No, at least in Germany (pretty sure other western countries too) you are covered after stuff like this. You won't be rich, but enough housing food and your camera.

Not sure if I can follow you, why would credentials known by anyone stop bots?

Thats not really 'simple' for an LLM. This is a niche information about a specifc person, LLM's train on massive amount of data, the more a topic is being present in the data, the better will the answers be.

Also, you can/should use the "research" mode for questions like this.

Not sure if its that simple. MicroStrategy is buying BTC since its ~10k, which sounds easy but actually requires some insane strength for actually holding it until today 100k+. They actually believed in the asset and got rewarded for it. Banks investing in Gold is pretty much the same.

Agent based is not really a big burden, most monitoring systems work like this (Prometheus). Companys use Ansible etc.

As far as I know it's just a node exporter, similar to prometheues node-exporter

"lost a weekend" - it's called having fun. You loose a week if you work for someone else.

In the years i've been on hackernews, not once i've had the feeling even in the slightest that this is the case. This is crazy.

Which are Opt-In. It doesn't hurt to have optional features for people who want them.

Brave is solid. Opensource with some nice features

1) Install Ansible

2) Create a playbook which pulls from your GIT, sets the DNS and installs Caddy (or apache+certbot or whatever) (~5min)

3) Run Ansible

You now don't need docker, can change to any other cheaper hoster any time you want and you don't have the limitations of "serverless" services

What you are actually searching for is called ansible

Yeah awesome, reddit was one of the last useful results beside the spam blogs and ai generated articles.

How is the biggest configuration management not a transferable skill? And what has this todo with shops?

You could do just the same with Ansible and Hetzner for 3$ a month

Debian family is actually much bigger for servers in most of Europe. RedHat seems to be more of an American thing (of course you'll also find redhat in eu and debian in usa, but as a general rule)

I'm with you that RPC is better suited for action-oriented APIs - but flask-restx gets the job done well and I know more about it, which is enough for me to simply stick with it. I also like swagger. I'll consider RPC for my next project though
