Jetstack's cert-manager is one of the most important parts of my k8s cluster and I've waited entirely too long to update it. The path from v0.4.0 to v0.16.0 is grueling but pretty easy thanks to well-built software.

An exporation in defining a safer type for dealing with prices using basic Postgres constructs, and using those types happily with an ORM

Running containers for your dependencies during CI E2E tests in the background, without services

Announcing rbb (redis bootleg backup), a tool for backup up redis clusters with only client access. A tool for otherwise reasonable redis administrators backed into a corner and looking to jackhammer their way out.

A messy, real-life example E2E test case for an API I'm working on

Traefik is my cluster ingress controller, and ahead of the addition of UDP support (which I'm pretty excited about) I'm upgrading Traefik from v1 to v2

Running mailtrain on kubernetes

I finally got around to completing & releasing exceptionfree-readfile, a library for reading files that doesn't log any exceptions when you run a program with +RTS -xc -RTS, unlike base's readfile

Who would win? 1 arguably competent developer or one expired encryption boi?

It took way more trial and error than I expected to set up E2E testing for a python-based project on CircleCI -- my loss (of time) is your gain.

I recently went through the trouble of setting up a (very unnecessary) instance of Zulip on my tiny k8s cluster for some people I co-work with. Setting up Zulip was more trouble, and sharing is caring.

If you're into Mithril, have I got the new shiny, experimental, component library for you!

I recently got a System76 Oryx Pro, and despite one initial hardware issue I'm very happy with it. Installing Arch was a breeze, System76's open source drivers were easy to install. Excited to start my long journey with my new daily driver.

Recently while working on a Java project in Emacs, I made some changes to the usual setup

Some notes on my tinfoil-y thoughts about the CNCF

I upgraded my tiny cluster from kubernetes v1.13.0 to 1.15.0, and only briefly visited a single pitfall.
