fairphone allows this. it has its own issues though

yeah. I have the feeling that this story is way too common. which is very telling of how much the system isn't driven towards innovation as many claim. we brag a lot about human ability to pass down knowledge via written language and turns out that most information passed down on some of the highest tech industries is done verbally or not at all! lol

not sure if you're talking about sailing there, but my point against Netflix would be that there are definitely more things to do in life than sitting through hours of passive low effort entertainment. it's very obvious but I guess people are slowly forgetting about that

even gaming is better. at least you're exercising your brain and motor skills

the banking thing is something else though. but it's the kind of thing that's probably done for security anyway, so it's not that bad and things like that definitely wouldn't be profitable enough for all this effort Google and others are putting into it 😅

it's great to see this one here. first thing that popped up on my mind

and not because of faith tbf, but because that world is so damn cool. it's the only series I had to read more than once (probably 3x) just so I could be immersed there again

yep, agreed will all of that

in any case, I never been somewhere where this is properly done to the letter (from an individual's or managerial's perspective). not that I REALLY care tbf, I just do my part to the best of my knowledge and fly away hehe

sharing actual text makes it searchable and easier to archive for the future

Pretty much any subdomain will go to the nginx server and it will only do something if youve configured that subdomain in the config - everything else just gets ignored, or you can setup a catchall to handle all the unconfigured stuff

so you will need something like this (might not be exact, been a long time since i had to configure NGINX haha)

server {
server_name ha.mydomain.duckdns.org;
location / {
proxy_pass http://hostnameOrIP1:port1;
}
}
server {
server_name nextcloud.mydomain.duckdns.org;
location / {
proxy_pass http://hostnameOrIP2: port
}
}

an easier way would be to use Nginx Proxy Manager which gives you a nice GUI to add and manage all the sites.

[-] thunderbox666 « 1 point 2 months ago Anything that has a web service, such as nextcloud or home assistant, can be setup on a domain or sub domain

So you would setup the domain (for example let's say you have myhome. duckdns.org) to point to your server running nginx reverse proxy, and then configure all your services in there

So you might setup homeassistant.myhome.duckdns.org and point it to the internal address you use for home assistant, eg http://192.168.1.15:8123

Then you might add nextcloud as nextcloud.myhome.duckdns.org to point to https://192.168.1.15 These can all be on the same machine as nginx reverse proxy or on another machine all together

Some of these services might also need extra configuration but most will also have guides on their site on what you need to configure to work with a reverse proxy

great post

I don't think I agree with you, replaceability depends on a lot of factors, really.

I'm a lead dev who works mostly in test automation and dev ops. I can assure you that no matter how much and thoroughly I document and share knowledge (I've became known in my company for that since every piece of doc has my name somewhere on it lol) I can't see anyone around there being able to fully take the reins if something happened to me.

in my case, it's a mixture of talent crisis in the industry, lack of interest/expertise in the field and my own company's culture (that doesn't value these infrastructural subjects enough). I bet other people from different areas in tech might share different reasons

but all in all, being irreplaceable is hardly an employee's fault. if a company can't manage to lose an employee (or lets people get away without documenting/sharing knowledge) it's entirely their own fault!

to me, that's one of the biggest tragedies of our time. there are several catastrophic problems to be fixed worldwide and yet we send some of our most brilliant engineers to silicon valley to work on advertising companies

where does this guy get his dating apps? lol
