[1] Looks like a great start to a rules file for fastapi [2]. - Place the happy path last in the function for improved readability. I have never heard anyone say this. It feels weird to me.

Generate Custom .cursorrules for Your Project Based on Community Examples expert led courses for front-end web developers and teams that want to level up through straightforward and concise lessons on the most useful tools available. egghead · egghead.io [1] Really interesting way to generate a rules file for agentic workflows based on your current repo. John uses gitingest here, looks like a fantastic tool, but probably not useful for most private repos. I’m sure you can replicate the same thing in a private repo wtih a small amount of effort the few times you need to do it. gitingest looks like a great way to pull in some extra context for some open source dependencies that you have though.

Releases · WaylonWalker/nvim-manager manage dotfiles with nvim_appname. Contribute to WaylonWalker/nvim-manager development by creating an account on GitHub. GitHub · github.com [1] First release of nvim-manager is out. Your dotfiles change a lot, sometimes it’s hard to manage all of the places you have installed them and potentially made hand edits to. nvim-manager allows you to easily make static releases of your dotfiles, and keep your nvim install from breaking by leveraging NVIM_APPNAME and pinned releases of your dotfiles stored in ~/.config. In this directory you might have many nvim configurations installed, nvim-manager automates the process of installing and updating from your dotfiles, while keeping previous pinned versions untouched.

Owning It · Matthias Ott Owning your content and platform means true independence on the web. Why it matters more than ever for creators. Matthias Ott – Web Design Engineer · matthiasott.com [1] I can say I had the same kind of feelings when I first saw something called “Own Your Web” being run in Buttondown. I totally get it. It takes time and effort to build your own stuff, email sending is hard, not done right ends you in the spam folder. There is something about the name though that I think needs to set an example and self host [2] as much as it possibly can. The changelog has covered this several times, do they need to go to the crazy lengths they do to run their site, no probably not, but it keeps them in the loop. They are using the tech they talk about in a very real and production critical way to run the show. Cant wait to see more from ownyourweb.site Note This post is a thought [3].

- Gyroscope better than a mouse?? Nerd nest really sells how having two gyros in the way they have done for noise cancelling changes the game on it, and makes it a contender to replace a mouse. It really makes me want to try it. I love how repairable this controller looks. I’ve got to imagine that the fact that it comes as a kit, and all the parts are available that this hits S tier repairability. My current controller of choice is a PS5 and I’ve had stick issues I wish I could fix. No analog triggers, I’m out. Maybe they will make it an option in the future idk. I don’t play shooters where I need a hair trigger, this won’t work on session or driving games. micro usb, seriously, that kinda kills it for me too. edit I looked on their website and they have usb c in the latest version Note This post is a thought [1].

Realign I just popped out a realign of the ol’ personal website. I only say realign as I didn’t rethink every single detail of the thing. I’d say probably 40% of the original HTML and CSS… Chris Coyier · chriscoyier.net [1] Chris Coyier had a small re-align on his site, some good nuggets in here. I like the idea of having a photo of myself prominently on the site, so you know who you’re dealing with here. I really like this after thinking about it and I think I am going to make sure I get my face back on my posts. I do have my 8bit style pixel art image of me that I use on social media, but no real picture. I feel like a lot of people redesign their entire website when it’s time to update to the latest list of social networks and I’m no different. Once you touch it you gotta keep going. I can totally relate to this, once you open the thing, you get the build tools greased up, and your confidence high that re-deploying isn’t going to mess something up, I tend to start digging in to other things.

About Harry Roberts – CSS Wizardry csswizardry.com [1] I’ve only recently learned what colophon means, and I really like to read through site that use it. If you don’t know its about how the site is built. I’ve always liked peeking under the hood of things to understand how they work, it’s what turned me towards an engineering degree. I love how he mentions that he chose the name when he was 17 and he is stuck with it. I particularly like the name, it has something special to it. Hats off to you for doing something that has lasted so long for you. I fully understand though, I have projects that I made a year ago that I think why did I name it that. At the same time when I try to think of a name I end up with the I don’t have anything good and I’d rather build the thing so fuck it, its going to be what it is. Note This post is a thought [2].

slow nfs performance

I’m running a two node k3s cluster at home, I thought I could simply mount an nfs share on each worker node, and essentially have the same storage accross all nodes. I’m already learning why this is not reccommended. [1] Slow # [2] I’ve been running some cronjobs and argo workflows on the second node for awhile, these are things that run in the background and I don’t care if they take a bit longer to keep my master node freed up for more critical work. I just started trying to build this site in a cronjob, It was taking 20 minutes to build, and something I noticed was that markata was taking minutes to run glob ( search for files ), normally this happens in a few ms and I never notice this step. [3] I just moved into the master node and the results were wild at ~30x faster Permissions # [4] I have seen where you can get diffent permissions on the nfs share based on user id. Since I’m homelabbing here I only have one user per machine. As you step into enterprise level VMs wi...

- Theo does a fantastic history of serverless here. Kubernetes shit # [1] Theo can’t have an infra video without shitting on k8s. Specifically people who have never touched k8s pushing fear of k8s to large audiences of people who have never touched k8s. If you are a webdev who solely lives in webdev space and never touches as much as a dockerfile listen to him. If you touch infra at all try it before you take his opinion at face value. [2] Serverless shines in high variance # [3] If you plan on having traffic spikes 10x your regular traffic for something like black friday, serverless might be right for your use case. stateless programming # [4] He argues that targeting a stateless deployment of serverless leads to better code. I’d like to see more examples here. Maybe most of the code bases I work on already do this. I’ve never targeted a serverless deployment, but I’ve targeted horizontally scaled deployments many times and they feel like they have the same targets. For instance if I spin up 8 pods for my application or uvicorn with 3 workers I have to target statelessness, all of the state must live in the database and cannot live in memory. Even if I target 1 instanc...

- Lane from boot.dev madde this fantastic video about serving files on the internet. It has me wondering if I need to rethink a few of my things that I have built. I have a few things I am serving media from, but I have very aggressive cloudflare cache rules on them, so each file should only be uploaded about once per year. My problem going straight out of minio right now is how do i set headers for cache control on it. If I can’t set the cache control and everything is coming out of minio this does not solve my problems. --- I went back and played with presigned urls and you can in fact control and set response headers, this is definitely the way and I have been wrong.

The beautiful sentence that is the web A metaphor for the building blocks of web development. cassidoo.co [1] Nicely worded Cassidy! Javascript can be too much, it can bog down low powered devices, we can ship so much that its untenable on poor connections. It can be argued that its a bad language and putting it on the server is a mistake, but it brings sites to life. It makes it possible to extend the static nature of html [2]/css with just a little special spice only your site needs. I’d add to the argument that a lot of js should go away over time. Over time libraries such as jquery have fallen out of use, not because they are bad, or have been replaced by new libraries, but because the browser has adopted most of the functionality that jquery brought. As a primarily python dev I’d really like to see htmx [3] die a very similar graceful death. There have been several iterations on this idea, and the crux of it is very similar, give the ability to use HTTP verbs right inside html with some instruction of when to apply them and what to apply them to. No js should not go away, it never will, we will always find new patterns that the browser should take, sites will always n...

The work on atuin [1] by atuinsh [2]. ✨ Magical shell history References: [1]: https://github.com/atuinsh/atuin [2]: https://github.com/atuinsh
Ellie Huxtable (@ellie.wtf) Atuin v18.4 is out now! Including atuin wrapped, your year in shell history 🐢 thanks @daveeddy.com for the suggestion! Bluesky Social · bsky.app [1] Atuin v18.4 is out with an atuin wrapped command. Here’s Ellie’s Wrapped. [2] This is a pretty sick command, I’ve only been using Atuin about as long as I’ve been on bazzite, so maybe 4 months, but here is my wrapped. [3] Comparing to Ellie, I’m surprised that I even have 126 package related commands, being on an immutable distro most of my packages come from the container, I don’t need to run packaging commands. My cd is also super low, I use tmux sessions to take me where I need to be most of the time, which is a project’s root directory, It’s pretty rare to see me outside of a project root directory. I’d venture to guess that nvim would be higher if it didn’t auto start on every tmux session as well. Note This post is a thought [4].

- Red Hat has donated the whole open alternative to docker to the CNCF, the hosts weigh in with thier opinions all being pretty positive as they seem to be a legitimate donation and not dumping crap on open source. - podman - podman-desktop - buildah - compose-fs - podman - bootc - scopio Personally I’ve been running podman exclusively at home since switching to Bazzite in August. I’d like to use buildah in ci. I gave it a try, but was unable to swap out my use of kaniko for buildah, I will get there, but it was not quite as drop in as I wanted.

- Holy shit these AGI models are incredibly expensive to run, require lots of wild hardware that there is not enough to go around, and requires shit tons of power to run. Now more than ever is time to distinguish yourself with deep expertise, jack of all trades is being eaten by ai. People with deep expertise are getting a jack of all trades bump from ai, not o3, just the regular stuff. Note This post is a thought [1].

setting up ucore-zfs

I just setup my oldest hardware on the newest hotest server distro ucore-zfs. This is a gateway FX6860 manufactured in 2010. Immutable is the future # [1] My current boot log shows that I first started daily driving bazzite back in August 2024. I’ve been hapily using it since my arch install was plaugued with a crippling display driver error, or something that would lock the display for minutes every 30s or so, it became unusable. I switched because this is what I put my son on and it was working great for him. waylon@razorcrest:~$ journalctl --list-boots IDX BOOT ID FIRST ENTRY LAST ENTRY -19 7e6e154d2609407da24fa12814eadbd7 Thu 2024-08-29 16:15:15 CDT Thu 2024-08-29 17:37:25 CDT Four months later and I am really loving the immutable distro experience. My base system gets fresh reliable updates, and I barely install anything directly on it, a handful of things are snaps or flatpaks from the discover store, but my main workflow is now in distrobox.

- Theo weighing in on the 2025 job market. It’s no 2018 out there right now, the ratio of jobs to engineers in the market has flipped big time. Theo as usual really focuses on community, being in a community, and being a good citizen. At the end of the video Theo weighs in on his experience hiring, and generally it starts with we need someone to do x does anyone know someone, then goes to a more formal internal post, then more formally asking internally does anyone know someone, then maybe to his community, and if he really still needs the person it might become an external post. These days there are so many good engineers on the market that very few good jobs actually get a posting for in his opinion. Note This post is a thought [1].
