If your scale is right, both Hetzner and Digital Ocean support the Kubernetes autoscaler.

https://github.com/kube-hetzner/terraform-hcloud-kube-hetzner

https://docs.digitalocean.com/products/kubernetes/how-to/autoscale/

Digital Ocean is super easy for beginners, Hetzner is a bit more technical but like half the cost.

This only outweighs the per-node overhead though if you're scaling up/down entire 4vcpu/8gib nodes and/or running multiple applications that can borrow cpu/ram from each other.

If you're small scale, microVMs like Lambda or fly.io are the only way to go for meaningful scaling under 4vcpu/8gib of daily variation. Also, at that scale, you can ask yourself if you really need autoscaling, since you can get servers that big from Hetzner for like $20/month. Simple static scaling is better at that scale unless you have more dev time than money.

It's very easy to watch in 2024.

What is the waiver that Trump is revoking for California climate standards?

at least they will have no idea what they're doing.

The unfortunate thing is that the EU may have to suck it up and build more bridges with the PRC if the US shuns us.

Europe may be bigger than the US, but even Europe is only about 20% of the world's GDP. We can't take on Russia, the US, and China at the same time.

Yeah, I don't mean that this election was rigged or anything, I just mean that the US presidential election isn't really the combined will of every single American. Other countries have more democratic systems. Even the house races are more democratic.

Prophetic because it calls people stupid after an undemocratic election?

[–] jlh@lemmy.jlh.name 21 points 6 days ago (1 children)

implying that an election to choose a single representative for 300 million people with a 2-horse race is particularly democratic
