They were in-house but the local dev team were not working with them. Work force in that country was cheaper so i just got fired shortly after :)


Me maintaining an old codebase and implementing features for months before boss shows up one day and says the 60 remote workers have been working on an identical project which will be the one we actually use. Bruh wtf


Same at my new place, i tend to take a shorter lunch and leave earlier, i usually get into office at 8am or slightly before


Just started a new job last week. Ive been in the industry for 3 years so not completely junior but getting in to a new codebase is always rough. Especially when only 1 huge library file is documented, every component is cluttered af and most variables and parameter names are 1 character long.

Doesnt help that functions are 100 lines either when each the parameter names makes the logic incomprehensible.


Yep, port forwarding is gone. Never used it before but now that I actually need it it’s gone. In other areas I’d say Mullvad is number one for VPNs. Sweden based, great transparency, fair price model and no shady parent companies.


I’m pretty sure it is satire. However, it would be hilarious if it was real.



The tech-slope is a slippery slide into your wallet 😅


Thank you for the comment, a very interesting solution! I’m thinking of using Google as little as possible however. I would like to look into how to setup some access from outside the network via some VPN shenanigans.

I was also looking at automating backups with Cron - both DB and images to other disks and devices.

I got Immich up and running but have had some stuff come in the way to spend more time with it.


Another question: I set up the Immich docker image and I’m using Mullvad VPN, however Mullvad VPN removed in-app port forwarding last year. I’m curious whether there is a solution to use Split Tunneling for Immich via another VPN to setup secure remote access outside of the home network?


Thank you! I will try Immich our and see how it feels, if it’s just quick fixes it shouldn’t be an issue. But if it’s too much I might just try out Ente 🙏


Thank you all for the responses! I will take look into Immich and if maintenance is too much of a hassle I might try out Ente!


Self-hosting Photo Alternatives
Hello everyone! I'm currently looking to self host some photos to get my girlfriend off of Google Photos. I'm wondering what has been good in your experience. I never thought about self-hosting the before but a LTT video (I'm sorry) popped up in my feed and I got curious. I looked into Ente.io and PhotoSync so far but unsure if there are any better options. Also saw that LibrePhotos exist but I haven't looked into it yet. What are you using? Have you had any issues? Missing features etc.?

Isn’t that from 1991 while the quote is from 1995? If we’re nitpicking maybe we shouldn’t time travel 🤓
