• Reclaim the Stack

  Since DHH has been promoting the 'do-it-yourself' approach, many people have fallen for it. You're asking the right questions that only a few people know they need answers to. In my opinion, the closest thing to "reclaiming the stack" while still being a PaaS is to use a "deploy to your cloud account" PaaS provider. These services offer the convenience of a PaaS provider, yet allow you to "eject" to using the... - Source: Hacker News / almost 2 years ago

• Are there any SaaS out there built on top of AWS? Like a more UI friendly interface for aws console? Thinking about SES that’s really complicated to configure. A SaaS that can abstract that complexity

• Failed to connect to the host via SSH on Ubuntu 22.04

  If you have just upgraded to Ubuntu 22.04, and you suddenly experience either errors when trying to ssh into hosts, or when running ansible or again when running the ansible provisioner building a packer image, this is probably going to be useful for you. - Source: dev.to / almost 4 years ago

• Create a minimalist OS using Docker Containers and Hashicorp Packer

  I am already using Hashicorp Packer at work and for personal projects and I wanted to test This idea out by wrapping it a single Packer Template file.

• After self-hosting my email for twenty-three years I have thrown in the towel. The oligopoly has won.

  And while it is a slight increase in complexity, it can be an overall net gain in functionality, configurability and reliability.

• Customized Ubuntu Images using Packer + QEMU + Cloud-Init & UEFI bootloading

  Hashicorp Packer provides a nice wrapper / abstraction over the QEMU in order to boot the image and use it to set it up on first-boot. Instead of writing really long commands in order to boot up the image using QEMU, Packer provided a nice Configuration Template in a more Readable fashion. - Source: dev.to / almost 4 years ago

• The journey of sharing a wired USB printer over the network

  Packer seemed like the perfect tool for the job. I have never used it before and wanted to get familiar with the tool. It doesn't come with ARM support out of the box, but there are two community projects to fill that niche. - Source: dev.to / over 4 years ago
