@crell@phpc.socialSo, um, it looks to me like Dev Containers (https://containers.dev/) are, like, Lando and DDev, but more standard? Am I following that right?
Because I've already got a fairly well tuned straight Docker Compose setup for my dev that seems fine...? Why would I want this?
Or its alternative:
@nelson@tech.lgbtTrying out Jules, a coding agent from Google that is similar to Claude Code. But it's all hosted: you use a web UI to talk to it, it checks out code from GitHub and runs it in containers. And it operates asynchronously, you give it tasks and it comes back 5-15 minutes later with work done. I like it quite a bit, but there's a question whether the Gemini models are as good for coding as Claude.

@jamesthebard@social.linux.pizzaSo, spent most of the day getting Handbrake compiled with the `svt-av1-psyex` and `svt-av1-essential` forks of the SvtAv1 encoder. However, I did win that battle and both are now available in the `sisyphus-client` containers. Definitely a pain in the ass, but it's nice to have options depending on what you want to use. Also updated the documentation to make sure I don't forget which is which.
I still need to implement some pipelines to build these, but holy crap the Handbrak…

@thomastraynor@social.linux.pizzaGetting back into planning a whole week of meals. With having to be at work four days a week I need to plan. Wife is disabled and there is a limit on what she can do.
Tonight, chicken Kiev and spiced potatoes.
Sunday, macaroni casserole. Leftovers I put into containers for frozen lunches.
Monday, roast chicken, turnip, stuffing, mixed vegetables and I will make a pudding.
Tuesday and Wednesday are leftovers.

@fluchtkapsel@nerdculture.deFor a few weeks I had some strange errors with my self-hosted webmail, Snappymail. After working for some time it complained that it couldn't connect to tcp://mydomain.tld:143. My email clients worked, though. The situation got worse a few days ago when I updated the server and rebooted it.
My webmail is hosted in a systemd-nspawn system container. I use such containers for a lot of different services.
For debugging purposes I tried some telnet and openssl s_client stuff toda…
@andres4ny@social.ridetrans.itperformance bicycle: chains are $3 cheaper than amazon.
ebay: the power cable replacement for the one that got shredded is $1 cheaper than amazon.
aliexpress: the plastic containers were a bit harder to find, but multiple dollars cheaper than the ones on amazon (that are probably from the same supplier and had to go through customs last time).

@nobodyinperson@fosstodon.orgAfter a recent *terrible* first attempt at using matrix as communication platform for our rather big measurement campaign in summer, I just tried selfhosting Mattermost, and boy is it a smoother experience. It's as if it was made for team collaboration, funny eh 😅
Also my first time trying out nixos-containers, very nice to encapsulate or group services together independently of your host NixOS.

@jamesthebard@social.linux.pizzaNothing like building containers...each container takes about 15 minutes to build...and I forgot to bump the version number so the client keeps telling the server it's the old beta version...and now I'm building the containers again.

Abstract: AI agents are increasingly deployed in multi-tenant cloud environments, where they execute diverse tool calls within sandboxed containers, each call with distinct resource demands and rapid fluctuations. We present a systematic characterization of OS-level resource dynamics in sandboxed AI coding agents, analyzing 144 software engineering tasks from the SWE-rebench benchmark across two LLM models. Our measurements reveal that (1) OS-level execution (tool calls, container and agent initialization) accounts for 56-74% of end-to-end task latency; (2) memory, not CPU, is the concurrency bottleneck; (3) memory spikes are tool-call-driven with a up to 15.4x peak-to-average ratio; and (4) resource demands are highly unpredictable across tasks, runs, and models. Comparing these characteristics against serverless, microservice, and batch workloads, we identify three mismatches in existing resource controls: a granularity mismatch (container-level policies vs. tool-call-level dynamics), a responsiveness mismatch (user-space reaction vs. sub-second unpredictable bursts), and an adaptability mismatch (history-based prediction vs. non-deterministic stateful execution). We propose AgentCgroup , an eBPF-based resource controller that addresses these mismatches through hierarchical cgroup structures aligned with tool-call boundaries, in-kernel enforcement via sched_ext and memcg_bpf_ops, and runtime-adaptive policies driven by in-kernel monitoring. Preliminary evaluation demonstrates improved multi-tenant isolation and reduced resource waste.

@thesaigoneer@social.linux.pizzaIt was nice to learn about containers and bootc. But after reinstalling Cosmix yesterday (my NixOS spin) I've decided to stick to that. KDE on the laptop will be served on Alpine, FreeBSD or Void for the next month (at least). GitHub repo's will go today, I'm perfectly happy at Codeberg.

@theodric@social.linux.pizzaCurrently very unimpressed with Mikrotik. They introduced breaking changes to how containers work in RouterOS 7.20 last year, and now they're on 7.21, but their documentation STILL reflects the deprecated and now-unavailable <=7.19.6 mount syntax (`mounts=`) and does not document the new `mount=` and `mountlist=` syntax in any way.
What the fuck, Mikrotik? How is this any way to do releases?
