I believe you can set a different proxy on a per container basis, so you could for example have a VPN container and a work container that send traffic via different places.

Yep. The hardest part of a k8s cluster at home is ingress and storage. Previously I was using metallb and port forwarding, which worked ok, but not very reliably for various reasons. A cloudflare tunnel sidecar completely solved the ingress

Nomad is pretty great for a lot of things, especially self hosted. The only reason I prefer k8s is the ecosystem. Even though there are standardized specs like CSI, they were written with k8s in mind, so some drivers are completely broken o

I should've phrased it as all in on Next really. I really like Vercel and Next.js serverless for hosting, and I've usually put APIs on a subdomain. The issue is that then using Blitz for authentication and rpc layer becomes very h

Next pushes towards serverless functions and API routes that I didn't really enjoy using for more than just a trivial endpoint. Blitz is currently built on top of Next so this same issue came up, and its value proposition is really onl

Similarly to Bitcoin, miners are paid by a combination of minting HNT (which halves over time) and fees paid by network usage. I'm very curious to see how this will play out over time. If network usage / fees don't increase o

It's not super clear, but it looks like Fermyon was started by people formerly at DeisLabs, which has done quite a bit of wasm work. It looks quite promising, even more so considering the lineage and expertise of the team.

Take a look at ScyllaDB Alternator [1], which is API compatible with DynamoDB. Scylla also supports multiregion clusters, which should help with latency. I've not used alternator, but I've had a good experience with Scylla, and it

This seems like a no go for anything where the dataset used for training includes any private data at all, or even public images that have been privately labeled by the company. It makes sense for hobbyists, but I doubt this entire platform

That reminds me of this article[1] by Bryan Cantrill. One takeaway is that Rust's ability to easily import generic data structures makes the average Rust program faster than the average C program. With a bit of effort, C can be made fa

It feels like the solution to most of this is static typing, not writing a ton of tests by hand for every single dependency. Observable changes in a dependency's logic should be caught by your own unit tests. Changes in dependency func

Backblaze also supports that pricing model with B2, which is a fixed cost per gigabyte stored per month. B2 also has an S3 compatible API, which lets you use any backup software you want.

Cloudflare also recently published a bunch of posts about their transition to post-quantum cryptography. Is it that NIST is close to standardization and organizations are starting to experiment, or is it something else?

Looking at this docs page[1], it doesn't look like the execution environment gets reset completely between each request. Do you partition free/paying users or public/private repos? It seems like an attacker could gain a footh

Can you really still call what Expensify uses SQLite? It is very heavily based on SQLite, but they say that they've "wrapped it in a custom distributed transaction layer named Bedrock". Feels like they've gotten much clo

What in the world is your threat model? You need some concept of sessions somewhere, even if it's just a list of which client certs (aka sessions) are valid in case someone looses a yubikey. Those certs should also be short lived, sinc

You may be able to go the Webauthn route instead. It won't completely eliminate sessions, but you could instead sign short lived JWTs. The main benefits would be the ability to use any compatible device (ios and andriod natively suppor

Isn't that a function of being an EV rather than an ICE? I'd expect an EV from any of the traditional automakers to also require comparatively little maintenance.
