Still pondering how to celebrate with the Not Really Ghostbusters!

I love it when WBEZ plays Duster during a short break.

My friend’s brother worked on the Oculus for over 6 years as a contractor and was just hired to Meta as a full time employee in September. He was laid off along with your wife (sorry to hear) a week or two ago. He just bought a house and has two small children.

Beautiful! I decided to start talking at you through my personal account. I’m always on Ghostbusters social media by default and decided to start posting with this account again.

I finally kicked the tires on Claude Code and ended up open sourcing a pure Swift BitTorrent library targeting macOS 14+ and iOS 17+. github.com/warppipe/swi...

Well, I think he finished off some Apricot Brandy before he took the podium. That must count for something.

@castewar.bsky.social I like how your new Prime Minister quoted Ghostbusters during his acceptance speech. "I've worked in the private sector...".

By the way, I love what you did with the Bremerton poetry box!

I am retraining to become a Product Manager after over 25 years as a Software Engineer. I worked at major labels (including Sub Pop’s parent label) and independent labels and would love to get back into the music industry. I started my career working on the first music subscription service.

I never officially worked with K, but I became friendly with Sarah, Mariella and Calvin over the years. I did early contract work at Sub Pop in 1999-2002 when Dietrich was webmaster. I don’t remember exactly how we met, but we became Facebook friends and bonded over music and technology.

I started as a software engineer writing Perl in 1997. The ecosystem of modules was great for the time. I built an AIM chat bot with the Eliza Perl module, among other things. Python's ecosystem is lightyears ahead from my beginnings with Perl and Django is a great batteries included framework.

Sorry, that gist is old. Peep this article. razorops.com/blog/top-10-... If your code is in a private repository, which I imagine it is, you want a private Docker image. Google Container Registry has been very reasonable for me personally, but go with a registry you feel comfortable with.

Top 10 FREE Container Registery Services

Docker Hub offers unlimited public repositories and one private repository in its free plan. It includes 1 GB of storage and 100 GB of data transfer.

Digital Ocean has a private Docker registry you have to pay for. I sent you a list of private Docker registries with free tiers in my other post. I haven't used fly.io either, but I'm sure it has a Docker registry setting similar to the other platform you mentioned in your last post.

Chad Paulson @chadpaulson.com · 23/02/2025

Interesting, I've never heard of that before. Looks like there is a setting to choose from an existing Docker registry, they don't provide one. kamal-deploy.org/docs/configu... Here are a list of private Docker registries with free tiers. gist.github.com/JakubOboza/f...

Agreed, but you don't have to host your image on DockerHub. Many platforms host your private image once you base your docker image off an existing public image. That's the case with Google App Engine, Google Cloud Run and (I think) AWS Fargate. Zack, what platform(s) are you deploying your app?

If you are referencing the US, there has been a plan in place by the executive branch to usurp power from the legislative and judicial branches called Project 2025 and there are several executive orders and firings (followed by hirings of loyalists) as of late that have brought it to life.

Chad Paulson @chadpaulson.com · 23/02/2025

What platform is your app running on mainly? Python, Ruby, Node, Go, etc?

110

Chad Paulson @chadpaulson.com · 23/02/2025

Quite possibly. For example, I have a few apps running on Google App Engine. My Dockerfile starts with FROM gcr.io/google-appengine/python, followed by a series of RUN (apt-get|curl|bash|pip), ENV and ADD declarations to install dependencies, setup env and add source before WORKDIR, CMD and EXPOSE.

Chad Paulson @chadpaulson.com · 23/02/2025

I usually use an existing public Docker image and add RUN apt-get / yum / curl / bash directives in Dockerfile to install the dependencies that are needed for the app.

Saw Built To Spill at the zoo tonight. Also in the crowd, K Records founder, Beat Happening frontman, and Olympia icon Calvin Johnson doing some vintage Calvin dancing to his Halo Benders bandmate. I 100% identified him from the dancing before I saw his face. I would recognize that dancing anywhere.

@liminalgarrett.bsky.social Do you / did you work at Sub Pop? I was the one that started the short-lived dubnarcotic.org blog and YouTube channel. I am currently in the process of adding the rest of those filmed performances on my personal YouTube page.

I'm scrobbling music from various sources to last.fm again after 7 years of inactivity. I would love to be a Product Manager at that company. The app needs to be more social, like the original.
