Scheduled Topics / Demos

  • [Becca] Huge dev image

    • We spent the whole time on this :)

    • Discovery! It’s the huge APP_USER_ID (~2.1 billion) that Becca has which is causing the image to be ~700GB.

      • a buffer overflow perhaps?

    • Open question: is it a macOS thing, or a 2U IT management software thing?

    • Open question: is the image actually coming out 700GB, or is Docker confused and just thinks it’s that big?

      • (regardless, it takes multiple minutes to export the image…)

    • Kyle has reproduced this Linux box by building with APP_USER_ID=2000000000, so it’s not specific to macOS or to OrbStack.

  • [Kyle] quicker artifact copying

    • Tabled until next time

Cross Pollination

  • Tools/features/opportunities

  • Tips and tricks

  • Roadmap news

  • a 2U enterprise team is trying out OEP-37 dev data

    • (anyone can try that out!)

  • OrbStack is in 2U vendor review

    • 2U is likely to recommend OrbStack (closed-source) for Devstack, with Colima (F/OSS) as a recommended alternative

  • Kyle still using improved Tutor build prototype, Régis is reviewing

 

Challenges

  • Each challenge should have a follow up action.

  • If you have an idea for follow up actions, add it.

  • Or if you aren’t sure, leave it blank.

  • We’ll discuss all actions either way.

 

Successes

  • DevExp wins!
