Big Data operator turned founder. Building the 🇨🇭 Swiss alternative to US object storage: S3 on your own infrastructure.

@TigerBeetleDB @georg_kreuzmayr Awesome, might add it into my test suite for ObjectGateway then 🚀

@robwalling Missed it. No issue the book is worth it. Going to order it either way

[Marc Singer @quadrantd]

@robwalling So sad I missed the pre order bonus because I was asleep when the tweet dropped 😓

@Bartonaut55 @ycombinator Testing it now. Congratulations for getting YC backing. Let me know if you want to go for a bear in ZH at some point.

@bb_fresh @chanian I am counting the days until Omega Star finally supports ISO-timestamps, like they said they would.

[Marc Singer @quadrantd]

I regret setting up a Dot while traveling and then returning back to Europe.

[Marc Singer @quadrantd]

@SimonHoiberg Just surprised that this guy is still alive and kicking.

@piyushnp @ayushtweetshere @sprintoHQ @saleshandy do you know how expensive they are? I have no clue yet in what ballpark the Foundation plan would be. Before I book a sales call with them.

[Marc Singer @quadrantd]

I’ve seen agents respond to “permission denied” by looking for more powerful credentials. That’s not what I want for customers that operate object storage:

@SimonHoiberg @IngoKpp You might want to reconsider Ubuntu on servers at some point. The recent CVE for networking in the kernel is still not fixed. It seems not be exploited yet but it’s much easier to exploit than initially anticipated (Redhat updated the CVSS to 9.8). I recommend Debian.

[Marc Singer @quadrantd]

@SimonHoiberg Congratulations. I might go for this as well as I am already living in Switzerland but it's not the best environment for startups.
Pondering if I should do an AG / GmbH here or try in Singapore.

[Marc Singer @quadrantd]

@theo Thanks for the video Theo. I switched my complete workflow from Herdr to T3Code and I have to say I am genuinely impressed.

[Marc Singer @quadrantd]

@SimonHoiberg What a surprise. I had subscribed to you on youtube long ago and watched you while building my own (S3) startup in Switzerland.
Might register the business in Singapore when I get international traction.
Thanks for the inspiration.

[Marc Singer @quadrantd]

Your pipeline is green.
Your tests are well written and stable.
Your friends and family understand what you do. They appreciate your humerus work stories.
That joke you told in the meeting was funny.
DevOps is a meaningful term.
You were born to deploy kubernetes clusters. You are happy

[Marc Singer @quadrantd]

@lizwessel What if the tool that rotates the keys gets compromised?

[Marc Singer @quadrantd]

@alive_nishant @gregoryjhickman Based. I run all my websites on S3 as static pages. No security updates needed.

[Marc Singer @quadrantd]

Host it in the cloud, they said. It'll be secure, they said.

[Marc Singer @quadrantd]

Most outages I saw as an SRE started with a manual step at 3 a.m.

So I built a Kubernetes operator for our S3 Gateway so your admins hopefully can sleep better:

@thsottiaux The codex CLI (update) just broke my workflow. I use Astra and a separate daybreak subagent to review every change that another agent did. Since updating codex, daybreak needs to be turned on; but Astra does not support it and the subagent can not use it without the /daybreak mode enabled.
Chicken / egg problem with the flag.

@HakDimoz Don't you need to have some trust built with the community if you want a personal brand? How would you do that without showing your work?
