Simply because it is very limiting. Running your own site, even on cheap shared hosting, opens up lots of exciting possibilities. With a bit of PHP and SQLite you can build lots of cool stuff (just like before WordPress came and made everyt

It’s nice but only supports static content, so personally I would not count that as “running my own website”. Web hosting even container based VPS is super cheap - I would just go for that and have the extra freedom to do interesting things

Without knowing your OS: a text editor of some sort and an FTP/SFTP client. Then just get shared web hosting account - there are lots to chose from and they are super cheap these days. You can go a long way with that without having to

Sure, if you really want to know. To put it into perspective: I live a life most people can only dream of - I have good looks, excellent physical condition and health, a loving family, a partner who adores me, a very comfortable income and

I am using it that way an app I wrote for our company. I do have a custom bundler that will make a minified file for production environment but it just runs the source files through “terser”.

Agree 100% - logging is expensive, in terms of performance hit and storage, but it is totally worth it.

Prior to moving to software development, I worked 5 years in Support and consequently I have a murderous hatred of anyone writing software that is hard to debug and logging is a huge part of that. I was actually greatly inspired by a produc

Nothing cloud is relevant when your production network has no outbound access to the internet due to PCI. ;) Not sure about the other two (will check it out) but we have have apps in 4 programming languages across several teams. Structured

This has been my experience. The pieces are simple, but being to able to understand what is going on in the whole system is not. Detailed, quality structured logging is very important, sent to a central location that can be queried (e.g Ela

Oh yeah, that’s the one! :) “Nu Pogodi” is the one I had.

Yes, and this. It’s a lot easier to sell the idea of defence against a common enemy when the enemy is actually real.

Wonderful. What better way to drive home the message that the Russian government’s strategy of control over internet and Great Firewall makes total sense from the POV of national security.

Sure, but it helps and it is cheap. I also don't use a common subnet and enjoy uMatrix. Obscurity is a viable strategy as part of a layered defence. ;)

I’m not sure if they know very much about Kvass over there - at least my friends there did not. I make the stuff at home and it’s at least way better than the rubbish Kvass I can get here in London! ;)
