Bravo! You have elevated a honed tool to a truly engaging artifact! I think the large challenge in design is mitigating the breaking point between ruthless efficiency and endearing novelty.

I picked up a Let's Split v2[0] when it came out years ago and never soldered it up.. maybe it's time!

I've found it very straight forward to work with. I run the cli on macOS to spin up ephemeral containers all the time for testing and simple tasks. Never had an issue.

In the spirit of the OP, I also run podman rootless on a home server running the usual home lab suspects with great success. I've taken to using the 'kube play' command to deploy the apps from kubernetes yaml and been pleased with the results.

If it ain’t broke.. move fast and break things?

>Many Wumpuses were hunted that day

Oh man! I remember playing 'Hunt the Wumpus'[0] with my cousins on my grandfathers TI-99 in the mid 80's. Probably the first computer I ever touched!

In the spirit of HN pedantry, should the plural be Wumpi? I will concede that wumpuses is way more fun to say..

I built it myself for a while but as I mentioned elsewhere, it's now being packaged in the Alpine Linux testing branch. That makes a container image an 'apk add' away.. whether you trust Alpine Linux more or less than the AdGuard Home teams is up to you.

A Raspberry Pi with Alpine Linux makes a sweet little DNS server. AdGuard Home is even packaged in the testing branch[0] these days

My takeaway is not that estimating is hard, it's that intelligent people can easily over-value past performance and under-value ___domain specific knowledge for a given task.

Accurate estimating gets done everyday outside of software, and there exist experienced estimators and tested contractural frameworks used to mitigate unknowns, while optimizing for whichever combination of time, cost, and quality is agreed upon by all parties.

I gave up systemd for openRC on Alpine. Much better suited to my own needs, and uptime is vastly improved.

It really is a world of difference. I think the only people really championing systemd are those that found writing scripts and futzing around too complicated. They wanted open-source Windows and they got it.

TIL you can show useful stats with 'Activity Monitor.app' right in the dock by right clicking the icon and selecting from the 'Dock Icon' menu item. Thanks!

Thanks for pointing that out. Unfortunately, the option I'd want - memory utilization - doesn't seem to be one of the choices.

+1, thank you js2!
