That's pretty interesting about Travis. Make is great because you can do as much or as little with it as you want, but it generally always improves organization.

I've generally had to only do this for more-or-less stand alone webservices, but there's nothing preventing making extra targets for setting up networks. To date, I'm still using docker compose for that. I started doing make

We use make for standardizing the way docker containers are built, pushed, tested, and run (debug and production modes). I even prefer it to docker-compose at this point, because it is more programmable.

What qualifies something as underrated? Is it just personal opinion or is it metric based?

I immediately thought of Blitz Basic too, which is how I got started programming. They recently took down the website for it, which made me sad, as I used to frequent the forum a lot.

This was my textbook for an Algorithms course in school. I recently had to crack it open again to brush up on algorithms before a tech interview; I think it helped.

CGI is slow because of the spin up time for individual processes for each request. FastCGI is fast because they run as one long running process that handles multiple requests. While plain CGI is a slower, the advantage is that you don&#x27

I'm in the early stages of a FaaS platform that uses CGI for the functions. As such, I have been collecting articles about general CGI development, and have them listed in my docs. If anyone is interested in writing large scale CGI app

API gateway costs on AWS seems like a massive "gotcha", especially considering how access via HTTP is super important for those worried about vendor lock in. This article was written by someone with a competing service, but I know

I use sourceforge for games, github for other projects, and bitbucket for work. It just happened that I had sourceforge first. For the features I use, they're all pretty much the same... The only "advanced" feature I use is T

"As with garlic, halfway measures can be worse than none at all." I like this sentiment a lot.

I've been on SourceForge a while, and I really like it. It always looked a little outdated, and there was the whole malware incident, but for hosting code with discussion boards and ticket systems, it does the job nicely. Obviously th

Very cool, thanks for sharing. The last part about just writing Swagger, Lambda, and a little config is very interesting. Do you worry about vendor lock in, which is coming up a lot on this comment section?

One thing I would like to see in articles like this are more concrete use cases for using serverless. The article begins talking about the concept as though you should write your entire app in serverless, and then in their case study, use

I'm actually working on this concept; a serverless platform utilizing the CGI standard. I call it bigCGI. It addresses a lot of the drawbacks another user mentioned: Vendor lock in: The CGI standard is supported by almost every serv

Confidence. I have two projects that I've been working on for years but always chicken out when it comes to actually putting them out there. Next year I'm going to learn how to dive in, be brave, and roll with the punches to hop

I'm a big fan of Ada, and I dabble with it whenever I can. All of the features you mention are great about it; just be warned that there's not a whole lot of learning material online.

I like keepassX, which is cross platform, offline, and simple to use.

This is a really good list. I like it better than the article because it brings marketing and finance into the equation. I've been starting to wonder if my side projects are viable businesses or just hobbies. This list suggests that

Looks like the native support for gopher in Firefox went away... I was just showing someone at work gopher earlier this month, so it must be recent. I am an Emacs user so I'll give Pancake a try.

by fuball63 9y ago
Looks nice, what are people using gopher for these days? I've read about the protocol and I like it conceptually, but didn't know if it was being used very often.

by fuball63 9y ago
I think the sentiment is also true for devops/infrastructure. I like to use the term "minimalistic" instead of simple, because I think some people associate simple with naive and slapshod.

We have similar issues. The MVP concept is taken to an extreme; proof of concepts are created, used, but never iterated on. I can relate to the last bit too; it also feels bad when you know people are looking down at your "lack of pro

I understand that libertarians believe the free market should determine winners and losers, and like any viewpoint, there's truth in it when not taken as an unwavering silver bullet with no exceptions. What bothers me so much about thi

I wrote my congressman and senators about this issue, both "libertarians". Here were their responses: 1) Its not the executive branch's job to legislate. 2) The ISP's know whats best for innovation and serving their cus

I use QOwnNotes to log my conversations, snippets, howtos, and daily work journal. I've seen immediate benefits, like productivity, focus, and knowledge.

I'm a programmer and I was inspired to start keeping a log from a talk I heard about using the scientific method for troubleshooting. My log is more of everything the article says not to do; a journal, notes from meetings, list of what

Earthworks are facinating to me. In Ohio there is the serpent mound, which aligns with star patterns during the solstice. Nearby is a native american fortress on a hilltop, with earthen walls and "doorways". What I always take awa
