33 year old nerd from the Netherlands. I love barefoot running, camping and I live a plant-based lifestyle focused on health. I do a lot of yoga and meditation and am a practicing buddhist. I work as an Azure cloud native engineer and I'm in love with my work.
I'm one of those lucky people who managed to turn their hobby into their career.

Transition to manifest V3 is now starting and Ublock Origin might not be supported in Chrome in the future. Because of my transition from a mouse to a pen tablet, I’ve already been experimenting with Qutebrowser for the past couple of weeks and I really enjoy it. It feels much closer to vim because I can run commands like this: “:set darkmode” which feels familiar and I can search my history very easily.

No More GitHub - My Updated Backup Setup For My Obsidian Zettelkasten

No More GitHub - My Updated Backup Setup For My Obsidian Zettelkasten | Mischa van den Burg

I relied on iCloud sync for my Obsidian backup for many years. However, my vault has grown significantly and has reached nearly 3500 notes. This leads to problems when opening the vault on other iOs devices, because iCloud sync removes files from devices when they are not used. When the vault is reopened, it takes over 5 minutes to sync everything. Having this 5 minute waiting time every time I open up my vault on my iPad was a problem which I needed to address.

@secana I think it has more relevance for my work if I stick to Dev containers. Nix is probably way to complicated to introduce to developers, and devcontainers keep things simple

Installing packages in Devcontainers with Nix | Mischa van den Burg

I’ve been obsessed with Devcontainers and Devpods recently, and I’m learning a lot about portable dev environments. This is truly the next level of config management and the future of dev environments in my opinion. I relied on brew as my package manager, however, I ran into problems when I wanted to run my Linux dev containers on my M2 Silicon Mac. Linux brew is not supported on ARM architecture.

Alleviating Confusion About The To Field In Network Policies | Mischa van den Burg

When solving a killercoda challenge I ran into some confusion. Even though my solution worked, there was a difference which I wanted to get clear on. I wrote this: apiVersion: networking.k8s.io/v1 kind: NetworkPolicy metadata: name: np namespace: space1 spec: podSelector: {} policyTypes: - Egress egress: - to: - namespaceSelector: matchLabels: kubernetes.io/metadata.name: space2 - to: ports: - protocol: TCP port: 53 - protocol: UDP port: 53 But the provided course solution was this:

Blueprint Lifestyle Costs 2024 in NL

With my recent commitment to the Blueprint stack of 400 euros a month, I calculated my full nutrition and supplementation costs this morning. Buying almost everything at Albert Heijn and everything Bio/Organic, super veggie + dinner is about 10 euros a day. I buy organic black lentils in bulk at de Notenkoerier. The Blueprint stack includes one meal, so these two meals suffice as costs.

My First Week with the Oura Ring

I have now completed my first week of sleep tracking with the Oura ring. Although it is quite a big purchase to make, I haven't had any regrets at all. It has been an amazing experience to get proper insights into my sleep data. I have been quite intentional about sleep for a couple of years already, but there is always room for improvement.
