Ask HN: Did macOS Sonoma break your iCloud setup?
> A warning, not an admonishment: Use Apple services in a novel or unsupported manner and you're asking for trouble.
+1
I've always had sync issues with iCloud Drive when storing developer projects and related things there. It ends up stuck or confused or conflicted but tries to resolve the merge conflicts opaquely and it's hard to know there's a problem in real time vs until later when you find something broken. I keep all dev things out of iCloud after getting burned by this enough times over the years.
To OP: Consider a repo dotfiles setup like using Chezmoi or similar. Transitioning to it was less friction than I expected and the only downside really is having to remember to commit changes across devices.

Russ Cox: Go Testing by Example
chezmoi (<https://chezmoi.io> or <https://github.com/twpayne/chezmoi>) has a couple dozen txtar tests. They are both amazing and completely frustrating to use, but I don't think that there would be a better way to test most of what chezmoi does without them.
Tom Payne (the creator and primary developer of chezmoi) has added some extra commands to the txtar context which makes things easier for certain classes of testing.

I want to mess around with my config files. What is the best way for me to be able to go back and forth between my normal config and my test config?
I’ve been using chezmoi, which uses git, to manage my dot files and have different branches for these types of experiments.

Fulfilling a reader's request for my “dot files”
https://chezmoi.io is a dotfile manager that is runs on multiple OSes (including Windows) while handling differences from machine to machine, allows you to store your secrets in your password manager (so you don't have to store secrets in your dotfile repo), and it even supports the NO_COLOR environment variable. Check it out! Disclaimer: I'm the author.
There's a comprehensive list of the most popular dotfile managers at https://dotfiles.github.io/utilities/.

Ansible Basics: Your First HelloWorld Playbook 🚀
Ansible is an open-source IT automation tool that simplifies application deployment, cloud provisioning, and configuration management across diverse environments. It uses a declarative language to describe the desired state of the system, and then takes the necessary actions to achieve that state. Ansible has become incredibly popular due to its simplicity, agentless architecture, and extensive community support. Document: ansible.com, ansible basics

Set up an Automation script with Ansible
Ansible is a tool used to help manage software automation processes, configuration management across machines, deployment as well as remote execution of commands and scripts. In sports, Ansible operates as the coach of your team by providing strategies (playbooks), and actions, and ensuring the smooth execution of tasks across your infrastructure, just like a coach guides and directs players (Servers)during a game.

Interesting Uses of Ansible's ternary filter
They support for-if from python, too: https://jinja.palletsprojects.com/en/3.1.x/templates/#loop-f... but I haven't tried the "recursive" keyword to know if ansible supports that. I say "ansible supports that" because they don't just drop jinja2 into ansible and call it a draw, they have a bunch of custom execution integrations: https://github.com/ansible/ansible/blob/v2.16.3/lib/ansible/...

The 2024 Web Hosting Report
To manage a VM, you can use something as simple as just manual actions over SSH, or can use tools like Ansible, Hashicorp's Packer and Terraform or other automations. For an app where there is minimal load and security/reliability concern, VMs are still a great option that provide a lot of value for the buck

Running stateful workloads on Kubernetes with Rook Ceph
In the lab to follow, we'll quickly provision a 3-node kubeadm cluster (1 master, 2 workers) on the cloud provider of your choice using an automation stack comprised of OpenTofu and Ansible, then deploy Rook Ceph using the official Helm charts and confirm that we are now able to successfully create CSI volume snapshots from PVCs by reusing the MinIO example from our last article.
