The best way is to use ssh-ca and certificate based auth.

Some things require skill to operate.

It will be implemented, they’ll just do it slower.

1. I don’t, in general all of them are restarted automatically. I have monitoring configured for services, not containers themselves.
2. Yes, looking at the original Dockerfile/Containerfile if they have HEALTHCHECK keyword you can assume that they do something.
3. Person building the container, often it doesn’t make sense to create a healthcheck at all. Some times healthcheck feature is provided by application as well, it still needs to be part of the containerfile.
4. Better to monitor your service (application+db+proxy+queue+whatever), not containers in isolation.

I find vim way of editing text uncomfortable and how it lacks flexibility in general when compared to emacs (One can make vim from emacs not viceversa). Also I like that emacs is a gui application.

Linux, emacs.

You can switcj windows using keyvoard with apps like krunner, rofi, etc. Not exactly what you described/wanted.

You forgot the question part.

Docker, copy-paste yaml definitions and shit are the automated/user-friendly solution. There are projects that provide things that you want, they are either proprietary or cloud-based, or paid.

I don’t support this and have no idea why there is a need for ‘ai’ in browser, but if people find this useful good for them. That firefox finally added vertical tabs was big highlight for me this year.

It is, but nfsv3 is extremely easy to configure. You need to edit 1 line in 1 file and it’s ready to go.

Now I’m even more wary of their products, every new peace feels more and more like they are attempting to take over python with apparently unlimited resources.

Just normal dnsmasq without fancy web-ui.

nay

rude

why You can create initful container (don’t know if it possible with alpine) and run as many services inside it as you desire. Crons are pretty clunky inside containers and it’s a lot easier to just run them from host using docker/podman container exec, writing containerfiles is pretty easy as well.

Yay, gtk3! /s

What DE or WM (and distro if relevant) do you use for your actual, professional work?

KDE/Arch

Was this a choice by you or pre-selected by the employer? Do they allow you to work on your own device if desired? (Excluding freelancers obv.)

Choice was made by me (everyone except one person at the time was running arch with kde as well 🙃). Yeah, bringing your own device was allowed as long as disk was encrypted.

Do you need to balance stability vs. customisability? Or is that a no-brainer for you? (=“Have you ever had to cancel a meeting because an Arch update broke your screen sharing?”)

No, this never happened to me with work machine, arch is extremely simple to maintain as long as you follow simple procedure of reading news and keeping out-of-repos packages to minimum.

How much time do you find reasonable to put into maintaining/developing your setup?

Maintaining - up to an hour a week. Developing - dunno, I haven’t changed things since kde 5 - 6 transition and it was a small change as well.

Did distro choice (or lack thereof) impact your choices for DE/WM?

Who knows, probably not.

Do you feel like your code editor, language stack, or job profile has an impact on the choices? For example, is your profile very specific (“I go to dailies and turn tickets into code / I work alone for weeks at a time researching stuff”), allowing you to optimise the setup further?

Well, emacs has some impact on my psyche worldview probably. 😄

Great feature!
