suggestions for the pixie pages domain welcome btw, it doesn't have to directly have pixie in there as long as it fits thematically
hmm maybe this would also be a nice way to get a couple more donations, to offset other pixietown spending
Also: i've since realized Github and Gitlab actually combine their pages server with CI for stuff like Jekyll, I want to look into this but it's dependent on setting up Drone CI for git.pixie.town first
How does #pixie pages work? (not yet, that's how :p)
- Gitea user adds `domains.txt` to their repo/branch for verification
- Site is available at branch.repo.user.pages.pixie.town or similar (with defaults so you can leave out branch.repo.)
- This can also be used to CNAME a custom domain to the same content
- Or a combination of A/AAAA records + TXT because you can't CNAME @
- Upon access, pixie-pages automatically requests TLS certificates from Let's Encrypt to respond
- ???
- (non-)Profit!
Today I got started on #pixie pages, an alternative to Github/Gitlab/Codeberg Pages:
Static site hosting from Gitea repositories
so far none of the gitea related parts are worked on, but it can seamlessly request ACME ssl certificates for *any domain* it's accessed from, which is really cool imo
i can simply browse to *any domain* that points to my server, and it will automagically request an ACME certificate and use that to respond
sub processing https://github.com/letsencrypt/pebble in my testing code for a local acme server, editing the config on the fly so it requests certificates from there
looking for work; copy-pasted this from linkedin so you get an idea of the tone
Hey all, I'm leaving my current job due to it not being a very good fit for me. Nothing against them at all, they're great people, it's just not quite the dynamic/structure that I can feel good + productive in. So I'm looking for work and figured why not post it here :)
I'm tobi, non-binary (they/them), mid-30's. I've been doing software development for the last 4 years or so. Before that I was a visiting professor of literature, and before that a literature PhD student.
I like doing complicated backend work creating CI/CD flows, orchestrating containers, and building cool data pipelines. I'm good with Linux + bash scripting, sysadmin stuff, Ansible, Terraform, Go, and I also have a bit of Scala, Python, and Java running in production. I can also do React+Redux development, although I prefer not to.
I really enjoy writing fun little CLI tools and 'glue' components that do small things well. I'm also comfortable working independently for long periods of time on big-ish projects (see GoToSocial -- https://github.com/superseriousbusiness/gotosocial). Whatever I'm doing, it's important to me to feel like my work is useful and valued.
When I'm passionate about something and get into flow I am ridiculously productive. I've been described as incredibly fast at writing good code and building out working systems and APIs. I like listening to heavy music while I'm doing this 🤘
I'm chill, friendly, weird, honest, and straightforward, and people seem to like being around me, which is cool. I have no time for corpo-speak, bullshit, or big egos.
I'm outspoken about things I think are unethical or poorly built, but I try to work on solutions that everyone is content with, rather than focusing on problems and laying blame. I am very ready to accept when I've done something wrong, and I always take it as an opportunity to learn something new.
I'm looking for a position where I can slot into an existing team of good + experienced developers who know what they're doing, because this means i'll get to learn new things and push myself a bit.
Practicalities:
- I'm looking for 60% work so that I have time to focus on my other projects and interests too.
- I need to make at least 1700 euros / month after tax for this to be feasible. I don't care about benefits, perks, company car, company laptop/phone, ping pong table etc 🤷 Literally not a factor. Just give me money and interesting problems.
- Mandatory 9-5 office time is not an option for me. I like working alongside people and seeing people face-to-face, but I don't like being obligated to do so. However if the office is reachable by bike, foot, or public transport I'll happily come to meetings etc irl :)
- I don't want to work with AWS, Azure, Google etc products. Big corporations are killing the planet and making everyone miserable, so I don't want to indirectly put more money in their pockets. No monstrous capitalist behemoths please.
That's it! I think. Shooting for the stars here but let's see.
