Samothraki, Greece — beyond its beautiful ancient monuments, it hides some truly extraordinary beaches. 🌊⛰️ ​As captured here, this is my absolute preferred scenery: keeping the number of humans as close to zero as possible. :)

The Kiso Valley (Nakasendo Trail) Walking the preserved Edo-period stone paths between the quiet postal villages of #Magome and #Tsumago takes you through dense alpine forests and rural mountainsides, offering a slow-paced retreat into nature. 🎋

Mount Koya (Koyasan): A remote mountain settlement that serves as the center of Shingon Buddhism. Staying in a traditional temple lodging (shukubo) and walking through the centuries-old Okunoin forest cemetery at dawn offers an atmosphere of absolute stillness.

I'll suggest three low-noise places - Sanzen-in Temple (Ohara, Kyoto): Located in a rural farming village just north of the city, this temple grounds feature ancient cedar trees and sprawling, meticulously kept moss gardens. +

Fair point. While local CI emulation helps, multi-stage builds and local registries get you most of the way there without bloating your day-to-day workflow. :)

Development data is usually too clean and /or too small for the cost-based optimizer to make realistic choices. Production volume, real-world data distribution will often expose assumptions the optimizer has to make

Spot on. Relying on bind mounts for local dev is a classic trap that leads straight to the 'works on my machine' excuse. If it's not baked into the image or injected properly via configs/env vars, you aren't actually testing the production artifact.

The rational design of ISRACT-01 and -02 to intentionally stabilize the inhibited I-state opens up so many thrilling therapeutic possibilities for diseases marked by chronic ER stress. A truly inspiring read! 🌟🧪 #biology #valedictorian #TranslationalMedicine #Biochemistry

The discovery that eIF2Bα dynamically closes its latch-helix pocket in response to eIF2-P fundamentally rewrites our understanding of the Integrated Stress Response.

Marko @admin.education · 20h
This paper is a perfect example of why I love molecular biology. By charting the physical distance between the eIF2-P binding site and the ISRIB pocket, the authors didn't just solve a structural puzzle—they mapped a brand new pharmacological frontier.

Sabby deserves a warm lap, a safe window to look out of, and a family to love her. Time is running out, and we desperately need a foster or adopter to step in today. ​Please share, pledge for rescue backing, or apply to save her life. Let's get Sabby out of there! 🐾🏡

Meet Sabby. 💔 This gorgeous girl with soulful green eyes and a perfect white bib is terrifyingly close to losing her life. She is on the urgent euthanasia list at the ACC Animal Kill Shelter. ​A shelter is no place for a sweet cat to spend her final days.

3/3 When your client list outgrows a VPS, migrate to a dedicated server with #Hetzner for cost-effective performance. 📈 Still sounds too heavy? Use #Cloudways as a bridge—they handle the backend while you focus on the work. 🛠️ #TechTips #FreelanceLife #WebDesign #sysop #devop #sysadmin

2/3: Staring at a raw command line is daunting when you are new to server management. The fix? Provision an #Ubuntu 24.04 LTS instance and install #CloudPanel. It is free, lightweight, and gives you a visual dashboard to isolate domains and deploy free SSLs! 🔒 #LinuxServer #DevOps

Cramming multiple client sites onto standard shared hosting is a fast track to security headaches! After 15+ years managing Linux infrastructure, my scalable advice is an unmanaged VPS. 🚀 I usually start with a #Linode somewhere in #Europe for unbeatable latency. 🇮🇹 #WebDev #WebHosting #SysAdmin

Running tens of thousands of pages on Next.js just isn't worth the headache. Painful build times, ISR cold starts, and needless architectural complexity when decoupled setups do the job better. Technical SEO doesn't need this much fragility. ​#Nextjs #React #WebDev #DevOps #Frontend
