I don't like civilization scale reliability testing. This is not fun.

Slop velocity has not changed, AI just lowers the cost.

Individuals can produce what previously required one executive with an engineering budget.

I predict dev becomes more architect minded and KPIs shift towards line of code / feature density, and rewrite from scratch refresh rate benchmarks.
We’re having a Cambrian Explosion of code. People are able to create so much more than ever before

I’ve done it myself and see it with the open source I maintain

But I think the software industry is going to suffer
When I just started out developing I remember being so so so full of ideas that I was coding in my head and wished I could have done programming while commuting / on the bus. With eg a phone. But it was impossible, ofc.

Now it’s possible!! A massive change

Konductor is deployed to the T640 PowerEdge today!

A nix flake developer environment that:

1. works on macos / linux (native WSL image soon)
2. also produces a qcow2 image w/ cloudinit
3. includes a devshell to build Konductor in a Konductor VM

And it's deployed on Kubevirt + Rook CEPH 🐶

we found a slight design snag when finally hitting our testing phase, but nothing we can't overcome quickly :)

Chat, the word of the day is linearizability.

I'm reading about linearizability and time skew.

Pretty sure I took a wrong turn to find myself here but not sure if it happened in the past or in the future.

When did I get this nerdy 💀

Nix, OS, Configuration Language, Package Manager.

It took 6 separate months long tries to finally become successful with Kubernetes.

Nix was the same, 6 months long tries and my brain is finally locking in.

Konductor runs on MacOS and Linux natively or choose between container and VM isolation.

Interestingly, if the Dells paid their employees a living wage it would brighten significantly more childrens futures than this monopoly money game.

Their full time employees have impoverished children.

I've deployed ceph on openstack, vanilla kubernetes, and openshift before but I've never actually deployed it from scratch with the dashboard or any rados gateway features enabled.

I'm literally giddy right now.

if you like cable porn, the network cabling in the Azure Fairwater data centres is *chef's kiss*

the things that look like hoses at a gas station bring the closed loop direct water cooling to the GPUs. some of the chips have these *etched channels* for cooling hotspots with microfluidics
