Re:Haunted by My Own Projects on Thursday December 05, 2024 @05:01PM (#42333318)
Re: domains

You can run each project on its own subdomain on a shared domain. Example: app1.mysite.com app2.mysite.com. This can save you tens of dollars a year and save you some headaches. Probably not optimal for SEO, but for random projects it's pretty good.

I've used asdf for years, but recently switched to https://github.com/jdx/mise It's a drop-in replacement for asdf, but I prefer some of the nice features it has to offer.

I laughed at this. What a non-apology with no accountability.

Re:New acoustic attack steals data from keystrokes with 95% accuracy on Saturday August 05, 2023 @03:48PM (#37015690)
I don't use the qwerty layout, I use colemak. Likely this mitigates this for myself.

I've enjoyed using Dokku https://dokku.com/ It's very similar to heroku, but self-hosted. The pre-setup digitalocean option seems like a good way to try it out.

Here's a short video series that helped me get started: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLsClh15QqVh5lQ-_iiFYO...
