@standaloneSA One of my favorites. It’s always fun to see the Moscone the way it was in the 90’s.

@aaronbuley First time I saw it was on IMAX. It was so amazing that I went back a few more times to see it.

Interstellar on IMAX was INSANE! 🤩 Go see it.

Now available: "How to sort anything with Python" with @reuvenmlerner youtu.be/s5i7Gn9JF0U A wonderfully informative show about Python's sorted function, with great resources in the description!

@vmiss33 I use the Paperfeel screen cover with the Apple Pencil and it is fantastic.

Does anyone know how to make writing on an iPad feel more like writing on paper? Some sort of screen cover? Apple Pencil tip?

Anyone can write complex code, but it takes decades of working on your craft to reach a point where you start writing simple code. Simple code looks effortless, almost obvious. Simple code reads like a novel. Writing simple code is hard. Very hard.

Pretty cool that the keynote for HPE Discover is at the Sphere. #HPEDiscover

Now at the MN(NUG)

@MicrosoftLearn Hardware fundamentals.

What’s that one invaluable skill you believe every tech newbie should learn? 🤓

Isovalent Enterprise for Cilium 1.15 is out now 🐝 The most interesting feature for me is eBPF-based IP Multicast 🛜 Catch that and all the features in the release blog isovalent.com/blog/post/isov…

Working in the Kubernetes lab these days and every time I hear Longhorn I think of the old Windows build name.

There's still a lot of confusion about what Kubernetes actually is. Let's debunk down some of it 👇 ✅ Kubernetes is NOT an Operating System. An OS consists of a kernel, shell, and other properties that make it possible to run binaries/code on top of. Kubernetes is a code base. It runs on top of an OS much like application binaries do. ✅ Kubernetes is NOT a programming language. Kubernetes is not a "language" that you write. Yes, it uses YAML to create Manifests, but it's not a language itself. In fact, it's written in a programming language (Go). ✅ Kubernetes does NOT run applications. Kubernetes orchestrates. It does not run. That's why you need a Container Runtime Interface (CRI) to run containers. Without a CRI, containers can not run. Same thing as managing/running VMs on Kubernetes. It cannot run VMs without the proper implementation (for example, KubeVirt). Kubernetes does one thing - it schedules. It's a manager that says "go run this", but it technically does not "run it" itself. If that were the case, we wouldn't need Interfaces to run on top of it. #kubernetes #devops #platformengineering

Yah! Google Drive now has dark mode! So much easier on the eyes!
