    Devanooga's Cloudlog Instance

    We've had one up and running for awhile here: https://cloudlog.devanooga.com/index.php/visitor/W3UWU (links to my logbook), by design CloudLog requires invites, so drop a reply here or ping me on Slack and I can get you an invite.

    Container Orchestration and Device Mapping

    So some background: I've been a fan of using Docker Swarm for smaller deployments, I'd argue it fits a massively needed niche where Kubes is way overkill or less accessible for a long list of reasons. So I recently moved a project that uses as a bunch of Raspberry Pis to handle a bunch of...

    Forum Bridge -- Post Thread Updates?

    Here's something I've been pondering, do we care to post about thread updates in Slack? Generally I don't, activity around here allows me to swing by occasionally (even if it's mostly my announcements recently or long-term content archival like pictures of projects). but those that use Slack...

    Mastodon Is Back!

    I made an announcement in the Meta channel about Mastodon being back: https://forums.devanooga.com/threads/mastodon-is-back-yall.101/ https://social.devanooga.com but it's been a trudge to get fully up and running 100%. First I set up a Mastodon instance for Chattanooga Digital Well dang...

    Mastodon is Back, Y'all!

    With the work done with Chattanooga Digital, I figured it would be good to dust off the old 4.1 Devanooga Mastodon server. Chattanooga Digital will get a cleaned up Docker Compose setup, and we'll get a new v4.5 server storing all assets on an S3 server instead of throwing them all on the...

    Alternatives To Slack?

    Background Well recently this article has been floating around: https://skyfall.dev/posts/slack TL;DR: an open group slack ended up crossing the threshold for free Slack for communities like ours, moving to $5k/yr (we're not there yet) and nailed them with another fee. While that's been fixed...

    MAUI/Aspire/Test Containers - Microsoft Not Invented Here Syndrome

    There was an interesting thread on /r/dotnet today My reply on this: I'm just kind of feeling exhausted in .NET basically re-inventing the wheel while we continue to have other gaps that could use filling, such as Microsoft's lackluster support of open source projects and the crunch of so...

    Development Speed vs Age

    This is something that kind of rolls around the industry a bit -- that as developers age out they get slower/less efficient/etc. whatever. There's a few fun takes on my part: I totally wrote more code when I was 20 Like that 4000 line file instead of making it completely data driven and what...

    How Quick Can People Get Spun Up On Your Projects?

    On this Reddit thread today, there was a discussion about .NET Aspire something I haven't heard about until now. One of the comments brings up this point: I.. uh... have we not been doing this with docker and seeders for... well, near a decade for now? How much of a struggle is it for...

    Shopify Issue - Random Rare Failures of Online Auth With HTML Response

    OK this is a funny one, we added Online auth (after Offline auth) so we could tell which user is logging into our app (auditing, permissions, etc.), cool. However randomly, very rarely, for specific user accounts, instead of getting a JSON response, we get an HTML response, when you dump the...

    If You're Not Using Husky.NET Do It

    https://alirezanet.github.io/Husky.Net/ The ability to slap together in some nice pre-commit hooks, get decent cross-platform support, etc. is wonderful. CLI UX is great, I went from nothing to having it locking down one of our newer projects with a ton of pre-checks in a half an hour.

    Alternatives For FOSS .NET Libraries That Went Commercial

    A lot of libraries have been moving closed-source/commercial lately (I also got some listed here that are older/people may not know because they kind of silently transitioned), for many of us these aren't options, so we'll keep a list of libraries that went this direction and recommended...

    So.... How Long Until The Hiring Market Recovers?

    This is a bit of a two-fer question -- one we just passed December, the worst month for hiring in IT sectors it seems, and of course the general hiring slowdown/hemorrhaging of employees of some places. Does hiring pick up again in January? I haven't kept my finger on the pulse quite close...
