If you’ve found this randomly, consider checking out Part 1 to see if this interests you. Okay, so we have all the dependencies in place. Let’s do this. Assuming you already have a static site, the next steps should be relatively straightforward. If this your first time with Hugo, check out the documentation here. pushd site # READ and MODIFY manifest.yaml # This will not work out of the box kubectl apply -f . ... Read more

After some prodding by a fellow nerd, I recently went back to a project I’d been working on a long(~5 years) time ago. You might know it from when I think I looked funnier -> https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=61zQgaSqtWY Anyway, the world of packaging and deploying applications has moved forward quite a bit from then and to go along with it I created a Docker image with OpenBR packaged in. You shouldn’t have to worry about installing an outdated version of OpenCV. ... Read more

Note: This is definitely not the easiest way to serve static content on the web but we’ll be pedantic, mostly cause it’s fun. So I recently decided to move management of this site onto Kubernetes and I’d been meaning to try out DO’s Kubernetes offering and I have to say - it works great! In this post, we’ll look at a bunch of different things that will all come together to give us the development experience we might’ve come to expect in this new world. ... Read more

Hello there After a conversation that started with visiting https://rtionline.gov.in, I was curious about how many gov.in domains were serving web content, and how many of those were serving web content securely?

Only 32 are available over SSL without any warnings - 41% use SSL correctly. ... Read more

In this exercise we’ll look at some questions we can ask ourselves about surveillance cameras and how, in the absence of strong data protection laws for individuals, we could think about privacy for the people. These questions are best thought of as “How to annoy your local grocery store owner?” Does camera X need to be here? This one is simple. Look around. If you can see 4 cameras, there should be a good reason for all 4 to be there. ... Read more

After a lot of thought, I’ve decided I no longer want to host kasisnu.com with Tumblr. I’m giving Hugo a try. This means no ads, https goodness, and the ability to write in markdown. The finer things in life.

This is the personal blog of one Kasisnu. I love science, computers, and music. I work as a software engineer by day, and figure out what I’d like to do with the rest of my time, the rest of the time. Sometimes that means going for a run, climbing artificial walls, or reading about software, engineering, security, education policy. Maybe you meant to go to http://kasisnu.tumblr.com print("hello, world")
