Top of the Gondogoro La pass. Face to face with four of the tallest mountains on Earth.

Directly in front, K2. On the far right of the image, Broad Peak. Further right off screen, G1 and G2

One of the toughest, sketchiest, & most exciting trips of my life

Никто не должен знать, что облако не бесконечно

Как планировать ресурсы и балансировать нагрузки в облаке? Многие привыкли думать о нем как о каком‑то бесконечном ресурсе — нажал на кнопку, и через несколько секунд виртуальная машина готова. Но это ощущение безграничности, на самом деле, результат большой работы. Привет, Хабр! Я — Анастасия Стоянова, менеджер эксплуатации K2 Cloud. В этой статье вас ждёт: — рассказ о физической и виртуальной инфраструктуре ; — пояснение, почему ВМ ≠ сервер; — описание цикла capacity management с расчетом потребности по трендам, целевым запасом под рост, закупкой и вводом новых мощностей, сверкой плана с фактическим потреблением; — механизмы помогающие пережить пики нагрузки; — и многое другое.

30 luglio 1954, Bonatti e Mahdi raggiungono la quota 8100 m. Sul K2 è buio, non hanno nulla per ripararsi né per ristorarsi, muovono gli arti per non farli congelare. Sarà una notte terribile, qualcosa che fino ad allora nessuno aveva mai tentato prima. Per richiederlo scrivere a: [email protected] #K2

#K2 #Space is thinking big, with a focus on "mega-class" satellites and an engineering hub in #Seattle (a.k.a. Satellite City). A newly announced $500 million funding round will let the California-based startup think even bigger. https://www.geekwire.com/2026/k2-space-raises-500m-big-satellites/

My #K2 #trek experience was full of insanity, but a favourite moment was our rest day where we all sat outside enjoying the weather, reading our various books in front of 6000m+ monsters

Books read:

3 Body Problem
The Dark Forest
Death’s End
Neuromancer
Project Hail Mary

Currently: Annihilation

Das ist schon ein wenig wild in meinem Kopf gerade...

Ich laufe gerade zur Haltestelle mit einem Rucksack von "Powerslide" auf dem meine Inliner von "Rollerblade" geschnallt sind, welche mit Achsen von "K2" bestückt sind.

Ja, ich brauche neue skates. ;)

They said to never meet strangers on the internet, but when Evan said he likes to get high…I found a few solutions at 5600m/18372ft

5th trip so far with people I’ve interacted with only online, and I’m so grateful for the incredible company each time

Who/where next???

Il y a 1 an et demi, j'entamais la conception d'un nouveau zoetrope que j'ai appelé le K2.
Aujourd'hui, il est terminé à 98%. C'est un gros prototype (POC Proof of Concept).
Cette expérience m'amène à développer un nouveau le K3 qui réutilise les innovations du K2 mais plus esthétique.

I had a good day yesterday, watching 4 films :)

"The Last First: Winter K2" (https://www.imdb.com/title/tt39150288/) - a rather heavy one to start with, about an expedition up the #mountain #K2 that goes badly wrong.

Next was "The Wind's Thirst" (https://www.imdb.com/title/tt39172060/), about some indigenous Colombians at the mercy of #coal extraction and #WindFarm projects redirecting river water and subjecting them to violence.

"Hell's Army" (https://www.imdb.com/title/tt39830102/) - was very interesting - about the origins of the #WagnerGroup and their involvement in various wars.
In the Q&A afterwards, they said that some former Wagner Group members are now security on #Russia's "Shadow Fleet" (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Russian_shadow_fleet).

Last was "Notes From The Underground" (https://www.sheffdocfest.com/film/notes-underground) about the #HipHop music scene in #CapeTown and how it developed under #apartheid up to the present day.
In their Q&A they said they spent 34 days in 2017 filming, but lost all the footage in the burglary :( After mourning for a while, they then had to go back and shoot it all again.

There were loads of other interesting-looking films I would like to watch, but I could only make the Sunday :(

There was also a #BurningMan series on #HBO (https://www.imdb.com/title/tt29033873) that they showed a couple of episodes from, but I was too late to get tickets. I really need to look out for that as my mate said it was good!

Mine would definitely be selling my #Elecraft #K1. I sold it to buy the #k2 .. but i really didn't even need the extra money. I wasn't even thinking about it. I just thought of it as a trade-up.

I never should have sold it.

#AmateurRadio #HamRadio

For me, it would be the #Elecraft #K2. I build the K1, and I loved that radio. I sold it to buy the K2, and to this day, I regret selling it.

I never want to feel that way, so I'll never get rid of the K2.

My biggest regret is selling my #K1. I sold it to buy the #K2. I built both. I NEVER should have sold the K1.

My second biggest regrets is NOT building the #KX1.. what was I even thinking?
