So I work in a very small company as a dev
And we have external devops company which manages local http servers and MySQL servers for our saas product.

So the thing is I would like to shift some of their work to our in-house dev team.

I thought about starting small and manage a separate server on the cloud that will just run internal cron based daily tasks. But those tasks require read and write permission to the existing db which managed by the local company. Could I ask them to give me access to to the db from another server? I read that it’s a bad practice to expose prod db to the internet even if it has white list so I’m not sure here.

Mid dev in a small startup.

Last week our freelancer devops guy added more server instances for our app and it was a disaster.

I had to cover him for the whole week help find and analyze bugs it caused.

Yesterday when the situation finally calmed down, I went straight to the CEO office, put my big balls on his table and asked for a raise + moving some of his responsibilities to the in-house dev team.

Today the devops guy found that I accidently leaked our env file...

our backend language has a build in function which prints a nicely html of some harmless configs like max execution time and memory which I use sometimes to debug so I thought why not serve it through a random get route for easier access through our environments.

I didn't know that if you don't pass params to this function it also prints the whole server secrets and their mothers.

Honestly, I'd expect the opposite. I hate PHP.

What a day

So now when HS is dead and everyone is kind of mobile i assume we wont see as many sins and clerics as we used to.

Who are gonna be the most popular classes in your opinion?

I'm a full-stack web dev with 3 YOE trying to migrate into devops.

So, I'm collaborating with a friend who is building a mobile app with node server, SQL db and I'm responsible for the infrastructure.

I'd like to try stuff like github actions, docker, managed db service, storage, load balancer, testing environment and so on.

My first instinct was to pick AWS as our cloud service because it's the most popular and probably looks best on resume, I guess?

But in reality, this app probably won't be profitable and mostly be used by us, and I imagine AWS popularity comes with a price.

Should I stick with AWS and make the app less complicated? maybe less known cloud service which won't cost us much as long as traffic is low?

Would love to hear some opinions, thanks!

So I'm a fullstack dev, i use vscode with claude code.

on my day to day job i just talk to it, like hi lets modify page X, add another button which pop up a modal and so on.

Also i created few skills for example i have my own form template im using to and like to work with so i made a skill which guide claude to use some rules when working with forms.

Recently i came across someone's post who asked for help to prepare for "claude interview" which basically means you share a screen and the interview watch you create something with it.

And the comments were like first thing first boom download this amazing repo which included dozens of "best practice skills" and also look for sub agents or whatever.

and then the fomo started to build up in me. i do like to stay up to date but i usually give few months for stuff to cook before i give a try to prevent being the qa.

I'm planning to search for a new job soon, do i really need to dig deeper into claude's features?
