Ellie's Notes

Been a minute since I wrote one of these!

Since running agents in a bunch of workspaces, I've been running out of storage on my mac FAR more often.

A bunch of people read my post about using jj yesterday!

Over the past few weeks, I have been using jj!

I was recently setting up a new k3s cluster for running Atuin.

Ellie's 1290 Superduke R Evo I moved to the US and bought a superduke yay Here I am making some notes.

Today I found myself needing to configure ingress-nginx.

I've been working on a desktop app with Tauri, and had issues for a while with the "draggable" prop on some elements.

It's pretty common that I'll accidentally use the wrong email for a commit.

First, install git-filter-repo.

I'm currently using uiwjs/react-codemirror for a project, and needed to add a custom binding to cmd+enter The documentation didn't quite show what I needed, but with the following you can bind custom keys import React from 'react'; import CodeMirror from…

A super short note, but I forget this all the time.

I'm currently building a calendar data display for Atuin, and wanted to ensure that the week started with the correct day.

Recently I've been playing around with FPV drones - I now have a Pavo25 V2.

I've been working across a few branches lately, and couldn't remember the name of a git branch containing some work I'd done.

Earlier today I was trying to figure out why I was getting the occasional latency spike.

I have very mixed opinions on LLMs, as they stand.

I've been using Vim/NeoVim for the past decade, at least.

I've been working on some more frontend code recently, and got quite tired of my import paths looking like this ../..

Recently I've had the need to ignore a folder while searching with ripgrep.

My zsh has been a little slow to start for a while.

I was playing with sqlite-zstd, and upon trying to load the extension... .load libsqlite_zstd Error: unknown command or invalid arguments: "load".

Atuin supercharges your productivity by enabling you to rapidly retrieve any command you've ran, at any time, from anywhere.

I'm the administrator of https://bikers.social, a mastodon instance for bikers 🏍️ Postgres is the most important part of an instance backup.

I upgraded my mac to macOS 14, Sonoma earlier today.

Over the past year or so, I've been scaling back how much time and energy I put into social media.

I've recently started using haproxy after a lifetime of nginx, and I actually really like it!

Following on with my postgres on zfs setup, I needed to configure the auth so that my PostgreSQL replica could securely connect to the primary.

I'm setting up new postgres servers for Atuin!

I setup a HA k3s cluster for Atuin recently!

I'm writing this one after a longggg day of riding, including heading home in the dark with a tinted visor 😬 Probably going to keep it brief.

Carrying on from yesterday, we woke up early and got ready to ride the stretch up to Weaverville.

I've been in California for a few days now, staying with a friend in San Francisco.

Observability is important!

An update I liked this so much that I actually replaced my whole blog with it!

recordsize=128 not that bad, actually preferring a scan to index for some reason. random_page_cost = 1 sorted that worked after running analyze and a couple of queries

I was setting up Alertmanager and needed to manually trigger an alert to make sure it works Something like this will do it, depending on your port: curl -H 'Content-Type: application/json' -d '[{"labels":{"alertname":"test-alert"}}]' http://alertmanager:9…

I spent a while operating PostgreSQL running on an EC2 instance.

With larger clusters, you might find that scrapes begin to take time - kube state metrics might be exposing millions of samples, depending on how many nodes/pods/etc you have!

My Rust reference page Projects Atuin Cargo Run just integration tests cargo test --test '*' Run just unit tests cargo test --lib --bins Code git sha as string in code Useful for distribution, to report what revision was built.

If you've ever tried to resize a kubernetes statefulset PVC for a database deployment (or similar), you have probably seen this error Internal server error StatefulSet.apps "es-cluster" is invalid: spec: Forbidden: updates to statefulset > spec for fields…

My Python reference page I don't spend as much time building actual large projects in Python any more (though I was paid to write Python for a few years in my early career).

Some postgres snippets!

Just a reference page for all the linux things I forget Filesystem types fd00 - Linux RAID Creating software RAID device mdadm --create --verbose /dev/md<NUMBER> --level=<RAID LEVEL> --raid-devices=<DEVICES> /dev/one /dev/two ...

Kube state metrics exposes kubernetes metrics in a way that they can be scraped by prometheus.

jq Just a collection of jq things I've found useful Arrays Get an array element by index echo '[1, 2, 3, 4, 5]' | jq '.[0]' # => 1 Get the length of an array echo '[1, 2, 3, 4, 5]' | jq 'length' # => 5

Helmfile Helm is totally adequate (I'm uncomfortable calling it good) for deploying an app, and potentially a small number of dependencies.

Remove untracked files git clean -fdx -f force -d include directories -x also remove ignored files Disable push to master/main It's pretty easy to accidentally push to main/master (if for some reason you cannot enable branch protection), so putting [branc…

I recently setup a new encrypted dataset.

I've had my 701 supermoto since June 2022, and absolutely love it.
