Currently building a webapp with vue/django and I'm loving it. The project was fast and simple to setup. Even though it is my first time using a js frontend framework, I found it very easy to learn.
Testing backups and having a recovery plan is paramount. I have been burned in the past by making backups, but then floundering around trying to redeploy.
Not sure if this is what you are looking for, but I use kanboard [1] for my project management. I like it because you can add automation hooks, e.g. once I close a task on one board, it can auto-move to another. So a dev task can get moved over to an operations board to be deployed. It is a open source, self hosted web app. There are several integrations and plugins out there for different stuff.
A job I interviewed for recently found it suspicious that I didn't have a facebook or other social media accounts. As if I was lying and had something to hide. I can only imagine what law enforcement would think about that.
Discipline is cultivated over time, and for me it is all about consistency. When I want to develop a new habit, I commit to doing it every day. The hardest part is just getting started The amount of time I spend on that task doesn't matter as much as starting the task does. One minute is better than zero. Over time, the time spent increases, and it becomes second nature for me to perform it.
gcheong's comment about environment is also spot on. Make it easier for yourself to stay disciplined. Reduce the amount of willpower/effort that it will take to start a task.
Tourism is one of the largest industries in the US. Approximately 77 million foreigners traveled here in 2016 [1]. Hopefully, in time, we can get some statistics about lost revenue due to these policies and persuade congress against them. Lost profits seem to be something they understand and take action on.
Are there any good resources or writeups for FaaS usecases? I have been hearing about it for a while, but have yet to find myself in a situation where I would want to integrate this into an application I am working on.
I mean it when I say you're only ever one click away from Google. I just looked and it's full of ideas.
As I explain in the linked video (on the FaaS repo) - Serverless is an architectural pattern - and it is perfect for building integrations between third-party services and event-driven architectures. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-h2VTE9WnZs&t=954s&index=1&l...
A lot of this really depends on what your company is doing.
One thing that I always do when I am working on a project is documentation. While an all encompassing organizational wiki is great and where you should be headed, at the bare minimum throw some notes into a text file. Proper documentation early on prevents a lot of headaches and wasted time back tracking or redoing research. It also makes on-boarding new teammates easier. I personally use dokuwiki for this purpose.
