How Useful Is Social Media Networking for Job Searches

Looking for a job these days is no easy task, which is why many job seekers are using social media networking to help them find jobs that they want to be based on their education, interests, and which companies looking to hire.

According to recent findings by the Bureau of Labor Statistics, 70% of all jobs are found through social media with 92% of companies using social media sometime during the hiring process to find eligible candidates that fit in with their company mission and goals, or to weed out candidates whose personal views or actions will reflect badly on the company should they be hired.

How Various Social Media Sites Can Help Job Seekers

There are a variety of social media sites that can help job seekers step up in the career of their choice. Here is a look at how some of the various social media sites can help job seekers.

LinkedIn: Recruiters use LinkedIn to look for candidates to fill positions in their company. If you don’t have a LinkedIn account, you won’t come up in searches. In addition, LinkedIn allows job seekers an opportunity to research companies, recruiters, and interviewers before they send in their Continue reading

IDG Contributor Network: IoT-enabled shipping containers sail the high seas improving global supply chains.

Global trade flows through shipping containers. Manufacturers depend on them to get raw materials in time and to ship finished products to market. IoT is being applied to monitor containers and make sure that their contents aren’t damaged or stolen.Inter-modal containers Containers have standardized dimensions, which lets transporters easily ship, stack and store them. There are over twenty million containers in motion right now. Containers are pre-filled which reduces the time that trucks need to get loaded. Their standard size allows them to be easily transferred between trucks, planes, ships and trains.Global supply chains based on containers enable manufacturers to minimize their costs with ‘just-in-time’ inventory. This makes it important to track containers’ location and the condition of their contents.To read this article in full, please click here

Reconstructing the Join Command for Kubeadm

If you’ve used kubeadm to bootstrap a Kubernetes cluster, you probably know that at the end of the kubeadm init command to bootstrap the first node in the cluster, kubeadm prints out a bunch of information: how to copy over the admin Kubeconfig file, and how to join both control plane nodes and worker nodes to the cluster you just created. But what if you didn’t write these values down after the first kubeadm init command? How does one go about reconstructing the proper kubeadm join command?

Fortunately, the values needed for a kubeadm join command are relatively easy to find or recreate. First, let’s look at the values that are needed.

Here’s the skeleton of a kubeadm join command for a control plane node:

kubeadm join <endpoint-ip-or-dns>:<port> \
--token <valid-bootstrap-token> \
--discovery-token-ca-cert-hash <ca-cert-sha256-hash> \
--control-plane \
--certificate-key <certificate-key>

And here’s the skeleton of a kubeadm join command for a worker node:

kubeadm join <endpoint-ip-or-dns>:<port> \
--token <valid-bootstrap-token> \
--discovery-token-ca-cert-hash <ca-cert-sha256-hash> \

As you can see, the information needed for the worker node is a subset of the information needed for a control plane node.

Here’s how to find or recreate all the various pieces of information you need:

• The Continue reading

Cloudflare Global Network Expands to 193 Cities

Cloudflare’s global network currently spans 193 cities across 90+ countries. With over 20 million Internet properties on our network, we increase the security, performance, and reliability of large portions of the Internet every time we add a location.

Expanding Network to New Cities

So far in 2019, we’ve added a score of new locations: Amman, Antananarivo*, Arica*, Asunción, Bengaluru, Buffalo, Casablanca, Córdoba*, Cork, Curitiba, Dakar*, Dar es Salaam, Fortaleza, Göteborg, Guatemala City, Hyderabad, Kigali, Kolkata, Male*, Maputo, Nagpur, Neuquén*, Nicosia, Nouméa, Ottawa, Port-au-Prince, Porto Alegre, Querétaro, Ramallah, and Thessaloniki.

Our Humble Beginnings

When Cloudflare launched in 2010, we focused on putting servers at the Internet’s crossroads: large data centers with key connections, like the Amsterdam Internet Exchange and Equinix Ashburn. This not only provided the most value to the most people at once but was also easier to manage by keeping our servers in the same buildings as all the local ISPs, server providers, and other people they needed to talk to streamline our services.

This is a great approach for bootstrapping a global network, but we’re obsessed with speed in general. There are over five hundred cities in the world with over one million inhabitants, but only a handful Continue reading

AnsibleFest Atlanta – Here We Come!

AnsibleFest Atlanta is September 24th - 26th at the Hilton Atlanta, a few short blocks from Centennial Olympic Park. This year is going to be bigger and better than ever. As AnsibleFest continues to grow, so does its offerings. We are excited to offer more breakout sessions, more hands-on workshops, and more Ask an Expert sessions. This year we have expanded our AnsibleFest programming to offer 10 different tracks. We are also introducing the Open Lounge this year, which is a place to network, relax and recharge. It provides a great opportunity to meet and connect with passionate Ansible users, developers, and industry partners. 

The AnsibleFest Agenda is live. Thank you to everyone who answered the call for submission. It was a challenge to narrow down the sessions from the record-setting  submissions we received. We love our community, customers, partners, and appreciate everyone who contributed. 

For those who are not familiar with AnsibleFest, or have not attended the event before, below are a few  highlights of AnsibleFest that you won’t want to miss.

General Sessions

We have some amazing general sessions planned this year. The opening keynote at AnsibleFest will feature talks from Red Hat Ansible Automation Continue reading

Developing Docker-Powered Applications on Windows with WSL 2

This is a guest post from Docker Captain Antonis Kalipetis, a Senior Software Engineer at e-food — the leading online food delivery service in Greece. He is a Python lover and developer and helps teams embrace containers and improve their development workflow. He loves automating stuff and sharing knowledge around all things containers, DevOps and developer workflows. You can follow him on Twitter @akalipetis. WSL 2 (or Windows Subsystem for Linux version 2) is Microsoft’s second take on shipping a Linux Kernel with Windows. The first version was awesome as it translated Linux system calls to the equivalent Windows NT call in real time. The second version includes a full fledged virtual machine.  It was only natural that Docker would embrace this change and ship a Docker Desktop for Windows version that runs on WSL 2 (WSL 1 had issues running the Docker daemon). This is still a Technical Preview, but after using it for a couple of days, I’ve completely switched my local development to take advantage of it and I’m pretty happy with it. In this blog, I’ll show you an example of how to develop Docker-powered applications using the Docker Desktop WSL 2 Tech Preview.

Preserving Native Cultures: Vote Now for the Internet Society’s Panel for SXSW 2020

What benefits can Internet connectivity bring to Tribal and Indigenous communities – especially when it comes to language and culture preservation? That’s the topic of our panel proposal for South by Southwest (SXSW) 2020: “How Internet Access Can Preserve Native Cultures.”

And we’re excited to announce that you can now vote for it!

SXSW, is an annual conference held in Austin, Texas, USA. The conference’s many events include a music festival, networking opportunities, and panels that focus on technology, governance, film, culture, and music.

Reinventing Your Own STP Wheel…

One of my readers sent me a link to an interesting L2-over-IP "design". Someone tried to connect two data centers with redundant etherip links using home-brewed redundancy mechanism and (surprise, surprise) managed to bring both of them down. The obvious fix: patch the etherip device driver.

I don't know enough about OpenBSD to figure out whether (A) it doesn't have STP at all, (B) STP doesn't work over EtherIP, (C) host routing based on ARP entries would be too much of a hassle, (D) some people don't understand the networking fundamentals, (E) everything looks like a nail once you found a hammer, or (F) all of the above. Insightful comments would be highly appreciated.
