Are you not supposed to stream until you run out of regular ideas? I don't know, but I'm going to give streaming a try because I want to try something longer than by attempts to stay under 15 minutes with my other ideas. My first attempt is going to be …
read moreDay six and more
I'm thinking about if I should do a dedicated blog post to compliment my various 100DaysOfKubernetes videos. I am committed to doing some documentation, so maybe doing it here on the blog makes sense? I don't know, something to think about. I'm up to Day Six, and I actually have …
read moreFiguring out production
So, I'm figuring out how to produce content, if a bit slowly and maybe not as optimally as I'd like. I've got the capture bit down. I have to polish my flow and visuals still, but I'm getting there. There are bits to figure out, including how and where to …

[To the tune from Evita, Don't cry for me, Argentina]
So, when the Pi first started to be in tight supply, I thought being a bit patient would help. Then, Jeff Geerling posted that the shortage was dire, and had a link to a website with a Raspberry Pi tracker …
read moreGetting into a flow
I think I'm into a flow with content creation. It's definately different than teaching, where you get live feedback when facing a class. But teaching is one and done, where video recordings allow you to see, critique and want to re-do things. Don't get me wrong, reflection is important and …

I've actually recorded and started uploading 5 days of Kubernetes content now, and I have some feedback. First, process stuff. I've got the basic pipeline worked out -- outline then research, sketches or graphics then prep and practice and then use OBS to capture, then handbrake to clean and title then …
read moreLearning a bit more about docker
I've been using Docker a lot more recently, in order to figure out exactly what is going on. Using some dockerfiles as templates, I've actually built a few Docker images. Early on in this process I knew less about what I was doing, and had to figure out how to …
read moreTrying a single node
I've already foreshadowed a bit of this post in my previous, when I mentioned trouble when not starting a second node. So, I tried to only start one node, and while the k8s side is fine with running on a single node, the pods that were on the not-restarted worker …
read moreDiscovering some package quirks
So, earlier I mentioned that I'd run into some backup weirdness. Well, I think that Kubernetes doesn't deal with resources vapourizing between starts. It seems the control bits don't like when a node, in this case the worker one, isn't restarted. It tried to kill the pods, but since the …
read moreUpdating the github packages
After poking and getting a Kubernetes cluster working a few times, I deceided to fitz with getting version numbers up to date. The working rig is 1.18.x, and the current version is something circa 1.23 or so. I first try 1.20, as that was where I …
