BiB091: Rancher Open Source K8s Management Releases 2.4

Rancher has announced version 2.4, which might seem like...meh...no big deal. Companies publish incremental software releases all the time. Well, Rancher 2.4 is interesting because it indicates where Kubernetes is heading. That is...Kubernetes everywhere, running production workloads. In your data center. At the edge. In the public cloud.

Terraform an HA-VPN between GCP and Cisco

Doing Infrastucture-as-Code (IaC) with Ansible has given me a headache – so I’ve recently been playing around with Terraform as an alternative to Ansible for certain tasks that require Cloud IaaS interactions. The goal of this blog post is to build an HA-VPN solution between GCP and an on-premises Cisco IOS-XE device (CSR) using Terraform. […]

Trailblazing a Development Environment for Workers

Trailblazing a Development Environment for Workers
Trailblazing a Development Environment for Workers

When I arrived at Cloudflare for an internship in the summer of 2018, I was taken on a tour, introduced to my mentor who took me out for coffee (shoutout to Preston), and given a quick whiteboard overview of how Cloudflare works. Each of the interns would work on a small project of their own and they’d try to finish them by the end of the summer. The description of the project I was given on my very first day read something along the lines of “implementing signed exchanges in a Cloudflare Worker to fix the AMP URL attribution problem,” which was a lot to take in at once. I asked so many questions those first couple of weeks. What are signed exchanges? Can I put these stickers on my laptop? What’s a Cloudflare Worker? Is there a limit to how much Topo Chico I can take from the fridge? What’s the AMP URL attribution problem? Where’s the bathroom?

I got the answers to all of those questions (and more!) and eventually landed a full-time job at Cloudflare. Here’s the story of my internship and working on the Workers Developer Experience team at Cloudflare.

Free ipSpace.net Content

Most of us are in some sort of lockdown (or quarantine or shelter-in-place or whatever it’s called) at the moment. Some have their hands full balancing work and homeschooling their kids (hang in there!), others are getting bored and looking for networking-related content (or you wouldn’t be reading this blog).

If you’re in the latter category you might want to browse some of the free ipSpace.net content: almost 3500 blog posts, dozens of articles, over a hundred podcast episodes, over 20 free webinars, and another 30+ webinars with sample videos that you can access with free subscription.

Need more? Standard subscription includes 260 hours of video content and if you go for Expert subscription and select the network automation course as part of the subscription, you’ll get another 60 hours of content plus hands-on exercises, support, access to Slack team… hopefully enough to last you way past the peak of the current pandemic.

Yaesu FT3D vs Kenwood D74

I’ve had a Kenwood TH-D74 for almost two years now, and was curious to get a sense of what the competition is like. Seems like everyone’s recommending the Yaesu FT3D. So I got one, and I think I’ve played around with it enough now to have an informed opinion.

Summarizing the feeling of them, while I have my complaints about the usability of the D74, the FT3D is like a time machine back to the 90s in how well the interface is though through.

I’m sneaking in some mentions of the AnyTone 878UV too. But I’ve not used it enough to have a solid opinion yet.

Programming

With the FT3D upgrading the firmware is a two step process, where you have to flip a little hidden switch first to “up”, to upgrade one firmware, then to “down”, to upgrade the other. And then flip it back to “middle” for normal mode.

The FT3D programming software costs $25 and comes with a special cable, but the software also seems downloadable from their website. The USB cable seems to require a special driver. I guess that’s what you’re paying for. At least you can download the software and put the data on Continue reading
