TIL AWS Lambda "cold-starts" take 1-3s for PHP frameworks. Tested with Laravel, Symfony and Bref.sh. Laravel Vapor is likely the same.

Somehow coffee stops me from feeling anxious. Most likely due to positive memories associated with it.
I think the lesson here is to put the right network (internal: true) in you compose config. geoff.tuxpup.com/posts/psa_do... #devops #cybersecurity #dockercompose #docker
PSA: Docker Will Edit Host-Based Firewall Rules For You :: Brain Dump — Geoff's Technical Notebook
Over the past week or so, I’ve been trying out using Docker to deploy a Django site on a VPS. My preferred setup for that is to have Caddy running on the host, not in any container, as a reverse...

I love servers. Infinite scalability and multi-regional setup is not needed until you hit the scale. And of course any setup would need backups.
Turns out low confidence can be solved by sharing experiences with another person who's on a similar path, and listening to a lot of music throughout the day.
IMO Sidebars are overrated. I now find it easier to start building web products with just a top menu 🙂 Usually in the beginning there aren't as many options to have the need for a sidebar, it'd feel clumsy.

Huh. #RubyOnRails is unable to start a session unless you write something to it? But what if I need an anonymous user id via `session.id`? A bit strange IMO. Compare this to Laravel, where you can get an empty session whenever you need it. Sounds like a contribution opportunity.
I have zero use-cases for OpenClaw / Clawdbot 👀 And it makes me feel weird.
Learning to sell is more important than programming. Now how do I write that convincing landing page copy... Any materials/book recommendations?
An easy way to get TypeScript interfaces from Laravel models. github.com/BasedCollect... (Made an up-to-date version of the og laravel-typescript package)

Self-host anything for 1$/mo: @scaleway.com, a French cloud provider has a special server instance - STARDUST1-S (1GB of RAM & 1VCPU). Normally, it would cost about $5/mo, but if you remove the "Public IPv4" and keep the "Public IPv6" option - it goes down to $1/mo. #hosting #servers
Spent a few days checking out Hotwire to see what it's about, but came to conclusion that Inertia.js is still the best option for modern, highly interactive user interfaces. Stimulus and server-side templates just won't do it for me.
The temptation to optimise a world-wide server response time and use a multi-region setup on a SaaS which haven't launched 🙈
TIL there's now a GitHub Copilot CLI, which is mostly like Claude Code. For 10$ it lets you use Opus 4.5 which is pretty neat. They call it "premium requests".
Next.js folks, what's the point of having client-side pages if you can't set the page title on them? A strange framework IMO.
I started 4 new projects in the past 3 weeks, moving on from one to the other, leaving each unfinished at 30-40% #buildinpublic #indiehacking

Folks who manage/have servers: surely you don't only store ssh key(s) on your main laptop in ~/.ssh? You'd at least make a backup somewhere like Bitwarden or 1Password? Curious about what your server access methods look like. #servers #cubersecurity #ssh #backups

Does anyone else think it's a bug? github.com/phoenixframe... #MyElixirStatus #PhoenixFramework #ElixirLang #Phoenix
Just realised Contexts in Phoenix are optional. In fact, one could customize the stock generators to get rid of them entirely. fly.io/phoenix-file... I don't think it makes sense to hide all of the app logic into an additional layer early in the product development (esp. crud) #MyElixirStatus
