    OpenInfra Summit Vancouver 2023 Trip Report

    It had been a little over 4 years since I last attended an OpenInfra Summit in person, the last being the Denver summit in May 2019. Needless to say, I was extremely happy to be able to attend! I arrived to Vancouver on Sunday evening. With how late the sun sets there (around 9.30pm) I…

  • Document your old projects and code

    For this Valentine’s day, I’m going through old code to show it some love! More likely than not, after writing something, I (and probably you as well) have been too busy to properly document it. Even if the code was pushed to GitHub, it probably is not useable because there is no (or very limited)…

  • Getting a 64-bit version of kindlegen for macOS

    If you search for kindlegen the first page that shows up is this, and the binary for macOS is 32-bit only, which cannot run on versions of macOS that have completely removed 32-bit support. Thankfully there is a 64-bit version of kindlegen bundled with Kindle Previewer, available here. After installation, just right-click on Kindle Previewer and Show Package Contents.

You can find the upper-constraints.txt file in the openstack/requirements repo, remember to switch to the…

  • Segmentation Fault on Fedora 30 Power(ppc64le) Container on x86

    To my pleasant surprise, it’s really easy to build docker images for other architectures using Docker. It makes use of QEMU user mode emulation to execute the binaries. It’s especially easy on Docker for Desktop on macOS since everything is already preconfigured and all you have to do is fire up the container. In my case ppc64le/fedora:30. However,…
