You add "hidden" inputs to your HTML form that are named like "First Name" or "Family Name". Bots will fill them out. You will either expect them to be empty or you fill by JavaScript with sth you expect. It&#x

A good old Honey Pot helped us at All Quiet "a lot" with those attacks. Basically all attacks are remediated by this. No need for Cloudflare etc.

I am not hiring but I wanted to say that I stopped scrolling down your page on your website when I saw this "perspective" thing you do. It's weird, but in a good way so now I am writing this comment.

I mean, great, but which CTO gave greenlight to such a weird architectural choice. Sorry for the rant!

AI made programming A LOT MORE FUN for me. What I never enjoyed was looking up the cumbersome details of a framework, a programming language or an API. It's really BORING to figure out that tool X calls paging params page and pageSize

You'll have planned downtime just for upgrading MongoDB version or rebooting the instance. I don't think that this is sth you'd want to have. Running MongoDB in a replica set is really easy and much easier than running postgr

OK guys, running on a single instance is REALLY a BAD IDEA for non-pet-projects. Really bad! Change it as fast as you can. I love Hetzner for what they offer but you will run into huge outages pretty soon. At least you need two different ne

Unpopular opinion here probably but: Tinkering is also a great habit to be disappointed and unhappy. I love software and programming, but the apologetic requirements that can come from users mean adding a lot of complexity to software, that
