It's trivial to do public certs with acme.sh, caddy, or certbot so you might as well. For most private networks I think it's fine to use plain HTTP.

This feels a bit like being in school and seeing the naughty kids being offered sweets or privileges, meanwhile the good kids get nothing because they're already well-behaved.

I'm considered a senior engineer by the company I work for and my peers, however it makes me cringe to write or say it. I think it comes across as pretentious.

Wireguard isn't so good for mesh networks because every new node requires reconfiguring all the others. Even with management utilities this is a pain, so instead I recommend something like nebula https://github.com/slac

I spent a couple of years working on a Haskell backend and honestly the safety and performance wasn't worth it, compared to the agility of python. Judicious use of mypy, unit testing and leaning heavily on the framework can keep things

I'm guessing it's a very simple application, given the timescale, so you can probably use Spring Boot to get started and follow a simple tutorial of your choice. The precise details in your case are probably close to what the tuto

The image has nothing to do with the success of the album, it's the music. They could have put a deflated football on the cover and it would have still been iconic. Given the easy availability of newborn babies, I think $200 is fair.

I worked on a large web scraper for several years and JavaScript almost never needs to be executed. The only times I've had were to extract obfuscated links that are revealed by some bit twiddling code, specific to each request, and th

Definitely an indicator of bad design if you need this for development, but I can imagine it's sometimes useful for ops to play with different configurations.

It seems like you're asking a more general question unrelated to JSON. Rather you want to know how to manipulate data without all the ceremony of a strong type system, as you would in JavaScript or python. This is completely valid and

For those that don't want to upgrade, why not use a pinned compiler? Everyone else does this with other languages, and overall I think the benefits outweigh the costs.

I think the best approach in many cases is to bring data management into a specialised application, rather than using spreadsheets as a database. They can use the CRUD applications we all write or some off-the-shelf solution, but the import

I don't think this is right. You can calculate the probability due to pure chance of having a certain number of extreme events in a year, given their variance since records began. If we suppose the probability is 10%, then seeing the s
