Agreed, OpenWRT is for something with limited resources like an OTS router.

I didn’t for the longest time but now I use Traefik for this. It can automatically add services (i.e. containers) to it’s routing list so the overhead is low and since I also run openwrt on my router I setup *. localhost to point to 127.0.0.1 so I don’t have to remember what ports I’m using for which service (e.g. jellyfin.localhost). You can also setup DNS entries using something like PiHole.

I put the sample template (https://yacht.sh/docs/Templates/Templates/) into a file named docker-compose.yml and Docker said the syntax was invalid. Are you saying I can give Yacht a compose file and it’s cool with it?

Used it for a bit but I didn’t like how you have to deploy things from templates which are basically compose files that don’t like like compose files.

This is the kind of AI stuff that really annoys me. Looking at one of the mutation examples I didn’t see anything that wouldn’t normally be tested by a typical mutation tool. You took a simple, idempotent process and you got an llm to do it slower, less accurately, and using more resources.

If you wanted to marry the two in a new and possibly useful fashion I would say use an llm to analyze the results of a standard mutation test and give guidance on what issues should be acted upon first. An off-by-one calculation could mean somebody loses a million dollars or it could mean a button is grayed out. Standard mutation tools don’t give you that context.

Other than the low chance of you being targeted I would say only expose your services through something like Wireguard. Other than the port being open attackers won’t know what it’s for. Wireguard doesn’t respond if you don’t immediately authenticate.

There’s a little overlap with things like Terraform but it’s not as bad as if they bought the companies that owned Chef or Puppet.

Can’t believe that’s gone through. They took JBoss when they bought RedHat so now it doesn’t have to compete with Websphere and when they bought HashiCorp Openshift doesn’t have to compete with Nomad. At this rate they’ll buy CyberArk and then that’s no more competition with Vault.

Even in this scenario it’s feasible for standards to change. ISBN-15 becomes a thing and suddenly you have books that never get an ISBN-13 so your primary key constraints cause an error for trying to insert a null. Granted, you can see a lot of these changes coming but again, they come on a schedule you don’t control.

Got hands on experience with this. Wasn’t my design choice but I inherited an app with a database where one of the keys was tied to a completely separate database. I mean at the time it probably made sense but the most unlikely of scenarios actually happened: that other database, the one I had zero control over, was migrated to a new platform. All of those keys were synthetic so of course they were like, “Meh, why we gotta keep the old keys?” So post-migration my app becomes basically useless and I spent 6 hours writing migration code, some of it on off hours, to fix my data.

So it’s questionable whether a foreign key of a completely different system is a natural key, but at the very least never use a key YOU don’t control.

If OP has a thrift store nearby it’s pretty likely they can get both for under $30.

Nah, my company still uses Java but an open source version (Eclipse Temurin). We haven’t used Oracle Java in like 4 years.

One of the hardest issues to troubleshoot is a bad assumption. Be glad you only spent 2 hours on this.

One of the reasons I think JS gets a lot of hate is the tooling is a bit of a mess. If you go that route I encourage you to generate or find a barebones project to start from. Getting that very first “Hello World” app to run can be a massive pain in the ass.

I also don’t think the requirement to a desktop app and website in the same language is being fair. It’s definitely possible but different languages have different strengths. It shouldn’t make your brain explode to deal with more than one language and I think you could benefit from a shift in mindset. When I’m in JS world I know l I’ve gotta let go of performance and security desires (i.e. JS in the browser is a “clear box” and users can fully control it). When I’m in Java I know those things are highly important but also to not stress about “presentation”.

Surely AI makes them so efficient they’re free to spend more time organizing a union right? /s

This is utterly disgusting. I feel like Leeloo in The Fifth Element learning about War for the first time.

While explaining BTRFS I’ve seen ChatGPT contradict itself in the middle of a paragraph. Then when I call it out it apologizes and then contradicts itself again with slightly different verbiage.

We’ve used the “scaled” approach for a whilen and we make tags to release. Every time we have a long-lived branch that isn’t main/master something gets fucked up or we spend an extra few days just to reconcile the conflicts. Luckily we’re service based so supporting multiple versions of a product is very rare.

DebOps my dude.

In a similar situation. I was using Open Media Vault but it has some networking bug that I just can’t nail down or work around. I have to manually fix the networking every time it breaks. Otherwise I barely used OMV features and did most things through Docker. I’ll be switching to Diet Pi and probably Ansible unless I feel like learning Puppet.
