Right on

Possibly. In that situation the people were grateful to be hired, and they worked hard anyway. They didn’t express any qualms about how they were hired. If they did, maybe they kept it to themselves.

I have been a part of interviews (at a computer repair shop, mostly men) where my boss said we had to hire the only woman interviewee because it looked bad to not to, and we needed diversity, even though she wasn’t very qualified. So we hired her instead of the person who had excelled in the interview.

At my next job we had some diversity hires. It was pre-DEI, but we had a diversity intern program. We hired a guy because he was black, he was qualified and was amazing. Later we hired a person who was also black and wasn’t very qualified, they struggled for months and eventually quit - we had hired them based on skin color too.

Not saying I’m for or against, but I’ve seen situations where diversity became more important than qualifications. I’ve also seen where both were equally important, and that was preferred.

What I was referring to is called a Bind Mount, where host directories are exposed to the docker container. You may be fine if it’s an external hard drive. I use bind mounts because they’re easier to back up, but I acknowledge they are less safe.

You may be perfectly fine as you are now. My (and others) suggestions are for added security. As it stands, if there’s no target on your bind, the only bad traffic you’ll get are from bots trying to pick away at your domain and sub domains. Generally they’re not a problem. But being extra safe costs nothing but time.

I’ve had a decent experience with Tuta.

“Secure” and “exposed” are antonyms in this scenario, that’s the nature of the beast. I use Nginx which I have a domain pointing to. Worst case scenario, a hacker brute forces access to my container and mucks around within the confines. As I understand from a WireGuard VPN, there’s an added level of security. You have to use the VPN to get access to your home ports, and then you can access your Docker containers as configured. There’s an added layer of security.

Some things to consider:

• Do you have a target on your back?
• Does your container contain sensitive data?
• If so, does your container have access to external directories?
• Does your project have security options like Geo Blocking, rate limiting, etc?

I’ve been running some local servers for a few years only behind Nginx. So far nothing bad has happened. But that doesn’t mean something bad couldn’t happen later.

Sauerkraut! Used to be toilet cheese, now it’s a delicacy that’s earned its place on my sandwiches.

Frontend in software development. If you know, you know.

I join when the meeting reminder pops up and I click “join”, right on time. I don’t like small talk, no point in being early.

Yeah, hence the “lol”. I thought the article headline was worded oddly.

My SO has been using ASMR with some ear buds for years. It occupies her mind and helps her relax enough to fall asleep. Great stuff.

She also needs her fan… Or some other form of white noise. It may be an ADHD thing.

I didn’t know SSDs contained batteries. Lol

Sperm confetti.

Kagi! You can block websites so they don’t show up. It’ll also flag websites that contain a lot of spam or ads.

I’ve had a consistently unbiased experience with Tangle: https://www.readtangle.com/about/

Strictly from a viewer’s perspective, I use a YouTube client alternative (like GrayJay, Freetube, NewPipe) and subscribe only to the channels I want to see content from. Then I can look at video suggestions for given videos to see relevant content. This entirely removes me from the algorithm as well as any personalization that would put me in an echo chamber. I also branch out to reliable and unbiased news sources, better search engine alternatives, and so on.

Ah, that makes sense then.

Well they have to send the tickets somewhere, don’t they?
