We run Harbor and mirror every base image using its Proxy Cache feature, it's quite nice.
We've had this setup for years now and while it works fine, Harbor has some rough edges.
I came here to mention that any non-trivial company depending on Docker images should look into a local proxy cache. It’s too much infra for a solo developer / tiny organization, but is a good hedge against DockerHub, GitHub repo, etc downtime and can run faster (less ingress transfer) if located in the same region as the rest of your infra.
Love this. Great UI and straight to the point. Thank you for sharing.
One thing I'm curious about, is there a way to add a bookmark from a browser on iPhone ? When I'm browsing I often want to save an article in my reading list, right now I'm using Notion with the Share feature. Curious if you had the same need.
This is a cool idea. I also like the website, very clean looking, congrats.
I do have some questions: can the owner of a server split it any way they want ? For example if I have a 64 GB server with 16 cores (something OVH provides IIRC) can I split it into 32 2GB/0.5CPU VM ? (assuming firecracker can handle fractions of a CPU, I don’t know).
This could make for some really cheap VM compared to even OVH’s offering.
For that matter do you only support certain types of server or can the owner choose any server they want from Hetzner or OVH ?
So it was just a weekend of coding so far, lots more to do. Right now I have everything hard coded to just split into half based on my example server of 64, 4, 400. If you look at the script:
You can see lots of hard coded stuff just to get it to work at Hetzner on rockylinux9. I think I can make the script a lot more customizable in the UI and let you do all sort of fancy splits! Firecracker does support fractional CPU allocation through CPU shares and quota settings. When you configure a Firecracker microVM, you can specify:
CPU shares (relative weight)
CPU quota (maximum usage in microseconds per period)
CPU period (measurement period in microseconds)
As long as the server has rockylinux9 I think it should work anywhere!
The wording « We help you setup Firecracker VMs » made me think it was a SaaS at first but maybe I was mistaken. Is the idea that a community should host its own instance of shellmates ?
Yes. I have maintained my ledger with beancount for 5/6 years now. I don’t automate downloading from my bank, it’s not worth the hassle especially now that every login requires 2FA with my phone.
But I did write an importer for the csv files my bank provides and with smart_importer I don’t even have to categorize the statements anymore (although there are mistakes sometimes).
I don’t gather metrics though , I use fava to have a visual view of my books.
I usually spend half an hour per month maintaining the ledger .
Red Hat's gambit has always been to hire engineers to do good work on Linux broadly, in many areas. As opposed to just dropping crates full of money at random on projects
Of course they still get tarred and feathered with the "Red Hat wants to control Linux!" brush because they...contribute the bulk of development to projects like GNOME
I've nothing against red hat and i love that an organization is doing work in the free software space. But it's a choice as an engineer if you want to devote your loss of salary to do honest work.
I do open source in my free time because my family can't sustain itself otherwise. Kudos to all the devs out there working on open software.
The UI looks nice but it doesn't look like there's CarPlay support unfortunately.
I don't use my car that often but when I do I want to be able to access my music library. Right now I'm stuck with Plex and Prism on iOS because other solutions are not good in that regard as far as I've seen in my testing.
Hardware wise I bought a TerraMaster F4-423 used last year for about 300€. It's a great device.
Software wise, I use Fedora Server, although if I had to reinstall now I would use AlmaLinux because I don't need the new stuff coming with Fedora Server on my NAS.
