Instead of predicting what will (not) happen these were some of the challenges in the past:

* advise the teams during the introduction of resource requests & limits

* supporting the decision of resizing the Kubernetes clusters on the requirements and factoring in operational cost

* integrating Azure KeyVault & EventHub into our backend services

* introduce Ansible to provision virtual machines

* introduce PostgreSQL monitoring and support a resizing decision

* analyze and research an issue with a Docker update

Our working language is German. All levels of proficiency are welcome!

ArloL commented on Memory leaks are crippling my M1 MacBook Pro   macworld.com/article/5497... · Posted by u/miles

I just ordered the M1 Max with 64GB RAM because I'm constantly getting the "Your system has run out of application memory." popup while working on Lunar[1] in Xcode.

Every time this happens, Xcode uses about 4GB of RAM (probably because of the monolithic UI storyboard of Lunar) but it should still leave enough memory for my other non-memory hungry apps.

But then I open Activity Monitor and I see WindowServer using ~80GB of memory [2]

The only remedy is either `killall WindowServer` or a full reboot.

I've been using an M1 MacBook Pro and Monterey since the first developer beta but this only became an issue in the last 2 months or so.

Being serious: Do you have Chrome installed? I have been following this story for a while and nothing seems to be coming out of it:

Are there any good articles on writing helpful bug reports? Whenever I submit a bug I try to give as much detail and be as specific as possible but I always imagine some dev somewhere reading it rolling their eyes at the unnecessary paragraphs I’ve submitted.

Do not run it if you use ssh-agent!

Remember agent will forward all of your ssh keys to the untrusted server.

Does this not require ForwardAgent to be enabled?

Pinterest is one of the worst sites on the internet and I will cherish the day it vanishes from Google image search results which will hopefully kill it off, leaving space for a superior competitor (one that doesn't hijack 50% of search results that are hidden behind a forced login). The same applies to Quora.

ArloL commented on Dockerfile Best Practices   github.com/hexops/dockerf... · Posted by u/sidcool
turminal · 5 years ago
That's a very important difference, because isolation and the associated increase in overall security of the system is a core purpose of any virtualization technology. Docker promises a lot here, but a lot of those promises remain unfulfilled in reality. Yes, containers are inherently easier to break out of than VMs, but even with that caveat there is room for improvement in container security. That alone is enough reasons for me not to be a big fan of docker in production.

But there are other vectors. With a VM you get a whole linux distribution, which of course increases the attack surface, but at the same time you also get much better isolation and that distribution's team of maintainers looking over your software, providing security patches, advisories, a simple way to update the system and so on. On the other hand there exist 'docker best practices' tutorials (not the posted one) that recommend not updating your base system at all in the name of reproducibility. Docker's solution to update management is manual image tagging and manual updates, possibly with help of external tooling. I don't think that's a good solution for that problem.

Imo the overall best solution is to run stuff in VMs and pick a lightweight distro for that.

ArloL · 5 years ago
Just to be sure, isn't a container a whole linux distribution as well depending on your base image? With the same distribution team, etc.?

That not updating part is of course just plain and simply bad advice.

What solutions for update management would you recommend in the VM space?
