Oct 6, 2021, 11:18:38 PM [original]So you can't, for example, initialise a clock twice, or use a pin configured for input on a function that expects an output (like driving an LED)
Oct 6, 2021, 11:20:05 PM [original]I'm not super experienced with microcontrollers so this is extremely helpful! And it's all compile-time too: most of these types are zero sized so they don't even show up in the compiled binary

Hi @RCornegyJr, I tried to call you but your voicemail boxes are full. I live in Bed Stuy, and I'm demanding you slash $1bn from the NYPD budget _at minimum_. Our police system doesn't work, and defunding the programs that do is utterly asinine. Do not pass De Blasio's Budget!

Jun 7, 2020, 4:17:59 PM [original]When we call for the abolition of police, the knee-jerk reaction is fear. That fear is rooted in extremely racist narratives that white supremacy has built

Jun 7, 2020, 1:23:02 PM [original]We cannot simply reform the police to be less racism, because *their place in society is created by racism and fear*
Jun 7, 2020, 1:23:03 PM [original]By deconstructing this white panic, this fear, it becomes clear that the police aren't needed. They never were.

Nov 19, 2019, 3:28:46 PM [original]we are gonna learn about instrumentation in k8s and I am hype
Nov 19, 2019, 3:28:52 PM [original]k8s components integrate with Prometheus, which can be scraped by prometheus server or a vendor product like stackdriver
Nov 19, 2019, 3:28:53 PM [original]counters and gauges are augmented by their more complicated cousins, summary and histograms. The former is more accurate, but can't be aggregated over time with other metrics.
Nov 19, 2019, 3:28:53 PM [original]We can collect a lot of different metrics out of the box - availability, latency, capacity, errors, etc
Nov 19, 2019, 3:31:46 PM [original]Prometheus's UI is good for prototyping and exploration, but you probably want Grafana for more permanent use.
Nov 19, 2019, 3:31:46 PM [original]a single symptom isn't enough for a diagnosis. Metrics can show you how something is failing, but not necessarily why.
Nov 19, 2019, 3:31:47 PM [original]even if they can't solve the problem, metrics can guide you in the right direction when debugging an issue
Nov 19, 2019, 3:31:47 PM [original]ah, we have a graph-han-na chart 🙄
Nov 19, 2019, 3:31:48 PM [original]metrics are only useful in context. API server uptime is interesting, but is there one API server? many? what's the request pattern like?
Nov 19, 2019, 3:36:40 PM [original]the kubernetes control plane is a lot of components that can't directly talk to each other - they have to be mediated by the apiserver
Nov 19, 2019, 3:36:41 PM [original]the kubelet is responisble for liveness probes. pods can specify an endpoint that the kubelet can probe to make sure a pod is still up. Pods can also specify metrics endpoints (prometheus!) and emit logs.
Nov 19, 2019, 3:36:41 PM [original]the apiserver is a good source of metrics, because unlike most other components, all of the components have to talk to the apiserver. IT exposes /metrics, health endpoints (/healthz, /livez and /readyz as of 1.16)
Nov 19, 2019, 3:36:42 PM [original]audit-logs are ostensibly a security feature, but they're also a great source of queryable structured logs from the apiserver
Nov 19, 2019, 3:36:43 PM [original]etcd is the database that backs the apiserver. so it's another juice metrics target.
Nov 19, 2019, 3:43:43 PM [original]etcd has a /metrics and a /health, but there are also tools like auger and etcdctl
Nov 19, 2019, 3:46:16 PM [original]auger is specifically for kubernetes, so unlike etcdctl it can decode kubernetes protobufs in etcd.
Nov 19, 2019, 3:46:16 PM [original]etcd isn't a kubernetes component, so things like the health endpoint and logs are in different formats.
Nov 19, 2019, 3:46:17 PM [original]time for an example! problem: a node is down. how do we know? you can look for all nodes for whom promothesus scrapes are failing
Nov 19, 2019, 3:46:17 PM [original]but things aren't always so neat in production. a grey failure could just be a very slow, as indicated by a long scrape duration
Nov 19, 2019, 3:46:18 PM [original]this doesn't need any innate knowledge of the node, perfect for black-box debugging!
Nov 19, 2019, 3:52:32 PM [original]another problem: a crash-looping apiserver, detected by either monitoring healthcheck endpoints, or by master kubelet's metrics for liveness or readiness.
Nov 19, 2019, 3:52:32 PM [original]is the process crashing immediately, or is it getting killed by the kubelet (e.g. because the liveness check failed) ?
Nov 19, 2019, 3:52:33 PM [original]healthz?verbose can help us here, if we can get a curl off before a crashloop. in this example, we can see etcd is down. And because it's down, apiserver fails its own healthcheck and crashloops.
Nov 19, 2019, 3:52:33 PM [original]the default storage limit for etcd is 2gb - so etcd_object_count can be a clue to an overwhelmed etcd
Nov 19, 2019, 4:02:17 PM [original]etcd objects aren't all the same size. a watch mechanism means etcd has to store historical versions of an object. So a very frequently updated object can take up a disproportionate amount of space on etcd!
Nov 19, 2019, 4:02:18 PM [original]etcd compacts every 5 minutes, so you can easily go over storage limit sizes. you can use kubectl for this if apiserver is up, but if it's not this is where auger shines!
Nov 19, 2019, 4:02:18 PM [original]probably don't store images in etcd, btw. it's not meant for that
Nov 19, 2019, 4:02:19 PM [original]last example: slow API server! let's take a look at request latency. it turned out these metrics were useless, because the bucket sizes were too coarse.
Nov 19, 2019, 4:02:19 PM [original]bad metrics make it difficult for cluster operators. but updating is hard! Changing metrics could cause false positives or negatives in people's monitoring
Nov 19, 2019, 4:06:29 PM [original]bad metrics can't be disabled, so you need a full upgrade. sig-instrumentation did an overhaul of broken metrics in 1.14.
- labels didn't match
- wrong data types
- units weren't standardized, and many were even outright incorrect!
how do we deprecate bad metrics? sig-instrumentation is going to treat metrics as a proper api. we'll have stability levels for all metrics going forward, so we can mark metrics as deprecated
Nov 19, 2019, 4:06:30 PM [original]what metrics are stable? we need criteria and promotion still. and we need runtime flags for disabling individual metrics
Nov 19, 2019, 4:06:31 PM [original]distributed tracing and structured logs are (hopefully) coming soon too!
