  • ONE PIECE: Season 2 | Official Teaser | Netflix: It looks to be surprisingly close to the manga, even more so than the first season.
  • Choosing Secrets Manager for Homelab: Very short blog on secret manager. To be fair, the choice present are good.
  • Apple picks Google’s Gemini AI for its big Siri upgrade: This has shades of Apple picking Google Maps when the iPhone first came out.
  • Ansible Collection - devsec.hardening: I used it quite a bit and it works out well for hardening the machines.
  • Manage clusters and applications at scale with Argo CD Agent on Red Hat OpenShift GitOps: Once again, I need to get around to deploying ArgoCD soon.
  • No fire sale for firewalls as memory shortages could push prices higher: Very bad. I wouldn't be surprised if networking equipment in general gets more expensive.
  • K8s Deployments Vs StatefulSets Vs DaemonSets Explained: Short primer on differences. Personally, I view all of them as deployments, except that stateful sets has the same name every time and daemon sets run on every node.
  • Migrating from Amazon Linux 2 to Bottlerocket AMI in EKS Nodes: If you still use Amazon Linux 2 at this point - why?
  • Even Linus Torvalds is trying his hand at vibe coding (but just a little): I would be curious what the inventor of Linux and GIT will come up next.
  • Idiomatic Rust Snippets: Lets you get to learning rust without the pain points.
  • Use Cloud Controller Manager to integrate Kubernetes with OpenStack: OpenStack is still alive, I see.
