There is Capella which is a tool (software) and method to design systems. It used the Arcadia method (mbse). It is quite extensible.

I don't understand how you can write an article about system design without mention to enterprise architect or Capella. I've read this as "we need to come up with a solution that already exists".

> I personally started on the SE side with almost no software ability, but gradually clawed my way up to a decent level of technical competency, and it continues to be my competitive advantage.

This is exactly my experience. I'm SE since i finished my school. I always feel frustrated by the SE global vision. Some projects do allow me to go toward more technical stuff (sysadmin, network, dev, signal processing, CAD...) and it's quite enjoyable.

I've also started with no SW skill, but i've learn and it has been a great help in my daily job. My SE collegues only do the SE part and don't want to deal or see the more technical parts. In the end, i'm always offered to work on new projects because of this ability to switch from global vision to technical stuff, but in my org, this is not really encouraged nor rewarded.

This is quite impressive and congratulation are well deserved. Now the fun part can start. This work opens a door to the user segment, i can't wait to see what's behind and hope for starlink that their C2 and user segments are well isolated. Let the fuzzing begin.

Genuinely asking, why don't you add dotnet ?

I'm currently in the situation you describe and I would like to try something new. Dotnet is among my candidates. (only asking for personal projects)

Do you plan to sell only the SATA extension?

I've always found pyenv a bit complex to deal with. I've also encountered some bugs with a fresh debian install and pyenv. To put this in perspective, i'm not the sharpest knife in the drawer (not a programmer, not an adminsys).

I prefered alt install for a specific version (python3.3, python 3.X, etc. with associated pip) and virtualenv. Then doing `python3.X -m venv` i got what i need. VScode or pycharm can bind to it.

Recently i've tryed Fedora and they ship python versions compiled so you just need to use the package manager. It's easier and it deals with updates. I stick with that now (i'm migrating from deb to fedora for my servers).

I've discovered them through one of the CCC conference [Seeing The Secret State: Six Landscapes](https://media.ccc.de/v/30C3_-_5604_-_en_-_saal_1_-_201312282...). Around 30 minutes you can see the glow from one of them to perfectly align with the glow of a communication satellite. 100m dish seems totaly insane to me, this had to be a fun project i guess.

I've found it really interesting and it works great to also copy documents without altering quality.

About notes, there is one thing that bothers me. It's highlighted text. Colors are clear and are always filtered. Blue and green highlighter are ok, but pink or yellow ones are another story. That's inherent to the method used and as far I know (and tried) can't be fixed with adjusted thresholds.

It's nonetheless a great tool and I've automated its use for every scan I do.

I'm no programmer, but as an amateur I've found this article enlighting.

I've always found web dev tutorials short on explanations and not providing the big picture : a system level view. It quickly come to "do this, do that and you're done". I need to know the concept before the implementation. I'm probably lacking some CS background or so.

Illustrations in the article just clicked in my head and made me understand what I was not able to understand in other resources (like in the flask mega tutorial written by Miguel Grinberg). I've found explanations before code samples crystal clear and so helpful to review the code.

I can't wait to be at home to clone the repo and mess with it.

I can't speak for others but for me, this article is what was missing to go ahead in web dev. Thank you.

I've liked so much the illustrations that I've saved them on my smartphone.

You are not proving him he is wrong. You are talking about a different phenomena: satiety is different from getting sick of something.

If you reach satiety your body and brain won't want to eat more.

If you are sick of something, you will just switch to something else.

I'm currently using aiohttp. There is features I don't find in butterfly docs like : limit connection, limit connection per host or per time frame.

Do you know if those exist in butterfly?

I'm already deep in aiohttp and it's not an easy task to learn an async client (at least in my case, but I'm no dev) so if I do switch it would be for more features (retry option on exceptions, limit requests per host and per time frame...). But that's only my opinion.

OVH works well for me. Since 2 years I guess. I took the smallest VPS.

Could you elaborate about the architecture? I'm really interested in learning this.

At which level the interface between admin panel and apps is? Is it a dedicated app for the admin panel and just a front end to an AD or database? Like there is no real admin panel on the app itself.
