Scolded me for swearing at it.
“You’ll fucking know when I’m swearing at you,” was my reply to that shit the last time I gave it a spin (after it regurgitated nonsense after many prompts specifically asking for not nonsense).
Counterpoint: If you think you said something stupid, you’re entitled to delete it. Don’t feel obligated to hang your ass out there and take a beating for a cold take.
The answer has been “No” a few times and boy does that suck.
“No one has ever attempted something so convoluted/silly/impossible before. Guess we get to see if we’re actually programmers or not.”
I made sure answering, “Has someone figured this out already?” is a formal step in defining project scope at my company.
In my experience, and in the experience of my coworkers/contemporaries, our formal education taught us how to program which is distinct from which language we program in. For instance, my Java dev friend learned to program in C++ because that’s what was being instructed. I was forced to learn ActionScript 2 and then was forced to migrate to ActionScript 3, because that’s what was being taught. The experience of programming something and iterating on it was far more valuable than knowing a language like C++ or ActionScript.
Languages come and go, some faster than others, and you’ll eventually get to a point where your personal preferences stop mattering as much as which language is best for the task at hand.
PHP is dead. Long live PHP.
Okay, so, FOSS.
If WordPress doesn’t want WP Engine doing what it’s doing, they need to change their license. It’s not “Free Open Source Software Until Something We Don’t Like Happens.”
This can be made even simpler by installing all the repos you want to mirror as submodules of the parent directory’s git repository. Instead of many git pull
or git fetch
, you blast a single git submodule update --recursive --remote
and go about your day.
Bonus: This has the added benefit of generating a git history for your automated process if you script in a commit message with a timestamp, making your mirrors reversible.
TL;DR - This waterfall of word vomit makes no mention of contemporary PHP-based CMS and can be ignored entirely.
It’s paid like WinRAR is paid.
I think it’s bad to invent new words for “stopped container”
You’re not wrong!
Orphans are just dangling objects, are they not?
I’m only using the Unraid Docker GUI to send me utilization alerts and notify me when my images are egregiously out of date. I saw someone trying to author a compose file using the GUI once and I closed the window before the headache started.
I’m not paying $3/mo. Where’d you get that idea? I think I paid $20 for a license like 6 years ago.
I picked Unraid because I had a bunch of disparate HDDs sitting around and their filesystem intrigued me. (0 data loss after 3 drive failures so far.)
running out of disk space
This would be my first guess. Nothing shuts down arbitrary services quite like a full /var/logs
.
I’m running an Unraid server. You can pop in and manage everything with the CLI like you would on traditional server OSes and it’ll show your containers, images, orphans etc. in the GUI and throws alerts out of the box for utilization thresholds and power events. It’s quite nice at a glance and gets the fuck out of the way the moment it’s time to be a sysadmin.
Unraid brings some good things to the table, I wouldn’t discount it completely.
I have a Raspberry Pi 4B as my load bearing Mac mini.
Use containers. Start with one device. Check your utilization after you’re sure you’ve hit min and max for each of your services, then figure out if your single device can handle all your services gunning at once. If not, take your biggest service and migrate it to its own device.
Eventually, you might find yourself googling “Kubernetes vs Docker Swarm.” When you do that, take a deep breath and decide if upgrading one device is easier than trying to horizontally scale many.
Edit: Words bad. Verbs hard.
This one.
