    How do deal with horizontal scaling or failovers in general? These are two of the reasons I am still unconvinced about using SQLite in production: - if only one process can write t…

    What about missing on the first 45 mins? Sometimes an unexpected snack makes its way into my belly, leaving behind an annoying dirty plate that needs some cleaning.

    This is precisely my worry. I do use tailscale but I have this itch in the back of my mind... I have a lot of sensitive and personal stuff in my machines, and even though it would …

    Received my paperd.ink display. I have no experience with programming directly on these kind of boards so I'm planning on building/documenting small projects to teach myself and ot…

    I love tailscale. Lately I have been migrating all my self-hosted stuff into a raspberry pi (instead of running a public instance in the cloud). It gives me a bit of piece of mind …

    Paperless + a custom telegram bot I wrote that receives any document I sent to it (usually taken with an app called Notebloc) The bot names and places the file in the right folder …

    One thing that has been surprisingly amazing: I got stretchable sheets. They are awesome. Won't use normal sheets again.

    I disagree. That's not enough these days. If you want to build anything mildly interesting, you need to have a solid background on software engineering (building data pipelines in …

    This. I mean, I floss at least twice or more a day. Like I don't understand how someone could be more than a day without flossing and not feel something is not right in their mouth…

    Has America swung that far to the right? Those demands sound to me pretty rational... How come are they hyper-leftists? What's your definition of left?
