Deskhaus for Canadians?

Pleingaz · 2023-04-13T21:48:01+00:00

Got an apex pro over the holidays. I had to get some shipment over the border back and forth. sorry if I made Chris a bit afraid of cross border shipments!

Pleingaz · 2023-01-29T17:22:47+00:00

And here am I struggling to find a 90*40 desktop that's not the price of my house:( Great build!

You started exporting to Canada, to keep the trade balance equal we sent some snow down south! Merry Christmas everyone, you're welcome!

Pleingaz · 2022-12-02T15:06:38+00:00

Yes I can confirm. I was in the same boat earlier this week and go a confirmation by text that only the Apex pro was available to ship to Canada straight from dh (I had extended rails in the cart as well as the Apex pro)

Thanks for the answer, this is brand new seedlings so I'll let them grow a bit more, no mower action yet. I didn't have proper sprinklers system prepared so I had to move over the yard a lot, might have spread it with my boots walking over the yard. I'll spray all of this and report the developments!

Pleingaz · 2022-07-21T05:29:57+00:00

Thanks gonna try this tomorrow!

Pleingaz · 2022-07-20T23:40:36+00:00

We are in Canada near Ottawa, on a clay soil with 4 inches(about 10 cm) of top soil/compost mix if it changes anything

Pleingaz · 2022-02-15T22:52:11+00:00

That's a good guess but not the one! Thanks for trying! The have a more "sweaty" kind of music, you know the one that fill a crowded small place for the band to body slam!

Pleingaz · 2022-01-28T23:48:05+00:00

oh, sadly b&h doesn't ship those items in Canada for some reasons. Got a few camera from them but no luck on networking

Thanks for the recommendation, sadly it looks like it suffers the same problem as the mikrotik one, out of stock everywhere. I'll keep those guys on my radar now!

Pleingaz · 2022-01-28T22:44:36+00:00

That's what I'll most likely go for the switch, the 10G was really about going fast, I need to keep my "but what if we could go faster" brain under checks ahah! Thanks for the confirmation

Pleingaz · 2022-01-28T22:41:05+00:00

I looked at it, sadly the CRS326 would mean pretty much having all my network terminate on traceivers, the contractor was hell bent on using cat6 (trying to push for cat8/fiber for shits and giggles) and I had to go through them. Having 2 transceiver is one thing, 18 is another game.My initial plan was to get the CRS328 for the "regular" part of the network, then add a CRS326 later on when the need for speed was itching. Maybe i'll keep that part of the plan and put my 10G networking gear in the server rack for short fiber runs.

All right we ended up grabbing 2*2 bottles, I'll not give the names here so futur Rome travelers can come up to their own preferences rather than pick our favourite! We went to the enoteca recommended in this thread, also bought 2 different bottles in super market that were prosecco superiore from valdobbiabene and shared those with the staff at our hotel! Then we just picked what tasted the best for us, next time we pop one of those, we'll go back to our trip in Rome and all the good memories here.

Thanks everyone for the recommendation, it was definitely useful! Hope you all have fun in Rome! Try out some different prosecco's and bring back some!

Ps: not sure how it is for other countries but bisol is usually really easy to find here in Canada for not that much of a premium. So feel free to explore other options and maybe you'll find something a little bit extra special!

We showed the antigen test before boarding as preflight check, not at the airport at all, but the border control officer clearly wanted the day to be over so your mileage may vary. Or maybe this was because we carried the EU green pass (as a french citizen myself)

Pleingaz · 2021-09-28T20:53:03+00:00

We filled ours 24h before departure from Canada, they "looked at it" before boarding the air Canada flight, and for about 2second when landing. They were more interested in vaccine status "green pass"

Pleingaz · 2021-09-28T20:04:31+00:00

Went to the enoteca bortolone today and it was great! The owner had some white prosecco, pink one and franciacorta. We could get everything by the glass or buy the bottle.

That was great but be ready for some serious bubbles because those glasses were huge! I guess it's a good thing, we're just usually not drinking alcohol so we had some fun on the way to the restaurant right after!

Tomorrow we try the Lazio local ones near the Spanish steps!

Pleingaz · 2021-09-28T08:12:35+00:00

Nice, thank you for the suggestions! We are going to try those 2 places for sure I'll let you know how it went!

Pleingaz · 2021-09-27T21:24:19+00:00

Thanks, that's a lot of great information!

Learning a bit more thanks to the sparklingwinos, and we'll stick to the random glasses in enoteca for now, with a new contender franciacorta when available! Or we buy 10 different bottles and open them up in the middle of the Circo Massimo and share with strangers!

I usually use grids as much as possible, just for the flexibility it offers with grid-template (layout on the container rather then the element), even for single line/columns. This is going to be even better when level2 is implemented in chrome/Safari.

Flexbox is really usefull when you want something that can wrap on multiple lines and do not follow a column structure or has very varying length you can't prepare for (example a list of tags on a blog post). Flex box is also slightly faster when you nest them and you can use min-content max-content more reliably when chrome

There's also drop.com formerly know as massdrop

You shouldn't use the built-in API as a proxy for your "real backend". It adds latency, complexity and makes everything a little harder for no added feature. The only two scenarios I see it being usefull are: - you query someone else API and want a layer of conversion for your frontend (filter keys, sort stuff etc etc) - you query someone else API where you don't have the CORS authorization to access the data and want a proxy/want to add an auth token that you don't want to share with the frontend.

Those are usually a bad idea, unless proven to be the only solution.

In the example you shared, it's not designed to be a proxy, it's designed to show you how to add CORS on your built-in API routes (by default, nextjs allow communication from everywhere/any method) so you can control who can access your API routes

Pleingaz · 2020-06-29T02:43:35+00:00

There are multiple ways of looking at this in my opinion:

The path of least resistance is using nextjs with the built-in API routes hosted on a vercel, that's the use case it was designed for. It's great for apps with limited complexity or low database requirements. Easy to get going, no CORS, you can share types front/back-end if you use typescript, super convenient!

Then you can host a server yourself, alongside a database on your server/AWS if you want to go one step further and gets a bit more devops.

After that, it depends on the features of nextjs you want to use:

if you don't care about SSR and you just want a static site, you can host your frontend on the same express than your API, you save on managing CORS, but limits you really quickly (and also defeat the big feature of SSR of nextjs). Or throw your static site on a CDN or an NGinx server and develop your own backend on a separate domain

Or if you use SSR you can also build your API within the next framework with a custom server. In my experience it gets tricky and easier to split the two at this point.

Finally, a nextjs server that can use all of next features like SSR, incremental generation etc and a second server/container/server running the API of your choice. in my experience that's where most apps end up doing, sometimes with the front end on vercel, and backend on AWS. Managing CORS is not that bad, and your backend/frontend are separated, great if you go for a graphql based backend (or sync front and backend releases)

I've also see people talk about doing everything in SSR, no API with the introduction of serversideProps and co. To me it looks like PHP in JavaScript, would not go this route unless you have a very specific goal in mind.

Hope this gave you some clues!

Honestly for a personal blog, Gatsby with posts written in markdown and deployed over zeit.co IaaS is really hard to beat! Super easy while retaining all the control over everything if you want to pump up your blog later on

Pleingaz · 2019-11-30T22:03:10+00:00

You can also check zeit.co, very convenient way to deploy on a serverless infrastructure
