akselson Show HN: Trello-Like Application with WebComponents

Hi HN,

Context: This was the subject of an assignment for a company (tech test).

I created a really (lightweight) version of trello-like board with only web components. It was a fun project to do. I use ReactJS in my day-to-day work and it was really interesting to come back to basics and see that you could build applications from scratch without any framework. Loading speed is amazing, it's like we are forgetting that we can do simple applications without bloated frameworks. In addition, it felt good writing some vanilla js.

Beware, WebComponents are not supported in every browser

Would be grateful for your feedback.

Many thanks.

(Of course this project has nothing to do with the real Trello, it's only a POC.)

akselson Show HN: Weight Lifting Algorithm Based on 5M Workouts

my 2c: The default value for "weight" in onboarding seems to be 120kg. I'm pretty sure you can set it to 75kg[1] to avoid a lot of scrolling in the onboarding.

However good job !

akselson Kubernetes Is a Surprisingly Affordable Platform for Personal Projects

From my experience it's quite expensive, at least in GKE. As Kubernetes takes a lot of cpu & memory by itself. I run a pool of one node n1-highcpu-2 (2 vCPUs, 1.8 GB memory) and it costs me about 72 euros per month.

kube-system is taking about 730 mCPU of the node's 2000 mCPU.

The issue is that the kube-system is deployed on each node of the pool so (tell me if I misunderstood/misconfigured something). If you have a pool of 3 nodes which have 1 vCPU each, with kube-system taking approximately 700 mCPU on each you have only 300 * 3 = 900 mCPU allocatable.

If you have any tips on how I could reduce the costs of my personal projects I'm listening !

akselson Show HN: Google Hash Code 2018 Simulator / Result Viewer

Some context on the competition:

We are given a list of pre-booked rides in a city and a fleet of self-driving vehicles. The objective of the competition is to assign the rides to vehicles, so that riders get to their destinations on time.

I updated the README.md with some illustrations to help you understand this project.

akselson Show HN: Google Hash Code 2018 Simulator / Result Viewer

Hi HN,

I'd like to present you one of the project I developed recently.

After the Google Hash Code 2018 Competition, I thought I could create a "result viewer", I'm not really sure how to name it, to train my skills in Go development and because it seemed funny to do it this way.

The scores are the same as the Judge System from Google and the simulation is displayed using a graphic interface which can be disabled.

Everything, including the graphic interface has been developed in Go.

Just wanted to share it here to get some feedback !
