Only right-wing zionist propaganda then? Noted

I agree but I hate it when at the end of an article I realize it was just an ad.

The conflict of interest should be disclaimed in the very first sentence of the post.

How do you deploy updates of your app without downtime? (I know not all web apps need that but in case you do I would love to know about your approach)

How do deal with horizontal scaling or failovers in general? These are two of the reasons I am still unconvinced about using SQLite in production:

- if only one process can write to the db, how do you architect your system so that writes are performed by just one of the instances (the writer) - how do you gracefully upgrade your app without any downtime?

What about missing on the first 45 mins?

Sometimes an unexpected snack makes its way into my belly, leaving behind an annoying dirty plate that needs some cleaning.

Yeah, I tried ChatGPT too. It did offer some good alternatives, but then it started hallucinating. It literally told me of several existent books, except that the names of the authors were incorrect, or the plot was not quite the same, etc.

Thanks for trying though

This is precisely my worry. I do use tailscale but I have this itch in the back of my mind... I have a lot of sensitive and personal stuff in my machines, and even though it would be hard for someone to get into my VPN, tailscale themselves could easily add a node and join my VPN without me even noticing.

Take a look at how many things uBlock blocks when you open Slack on your browser.

Someone forgot to turn on parental control for this child.

Received my paperd.ink display. I have no experience with programming directly on these kind of boards so I'm planning on building/documenting small projects to teach myself and others how to do it.

I love tailscale.

Lately I have been migrating all my self-hosted stuff into a raspberry pi (instead of running a public instance in the cloud). It gives me a bit of piece of mind knowing that it adds an extra layer of security (to hit any of my endpoints/apps you would need to infiltrate my VPN). And it will save me a lot of money on hosting.

I don't need to expose my computers publicly or enable upnp or anything. It just works.

Paperless + a custom telegram bot I wrote that receives any document I sent to it (usually taken with an app called Notebloc)

The bot names and places the file in the right folder for paperless to ingest.

One thing that has been surprisingly amazing: I got stretchable sheets. They are awesome. Won't use normal sheets again.

I disagree. That's not enough these days.

If you want to build anything mildly interesting, you need to have a solid background on software engineering (building data pipelines in Spark, Flink, etc. goes way beyond knowing SQL), you need to really understand your runtime (e.g. the JVM, and how to tune it when working with massive amounts of data), you need a bit of knowledge about infrastructure, because some of the most specialized and powerful tools do not have yet an established "way of doing things", and the statefulness nature of them make them different from your typical web app deployment.

Maybe if you want to become a data analyst you only need SQL, and I would still doubt it. But data engineering is a bit different.
