  • Thanks for the input! I’ve been thinking that’d I’d probably just stick to index funds and avoid (for now) individual companies. My financial advisor does do individual companies (to fit the allocation targets), and does do tax loss harvesting, but I think that might be a bit complicated for my initial attempts.

    I had thought about doing something like S&P 500 fund + some set of small and medium cap index funds, rather than trying to identify individual companies that fit into “large/mid/small cap & industry spread”, but even in those broad realms there’s lots of “index 500” funds and lots of “medium/small cap” index funds, how do I figure out which ones to buy and how to compare them?










  • Thanks for all of the suggestions!

    Right now our guidance is that each developer is given a namespace and a helm chart to install and the wording is such that developers wouldn’t think of it as an ephemeral resource (ie. people have their helm installation up for months, and periodically upgrade it).

    It would be nice to have user’s do a fresh install each time they “start” working, and have some way to automatically remove helm installations after a time period, but we do have times where it’s nice to have a longer-lived env because you’d working within some accumulated state.

    Maybe there’s something to automatically scaling down workloads on a cadence or after a certain time period, but it would be challenging to figure out the triggers for that.
