Most definitely. Although I haven’t found an (F)OSS project that lets one easily ship [favorite harness SDK] to self-hosted platform yet. Which projects are standing out in this sp…

Quick tip when working with Claude Code and Git: When you're happy with an intermediate result, stage the changes by running `git add` (no commit). That makes it possible to always…

It seems they haven’t implemented MCP client features in Cursor CLI yet

This type of service is becoming increasingly prevalent among European energy suppliers for their residential customers. Beyond providing a revenue stream for consumers this model …

Totally irrelevant on the subject, but the screen recording in the article caught my attention: what tool does one use to create the screen recording with zoom and mouse tracking?

This reminds me of Winamp too. As a teenager I used to fiddle with the visualization editor for hours. Good fun!

Otel seems complicated because different observability vendors make implementing observability super easy with their proprietary SDK’s, agents and API’s. This is what Otel wants to…

This seems like a great tool! I like how it "simply" works by putting a view on top of the actual table. This concept is widely used in the data engineering world (in dbt). There m…

What a nice writeup. I've listened to jungle and related styles on and off over the years but I wasn't aware the music had played such a big role in 90's game music!

This is interesting! Turning the values into arrays is not suitable for our base-tables, but might be for the several materialization tables we run.

I see your point. Some of our measurements are counters and interpolate missing data via certain rules. We store these interpolations in a separate table with exactly the same form…

The schema is organized by how we need to query it which is mostly by fetching all measurements for an entire day or month. Querying statistics on those metrics is not often needed…

Good observation. The updates are as much HOT-updates as possible. I wasn't familiar with BRIN-indexes before, so I have to look into that. At first glance our solution follows a s…

Glad you asked! This system contains measurements and state of physical devices (time series). It’s designed for both heavy write and read, with slight emphasis on write. Each tabl…

It’s really something you don’t know how this applies to your Postgres DB, until you run into a situation where you do. The author explains this very well, it’s a good read! I’ve l…

Yes! Enthusiasm is contagious. Share the fun.

Once added this to a team’s shared account: >When responding to IT or programming questions, respond in UK slang language, Ali G style but safe for work. Took them a few hours to n…

Where I work we’ve set up OpenTelemetry SDK in the applications to expose traces, logs and metrics. Grafana agent as OTEL collector on the application hosts, Grafana Tempo as backe…

Similar though! It was on PC, either downloaded from Tucows or from one of these shareware discs they sold at computer fairs.

This is awesome, can’t wait to play TH again. Totally forgot about this game, but i remember playing a demo version of the original game. The game was good fun. What impressed me m…

My setup extends on this: the pulumi stack creates ECR repo, IAM user+access token, adds credentials and ECR details to GitHub actions secrets, and GitHub actions builds tags and p…

There are more than a few resource types lacking import examples/details in the docs. Other than that, for most resources I use the docs are pretty good.

Interesting developments in this space. So how does this work in practice? Do I feed it an ISO? Are Steam games supported?

I've been using mail in a box since 2016 for a handful of personal domains. It's easy to setup and very low maintenance. Backups are solid too. Just make sure your hosting package/…
