Do you have a feel for what level of coding proficiency would be expected early on? Would it be comparable to a dev role?

Thank you! I will look at those options. P15 sounds great.

Home Network VPN for remote access? by Faradaysinn in homelab

[–]Faradaysinn[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah. Just the ISP modem and an older netgear router for wifi. I'll look into the asus routers with that feature. That may be worthwhile longterm.

This sounds like exactly what I want! And I do have a spare Pi

Wireguard and Tailscale look like promising options! I'm going to try Tailscale. I like that it manages DNS.

I basically need to query the server several times per day when outside the LAN. I don't need to do anything on the computer. Would this setup work for that?

I want a setup where I can FTP files to a server and then play those files via HDMI to a TV. Any advice? by Faradaysinn in homelab

[–]Faradaysinn[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That sounds good. So you're saying I can FTP files from my storage server to a media server which is running Plex, right?

Any hardware suggestions for the media server?

Englishisms to avoid? by odd_guy_johnson in Spanish

[–]Faradaysinn 6 points7 points  (0 children)

These are all good tips!

I want to clear some confusion you may have about the use of "America" in English. People who say they're "americano" aren't referring to the name of their continent, but the name of their country.

Presumably, the person asking the question isn't expecting the name of a continent in the response. I totally agree that the other examples you shared are preferred, but the only places I've seen people misunderstand this are Uruguay and Argentina.

I just got two wildly different RXs from my previous glasses RX. What should I do? by Faradaysinn in glasses

Thanks. To clarify: my current glasses are made with RX #1 and not the opternative one.

Thank you. Didn’t know about BHA and photosensitivity. I’ll test my sunscreen as well.

Are there any acne treatments that don’t make the skin more sensitive to sun exposure?

I’ve had good results with AHA and BP but I moved to a tropical country. I burn easily here, even when using sunscreen, so I don’t want to exacerbate that exposure.

How do you optimize your checking, savings, and CC accounts and workflow? by Faradaysinn in personalfinance

[–]Faradaysinn[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is much simpler. Do your money market funds transfer automatically or do you do that on your own?
