I'm working on an alternative solution to Ansible and Puppet, trying to mix the best of both world: The pull-based aspect of Puppet, by having an agent running on nodes, and the simplicity of Ansible, by writing playbooks and roles.

It's called Peekl, and is available on Github. Tho it's still in what I'd called "alpha". Lot of new features to come!

Hi! I found that it was the most easy language to get started with. I looked at other language such as `HCL` (the Terraform language) but I thought that it would be too complex to learn, and to get started with. I really want this project to be easy to work with.

What language did you have in mind that you'd rather use compared to YAML ?

YAML is actually tricky, especially with multiline strings and space handling.

I do find HCL to be simpler. But for things like Ansible, I'd rather have a real programming language, like PyInfra does (which I never got to try yet unfortunately).

Yeah at beginning I really wanted to use HCL.. But their parser and implementing it was actually a little bit more difficult that doing just raw YAML parsing.

It also doesn't help that I'm not that familiar with the language.

OVHcloud unveils its Quantum Platform: the first European solution for accessing quantum computers in the cloud.

Available now, it will provide access to at least eight quantum computers, including Pasqal's Orion Beta

Doesn't Docker run as `root` by default, and alter the permission of your folder by taking ownership and making it as `root:root` ?

Just tested it and apparently it's not the case, neat!

(French citizen speaking)

I think that y'all are a bit unfair in the way you're talking about H-1Bs.

I know that in the US recruitment in tech is at a all time low, and that you would most likely want the few jobs that actually exist to go towards US Citizens. I get this feeling.

However, thinking that you're jobless because of H-1B is kind of ridiculous. You're straight up lying to yourselves at this point.

I get that some companies might abuse the system, especially tech consulting firms that are looking for people that will work for way cheaper, since they would do absolutely everything to evade their third world country.

But please, at a time where companies are insulting everyone of us by saying that they can simply replace us with clankers, don't use H-1Bs as a punching ball. The people in charge, who are just seeking higher margins, are the one that makes it hard for you guys to find a job, and making you leave hell with layoffs.

Be better.

Be better? Be less condescending.

Pas mal non ? C'est français.

Neat way to use Tailscale !

I have a similar set-up, without authentication however, relying on Nebula! https://github.com/slackhq/nebula

It's always funny when the people telling you to absolutely do something or your world will end... are the same one that have the exact cure to the problem. A problem that they mostly created.

I'm all in for AI to take over my job. And then other peoples jobs. But then what ? Once the world is made mostly of unemployed people, what will happen ? Sure you can have food prepared by clankers, delivered by clankers, taxis driven by clankers and so far... But with which consumers ? Will clankers pay money to other clankers ? Surely not.

And I'm not even that much of an anti-AI guy, I'm just wondering where the hell are we going with that ? Sure for rich people it's an absolute delight to see that they can now produce code without having to pay people, increase margins like never before ... But then what ?

> Sure for rich people it's an absolute delight to see that they can now produce code without having to pay people, increase margins like never before ... But then what ?

But if consumer spending decreases, the companies rich people own also would face the heat, right? Especially if they are not computing adjacent. Am I missing anything?

No, you're not.

If consumer spending decreases, everything goes down. For example if you take ads shown on blog post, news media.. What happens tomorrow once human traffic decrease, and it's mostly crawlers.. How can those website still keep up ? Crawlers don't click ads.

Either rich people are just trying to surf the wave of AI and we've got to endure this for a few years. Or if it's not a wave, it could deeply change our society, beyond everything we've seen.

This kind of threat that we would suffer without the US help is so infuriating.

When Russia started the war with Ukraine, they we're saying that it would be a blitzkrieg. It wasn't. And we're talking about a country which doesn't have any nuclear weapons, who's fighting with shitty FPV drones.

And you're here, telling us that Russia would even dare to set a single foot in any of the European country ? While they're in reach of French nuclear arsenal ? Without the ability to even know where "Le Terrible" is on earth ?

Come on kid, be serious for a minute.

For having tried to install a Linux distribution on other switches with Broadcom ASIC I can tell you that having some kinds of drivers, free to use by anyone, without the need to sign an NDA, is incredible !

Thank you Mellanox. Really.
