Never block, never stream.

Claude just doesn't even bother regenerating a patch when it needs one, it just codes in patch–as if it was purposely built as a language for mutating text by humans, and not as a file delta interchange format.

I was recently needing to access GCP resources from a github actions workflow in order to run an end-to-end test of gcp-kms-issuer.

One of my favorite things in the world is a thought provoking book, and there's not much I enjoy doing more on a lazy Saturday than wandering the aisles of books at the second-hand stores.

In a recent post I opined on a past gitops failure and contemplated how showing diffs of the changes you're going to make to the running repo is one check that can help mitigate certain types of mistakes.

Like I mentioned in my previous LLM+k8s post, I've been curious about how we can bring the power of LLMs to bear in generating k8s resources from their knowledge given some natural language instruction.

OK, not the whole org but all of its permissions, which will usually end up being almost the same.

The newtech, selfhosted, cloud, IaaS provider fly.io released a blog post last month detailing the escapade.

I wrote a large diatribe attempting to extol the virtues of kubernetes in an internal document, trying to sell it off as the perfect abstraction layer.

I've spent the last year working at my current gig with a talented team to make a huge move from onprem kvm virtual machines and puppet, to containers and kubernetes deployed to an onprem cloud.
