My workflow, part 1 | Carlos Becker I keep getting asked how my setup works, how I use tmux and nvim over ssh… all that good stuff. carlosbecker.com Carlos has a pretty sick setup here, I can relate to mostly, cept the macos part. My main critique is that I don’t think he gave window managers much chance on linux, and they just don’t work on MacOS/Windows. Most of the time I have a single, maximized window. I can relate to this. I should really make a full post about my experience with tiling window managers. TLDR, I came for tiling and I stayed for the workspaces. Multiple Displays An exception here could be streaming: having multiple displays can help preventing doxing yourself if you only share the screen of one of them. I only did stream like 3 times and that’s what I did, but I’m sure experienced streamers have better workflows (with or without multiple displays). Accurate, my home machine uses one monitor, and for work I use one monitor+laptop. I pair, screenshare, and present quite a bit at work, and its good to have one screen for sharing, and one for seeing things like the app you are sharing from (chat, cams, etc)

Using Netlify Analytics to Build a List of Popular Posts The other day, the wind blew and I decided to realign the design of my blog just a bit. One of the things I wanted to change was the content on my home page… blog.jim-nielsen.com This is a sick feature of Jim’s blog, I am really inspired by this. I am not sure how to do it for my own. I honestly think the easiest non locked in way would be to just use google search console results. It’s definitely a different way to think about it, but most of my traffic is coming from google search, so it would be a pretty good ballpark estimate.

I’m really excited about full-stack-fastapi-template, an amazing project by fastapi. It’s worth exploring! Full stack, modern web application template. Using FastAPI, React, SQLModel, PostgreSQL, Docker, GitHub Actions, automatic HTTPS and more.

I came across puter from HeyPuter, and it’s packed with great features and ideas. 🌐 The Internet OS! Free, Open-Source, and Self-Hostable.

605: Jim Nielsen on Subversive URLs, Blogging + AI, and Design Engineers Jim Nielsen joins us to about URLs and linking as the new subversive way to maintain the web, paying for news in Canada, should content creators be worried about AI, the case for design engineers, … ShopTalk · shoptalkshow.com An absolute fantastic episode about blogging, thinking about a web1.0 kind of world today, and what it means moving forward. Web 1.0 is robust, you own your own destiny, you own your data, you can do what you want. There is no platform to tell you what you can and cannot do. But the future web is stealing your data to build AI models, spam sites are duplicating your content and stealing your SEO. You may or may not care, but at the end whether you get traffic or now you own your web 1.0 sites.

Configure Liveness, Readiness and Startup Probes This page shows how to configure liveness, readiness and startup probes for containers. For more information about probes, see Liveness, Readiness and Startup Probes. Before you beginYou need to ha... Kubernetes · kubernetes.io What is the difference between health, liveness, readiness, and startup? This article does a great job at a full writeup description of how it works in kubernetes, here is my TLDR. health 200 OK - I’m still responding to requests health ERR - something happened and I cant respond to requests liveness 200 OK - I’m ready for more work liveness ERR - I’m still responding to requests, and i’m already working send requests to another pod, or scale up Z-pages These probes are commonly deployed at and endpoints. Why the z? z is a convention that comes from google for meta endpoints to reduce conflict with actual endpoints, and can be deployed to any application.

External Link stackoverflow.com The convention of “z-pages” comes from google and reduces the likelihood of collisions with application endpoints and keep the convention across all applications.

![[None]] I figured out the killer combination for python lsp servers, ruff and jedi! ruff does all of the diagnostics and formatting, then jedi handles all the code objects like go to definition and go to reference.

flake8-to-ruff Convert existing Flake8 configuration to Ruff. PyPI · pypi.org Underrated python library to on board ruff, or just use it on a project where its not the norm. ruff claims that its 99.9% compatible with black and when you read through the known differences they are clearly edge case bugs in black. See this page for more about the comparison to black https://docs.astral.sh/ruff/faq/#how-does-ruffs-formatter-compare-to-black oh and I just noticed that it is maintianed by Charlie, and comes straight out of astral.

![[None]] First I need to fetch my thoughts from the api, and put it in a local sqlite database using. Now that I have my posts in a local sqlite database I can use to enable full text search and populate the full text search on the post table using the title message and tags columns as search. Now I am ready to search my thoughts, which is a tiny blog format that I created mostly for leaving my own personal comment on web pages, so most of them have a link to some other online content, and their title is based on the authors title.

External Link screenshots.waylonwalker.com This is the best tree I have ever built in minecraft. It took at least 4 stacks of logs and leaves despite what it looks like. It is placed where Welscraft’s island in the hermitcraft season 10 seed, but on our own server we call lonecraft. We started this server a few weeks after hermitcraft season 10 started, and play on it a few times per week. It has a pretty successful day one iron farm that took us way more than one day to complete, and the farm behind this is our first ever villager driven farm. Somehow potatoes got cross contaminated and now its pumping out potatoes and some bread, but no carrots or beat roots. World Seed: 5103687417315433447

Formatting codes – Minecraft Wiki Formatting codes (also known as color codes) add color and modifications to text in-game. Minecraft Wiki · minecraft.wiki Minecraft MOTD and server names have formatting codes so that you can get colors, bold, underlined, italics, in your message of the day or server name. See the article for all the cods.

GitHub - jesseduffield/lazydocker: The lazier way to manage everything docker The lazier way to manage everything docker. Contribute to jesseduffield/lazydocker development by creating an account on GitHub. GitHub · github.com I’ve been using this for a few weeks now and it’s fantastic. It’s reminds me of lazygit, it gives a nice quick interface into the things I need and it just works. Yes I can git status to see what changed, then diff the files, then commit hunks, but lazygit can do that in just a few keystrokes. lazydocker does this for docker. It gives me a nice view into whats running, what’s eating up disk space, and the networks I have. And if I see I have a bunch of exited containers, there is a bulk command righ there to clean them up. tldr on steroids

Go is feeling more and more like something I could throw in my tool belt as a python dev. I really like that it’s garbage collected and has great error management. I am just not sure how to work it in without it being the main thing. The thing that is so cool is the ability to ship tiny pre-compiled binaries that just work, and the raw speed. these binaries just get up and working without any warm up. writing any cli in python I’m going to be using something like typer, and it takes half a second just to warm up, so even hello world cannot be faster than half a second.

Great example from Anthony showing how easy it is to practice building database orm models and playing with them in a repl. This is good practice even if you are in a big code base to be able to test and learn in a simplified code base that does not have a mountain of other code around atuh, permissions, security, and other complex things that come into real production code bases that might make it hard to focus on what you are trying to do. Note Anthony uses backref here, thats legacy, use back_populates on both parent and child.
