great poll of git questions
poll: did you know that in a git merge conflict, the order of the code is different when you do a merge/rebase?

kubeseal is a pretty simple to get started with way to manage secrets such that they can be stored in a git repo and be picked up by your continuous delivery service.
Sealed Secrets provides declarative Kubernetes Secret Management in a secure way. Since the Sealed Secrets are encrypted, they can be safely stored in a code repository. This enables an easy to implement GitOps flow that is very popular among the OSS community.
In my homelab kubernetes cluster I am using kubeseal to encrypt secrets. I have been using it successfully for a few months now wtih great success. It allows me to commit all of my secrets manifests to git with out risk of leaking secrets.
You see kubeseal encrypts your secrets with a private key only stored in your cluster, so only the cluster itself can decrypt them using the kubeseal controller.

Installation happens in two steps. You need the kubernetes controller and the client side cli to create a sealed secret.

Just starred codemirror-codeium by val-town. It’s an exciting project with a lot to offer.
Codeium code completion integration for CodeMirror 6
Great episode covering a seemingly simple topic. What I really benefitted from was hearing all the different use cases, from logging, debugging, to a/b testing, caching, and auth. I hadn’t even thought of it being applied to a router. I thought of it being applied for an entire application. This seems very useful for things like an admin router, all routes would need to have the admin role to get in.

I’ve been using these decorators to modify the behavior of specific routes. It will do things like 404 admin only routes in a way that looks just like fastapi’s default, or only allow certain roles into the route, or redirect unauthenticated users to login.
After listening to yesterday’s syntaxfm I’m now really thinking about middleware and the benefits it might have. middleware would make it easy to apply things like admin to an entire admin router, so you wont forget it on any one admin route. It will look cleaner as the admin checker is only applied once per router, not once per route.
Huh, so this is just built right into the chrome cli.

jinja’s url_for in fastapi does not account for https by default, there is probably a better way, but this is a way that allows me to configure when I use http vs https.
Damn are one time paid and have it apps making a comeback? Seems like the perfect thing to have someone else automate and not pay a subscription for.
Genius Idea Cassidy!!
Now what do you call this, its not software as a service, is this just sofware?

I switched from a 60% vortex pok3r to a 40% corne June, 2021. I can relate to a lot of what Carlos talks about here. I think going from 60%-40% made my journey harder than it needed to be. There’s no going back now, but it took me a really long time to be able to hit all of the numbers and symbols, just figuring out how to do the layout was hard there’s not much space.
I didn’t touch type. I never really used my pinkies, except maybe for ESC, Shift, CTRL, Backspace et al.
I can relate to this, my typing habits were terrible. Shortly before going split ortho I worked on my speed with lots, and lots of practice on keybr and monkeytype. I took my speed from 35wpm to 80wpm with a few months of steady practice. This is one of the best things I did for myself.
Once I got split it dropped down to single digits and slowly rose back up to 80, just barely breaking my PB on monkeytype.

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).

strawberry-sqlalchemy by strawberry-graphql is a game-changer in its space. Excited to see how it evolves.

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.
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.
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
