Weeknotes 2022-04-11
Recorded and produced a new podcast episode about microservices. For my podcast hosting project I need some place to store podcast episodes and therefore I finally automated the setup of minio. Let see if it will be fast enough :). Did a bugfix release of kptncook. And started to collect information about deployed services which then could be used by other services doing logging, monitoring or backup.
Things I Learned
- If you don't want to run your minio installation publicly this ssh-portforwarding command works (you have to change username and ports): ssh -v -L 10000:127.0.0.1:10000 -L 10001:127.0.0.1:10001 minio@staging.wersdoerfer.de

WR1349 Embargo: Modelle, Zölle, Anreize WRINT - Wirtschaftskunde
What I like most about this podcast is to get a glance at the economic viewpoint, which is usually really foreign to me. Highlights: Maybe just use tariffs and form a price cartel to rob gas/oil from russia (they have to go down with their own price to be able to sell at market price). Those who scream loudest about oil/gas from russia being not substitutable are those who are most afraid of being substituted.

Intelligente Kraken - Aliens mit neun Gehirnen Sein und Streit
Octopus cannot see color with their eyes, but with their arms :€ and the information about color and ground structure does not need to be transferred to the central brain, because each arm has one (bigger than the central one). They build "houses" with an individual aesthetic and get angry if you mess it up.

Machtvoll? - Kunstwerke Das philosophische Radio
It's weird, every time I listen to Markus Gabriel talking about abstract topics I'm not familiar with, I'm thinking: Hmm, interesting and eloquent. Everytime I hear him say concrete things about topics I know about (computer stuff), I'm like: Wow, this is complete bullshit. Not sure what to make of this. But there were a lot of intereting definitions of art: From having no intent/purpose (Kant) to showing how things really are (which needs to be intentional, Klee) to art is the definition of art (Kosuth). Kept me entertained at least while doing sports.
