random question - any training recommendation for security in kubernetes?
Now available, code scanning is a developer-first, GitHub-native approach to easily find security vulnerabilities before they reach production.
oh snap just in time as we migrate to github

Oh bleh.
For private repositories, code scanning is available to GitHub Enterprise through Advanced Security. Contact Sales to learn more.
Would be nice to have it on the other paid plans for private repos

Empowering Content Creators.
@johncblandii I guess this is the thing you told me about
Empowering Content Creators.
Indeed
wish I knew about this before buying all my gear
@dalekurt @johncblandii
@Erik Osterman (Cloud Posse) What do you regret buying? I bought the Elgato CamLink 4K recently to use with my Sony A6300 mirrorless camera.
I spent so much time researching stuff and asking around.
Do you use the Sony A6300 as your webcam too?
with the camlink?
@Erik Osterman (Cloud Posse) Yes, I recently started doing that and gotten several compliments about the quality.
Camera and a light.

@Erik Osterman (Cloud Posse) Did you go ahead and purchase the camlink?
I did not yet
I need to get the camera first
What are you thinking about getting?
haven’t pursued that seriously yet (with intent to buy) - but my thinking is one of the sony HD camcorders that natively supports operating like a webcam.
Would a ring or other light like that system assist with backlighting? My office has windows on 3 walls and isn’t really suited for me to position my desk facing the windows. I’m always backlit on calls. I’ve replaced my window shades with a double layer shade which helped but its not great
I think so long as you get more light in front that behind, but led lights might not be strong enough.
