AWS IAM uses ABAC for attributes instead of roles.
“Core dump” comes from an early (now obsolete) tech for RAM called magnetic core memory. Mem, registers, state. Can dump running processes with gdb instead of crashes with kernel.core_pattern, of course.
IoT, schemas for various smart devices beyond phones/computers. Will add some automation to my motorized shades.
AWS DevOps Guru does anomaly detection (among other things like alert calibration). Will compare to Watchdog.
Before tying to the nomenclature of a specific cloud provider, distinguish compute with IaaS / CaaS / FaaS.
E.g EC2 / ECS / Lambda.
Behind the scenes, Lambda uses EC2.
You can have ECS orchestrate your containers on EC2 if you need full control of your nodes, or Fargate for serverless if you don’t need full node customization (just cpu/mem, and scalable).
There’s also EKS, if you want standard Kubernetes instead of ECS.
Workflow management is not the exact same as serverless tasking, but there’s a managed Airflow as well (MWAA).
Installed vscode and wsl2 (just “wsl.exe –install” in admin cmd, but have to enable virtualization in bios first, then “wsl –install -d Ubuntu). 20.04.03 LTS. Apt update and upgrade. Configured dev setup on my custom tower.
Remember “code .” from wsl to open vscode (on the windows host) at that location (on the wsl2 dist).
Added “cd ~” to .bashrc, the default path when wsl opens is windows’ %USERPROFILE%.
etcd.
Installed 3.4.16.
Played with etcdctl, ran some comparisons to prep for local k8s cluster.
Standard leader/follower voting in replication. And election.
Watch function. This is what K8s uses for declaration. Compares Config with State.
AWS Redshift to coalesce your data lake, warehouse, and DBs.
Upgraded php from 7.2 to 7.4 and installed imagick (among other extensions) on this wp site. Enabled browser console on the digitalocean droplet.
Subscribed to a few sites on feedly (web and mobile).
Checked the RSS feed for Mostly Software (bmahlstedt.com) and got it back up.
Plants need Carbon/Hydrogen/Oxygen (air provides) and Nitrogen/Phosphorous/Potassium (nutrients provide in hydroponic systems). The other ~10 elements have small requirements and are supplied by the bit of soil.
Snaked the clogged shower with a drum auger.
Garbage disposal.
Taking out the previous sink flange nut was the most difficult part.
I expect it was the original from the post-war building, at least 5 decades.
Spray-bottle with vinegar for a couple hours to soak and break down minerals+rust.
Clamp on nut, vice on actual sink drain pipe. No budge.
Hacksaw to the nut. Too close to the sink to get the diagonal needed.
Drilled vertically from the bottom. Finally broke through, a nearly-separated axial split.
Installed new mount assembly, rubber gasket on top and fiber on bottom.
Installed garbage disposal and aligned.
Cut the PVC to meet the p-trap. Installed everything.
Turned in on. No leaks, mains worked, James Bond switch worked.
BUT during the install, the adapter from the p-trap to the wall become loose at the wall side, slipping off to reveal a huge corroded hole in the wall pipe.
Could patch, could putty, could replace. Mostly tired. Calling a plumber tomorrow to perform the final fix.
Didn’t have safety goggles, had to wear a motorcycle helmet with a clear visor
COBRA: 60 day enrollment period to elect from start of month after termination -> 45 day initial grace period to pay -> claims can be processed. Pay is retro to beginning of enrollment period.
COVID: Both periods extended to 1yr (or until 60 days after the formal declaration of nation emergency’s end).
