The fact that her name and “member of congress” exist in the same sentence tells me all I need to know about the state of this union.
Small victories. 🤣
And yes, I have my own Pointy Haired Boss (Dilbert reference). It’s astounding how I can do the same thing at home that I do at work, and hate my job and love my hobby. 🤣🤯
I’m facinated by k8s, but don’t know enough about it, and haven’t really had a reason to play with it, since vertical scaling has been much simpler for the stuff I’m running.
Sounds like you’re working with some pretty high throughput services. Hopefully it’s still an interesting problem. I feel like things get much harder when they quit being interesting and become a chore.
Nobody starts out knowing it, and much of it is learned by trying, screwing up, and letting a friend explain it while laughing…
Along with a heaping dose of searching online.
You lose some of the flexibility with docker when you are persisting data (more complex to use Docker Swarm) but it’s pretty easy on a single node.
You can create volumes, which can be backed up, but I prefer to just map a path for each container to the host’s file system. It’s a one line add. Then I just have to back up one parent folder and all my persisted data is backed up.
I don’t know enough about it yet to know how it would, but that’s my lack. I have been using it on my laptop but I’m not sure how I would feel about using a distro with non-standard paths for everything when. I’m editing tons of config for nginx, etc over ssh.
A few thoughts after a year running front facing web services:
- containerized services really shouldn’t include SSL, and if the author insists, there should be a setting to turn it off.
- the number of containers that include a DB in the app container is disturbing. I don’t need six Postgres instances on the same server. This is what docker compose is for.
- why do people store binary files in Postgres? PicSur becomes an abomination after a few thousand files.
- Nostr relays are probably some of the best behaved containers I’ve played with.
🤷
I’ll look it up on fountain. 💪
Thx
Very much so. They have added new toys like a messenger which I don’t use. One of the best prices on encrypted storage.
Nice mega.nz no longer allows monthly subs via bitcoin.
You have to pay yearly or cough up a card.
Upload functionality on my PicSur instance has been disabled as I begin the migration of this service to new hardware.
