  • Yeah Proxmox leaves a lot to be desired in terms of metrics. However, metrics are supported out of the box. Bad news, you probably won’t get what you want within proxmox. Good news, you have another project you get to undertake! Hooray!

    Like I said, Proxmox supports metrics out of the box. If you go Cluster -> Metric Server you’ll be able to see that you can add a metric server. The first iteration I did with proxmox I added an InfluxDB container which then proxmox can talk to (yes they can be on the same host), and then proxmox will start pumping metrics into InfluxDB. (It uses Telegraf under the hood). Then, you can also run Grafana, add your InfluxDB as a data source, and then you have a sweet metrics dashboard. There are a lot of pre-built dashboards already made that look great, and you can customize from there.

    You can also use Graphite, I personally haven’t used it, but I also dropped Influx over time too. These things evolve in that sort of way. That’s how I’d get set up and started though.





  • Honestly a good article, and a perfect example of performative security. Security was ever present, hassled people, wore tactical vests and made a big show - but still did nothing of actual value

    Twitch backpedaled and said they’ll add moar security, but won’t do anything to actually protect creators like grant them their own security guard.

    To me, it’s obvious. Guy didn’t have a knife, didn’t threatened her, it’s some lonely creepy dude who doesn’t respect her and very sick in the head. They don’t need another row of metal detectors, they needed someone managing the line and access to her so he couldn’t just walk up to her, and if he did still make it that close then an immediate boot out of the premises with charges for assault filed with a permanent from all future events.

    Instead they just… Let him walk around and be chill, and sounds like he was only banned well after the huge backlash.



  • Did a takehome for a company recently that did it well. They required that I make a docker file (you could give them one if you wanted) where when ran it would run tests. It was a neat use of docker IMO, it standardized that builds were just “build the docker file” and running was just “run the dockerfile”. You would t have to deal with tar or anything then.

    Thousand ways to skin a cat there












  • They said they were open to it but they had zero priority of doing it themselves, and essentially “submit a PR if you want it”. A shame really, their interface is great, and such an easy setup. If they implemented either xmpp or matrix I would switch immediately. All of my friends want a discord clone that “just” works, but no one wants to go to this server for this group and then login to that server for that group. They want a single-pane interface like what discord offers.

    Shortsighted to not implement that IMO.
