- Comment on How do you monitor your servers? 4 hours ago:
I use Signoz and OTel collectors to bring in everything from Kubernetes (and also SNMP-to-OTel for the network and NAS stats.)
That covers dashboards and basic alerting. Then on top of that I have an n8n workflow that runs every morning - it pulls all the main stats out of Signoz, as well as issues and their status from my infrastructure repo in Gitlab, and feeds it all into a local LLM (Qwen-3.8-Flash-Next at the moment), which emails me a report on overall cluster health. It also automatically opens a ticket in Gitlab for anything that might need fixing.
It works really nicely, gotta say.
- Comment on Tired of expensive disposable batteries and rechargeable AA suck. So I made a 10k mAh pack for my deadbolt. 2 weeks ago:
I can’t answer for the OP - but “it would be a pain in the arse” would be my answer.
I have an electronic lock on my holiday condo; it’s handy to be able to remotely let someone in if I need them to service the AC when I’m not there or something, and just in general it’s just, well, useful.
The batteries last at least 6 months, so honestly I wouldn’t bother wiring it in even if it was an option. And the “batteries run out” failure mode isn’t exactly a disaster - there’s a traditional key I can use in an emergency, and the other “plan B” is the USB-C port on the bottom of the handle on the outside - worst comes to the worst you can just plug in a USB powerbank to power it up.
