• Tuesday

    • Looked up softball/dodgeball/kickball leagues in nyc. Sandlot sports has a bunch. I’ll sign up soon (back is still healing). Looks like they have open gym on mondays in nolita: https://sandlotsportsnyc.com/pickup-games#mondays
    • You can fill acrylic aquarium scrapes just like buffing any other plastic. Rub it out with sandpaper then polish.
    • Host analysis.
      • Obviously I can do everything at home on my desktop.
      • Stay on Digital Ocean.
        • Blog will remain there, but sbsc is the one in question. Currently $6/mo for a 1GB mem 1cpu 25GB disk ubuntu 18 droplet. If I go to 2GB mem (which is the limiting factor rn) it’s $12/mo.
        • Managed k8s is $12/mo.
      • AWS.
        • Free tier provides t2.micro (1cpu 1GiB mem) for a year for free and then a little under $4/mo after that (for a 3yr reserved instance).
        • EKS is a bit more expensive. A little under $75/mo for each cluster, and then you have to pay per usage as well.
      • Conclusion:
        • If continuing to host in the cloud, move from DO to EC2.
        • If self-hosting, run full k8s locally.
