denvrede··on Tanka: Our way of deploying to Kubernetes
Am I missing something here or is there no way do delete with tk apply deployed manifests?

Also what about state changes? I.e calculate the diff between your local definition and Cluster state and act appropriately (delete, apply, change)

denvrede··on Ask HN: Germany vs. Canada for Tech Jobs?
That's one thing that surprised me when I got serveral offers from headhunters for Berlin located jobs. The highest paying one was 68k (at max).

Meanwhile I work in Essen with a lot of cheap housing in and around the city for 75k. And I'm just your everyday non-senior "DevOps Engineer".

denvrede··on Too Many Video Streaming Choices May Drive Users Back To Piracy
Thanks for the reminder to cancel the Sky Ticket subscription. I feel you. The most frustrating thing are their SmartTV and AppleTV apps. If you watched an episode or a movie you can't start it again because it will start, jump to the end and will either recommend to start the next episode (in the case of a show) or do nothing (in case of a movie).

You have to "reset" the content in you iOS app and can then watch it on your other devices. Sky is cancer.

This on HN? Really?
denvrede··on Ask HN: Who wants to be hired? (July 2019)
je.suis.pl/cv.pdf the link is broken.
denvrede··on It’s Game Time: Oculus Quest and Rift S Now Available
You really have to try Rec Room once its released for the Quest. For me, thats the killer app.
denvrede··on Netflix is not the future of TV
Could you define "around here"?

I'm from Germany and for premium satellite content (Sky) you pay 25-30 euros upwards for the movie and entertainment (shows and documentaries) packages.

denvrede··on France to ban electric scooters from pavements in September
1. And this should be what? An argument to against speed limits in general? 2. You read that this was a case for speed limit IN cities? No one said you should drive 20km/h on highways or country roads.

Just park your car at a P&R just outside the city and use a scooter / public transportation for the last mile.

denvrede··on How the Varroa Mite’s True Diet Was Discovered
One of the main reason that the hygienic behaviour from apis melifera is far from perfect is that they didn't have the need to.

There are so many ways they are treated for varroa all year round (except high season) with "chemicals". They were simply not forced to develop a distinct hygienic behaviour. But every treatment damages the hive and puts the bees on risk.

Thats why, in the last years, the selected breeding "movement" started growing.

denvrede··on Kubernetes for personal projects? No thanks
Why exactly do you think someone needs luck with that? I'm honestly curious.
denvrede··on Ask HN: Help (no life thread)
When you find a solution to your work related problems, please let me know. I have the same problem (am also from germany). I just want to "automate all the things", I don't care what it is: software deployment, infrastructure, proprietary business processes. I always get sick when i have to do things more than one time if it doesn't need to be "that" way. But from my experience one of the three things can / will happen:

1. you work in a big company the processes are so static and haven't been touched for decades. Every change is seen as a risk and therefore dismissed.

2. you work in a SME that actually is in need of someone that can automate different processes but the time will come when everything is done and you only get to work from time to time and get bored.

3. you work in a small company / startup and your skills are needed but it lacks of work life balance, job stability and sometimes a competitive salary.

As of now I'm (again) looking for a new job but have little to no hope that I'll find exactly what I'm looking for.

denvrede··on Ask HN: Which self-hosted solutions are you using?
Shortlist:

- Apache Tika + Tesseract for OCR of mails - i hate physical paper

- SOLR to index the output of the above mentioned data

- Imaginary (https://github.com/h2non/imaginary) for image pre-processing of the scanned mails / documents. Its much more lightweight than imagemagick.

- Openhab2 for home-automation

denvrede··on You know how HTTP GET requests are meant to be idempotent?
I really (seriously) don’t get why you did’t use POST in the first place? If it’s all for the “easy hit of the url in a browser” there are addons for that? Care to explain? One can’t be that lazy :)
