IIRC Strapi is a great option for green field projects. C/p from their docs:

"Strapi applications are not meant to be connected to a pre-existing database, not created by a Strapi application, nor connected to a Strapi v3 database. The Strapi team will not support such attempts. Attempting to connect to an unsupported database may, and most likely will, result in lost data."

Unfortunately, most of the time I do not have such luxury. What are the CMS options for pre-existing databases?

So many fond memories of DSJ. Thank you Jussi. No other game kept me and my friends playing as much as DSJ.

Fun facts: Since Slovenia is being mentioned, recently Domen Prevc set the world record at 254,5m on the largest ski jump in the world in Planica, Slovenia. His sister Nika Prevc won the World Cup this season with a record difference in front of second place. They're both related to Peter Prevc, yet another ski jumper. The whole Prevc family is amazing. To crown everything Anze Lanisek got 5x20 (highest grade) for his jump also in Planica, Slovenia this season.

Yes it is. Water freezes and provides protection from freezing cold as funny as it might sound. Of course watering systems for huge gardens or orchards are expensive even if you have access to enough water.

As far as I understand this is Python specific.

Most monorepos I work with do not use a single language but many. It's pointless to use multiple tools for the same thing instead of one that works with all languages, like nx for example.

Some ACs use exactly this method. Haven't found any other household appliances that use sound for diagnostics.

Applied and we agreed for intro meeting, person on the other side seemed excited to work with me and I was as well. Interesting project, get paid to do open source stuff - what's not to like?

Got ghosted for two times, first time it was a holiday, agreed to reschedule. No harm done. Second time ghosted without any further explanation or apology. There might be a better suiting candidate or something else came in between, completely understandable but there are better ways to handle these kind of things.

TLDR: not meant as a complaint, just as a warning to others. Not everyone is in the same timezone as you are.

In my experience and the projects I worked with too much time is spent for custom backoffice / CMS. Retool is seems like a super power, but it's almost impossible to get buy in for that if some custom solution is already in place. Regardless how much (over) time is spent maintaining that custom solution.
