New comment by kkapelon in "Starlink Mini as a failover"

You can get a 4g dongle with $20 for basic failover. There are also many other companies that sell cheaper 5G routers. Zte has several models.

Starlink only makes sense as a last resort if LTE coverage is not available in your area.

You can find something similar with IOT sims. And then you just need a standard 4g/5g dongle/router

Again this is location specific. I have a mini ups on my router/ont. And I assume that my provider also has a UPS, because even when power is out my landline connection just works.

Using a 4g/5g router is much easier and probably cheaper/power efficient.

Depending on your area you don't even need an external one. A simple 4g dongle would do.

Because several developers that work with docker also deploy to Kubernetes. So docker-desktop is a one-click method to get both on your workstation and deploy locally.

It also includes a local k8s cluster. So you get 2 in 1 package.

> Your circuit breakers don't talk to each other.

Doesn't this suffer from the opposite problem though? There is a very brief hiccup for Stripe and instance 7 triggers the circuitbreaker. Then all other services stop trying to contact Stripe even though Stripe has recovered in the mean time. Or am I missing something about how your platform works?

It is answered in the FAQ at the bottom of the page

"The SDK is fail-open by design. If our service is unreachable, it falls back to the last known breaker state.

If no state has ever been cached (e.g., a cold start with no connectivity), it defaults to closed, meaning your protected calls keep executing normally. Your app is never blocked by Openfuse unavailability."

New comment by kkapelon in "Evaluating AGENTS.md: are they helpful for coding agents?"

This only works on systems that support symlinks. It also pollutes the root folder with more files.

I understand the sentiment, but it is really strange that the people that are pushing for agents.md haven't seen https://contributing.md/

Is it even mentioned at GitHub docs https://docs.github.com/en/communities/setting-up-your-proje...

kkapelon — Tue, 17 Feb 2026 07:25:09 +0000

It is still baffling to me why we need AGENTS.md

Any well-maintained project should already have a CONTRIBUTING.md that has good information for both humans and agents.

Sometimes I actually start my sessions like this "please read the contributing.md file to understand how to build/test this project before making any code changes"

Yes. Essentially a competitor to the hugely popular glinet routers but tied to the unifi ecosystem

What happens if you work in a team?

If a team has one senior/seasoned person and 3 juniors will adopting ai be a total positive move? Or the senior person will just become the bottleneck for the junior devs?

>What more are we asking AI to do? And can a normal human do it?

1. Learn/Improve yourself with each action you take 2. Create better editions/versions of yourself 3. Solve problem in areas that you were not trained for simply by trial and error where you yourself decide if what you are doing is correct or wrong

> As long as you are good at reviewing code, spec-ing carefully, and make atomic changes - why would you not be using this basically all the time?

This implies that you are an expert/seasoned programmer. And not everybody is an expert on this industry (especially the reviewing code part).

The closest alternative is probably tplink omada.

Teltonika also has started to create a similar solution but it is not in the same level just yet.
