Let's prioritize installing solar panels on structures like car parks and building rooftops instead of agricultural land, as this approach embodies sustainable development.

2006. When I was 13, 14, or 15, the IT guy at my dad's clinic gave me three of these Dell Optiplex machines (likely model GX100 SFF). I used them for home theater PCs, routers, and servers for the better part of a decade. If you have the chance, give an aspiring IT kid a stack of old computers.

Kubernetes The Hard Way has been updated. I've also resolved most of the open issues and pull requests as I set the stage to add support for both ARM64 and AMD64, making the project compatible with both CPU architectures while continuing to be cloud provider agnostic. github.com/kelseyhighto...
Kubernetes The Hard Way guides you through bootstrapping a basic Kubernetes cluster with all control plane components running on a single node, and two worker nodes, which is enough to learn the core concepts.

"Masculine Energy"
Panel 1: Mark Zuckerberg stands on the stage at a Meta all-hands meeting, wearing a little chain and a shirt that says "Cool Dude." "I think our company could use more Masculine Energy," he says into a mic. In the crowd, an employee raises their hand. "Excuse me, Mr. Zuckerberg," the person asks. Panel 2: The person stands up, asking, "By "Masculine Energy," do you mean a mature definition where men in power use their relative strength to protect and uplift those less privileged?" Panel 3: The person continues, "…or a more childish definition where men in power are free to be aggressive and harm others without being held accountable?" Panel 4: Zuck stands silent for a beat. Panel 5: "You're all fired," he says.
