Chat, the word of the day is linearizability.

I'm reading about linearizability and time skew.

Pretty sure I took a wrong turn to find myself here but not sure if it happened in the past or in the future.

When did I get this nerdy 💀

Nix, OS, Configuration Language, Package Manager.

It took 6 separate months long tries to finally become successful with Kubernetes.

Nix was the same, 6 months long tries and my brain is finally locking in.

Konductor runs on MacOS and Linux natively or choose between container and VM isolation.

Interestingly, if the Dells paid their employees a living wage it would brighten significantly more childrens futures than this monopoly money game.

Their full time employees have impoverished children.

I've deployed ceph on openstack, vanilla kubernetes, and openshift before but I've never actually deployed it from scratch with the dashboard or any rados gateway features enabled.

I'm literally giddy right now.

if you like cable porn, the network cabling in the Azure Fairwater data centres is *chef's kiss*

the things that look like hoses at a gas station bring the closed loop direct water cooling to the GPUs. some of the chips have these *etched channels* for cooling hotspots with microfluidics

AI is forcing datacenter design evolution.

Including grid scale GPU throttling, vertical DC scaling, closed loop liquid cooling, overcoming evaporative and air cooling density limits.

100x compute demand does magical things to efficiency innovation.

Here be dragons, and positive change too.

Okay, back to Kalilix but I've moved her from the laptop to the local cloud. Back to porting Kali linux to a Nix ecosystem flake approach.
