python cli I am creating, and I found this solution, mostly thanks to ollama run mistral:7b-instruct-q4_K_M and my loose understanding of what the yaml syntax is supposed to look like for a kubernetes job. This will let me create a job in the cluster, choose the image that runs, the command that is called, and how long until the job expires and is cleaned up. While the job still exists I can go in and look at the logs, but once its ttl has expired they are gone.
from kubernetes import client, config
# Load the default kubeconfig
config.load_kube_config()
# Define the API client for batch jobs
api_instance = client.BatchV1Api()
# Create a new job object
job = client.V1Job(
api_version="batch/v1",
kind="Job",
metadata=client.V1ObjectMeta(name="myjob"),
spec=client.V1JobSpec(
ttl_seconds_after_finished=100,
template=client.V1PodTemplateSpec(
metadata=client.V1ObjectMeta(labels={"app": "myjob"}),
spec=client.V1PodSpec(
containers=[
client.V1Container(
name="myjobcontainer",
image="busybox",
command=["ls", "/"],

restart_policy="Never",

How to kill process based on the port number in Linux
Learn to kill a process by port in Linux using fuser, lsof, and ss commands. Essential for system admins managing network processes efficiently.
LinuxConfig · linuxconfig.org [1]
I’ve often struggled to find and kill a process using a certain port on archlinux. Mainly becuase most guides use netstat rather than ss.
Here is how I just killed the process using port 5000 using fuser.
sudo fuser -k 5000/tcp
You can also get information about the process by running lsof
❯ lsof -i :5000
COMMAND PID USER FD TYPE DEVICE SIZE/OFF NODE NAME

I was curious to see what was going on inside of my minio object storage. Great technique here by Frank to create an inspector pod, then you can do as you wish with the data.
I created the manifest as pvc-inspector.yml
apiVersion: v1
kind: Pod
metadata:
name: pvc-inspector
spec:
containers:
- image: busybox
name: pvc-inspector
command: ["tail"]
args: ["-f", "/dev/null"]
volumeMounts:
- mountPath: /pvc
name: pvc-mount
volumes:
- name: pvc-mount
persistentVolumeClaim:
claimName: pvc-name
Then used it like this.
# create pvc-inspector pod
kubectl apply -f pvc-inspector.yml
# exec into inspector
kubectl exec -it pvc-inspector -- sh
# explore data
ls /pvc
# cleanup
kubectl delete -f pvc-inspector.yml

Can I access k3s using just kubectl (no sudo and no k3s command)
Can I access k3s using just kubectl (no sudo and no k3s command)
Reddit · reddit.com [1]
Right after installing k3s you are going to need to use sudo to use any kubectl command. The reason for this is that the default config is owned by root. To get around this you will need to make your own config and set the KUBECONFIG environment variable
To do this I used sudo one last time to copy the k3s.yaml file into my own directory and take ownership of it.
sudo cp /etc/rancher/k3s/k3s.yaml /home/waylon/.config/kube
sudo chown -R waylon:waylon ~/.config/kube
export KUBECONFIG=~/.config/kube/k3s.yaml

Quick-Start Guide | K3s
This guide will help you quickly launch a cluster with default options. Make sure your nodes meet the requirements before proceeding.
docs.k3s.io [1]
I recently spun up k3s in my homelab [2]. I’m trying to offload some work off of my free tier fly.io app in order to keep it free tier without crashing.
# install and start k3s
curl -sfL https://get.k3s.io | sh -
# check to see if your nodes are started
sudo kubectl get nodes
My main hiccup so far was the machine I am running on runs zfs on root, and it would not start the master node. Rather than figuring out how to make zfs play nice I just pointed k3s to a drive that is not zfs.
# manuallly
sudo k3s server -d /mnt/vault/.rancher/k3s
# without editing systemd service
sudo ln -s /mnt/vault/.rancher/k3s /var/lib/rancher/k3s

Litestar: Effortlessly Build Performant APIs
We all know about Flask and Django. And of course FastAPI made a huge splash when it came on the scene a few years ago. But new web frameworks are being created all the time. And they have these ea...
talkpython.fm [1]
Litestar is an interesting api framework similar to fastpi, that I am interested to check out to see if it fits into some project scope. It sounds like it comes with a lot more batteries included for things like auth, but does not have hard opinions like django. At this point I’m not jumping off of fastapi [2], but its something I want to try.
