Was surprised at how you cant easily customize the kubernetes nodes you get on digitalocean (e.g., add your ssh key on creation, cloud-init, etc). but then I started configuring the node manually and decided that's a bad idea and it totally makes sense to not customize it, because the point is that the nodes are disposable

So I have a pgbouncer pod but I want to add a health check to it to make sure it can actually connect. psql isn't in the image and so I added a second container to the pod and can define a health check, but then the main container command has to be like, `sleep infinity` or something or it exits and the pod fails to start. And then it just feels hacky

dang I kept thinking DNS was broken on digitalocean kubernetes (even deleted and re-created my cluster) but it's a bug in busybox. who would have guessed

@BobBob a cluster to run kirakiratter on (splitting up the different parts so it's not all on one machine), and whatever other small sites/scripts I have lying around

Still unsure if I want 2 nodes with 2 vCPUs and 2GB RAM each, or 3 nodes with 1 vCPU and 2GB RAM each. Well I guess since it's kubernetes, it should be easy to switch if I ever change my mind.

After seeing various sad messages about Reggie, I had assumed he died but thankfully it is just retirement

I was misled into thinking DigitalOcean Kubernetes had the $5 droplets available, since their blog post said it and the site seems to also suggest it, but the minimum that you could select is the $10 droplet
