ppg.report VS ordiri

Thank you u/aeharding !!! I use ppg.report regularly -- you can Sponsor/support Alexander and his hard work here: https://github.com/sponsors/aeharding

https://ppg.report

Shows a nicely formatted weather report for flying my paramotor, pulling data in from many different sources :-)

Why use it when you have Windy.com and Windy.app and ppg.report and aviationweather.gov ?

Yep I like ppg.report for quick no fluff wind speeds at different altitudes. When I just want to basics standing in the field or driving to an LZ, Windy is for large screen analyses at home days beforehand.

PPG.report (web) - I have it as an Icon on my iPhone for quick access to the NOAA GFS model data, which gives you 24 hours of wind predictions at different altitudes. It is not always accurate, but it IS predicting a solid 20 km square. I prefer this now over RyanCarlton.com because there are weather forecasts and airspace restrictions built in. It's very pretty too! I think Alexander Harding lurks in here. You can see and view the code for the website too. You can donate to Alexander's work on Github as well.

So excited for colors outside of sRGB! I make good use of display-p3, currently only supported in Safari, on https://ppg.report.

Flying my paramotor is one of the things I love to do in my free time, and this project (weather report for paramotor pilots) is the result of that!

I like ppg.report, but I always thought it was just a re-skined version of wind.ppgzone.com

https://ppg.report/ and RyanCarlton.com show you CAPE and CIN.

It only works if your location is within 30 miles of an airport. In which case you will see a little widget in the header, as seen here: https://github.com/aeharding/ppg.report/releases/tag/v2.1.0

I self host a huge amount of stuff on-top of a custom cloud platform I built using a Kubernetes cluster deployed as a tenant of my cloud.

I run a few servers which all have an "ordlet" installed, akin to the kubelet, which configure network namespaces for isolated tenant networking and boots virtual machines which use a EC2 style metadata server to fetch their boot script, which for this purpose configures a HA kubernetes cluster that then uses ArgoCD to fetch all the manifests from my git repo using an AppSet.

It's so incredibly over complicated and over engineered, it's a lot of fun :)

I've been working on an incredibly over engineered platform to run my home lab and to help learn about some lower levels of the stack I don't get to play with much in my day job as a consultant.

It's based on the kubernetes api server so while it doesn't understand "pods" or even proper "namespaces", it uses the same YAML resource model and api server code.
