I'm trying out Kagi a little bit, and it has a federation search mode of some kind. I tried it for a search and it gave me results from Lemmy.

I don't know yet how Kagi compares to Google in terms of results quality, I barely used it so far. It's pretty expensive though.

That's what I do all the time, and not on purpose. I don't know what's wrong with me

I use main because, although I never heard of anybody actually getting offended by master, it costs me nothing to use main instead. Also it looks prettier and seems to be the new convention ¯(ツ)/¯

I've been wondering for a long time whether I'd ever meet somebody else who doesn't use their phone in the bathroom.

I don't really judge the people who do, might as well be entertained rather than doing nothing, but I personally feel like my hands are dirty while I'm on the toilet even if I don't do anything (probably just a mental thing). Also, even on the bus, I had a tendency to just get lost in my head.

Also $83/mo HOA, oof.

Thanks for looking it up!

If somebody asked you to bring hot dogs and tacos to a party, the host would probably not be just as fine with you bringing only tacos or only hot dogs.

My Canadian bank just charged me $45 CAD twice and only noticed me a day after the second charge. I didn't notice because I no longer use it. I wish the limit was $3...

Had bad vibes since the first time I heard of him, and I'm usually the biggest fan of new technology in the room. He's always given me the impression that he's driven purely by ego, anything else seems to me like a side effect.

Disclaimer: I don't know much about securing the container itself. The considerations I discuss here are mostly networking.

What I've personally been doing is using k3s with Cloudflare Tunnel (routed using DNS like in this documentation) as an ingress.

With Cloudflare Tunnel, if you create an application in front of it, you can require authentication and add a list of allowed emails.

I could replace k3s with a different Kubernetes distribution, and/or replace Cloudflare Tunnel with a different ingress (e.g., Tailscale Funnel or more common ingresses like nginx).

Co-pilot can write some small very simple functions for me, sometimes saving me the need to look at documentation. It will still often fail at those, in my experience, and will consistently fail at anything more complex.

It will get better, but currently it's only a small help.

Unfortunately, it's the best calculator I could find so far (for my own needs). I paid to remove the ads though, ads bother me way too much to use something infested with them.

I'd honestly choose a similar stack for the back-end. I have limited experience with Rust, but my impressions so far is that it's a language that allows you to make changes with confidence that they'll work. I feel like starting something in Rust is somewhat difficult, but contributing is relatively simple.

For the front-end, I don't think the choice is as important, since I think that by virtue of being federated and being able to have multiple front-ends, it would almost be better for the front-end to be managed by other parts of the community. And I say that as a primarily front-end/developer-experience dev.

I would probably default to React since I'm familiar with it and it's very popular, but would probably be tempted to experiment with something better.

Thanks for all the great work you guys are doing with this instance. This place feels nicer than Reddit.

Great to know this was a bug. It felt a tad immersion breaking for every origin character to be so interested all of a sudden.

I love both proprietary software and open source software, and personally I kinda like this warning.

How much of a concern it is for software's code to be proprietary, is probably personal opinion. For this reason, maybe yellow is a bit too much? I think making these errors grayscale might be a good middle ground.

Pulling changes should be trivial after you've done it a few times.

I do it sometimes, especially when the bug is hard to reproduce and I know exactly what's causing it. Sometimes it's quicker to write the tests than to test manually.

That's a good point, I do find the UI a bit confusing too.

If you want to attach your own domain, I've been using Zoho and having no significant issue (although I haven't really tried anything else). Otherwise, Apple's seems to be the best value, surprisingly?
