No question, just a thanks. I've read a lot of your stuff, and it's always incredibly insightful and clever. Thanks for being an amazing Internet citizen!

Well it's abandoned and experimental, and there are better ways to hole punch than what I did, e.g. using STUN and TURN. But yeah it could replace one ngrok use case, though I think ngrok does not do L2/3 bridges. Also: I think te

I only tested one hop, e.g. A(10.x)---->B(192.x). All I had to do there was to adapt the routing tables: On A, route 192.x traffic to the "natter" tap/tun interface (I always forget which is L2), and on B, route traffic to

I dabbled with QUIC a few years ago and I couldn't agree more. It was pleasant to work with, and because it's UDP based, suddenly you can do NAT hole punching more easily. Funny that you mentioned a VPN, because I made a little ex

I tried Kagi for the free trial and I do not share your enthusiasm or positive experiences. I really wanted it to be great, but for the things I search (I am searching mostly extremely technical, and domain specific things), I found myself

Clever is bad, boring is good. As a senior engineer, you see things like this all the time from more junior engineers: way too generic code, done in an overly clever way, incompressible to most. I've spent countless hours telling junio

I may be biased, but you should totally integrate ntfy.sh [1] support, so you get a push notification every time a plane passes over your house. I think that'd be a cool use case. Disclaimer: I am the maintainer of ntfy. [1] https:&#x

Yeah the conflict files are no fun. You can, however, set up a sync location as "receiving only", which is neat if you have your IDE on the host and then just run things in the VM. Though I run it in 2-way mode because of the cach

I find it exceptionally annoying to constantly commit and push, and entirely impossible if your IDE lives in the host. I have started to use Syncthing to share the entire workspace between host and VM and it works great. It's near inst

Another fantastic UI is IntelliJ (database support is built into the IDE) or Datagrip. It's a paid product, but it's more than worth the money if you use it daily.

If you mirror and snapshot the package repo you can get reproducible-ish builds. We have done this at very large scale at $job, see my post here: https://blog.heckel.io/2019/09/18/image-based-upgrades-upgra...

It is worth noting that Citus was acquired by Microsoft a few years ago (not a secret, but may not be obvious to everyone), and they have since shifted heavily towards the Azure side of the world. Back when it happened we tried to buy their

Awesome. Thanks for listening!

This is super cool, and congratulations for launching it. But the pricing is obscene. Reasonable would be 50ct per image, or at least a lower level tier for the occasional use, something around $3-5/month.

That's actually a great explanation of why it's not easy to implement the clear function the way it makes sense for slices. However, this is a built-in, not a normal function, so they could make it do whatever they like, including

I don't think there necessarily is a default production webserver setup. People use different routers or frameworks, or go bare bones because they can. You asked for an example, and here is one. This is my side project "ntfy"

99% of my users do not sign up. And even the ones with user accounts do not have to provide email addresses. I am quite the privacy junkie, though I realize that's counter productive for a product haha.

I realize it may have sounded like I was suggesting the approach. Quite the contrary: I would never do that again or suggest it. I was merely pointing out that it was quite useful at times :-) We had lots of problems similar to what you wer

A company I used to work for extensively used this method. It's incredibly useful to be able to read a config or state value from any language and even bash scripts quickly. However, and this is a big drawback, once you have too many c

I maintain an open source push notification service called ntfy [1]. It's 100% open source, but I have recently started offering ntfy Pro, a paid SaaS offering. I am telling you it's super hard to get people to pay for it. It may

Hello folks, I posted here about ntfy before, but since my last post it's been a loooong time, so I thought I'd give an update to this fantastic community. ntfy is a a tool that lets you send push notifications to your phone from
