i've been mucking about with calico on my #homelab #kubernetes cluster, and it took me far far too long to visit the whisker console: https://docs.tigera.io/calico/latest/observability/view-flow-logs

this is unbelievably helpful for debugging firewall rules

i'm very tempted to switch to calico on my non-k8s systems now (e.g. Linux gaming PC), so i can be back to only having 1 firewall abstraction in my brain

Automated changelog generation

When publishing a package for use by programmers, automated changelog generation is very beneficial. In this blog post, I explore how to do it in a simple way that works everywhere.

First post on my personal blog!

A few of our users occasionally spin up pods that do a lot of number crunching. The front end is a web app that queries the pod and waits for a response.

Some of these queries exceed the default 30s timeout for the pod ingress. So, I added an annotation to the pod ingress to increase the timeout to 60s. Users still report occasional timeouts.

I asked how long they need the timeout to be. They requested 1 hour.

This seems excessive. My gut feeling is this will cause problems. However, I don't know enough about ingress timeouts to know what will break. So, what is the worst case scenario of 3-10 pods having 1 hour ingress timeouts?

I recently completed a project that involved a lot of deep diving into some newer k8s-related tools. I'd like to document my findings so that they may help others, but I don't know where to put them. Years ago, Medium seemed like an option, but it sucks now with all the monetization. Substack supports nazis, so not there either. Where do I post?

Direct link to a text article about the situation

Yesterday we had the first Headlamp release after we joined the @kubernetes SIG UI!
It's also probably the version with the most changes ever, so it's impossible to summarize all the great things in one message here! Instead, check it all out at:
https://github.com/kubernetes-sigs/headlamp/releases/tag/v0.31.0

Older article (2019), but it introduced me to some things I didn't know. Like I didn't know that cockpit could manage Kubernetes.
