I am sick of #containers taking over my #web deployments! For once, let's do it raw with #caddy and #rsync 💪

It's been more than a month since I am using #niri multi file configuration. (includes)

You can change chunks of your configuration just by changing some symlinks.

And Yes! you can do

You don't need to use #nginx nor #docker to deploy your static websites.

Just know that you can keep it simple, safe and secure without the complex config and heavy unpractical images.

I am going backward too, and cutting some loose fat with this rusty #webserver

I am currently abusing the #rust "matching pattern" where an "if else" would be enough.
Do you have the same illness?

As we are locked out of the #nixos binary cache,
Making an emergency one just rose on my todo list.

What should I use?
nix-serve or Attic, or other?

He had a split keyboard all along!
Is it what it takes to be the one?

#VitePress was a good help but I like my documentation websites to be available even without #javascript enabled.

I am now on a crusade to rewrite everything with
#zola + #pug + #tailwindcss
and a bit of #vue or #svelte but only where it is needed.

A couple of #Mastodon tweaks I have to look into over the next couple of months:

An alternative to our #s3 compatible storage backend, #minio. Their licensing and approach to open source it getting weird, and I hear #garage is better and faster. Also MinIO decided to pull the administrative web […]

Does this pattern seems crazy to you? 😨
Or should I go the *confirmation prompt* route?!

- Bug fix: inexistent privilege user

The default #vm user is now a sudoer and password is not required anymore.

- Feat: minimalist #ssh config

The default user is now "" instead of the generic "anon", so you can ssh into your machine with fewer configuration:

Who can you blame for the bugs in your code? knowing that:

- #git remembers everything.
- #rust compiler helps you like no teacher ever did.
- you are the only contributor ever since.

Building software pushes you to reflect on your choices and gives you the opportunity to grow accordingly […]

Can't advocate enough for sops-nix for secret sharing under #nixos! 🤐

It takes some times to understand at first.
You may go back and forth on the doc.

But you'll be grateful for the overall simplicity it provides.

Back pain,
Neck pain,
Wrist pain,
Huge chances the keyboard is at fault!

Should you switch keyboard layout? 🤔

New pattern shamefully unlocked! 🏆

All this time and I kept using
".unwrap()" in my async blocks 🐒

Whereas specifying the *return type* allows you to propagate errors with "?" 😯

async {
my_func()?;
Result::<(),std::io::Error>::Ok(())
}

What other great patterns did I just miss along the […]

Programming is harsh,
frustrating.
You can be stuck an a problem for days to the point you can't push anymore.
You're giving up.
But if you take your time,
one step after another,
and get through...
you'll look back and see that you've built something much more valuable than those few lines of […]
