  • My work has been pushing BMAD method hard on us software engineers and while I do agree using those prompts, scaffolding, and alot of babysitting, you can get fairly good results - it takes more effort than actually just writing the code.

    Devs are going to get lazy and stop handholding and steering the LLMs, and since we’re now looping LLMs into code review, it’s going to miss stuff as well.

  • Well, it can’t hurt to cross it off. You don’t need to get a domain from a registrar that offers dynamic DNS, you just need to register a domain (or try another dynamic DNS like the other user suggested) and use a DNS provider that is free and offers an API. I personally use Cloudflare, there are plenty of guides for setting up a dynamic record on CF.

    For registering a domain you can use an affordable registrar, I’m a Porkbun customer - for a .com domain it’s like $11 for a year. No need to spend monthly.

  • Even back then caddy was being talked about. I don’t use caddy because, at least back then, it was only free for non commercial use (unless you compile it yourself).

    I’ve been using Traefik for even longer though and haven’t ran into any major issues. Definitely recommend it.

  • I switched to Docker ages ago and don’t regret it. The other benefit aside from the “works on my machine” is that usually it’s very easy to back up with minimal bloat, especially for projects that don’t document what you should be backing up.

    I can, and have, switch hosts on a moments notice and only have to mess with DNS updates.

    Although I’ve been procrastinating switching to rootless Docker.

    The only thing I run on a VM right now is Home Assistant. But I do that with Cockpit and KVM/virsh.
