Ah yes, that would work pretty well! You'd have to be able to guarantee any migrations can run within the timeouts, but at a per-tenant level that should be very doable for most cases. Not sure why I didn't think of that approach

Appreciate the response (and the blog post itself)! I probably worded my question poorly, but I'm more wondering about executing schema migrations against a large number of DO's as part of a deployment (such as 1 per customer). I

This is probably a really stupid question, but how would one handle schema migrations with this kind of setup? My understanding is it's aimed at having a database per-tenant (or even more broken down than that). Is there a sane way of

We're doing this as an internal tool so right now the priority is to make it useful for us. We use tailscale already so we've decided to support that initially. But the auth is setup in a pretty modular way, so anyone should be ab

My last job had an internal tool for deploying all, or a reduced set of, their platform into a kube namespace. We called them One Time Environments and used them for testing and development. They were fantastic, really fast to spin up, and

As you say, nginx does complain about the cert files not existing, so that's pretty close to what I do. I just start with the non-ssl version, let certbot do it's thing, and then copy the result after it's deployed (if I reme

That's really interesting, I personally don't read those tone differences based on the casing. Neither approach carries different warmth or formality to me at all. I wonder if this is a regional or generational thing?

Mine is dead simple. I just have a repo with all my ansible in it, and have a nested module called "service". It takes in an app name, domain name, backup schedule, and a true/false on whether it should get a public nginx set

I just use the github registry, but I've been paying for their personal pro subscription for years now so it wasn't really an "additional" cost for me.

I suppose like anything, it's a preference based on where the majority of your experience is, and what you're using it for. If you're running things you've written and it's all done the same way, docker probably is

This is super nice, and I'm a big fan of the detailed readme with screenshots. I'll definitely be trying it out, although I do have a pretty nice setup now which will be hard to pull away from. It's ansible driven, lets me du

I've had the "pleasure" (/s) of inheriting a pretty large GraphQL API which I've had to maintain for the past few years. I've gone through the process of the hype, and then the sheer frustration. I'm now a

The point of an MVP is to do the minimal to prove viability. A waitlist gives you an iteration of that in a tiny space of time. In OP's case they failed to critisie their MVP (marketing site and waitlist) enough. But if they had, they&

If you go much lower, shareholders become reluctant wondering if it's really worth it, or if the board are negotiating hard enough. If you go much higher, shareholders start to wonder why someone is willing to pay so much for a stock.

Given the rate of change, for both UX and scams, I think it's probably best not to pre-plan. There's a very high chance you won't be able to predict the way you'll need to interact with technology in the future. Knowing

Congrats on your launch! It seems well designed and well thought though from a UX perspective. The landing page is also very simple and easy to wrap my head around. I'd be tempted to use this for a small side project, but I'm not

Generally there's a promoter in the middle. They sign the artist and then have a deal signed with their ticketing partner. They'll then sign contracts with venues for the given tour. The contracts between promoters and ticketing a

This is a great idea, and I love that it's based on power draw. It means it can be used for all sorts of things, like a TV or lamp turning on. I might experiment with something like this for my grandmother who lives alone.
