Rebuilding My Homelab with Compose, Ruby, IPv6, and No Kubernetes

Hey, author here. This is a piece about moving away from kubernetes and toward something that I can actually maintain as a solo person who has a life outside of k9s. It's not really intended to be "anti-kubernetes", more like "kubernetes really is too hard for my purposes".

IMO the best change that I've made has been to give deterministic IPv6 addresses to every container and then using those for ingress.

I'm curious to hear where y'all think the line is between docker compose with Ruby glue and "Dear friend, you have built a Kubernetes".

Looking for a place where I can have real impact both on the product as well as helping to level up more junior team members in this brave new AI driven world. I've been at or near fintechs and regtechs for the past 7 of my almost 20 years of experience and would love to continue that or try something new.

Mold growth is a moisture problem which can either be because of condensation or because of leaks. I agree with the contractors, properly framing out and insulating the interior would probably help a lot with condensation on the inside of the aluminum, as would double pane windows. Ventilation is also important for stopping mold growth.

"Density of cliches" is a great way of putting it. It's exhausting to write that way and unpleasant to read back in the edit process which is why that kind of thing doesn't happen (often) in human-led pieces. LLMs don't get exhausted.

I think this depends on the construction of the rest of the house. A typical stack built house in the US will have extensive insulation in the exterior walls, but it's paired with a number of different layers intended to expel moisture.

As a retrofit without those things I guess I can see it being problematic.

I've thought about doing this a couple times but haven't followed through yet. What makes yours different/unique compared to, say, pi?

Nice! I built something along these lines but far more janky. My setup is a clamp-mount mic boom arm and an L-shaped bracket, along with a mic-to-1/4" adapter. Boom clamps to the monitor arm, reaches over the monitor, then the short end of the L is attached to the arm via the adapter. My webcam has a 1/4" screw built in, so that attaches to the long side of the L.

I've been using it for years, works great to get the camera down for calls and back up out of the way when not needed. Only problem is that it's not super stable so I have a small spirit level insert glued to the top of the camera to make adjustments easier.

Edit: somewhat recent photo of my setup, including the webcam: https://imgur.com/a/ip3ff4F

Same. The prompt was essentially, every checkbox in this PLAN.md should be task in SQLite.

Excellent. Tiny affordances like this should be more commonplace, IMO.

I think this probably also helps when truly clueless users drop the link into an agent directly, because then the agent will relay the message to the user.

It's not a new usage by any means. Like almost all slang it originated with Black drag and LGBT+ subcultures and only semi-recently (within the last 10-15 years maybe?) broke containment in the US.

As a verb, "to clock" means something like "to notice" or maybe in this case "to highlight, with specificity".

I feel like I'm way more cynical than most people around here about LLMs but if we accept the parent comment's framing, why can't we just use an LLM to write a throw-away converter to whatever new format is necessary? Yes of course it'll probably be lossy occasionally but the question will be, is that ok for the user doing the conversion?

Sweet, free upgrades!

Edit to be slightly less obtuse: surely you're not implying that a common carrier be allowed to discriminate based on facts about a passenger's body without making reasonable accommodations. Surely you're not implying that obese people not be allowed to fly at all. Surely you're not suggesting that fat people should just remove themselves from society so you don't have to deal with them.

Therefore, obese people should get free upgrades to economy plus or better. Thanks for the idea!

Our house came with one and we upgraded the unit a few years ago. It's very efficient in terms of units of energy consumed, but in my area of the world gas is significantly cheaper than electricity so it ends up being expensive to run.

That said, we will install solar at some point and then it'll be "free" HVAC.

> they end up coming up with something equivalent to IPv6

Not just that. Almost every single thing people think up that's "better" is something that was considered and rejected by the IPv6 design process, almost always for well-considered reasons.

A reasonably fair comparison. The ISPs had a much stronger incentive to finish the migration, though, because the 3g spectrum could just get turned around and used for 4g after rollout. IPv6 doesn't really have that strong of an incentive structure now that CGNAT is a well-developed technology.

This proposal is absolutely wild.

Would you be willing to quantify what "mild" means to you, maybe in terms of a USDA zone? There are maps for both US and Europe:
