Kuidas saab miski olla nii odav (VPS)

Selleks, et mul oleks hajussüsteemide aines oma dev andmebaas… OK, alustame sellest, et mul ei olnud esialgu ettekujutust, et mis on Docker ja kuidas VPSi kasutamine käib. Võtsin mõne päeva sellest nädalast, mis eksamite ja uue semestri vahele jäi ning natuke uurisin.

Nüüd ma olen seal kohas, et mul on Hetzneris see kõige odavam VPS (1 vCPU, 2 GB RAM, Helsinki), kus jookseb tavaline Ubuntu Server, kuhu olen installinud Dockeri ja selles jookseb MS SQL server. Seni identne selle barreli omaga, mis Käveril. Ma ei ole selle eest mitte midagi maksnud, sest lihtne Google otsing andis 24 eurose kupongi veebruari lõpuni 🙂 Aga, see maksaks muidu 2.96 eurot (koos maksudega!). Nagu, misasi see on!? Kuidas see saab nii odav olla 😀

Kui Hetzneri kupongi poleks leidnud, siis ilmselt oleks õppimiseks kasutanud siit artikli lõpust UpCloudi või DigitalOceani kupongi.

How to stay away from Facebook for a period of time

How I willingly locked myself out of Facebook (and you can too).

I always regret the time I have spent on social media. I deleted my Twitter (permanently) few months ago. I stopped watching Instagram stories and haven’t seen any this year. I have deleted my Facebook account once (few years ago) and now is the second time to take a break. Because I really need (and would prefer) to study.

Niisama asjadest – Unsplash ja Sportlio

Unsplash saatis enda eelmise aasta kokkuvõtte ja mind väga vaimustab, kuidas 7 aastaga entusiasmi pealt lihtsast Tumblri blogist midagi sellist tehnoloogiliselt lahedat välja kasvab. Nende esimese lehe postitus Hacker Newsis (30.05.2013) endiselt kihvt lugemine (ka sellest, kuidas v1 kriitika mõnikord on väga mööda).

Kolmapäeval käisin Python Coding Clubis vaatamas Mikk Meerentsi presentatsiooni Sportliost. Ta on alates 2014 samamoodi õhina pealt üksi teinud enamvähem nende oskustega, mis ta sealt kolmapäevadel õppinud on. See on jällegi huvitav perspektiiv, et kõik on võimalik.

Best cheap shared hosting – expert opinion

This title is for Google. I am just sharing my experience in hosting websites at an affordable price.

I have tried Dreamhost and Bluehost to save money for some of my voluntary projects (but did not save any). If possible, keep away from these despite them being heavily advertised.

For smaller projects, mainly in the past, I have used planet.ee service (provided by Zone). This is 10GB of space, 1 MySQL database (but you can actually fit multiple WP installations into one), free SSL certificate and much more. Absolutely fantastic thing for 11.88€ per year. Very snappy and simple to use.
