I'm so fed up with the series of tabloid articles claiming Koji was a stand-in actor in koitoki. the 'insider' seems to be part of the staff since they had access to details like the location of the wrap-up party. Idc who they are and how true their information is, the intention is obviously malicious. it's just disappointing that a person like that is blending in with the people my oshi works with, viewing him as nothing more than a subject to sell to trash tabloids.

Reading Slow Productivity by Cal Newport, discovered via onboarding content in mymind mymind.com
I hate crawlers that donโt advertise theyโre crawlers. โn badly written. They donโt respect the canonical URLs so they keep getting themselves into a loop instead of actually crawling the site properly. They make the logs really hard to read. Canโt block them theyโre distributed.
I am curious what an actual solution to this problem could be. Everything I've read about it feels like a bandaid โ from robots.txt to cloudflare turnstile โ there has to be a better way!
It would require permaban on IPs which would require permalogging of IPs in order to track them, and we are currently obfuscating them before hitting the DB with daily rotating salt so an anonymous user canโt be tracked. So weโd have to give up privacy/security :/

Microservices.
Not really programming, as this is more on the architectural level.
Microservices is a valid approach when you need to address massive scale. The thing is, I have seen it applied to things that could realistically serve its audience in a handful of modest servers with a less fashionable approach.
It was done under the guise of simplification; each individual microservice was in fact very small. But this at the cost of absolute spaghetti architecture.
