Lirielon Hetzner Price Adjustment

So far I haven't had any trouble, and they have servers right where I need them.

Lirielon Hetzner Price Adjustment

You may want to look at 3HCloud.

I don't think anyone can guarantee anything here, but I am going to bet that they will be a better-priced alternative.

Lirielon Hetzner Price Adjustment

Prices are going insane, and I am going for an alternative provider in the US.

I have 5 app nodes, 2 background workers, 1 DB replica, and 4 dev/staging instances.

On new Hetzner US pricing:

5 x CCX23 (app nodes): $514.95/mo 2 x CCX13 (workers): $101.98/mo 1 x CCX23 (DB replica): $102.99/mo 4 x CX33 (dev/staging): $39.96/mo Total: ~$759/mo or $9,108/year

On 3HCloud with equivalent specs:

5 x 16 GB 4 vCPU dedicated: $160/mo 2 x 8 GB 2 vCPU dedicated: $32/mo 1 x 16 GB 4 vCPU dedicated: $32/mo 4 x 4 GB 2 vCPU shared: $24/mo Storage ~250 GB total (SSD smart): ~$7.50/mo Total: ~$255/mo or $3,066/year

I will let you do the math.

Lirielon Show HN: SuperPlane - open source DevOps control plane

This looks interesting. Which integrations are coming next?

Lirielon Trust Technical Writers, Not LLMs

You are right, but in practice, a lot of things happen.

Docs that get generated end up in a huge PR that people glance over.

Sometimes the reviewers aren't senior enough, so they don't even see the issue, etc.

Lirielon An open-source maintainer's guide to saying “no”

My pet peeve is people who use LLMs to generate code, never check whether it works, and then submit a PR.

As if open-source maintainers don't have enough chores.

Lirielon Tell HN: HackerNoon removes canonical URLs before publishing

Omg, you're right, they did it to me as well.

I had this issue years ago, and even got into a Twitter argument with their founder. It was a bug. Not sure what is the cause now.

Lirielon Overly analytical guide to escorting

> I’ve been sexually assaulted on the job (which was sort of my mistake; this was the one guy who I thought I’d screened but actually hadn’t, and if I’d screened him I would have not met him)

No it wasn't your mistake. It hurts me to see that people who have been through trauma blame themselves for it.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but this is just for web server statistics? How does it help you with blogging?

Lirielon Personal Blog Analytics – Which Numbers Really Matter

Why do you blog? Isn't the point in blogging sharing your story with as many people you can? Not everything is about self-promotion.

Some metrics can help you understand whether you're reaching the people who you could help out.

Lirielon Social networks are no longer social

I think that developers can safely migrate to communities such as Hashnode instead of wasting their time scrolling through numerous groups on Facebook. All the features are already there without the tracking system in place.

Lirielon Ask HN: Who is hiring? (November 2018)

Hashnode| https://hashnode.com/| REMOTE| Full-time

- Backend Developer (GoLang)

- Backend Developer (Node.js)

- Blockchain Developer

- Front-end Developer

https://hashnode.com/about#jobs

Hashnode is a friendly and inclusive community for software developers. Unlike other Q&A networks, we encourage subjective and opinion based questions and want developers to express themselves. The broader goal is to help software engineers develop new skills, stay relevant and connected.

Lirielon Ask HN: What was the best decision you made in your career?

Moved to another city to change my career and get a really nice job. After 2 years of living there, moved once again to get an even better job and double my salary. I also learned where to draw a line in the sand in that first company. Working for an international company - and being paid minimum wage, noup, won't allow that to happen to me ever again. Afterwards, I realized I loved living in the first city, found a remote job and moved back.
