    Uff, I had no idea that Postgres v15 introduced WAL_LOG and changed the defaults from FILE_COPY. For (parallel CI) test envs, it make so much sense to switch back to the FILE_COPY …

    Made the switch to self-hosted https://mailu.io (on k8s) 2 years ago when Gandi announced the deprecation of their free plan. Happy after IP was off most blocklists, but setup was …

    Happy to hear that! When it comes to testing services that depend on PostgreSQL, this is still my preferred solution. https://github.com/allaboutapps/integresql disclaimer: author

    No and we are happily using it within our overcommitted cluster (combination of shared and dedicated nodepools). We are a small team of 5 infrastructure engineers and previously ma…

    I really tried to like netbird, but their current hard dependency on auth0 (also when selfhosting) unfortuantly put me off. Your statements regarding NAT punching are on the other …

    I really love tailscale for my private network. Nevertheless, I still hope they will revisit support for proper linux kernel wireguard sometime in the near future. This would allow…

    I can confirm that goaccess databases works great for incrementally regenerating these HTML reports. We currently pipe all logs from all our ingress-nginx LBs every 15 minutes (and…

    Author here, your feedback is highly appreciated. Providing better documentation for the RESTful JSON endpoints of this project is our next top priority. Seems like it would be imp…

    Yes, monolithic Go RESTful JSON API services - we currently depend on go-swagger, SQLBoiler (PostgreSQL) and echo. Workflow: we use VSCode with devContainers (docker-compose local …

    yep, currently it forces our engineers to use VS Code or a terminal-based setup (or GitHub Codespaces). Hopefully Goland / IntelliJ catches up in this year...

    Can only second this, we use a VSCode devContainer-based setup in all of our projects and even migrate our legacy projects to it (software agency). Here's our current base go templ…

    Highly appreciated hint (original author). Note that I haven't updated this project in ~4 years and it's still spinning on Heroku's free tier, haven't spend a penny for the API hos…

    I'm generally not a fan of emulating database behavior through a mocking layer while testing/implementing. Even minor version changes of PostgreSQL plus it's extensions (e.g. PostG…
