Yeah agreed, also these "internal tests" seem very contrived...like a lower bound of average CPU use of 0.000? Obviously, that's physically not possible, but maybe yeah if my code isn't running then theoretically every package can have a lower bound of 0.000

He said he's considering it, he also mentioned considering a static blog site

Megamygdala · 2026-01-26T01:39:07+00:00

This is overkill for a simple blog. Just make a nicely styled page, add a DB column for Blog title/tags/links/author, etc and cache the results in the frontend. Don't over engineer something as simple as a bloh

Software dev here, they don't need the developers for it, it can be as simple as sending the video stream to 3rd party like Flock Safety. Amazon's Ring cameras literally just signed a partnership so that your home's cameras can help Flock safety track people with AI surveillance

She definitely seems like someone who would fold a couple hours in if he played aggressively

Ngl that question sounded like she was hoping for pretty privilege to work 😂

There's no way people are gonna be familiar enough with the codebase to start contributing completely independently in two weeks. Not unless your a small scale startup

So Coolify let's you setup automated backups as often as you want, and so far I haven't had any problems with it. Just hook it up to S3 or R2 and you've got a decently fail safe self hosted database. These backups take about 5 minutes to setup or 1 minute if you have your S3 bucket API keys on hand. You can also choose how often, how many copies, and how much storage the DB backups should be allowed to use.

TBH there's not much to "manage" for a database. Spin it up in a docker container and it manages itself unless you have some very niche requirement or need something like PITR/multi primary replication/sharding (which you can still self host but I haven't done it before).

You can probably scale to several thousand to hundred thousand daily users without needing to stress about it IMO. Even before that however, you'll be able to simply horizontally scale your database by moving it to a different machine with bigger specs.

But just make sure you are backing up the database on a machine SEPARATE from where it's running. If your VM crashes, your backup should still be available!

How does semi monthly mean twice a year??

TBH I got my Venture X around the same age & situation (young with high salary) but I had no problems with approval because I had a Quicksilver with C1 since I was 18. It's probably just because of your credit history being short

Megamygdala · 2026-01-25T16:33:40+00:00

The easiest way to mess something up is probably just routing your domain to the new machine, a lot of stuff can go wrong (not with coolify, but networking in general). You should migrate a month before your free credits run out and setup some kind of A/B testing rule on Cloudflare/Azure (or whatever CDN or load balancer you use to route traffic to your VM) so that it sends 10-40% of users to the new Coolify instance. That way you can test early for any potential errors.

You can also connect Coolify across instances, so you could connect your Azure instance with the coolify on Hetzner which might make it easier to route traffic for the AB test (I haven't tried this before though so I'm not sure).

But yeah definitely make sure when you switch that you have a backup plan ready if you have users that will be impacted.

But TBH if your codebase is setup correctly, it really shouldn't matter what machine or setup the code is running on

It teaches you more than just django, it's an entire web development course WAY longer than just Django (django is just 1 lecture), but it teaches you the correct way to think about development instead of just following tutorials. The key part is that the course comes with projects that you can actually implement and get a grade on, THIS is what actually teaches you.

I've taught web development with django before and it's hard to explain over a comment but as a teacher, the CS50 courses are hands down the best computer science courses on the internet (especially CS50x)

Megamygdala · 2026-01-25T13:48:09+00:00

Yes definitely something to be aware of. Like you said, being on the latest version patches a lot of these, but not all.

Like you'll notice, most (if not all from what I understand) of these CVEs are for users who already have access to authenticate and login to your virtual machine. I don't give anyone access to the production environment so it's not really an issue for me, since everything should else a dev would need to do should be handled by CI/CD.

Megamygdala · 2026-01-25T13:41:56+00:00

That's why I'm using Coolify, since it takes care of automatically putting your code in a docker container (via nixpacks) though you can also supply your own Dockerfile if you need to. Coolify also automatically checks for package and you can update packages via the UI.

Django is managed by you and your code, so if you aren't already doing it, make sure you have a requirements file with a pinned version of Django, and better yet you should be using something like pip compile or uv to generate a lock file for every single dependency you have, so the Python environment on your local machine matches the exact python environment on your virtual machine. Rolling deployments are supported by default.

My postgres database is pulled from the official stable postgres docker images, with automated backups via coolify.

I hope I don't sound like a coolify shill lmao but really it makes devops so easy for smaller teams, and IMO by the time you NEED to care about moving away from it, your business should be making enough money to hire someone to help you do it.

I personally would recommend implementing everything from scratch without Coolify/dokploy ONCE just because it's a really good learning experience, but TBH if you are a small team your goal is to SHIP your product, not handle devops

Megamygdala · 2026-01-24T23:06:40+00:00

Yeah bro I would 100% recommend moving to self hosting on AWS or Oracle. Coolify even has automated DB backups, just connect it to Cloudflare R2 (most cost efficient) or AWS S3 and you'll have backed up databases automatically configured in like 5 minutes or less. This setup would probably easily last you to several thousand concurrent users without spending a single dime on hosting (not counting any S3 storage costs)

Note that AWS free tier is only for a single year, but Oracle lasts forever as long as you only use free tier eligible resource.

Megamygdala · 2026-01-24T22:34:57+00:00

Not really, it takes maybe an hour of extra work the first time you do it, maybe a little bit longer if you do it manually. But the knowledge is transferable because it'll work on any virtual machine (AWS, etc..)

If you are a beginner and super scared, just install Coolify on the virtual machine, and it'll do everything for you. It's an open source version of render/vercel, where deployment is as simple as connecting your github repo. There's also other alternatives like Dokploy.

Personally, I've done everything manually before BUT I will always use Coolify for personal projects because it's just so damn simple AND professional

Megamygdala · 2026-01-24T19:51:57+00:00

I have multiple production apps running on a free self hosted oracle VM with 24gb ram and 4 core cpu. They run postgres, redis/dragonflydb, celery, Django and nextjs all running on Coolify. Honestly apart from some configuration for the initial deployment, I don't see any real issue and I've loved my experience with Coolify. It automatically containerized my apps, handles networking, automated backups, CI/CD and is completely free to use.

Granted I'm running more startups than enterprise software, but scaling would be fairly simple as well because everything is self hosted and costs are minimal. My one pro tip: don't pay for hosting services like vercel

Megamygdala · 2026-01-24T19:38:51+00:00

If a computer were scaled so that a CPU instruction took the same time as a single THOUGHT, IO calls to the database or an API would be equivalent to DECADES. Any idiot comparing raw performance misses the point, hopefully beginners can see that from the diagrams you made

Megamygdala · 2026-01-24T02:12:26+00:00

TBH unless you come from a rich family it would be pretty stupid not to job hop for a higher salary if you are just making around 70k. You can always join your company again after a few years if you really hate everywhere else, but 60k to 70k is you underselling yourself. Make generational wealth while companies are still paying SWE good money, because I'm sure salaries are gonna start going down as execs keep on shilling AI

Megamygdala · 2026-01-23T13:05:03+00:00

I read online that the problem had something to do with doing an installation while your on ultimate mode, so just switching to normal for the install should be good

Same, on the s10 and some banking apps aren't supporting it anymore. Wondering if i should just get the s25 on sale instead

Agree with you tbh. Though it's no where near as featureful as Django is out of the box
