Self-hosting stuff is awesome if you have the skills.

I have been on a mission for the last 2 years to replace as many subscriptions as possible with self-hosted solutions.

I have been doing the same for quite some time now but it's only recently I realized all these subscriptions services are just making rich richer. We should encourage self hosting as much as possible. I mean why should we pay huge corporations more money just for storage?

I don't necessarily agree with GP's comment but they do have a valid point.

We could solve this problem in a few years with technology if we really wanted to.

Everybody wants to solve the problem with technology. What if, the solution is just plain old hard work like planting trees, conservation, better recycling, better laws that help in saving ecosystem. But who would do that. So let's keep on creating problems with technology and then solve them with more technology.

I build simple applications for personal use like issue tracker, day planner, etc,. By default if you ask Claude it will generate React for frontend but I ask it to use HTML/CSS/JS instead. Because as a backend developer that makes sense to me. I find it hard to read the react code and want to avoid having dependency on npm.

It's surprising how well the core technology works without fancy front end frameworks. Claude does most of the grunt work related to CSS/JS allowing me to focus on more interesting things. I only have to do few minor changes here and there which I am happy to do.

It's crazy how many people just read the headline and choose to comment or upvote these links.

Also, why the title is not same as the article? It makes no sense.

Then you don't have to spend time messing around with things like OAuth and authentication, you can just write the application.

It sounds good but in reality people end up spending time messing around with config files and annotations.

It’s breaking free from the heavyweight framework ecosystem that the JVM all but forces on you.

No config files, no annotation magic, just composition, testability, and code small enough to hold in your head.

This. When I look at code I should just be able to follow it and know what's happening. The whole annotation magic and config files makes it hard to understand the flow of things.

Podman supports kubernetes YAML or the quadlets option. It's fairly easy to convert docker-compose to one of these.

Nowaday I just ask genAI to convert docker-compose to one of the above options and it almost always works.

How did we fail to forsee the effects of plastic before unleashing it on humanity and the world? Is there some org or body that would prevent such thing from happening in future with other material? If we have not learn anything from this we are doomed to repeat it.
