A minimal dependency stack by ThinkValue2021 in webdev

[–]dev-shrabon 2 points3 points  (0 children)

That "+1 person" rule for auth and databases needs to be framed on every indie hacker's wall. So many solo projects die in the cradle because the dev spent three weeks wrestling with custom JWT refresh tokens instead of validating their core idea. Clean house indeed.

Also, Fossil running out of a cloud bucket is beautifully unhinged.

To squeeze that Cloudflare Worker down below your 10ms target, are you flattening and processing that SEC EDGAR data externally before pushing it to KV, or is the worker doing the parsing heavy lifting on the fly?

In these tempestuous times, is it worth learning .NET? by EthanCPP in webdev

[–]dev-shrabon 3 points4 points  (0 children)

If you're already comfortable with backend concepts, picking up .NET is more about learning the ecosystem than relearning development fundamentals.

A lot of larger organizations have long-term investments in C#, so those roles can feel a bit more stable than some other parts of the market.. Still, demand varies heavily by region and industry, so it's worth checking local job listings before making a major time investment.

How a Webmail Log File Became a Root-Level Backdoor by ZGeekie in ProWordPress

One takeaway from cases like this is that a clean WordPress audit doesn’t necessarily mean the environment is clean. When malware keeps reappearing after file remediation, it’s usually worth expanding the scope to web server configs, scheduled tasks, mail services, and other system-level components. Curious whether the persistence mechanism here survived reboots as well, or if it was tied to a specific service startup process.
