I'd like to second this request. All of our Kafka clusters are in MSK with IAM auth. I've been desperately looking for another management tool to replace Conduktor (conduktor.io).
Since everyone is posting their favorite free-tier monitoring products - does anyone have a recommendation for a cloud product that will allow us to create a group of ping monitors and alert only if all monitors in the group are down for N minutes?
I’ll double check when they’re online, but I’m pretty sure BitPing can do stuff like this.
They farm the actual checks out to actual users devices across a whole stack of geographies, you can customise regions, rates, etc.
With icinga2 (or any nagios successor) you could write a custom check command that does a ping check on both IPs (and return an error status only if both are down).
To be completely fair with you, I didn't know this was out there. Then again, I think my solution is more elegant, especially if all the todo's are finished.
I mean, if you don't trust the sources, you can use your own. Or if you don't trust the software, don't use it. It's up to the end user to decide what is in their best interest. I believe the included lists are trustworthy and I use them myself.
my first question too. Steve Black's updateHostesFile.py is extensible and can be automated and is well trusted and gets tested by a large community. I don't want to sound critical but would like to understand the value add in comparison. Both are in python as well so I don't get it
People posts simple projects, learning projects, projects that are inadvertently a dupe of some other project, projects that are deliberately patterned after existing projects, etc, etc, etc all the time.
sure I did but I didn't bother with a "Show HN", also this is well beyond the scope of a Hello World. It just made me wonder if OP hasn't studied what was already out there and if he did why no explanation or credit or mention of Steven's work ...
even if he disagreed with Steven solution and chose to reimplement, it would have been interesting to understand what the motivation was. I'm not saying he shouldn't, but just that it would be nice to know what motivated his design and why he thinks it's better to redo ...
I would suggest making these either a bit clearer or easier to find. For example, on this page the image with the nutritional information is pretty small.
Pictures can be ok but I would really prefer the info in text/chart form
While I too enjoyed this film in my formative days, the book "The Cuckoo's Egg" really blew my mind when I read it back in 2005. If you are a fan of Wargames you would love this book.
Admittedly it's a bit dated now but it holds the same nostalgia that Wargames does.
+1 for the Cuckoo's Egg. It takes place a bit after the war-dialing era of Wargames and is factual rather than fiction but it's a great read and the real deal of network intrusions, hacking, and spies in the 80's (I met Cliff Stoll shortly after the main events of the book and we spent much of the next five years hanging out together after meeting in a phone networking distribution closet at the Harvard Smithsonian Center for Astrophysics, but that's a different story)
