It's become apparent to me recently that I am more of an outlier than the norm when it comes to writing markdown
This is shocking to me but from my experience a lot of dev's do not know markdown well
Anyone used AWS workspaces before? Or similar?
Interested to learn more tbh. Workspaces is expensive
My desktop monitors started playing up so I rebooted. Now it wont even POST
Checked RAM, GPU, PSU voltages and different monitors
I'm sort of lost, hoping its the mobo which I can pick up tomorrow 🙏
Tinkering with a new idea. Go, twillio and react. Haven't really used twillio before so this should be fun
Users will call and leave messages which we'll do stuff with. Testbed for a large project to support another businesses expansion
Got that new idea excitement again
Happy Australia day everyone 🇦🇺🇦🇺
Gotta look into Astro sometime. Thank you
Ah, yeah thats true. I guess if I were to do it id just have to monkey around with the html so it matches the jsx from the rest of the app. But doable! Im very bullish on PB - another positive going for it
This is good food for thought about adding a blog or articles page to an existing PB project. I guess the negative is it wont be statically rendered when done this way (using react), if my mental model is correct.
Just did a typing test at monkeytype at hit 65wpm
Nothing to write home about but I'm happy with it! Learning touch typing was a worthy investment and I think all tech workers should be able to do it
PocketBase is a great tool for building out sqlite Go backends
Auth, S3, client libraries, rate limiting and more all built in
IMO its THE best go tool for prototyping or even building out full fledged system such as Beszel
I'm really into PocketBase at the moment and was amazed to see this great server monitoring tool is using it as their backend. Awesome work

Wrote a short piece on how I use Github actions, Go and Hugo to automatically rebuild my static site when I create new entries in my zettelkasten. Includes how I write my notes with my custom CLI tool

When it comes to naming nothing will be top this terrible, cutesy, bordering on unprofessional kubernetes release name. So it could be worse, try saying this!

I really dislike "code names" for services or functions. Be descriptive. I have enough cognitive load already!
When I joined the army, they taught you the map and compass before you were allowed a GPS
After that you primarily used the GPS but I guarantee you no one can navigate *effectively* without learning the map and compass first
Same with AI
Its not a replacement for skill
Put self hosted umami analytics on my blog. Its really cool being able to track if users are clicking between pages - really enjoying the vanity metrics too
Hosting it on my own domain should mean I get more data as my site wont be on a block list
Having some odd issues with rabbitmq throughput at work lately. We're seeing significant slow downs in msg processing - inbound mostly. Really flappy, 17k p/s then dropping to 400 p/s an hour later
We have a lot of queues, theres many possible bottlenecks
Anyone had similar issues? On AWS
Githubs outage broke my coolify deployments today
I think we take for granted something so important, and forget that it can have outages too - just like our own products and applications
Upgrading my hugo site from v105 to v136 tonight proved to be a bit punishing
I do a few custom things to build pages, and deprecating getJSON caused some headaches
Namely, I wasnt using an assets folder to store my custom json files. The getJSON replacement, resources.Get, requires this to work
Magical knowledge contained in the docs, and tutorials though
Its meant to represent the Zettelkasten method but in reality it should probably just be called "notes". My zet CLI allows me to search through old zets which is what zettelkasten is all about. I write these slips for my own future reference and its proven to be really helpful
Most of my entries are rants haha. I havent tried turso yet but maybe I should. Someone dropped a video about turso with pocketbase recently too.
My zets
danielms.site/zet/
Wrote a go app that will fetch all the zets from their github repo, and then builds a page per zet.
I like this idea. I write "zet" notes using a CLI I wrote which eventually via GH actions gets appended to a log on my hugo blog. It works decently but has a few moving parts
Linkding stores links I want to keep but maybe I should be putting them on my blog too. Might 'tee' them to both. Love it
I agree but I since learnt that the what I would consider odd layout aligns with 1234567 representing month, day, hour, minute, second year, timezone
Hardest part is remember that its US and month comes first (bizzare)
My thoughts on AWS captured in a single picture
Also, echo your point that coolify is overwhelming at first. I watched this Syntax video and after that it took me probably 30mins to get fairly comfortable with it. Not fully migrated yet by loving it so far!
syntax.fm/videos/cj-sy...
Very similar circumstances. Im migrating from caprover. FWIW over several years running a PG instance on CR I never had issues. Though I never exercised any disaster recovery TBH - side projects
My rookie error that was the catalyst for switching
danielms.site/zet/2025/mig...
What was it in Coolify that caused issues? Ive just migrated over to it
Thats where I feel sometimes I stop the search to early - worrying about billing time. Though sometimes it might just be me blocking myself needlessly
