>you just gave every namespace a vector instance that was responsible for that namespace and pods within.
Vector is a daemonset, because it needs to tail the log files on each node. A single vector per namespace might not reside on the nodes that each pod is on.
I think DaemonSet is to reduce network load so Vector is not pulling logs files over the network.
We run Vector as Daemonset as well but we don't have a ton of namespaces. Render sounds like they have a ton of namespaces running maybe one or two pods since their customers are much smaller. This is probably much more niche setup then many users of Kubernetes.
It's funny, (well, not funny) because the social issues are the ones where the toothpaste doesn't go back in the bottle. Progress over the long run only goes in the right direction, there's no path to undoing broad acceptance of homosexuality just like we'll never go back to forbidding interracial marriage or women voting.
So the top 1% will benefit economically from the right being in power, but the rest will spend the rest of their lives mad about whatever the current social change is, regardless of who's in power.
> Progress over the long run only goes in the right direction, there's no path to undoing broad acceptance of homosexuality just like we'll never go back to forbidding interracial marriage or women voting.
This is remarkably naive. I wish you were right, but this sentiment isn't optimism; it's complacency.
Progress seems to only go in the right direction on social issues, because people are very good at developing reasons why the social views they happen to hold are the objectively correct ones. As any advocate will talk your ears off about, open borders used to be the consensus position, until 150 years of immigration restrictions convinced people that it's not realistic to just let anyone move wherever they'd like.
> Progress over the long run only goes in the right direction, there's no path to undoing broad acceptance of homosexuality just like we'll never go back to forbidding interracial marriage or women voting.
This is 100% false and naive. History is profoundly reversible. There is no such thing as guaranteed progress.
So-called "acceptance" of homosexuality is a very recent phenomenon but in no way mainstream. Even in the liberal progressive Bay Area you can get gay bashed quite easily (including in the Castro!).
Voting rights for women? Basically just turned 100 years old in the United States and already in the process of getting rolled back via the SAVE act.
Don't assume that any of the liberal trends we've seen in the last 150 years are here to stay. America is an interesting historical exception and anomaly -- by no means how humanity has done business for the majority of its existence.
The ambiguity of such questions drove me up the wall as a child.
My mother has a story about how I would ask about future events as "the day after the day after the day after the day after the day after today", which in my mind was much clearer than "in X days" why it wasn't clear how rounding occurred.
Clearly, this set me up for a career involving off-by-one errors.
Taking out a loan is okay, in the short term, if you have a plan to pay back your loan using income that you plan to obtain in the future but do not have available right now. THe US national debt has grown so large that the interest payments alone are like 20% of the federal budget, and that doesn't even touch the principal. It has reached pyramid scheme levels of borrowing, and no pyrmaid scheme can last forever. One day, lenders will lose confidence in their ability to get their money back and everything will collpase all at once.
In order to prevent that, the budget must be cut. People must be fired. Promising projects must be discontinued. The question is where to make the cuts and how, because cuts in the wrong places in the wrong way will end up making the problem worse. For me, working in healthcare/science/research, I see the cuts to the NIH spending as a bad cut, because it sacrifices a lot of future revenue from scientific R&D. Same with cutting USAID and losing a ton of soft power that could be used to persuade developing countries to let in American companies. Or firing, say, IRS employees, since they're the ones who actually bring in the revenue. So there are good cuts and there are bad cuts, but the point is that eventually cuts must be made.
Well, I must admit that is true, but I guess that 20% of the annual budget going toward interest feels likean impossibly large fraction to overcome. But yes, theoretically, if GDP grew by 300% in the next year, the debt would shrink proportionately, and I would feel much better about not needing to make any cuts. I suppose my concern is that with the nature of the business cycle, we will run into a recession sooner or later, and when that happens, if GDP and tax revenues both go down for a sustained period, then I would worry that lenders would become hesitant to provide additional funding. But I suppose that would be a complicated situation with many other factors, so maybe I am worrying too much.
The debt is being paid off when it’s due, every time, as it always has been. If we want to lower the total debt, cutting spending is not the only option. Money that the government spends increases economic activity and in some cases more than pays for itself in returned revenue. Raising taxes that have been lowered or eliminated since the last time we had a surplus (at the end of Bill Clinton’s presidency) is step one in getting things under control.
The government's debt is not the same type of thing as household debt. Can you elaborate on how you think they are the same? Do you believe there are not other factors besides just credits being less than debits?
Is this an interesting comment to make? Yeah... the tax payers foot the bill because like we elect the representatives to maintain the government.
> Someone in Montana should not have to pay to rebuild homes in California.
Is this a joke? Should I, as a Californian, also be able to say "oh, my tax money? You damn well not send it to Montana to help subside program XYZ that doesn't help me."
The optics of very rich people building under (or impossible to) insured homes in a area where they will inevitably be destroyed by a fire then expecting the taxpayer to bail them out when it happens are terrible. There's no argument you can make where people will want to do that
It's always struck me that these are two wildly different concerns though.
Use metrics & SLOs to help diagnose the health of your systems. Derive those directly from logs/traces, keep a sample of the raw data, and now you can point any alert to the sampled data to help go about understanding a client-facing issue.
But, for auditing of a particular transaction, you don't need full indexing of the events? You need a transactional journal for every account/user, likely with a well-defined schema to describe successful changes and failed attempts. Perhaps these come from the same stream of data as the observability tooling, but I can only imagine it must be a much smaller subset of the 100PB that you can avoid doing full inverse indexes on this, because your search pattern is simply answering "what happened to this transaction?"
The reality is that when their service delays something they owe us tens to hundreds of thousands of dollars. This is the tool they’re using but if they can’t even get a precise notion of when a specific request arrived at their gateway they’re in trouble.
As someone who, in a past life, also sold apps on the Mac App Store (with some success), I could never escape the sense of insecurity, whether it be Apple "breaking" (or fixing?) things every WWDC, constant pursuit of the next idea, or potential competition. Not to mention, the fact that sometimes reviews seemed oddly personal and the occasional rude customer support emails could ruin a day. (This all probably says more about my own mental psyche than anything and I'm glad some people thrive in it.)
In the end, I felt more comfortable doing the 9-5 engineering job, but it was definitely worth it and really taught me to be self-sufficient and exploratory in software development.
Yeah, nothing can protect your heart from the inevitable 1-star review that makes you want to punch that human through your screen.
Thankfully, my best selling apps are published on my website, where I don’t have reviews. I have a contact form which can lead to the same disappointing messages, but at least they’re not public and don’t stay there forever.
But yes I understand you, I had many periods when I contemplated going back to a “normal” job.
So don't be surprised when sites like this pull no revenue and end up shutting down because people really, really do not care about some nobody's political hot takes when they want to read about video games.
Are you trying to well-poison "caring" about the scope and quality of entertainment media? What's your aim here? Am I supposed to pretend that total randoms flooding entertainment media with their off-topic pretentious garbage is normal and alright?
These days, nothing. I avoid entertainment media. But I remember the days when PCGamer used to write about how amazing Carmack was at pumping out engine tech, how Guild Wars was going to revolutionize MMO design, how Supreme Commander would have a freaking unit cannon that could fire units tens of kilometers across a map. It's impossible to find that now without having to wade through low-quality sophomoric political treatises and exposes on activist developers making games nobody is going to play.
There's lots of places on the internet for those people too. They are also free to find them and share them! Maybe they'll even been upvoted on HackerNews!
Be careful what you wish for. Sites like these aren't lasting long in an era when people are exhausted of being 24/7 assaulted by the political hot takes of random nobodies.
