    log2fluent is a command line tool (written in Go) that sends application logs to a Fluent server (e.g. Fluent Bit, Fluentd) via the Fluent Forward Protocol as structured log data. …

    There's a lot of inconvenient truths one needs to accept if they want to advocate for widespread nuclear energy. Specifically, there are very real nuclear proliferation concerns wh…

    This research is nearly two years old and I haven't found any consumer devices specifically made for this purpose yet, unfortunately. I'm sort of wary of buying random LEDs adverti…

    Perfect succinct response. It is a 100% viable workaround.

    Returning a 429 would not just to hope that the Go proxy would obey the response, but rather it would significantly reduce the workload the server has to do when it gets a request …

    Seiko 5 is probably the cheapest, worthwhile mechanical watch. You can always get cheap Chinese and Russian watches as well but they will be of lesser quality and reliability than …

    Analog vs digital! I feel similar to you. There's a certain feeling with analog/mechanical instruments that is hard to replicate. That being said, I think there is something fascin…

    I love this. As a watch enthusiast myself, it's always great to see the history of watches and how their internals came to be. For anybody interested, there's also an awesome video…

    It is somewhat slower if you are looking up records by key. You still need an index to do that, and non-integer PKs such as UUIDs can be twice as large as the integer alternative, …

    In a database like MySQL where a clustered index exists for the primary key, or even a NoSQL DB like DynamoDB, it often makes sense to expose some version of the PK to the public i…

    Encrypt them on the backend before exposing them to the public. Decrypt in the backed on access. See https://hashids.org/

    The hashids documentation is pretty explicit about it not being secure. It says verbatim: > Do you have a question or comment that involves "security" and "hashids" in the same sen…

    I was going to recommend this. No reason to use a special data type for the ID in your database unless you have some sort of actual constraints (like a 64 bit limit or something). …

    It is kind of perplexing that AWS dogfoods its own status page. I remember during the massive S3 outage a few years ago that their status page remained green almost the entire time…

    Hardware is defined by physics. I can write code that is logically the same no matter what hardware it's running on. Of course, some software has to take the hardware it is intende…

    I would say logistics is outside the realm of the software itself, but rather with the organization. It's a valid point, but somewhat tangential to what Fowler is trying to say her…
