  So in simple terms, you propose to build a mom-and-pop shop and have it act like a global player like Amazon?

  Congrats, it does not happen very often I sit in a chair and stare at the screen in disbelief!

  So always assume some piece of knowledge is not obvious for someone out there and share

  You just described a thing of mine I cannot help but do; explain the ever loving crap out of things
  I need to be careful with that though as relatives start to complain and push back on me telling things over and over.
  Thing is, until I see a full comprehension on the other side on what I try to convey I just keep explaining in variations, keep finding metaphors and keep pestering you until you ‘get it’. Some say it is a virtue, some say it is a hindrance.

  I have had therapy on this… 😂

  I use NPM in a docker container. It could not be easier in my opinion but then again, I did not use any of the alternatives so I might be missing out on something, who knows. I did manage a couple of proxy servers in the past based on Apache and I can tell you that NPM is much easier and logical to me than that.

  Just create a compose file and start it. Create DNS records pointing to your NPM IP address/exposed IP and make a host in NPM sending traffic to the right container IP:port. The compose file is super simple, could not be easier. Here’s mine for example:

  services:
    nginx-proxy-manager:
      container_name: nginx-proxy-manager
      image: 'jc21/nginx-proxy-manager:latest'
      restart: always
      ports:
        - '80:80'
        - '443:443'
      volumes:
        - ./data:/data
        - ./letsencrypt:/etc/letsencrypt
  
  

  I just make sure ports 443 and 80 are exposed on my router so DNS records can point to that IP adrdess. All traffic on port 80 gets re-routed to 443.

  I’m probably stating all the obvious things here 😀

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨ChartDB (v1.7.0) - open-source database diagram visualization tool⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I tried today, about 4 hours ago I guess? And this is about MySQL but perhaps the MariaDB issues are related? Anyway, I know it works for some (most?), just not for me and my attention span has only so much to spend on a graphing tool for db’s so I’m good. I was just curious, tried it out and failed. That’s all there is to it tbh. And as it was the very 1st step, I was immediately done as I have no clue what else will not work for me and I have only so much time and energy for project like this.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨ChartDB (v1.7.0) - open-source database diagram visualization tool⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Tried it out on app.chartdb.io

  Tried the generic and v5.4 scripts for MySQL to generate the schema information.

  Both returned [NULL]

  MySQL is running on Docker and I use DBeaver to access it. MySQL is version 8.4.0.

  I believe that the money ‘demanded’ was for the for-profit organization Automattic. Wordpress (i.e. Matt) then tries to make it all about the Foundation. This seems to be false and a ruse to make it seem like a non-profit is fighting a company.

  This is a dispute between WPEngine and Automattic.

  This is kinda on you, you chose to visit hexbear. Just block that instance. And while you are at it, also block lemygrad.

  Remains the question: why the self-flagellation?
