Diun Receive notifications when a Docker image is updated on a Docker registry crazymax.dev [1] Diun, looks like a very interesting tool to monitor for image updates, it does not make any change, it only makes notifications. This feels like an easy start to getting image updates started with low effort, keep git [2] ops, but requires manual updates. I see this as a tool that would be a great start and pair well with automated image updaters to ensure they are working as expected. References: [1]: https://crazymax.dev/diun/ [2]: /glossary/git/

Keel Kubernetes Operator to automate Helm, DaemonSet, StatefulSet & Deployment updates keel.sh [1] Keel looks interesting, I might give it a try as a simple image updater. I’m unsure if it fits my gitops patterns though. I like to keep everything defined in git [2], I don’t like drift outside of that so Keel might not be the thing I want.

YouTube Enjoy the videos and music you love, upload original content, and share it all with friends, family, and the world on YouTube. youtube.com [1] Damn he makes this easy.

I’ve only done very specific backend endpoints, built pages up from partials, made endpoints for partials. keeping this one in my back pocket. I’m just kind of amazed that he could do this all in html [2] without touching the backend or js, typically things like this require one or the other. Yes js is running, but no other js library I’m aware of lets you do this. References: [1]: https://www.youtube.com/watch [2]: /html/

- the racked up 4 framework mainboards sound wild. connected with usb4 and 5gig ethernet. they said they can run big models quantized down from 600Gb to within the 512GB limit they have. This seems wild to bring this level of capability to such a low price point. It will be really cool to start to see demos come out.

Ergonomic Laptop — Evan and Katelyn Back pain ends here. Evan and Katelyn · evanandkatelyn.com [1] This is such a cool idea, I tend to not use laptops at all because they are so uncomfortable I just wait till I’m back at my desk. This solves two main issues I have with laptops, the posture to use them is shit, the keyboards that come on them is not what I want to use. I’ve solved the latter with my own custom keyboard.
