Nice example of adding a healthcheck to fastapi, and integrating it with docker. Don’t forget to include curl in the install, nice touch.

new versions of just now come with color variables already set.

I found this nugget in thechangelogs justfile, it lets you add color to your justfile with variables quite easily.

# https://linux.101hacks.com/ps1-examples/prompt-color-using-tput/ _BOLD := "$(tput bold)" _RESET := "$(tput sgr0)" _BLACK := "$(tput bold)$(tput setaf 0)" _RED := "$(tput bold)$(tput setaf 1)" _GREEN := "$(tput bold)$(tput setaf 2)" _YELLOW := "$(tput bold)$(tput setaf 3)" _BLUE := "$(tput bold)$(tput setaf 4)" _MAGENTA := "$(tput bold)$(tput setaf 5)" _CYAN := "$(tput bold)$(tput setaf 6)" _WHITE := "$(tput bold)$(tput setaf 7)" _BLACKB := "$(tput bold)$(tput setab 0)" _REDB := "$(tput setab 1)$(tput setaf 0)" _GREENB := "$(tput setab 2)$(tput setaf 0)" _YELLOWB := "$(tput setab 3)$(tput setaf 0)" _BLUEB := "$(tput setab 4)$(tput setaf 0)" _MAGENTAB := "$(tput setab 5)$(tput setaf 0)" _CYANB := "$(tput setab 6)$(tput setaf 0)" _WHITEB := "$(tput setab 7)$(tput setaf 0)"

Usage

Hurl was mentioned by @gerhard on the latest changelog and Friends. Looks like a feature rich easy to use testing tool that is tested via what looks like a config file.

Hurl is a command line tool that runs HTTP requests defined in a simple plain text format. It can chain requests, capture values and evaluate queries on headers and body response. Hurl is very versatile: it can be used for both fetching data and testing HTTP sessions. Hurl makes it easy to work with HTML content, REST / SOAP / GraphQL APIs, or any...

Simple, modern and high performance file watching and code reload in python.

For some reason the ublue ecosystem does not prompt you to set your hostname on install and you get a hostname like bazzite showing up. Looks like this is the fix.

hostnamectl –static hostname babyblue-aurora

Great examples for working with s3 buckets with ansible.

On reboot of my opnsense router it did not tailscale up. I’m not sure if a key expired or what happened. The fix was to first enable ssh, then ssh in and run tailscale up.

In opnsense System > Settings > Administration > Secure Shell > Enable Secure Shell

ssh <opnsense ip> 8 # to select shell tailscale up

Follow the link to log in.

now uncheck secure shell to lock down the opnsense machine.

This guy fit 2 3.5" drives and an sdd in a dell 7050 SFF. It looks tight, and there it probably not much airflow running in it, but its an impressive project.

I tried this fix on my secretlabs chair, but unfortunately it did nothing for me. Mine ended up being an issue in the tilt mechanism and not the hydraulic piston. I greased the crap out of it, it can only help the longevity. I did notice that the two washers on either side of my bearing were quite worn in.

This is definitely happening to my secretlabs chair. I did the fix this morning, its still not perfect, but it’s better now than it has been in a long time. Mine use to be so bad that it would pop and creak every time I sat down or moved the smallest bit. It’s now quiet through the mid range of its motion with the occasional pop when I sit down.

switching cloud providers, theres no easy way. K8s was supposed to get us there, haha, the deep integrations with each vendor just keep locking us in

Dang, love this guys branding. Hooks to get stuff offDaBench, what a freaking cool name.

This is a really amazing documentary of argocd. I got into k8s pretty late in the game. Which is pretty typical for me. As I went to use k8s for the first time i was using workflows, then cd. both of these tools had a level of polish that made them seem like they had been there forever and not quite as young as they actually are.

I thought it was interesting how they focused on how the name must be two syllables or less, start with a or b, logo needs to be cutesy funny and recognizable seemed interesting, but puts them at the top of lists and makes them look like they’ve been there forever.

bootc is the underlying technology that enables OS’s like bazzite, and Aurora from the uBlue ecosystem.

A new completion plugin that I might give a try. Readme makes it sound like its built on some fast teck that allows them to handle a lot of items and run more frequently. The videos look like they don’t have some of the same issues cmp does for me. Maybe its my configuration, but I’m pretty sure it does not update when you backspace and things like that.

These css anchors are crazy that you can do this with html and not a bunch of js, probably requiring a library or framework.

Staically makes creating OG images so easy, you can just pop this in your section with some og tags.

I hit an interesting error after updating my nvim plugins today. I’m sti not even quite sure what a ShaDa file is, but I found min in my nvim state directory, unlike this issue that mentions it being in share.

The Error.

Error while reading ShaDa file:

The Fix

Hynek has a sick dockerfile setup for using uv in python projects.
