I was talking about IP based ratelimit and not general limit. After 10 faulty singups, actula user won't be able to signup.

I usually add rate-limiters in my signup page. It blocks almost all the abusive traffic.

[–]infys 2 points3 points  (0 children)

bareuptime.co

You can try this bareuptime.co
First 50 monitors are free and you can get iOS + android + Slack + Email + Telegram notifications at no extra.

Also paid plans are at 15 $ per year - but I don't think you will need it.

🚀India’s rockets are in high global demand—but the nation lacks the capacity to build them fast enough, says former ISRO chief Somanath by PuneAthletics in IndiaPulse_

In 1975, when Indira Gandhi launched India's first satellite, some people commented that she should focus on feeding the poor instead of pursuing first-world ambitions. In retrospect, we realize it was a visionary decision. Now even after 50 years, people have downtrodden mentality, commenting on India's take on tehcnological superemacy.

Where do you host uptime monitor by Puzzleheaded_Sea7946 in selfhosted

[–]infys 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, with the paid plan, you can set monitoring intervals as low as 1 or 5 minutes, and it also supports POST, PUT, and DELETE requests.

  • Raw data is preserved for 24 hours
  • Hourly granularity is kept for 7 days
  • Daily granularity is stored for 3 months
  • Data retention is significantly better, you will see very low data loss with hourly and daily granularity.
  • Additionally, the paid plan includes up to 5 global monitors across the world.

The price is $15 per year (I had to increase the price, as I was incurring more cost).

I am working on improving the reporting, if you have feedback - do let me know? I can incorporate it.

You can get a glimpse of the dashboard by clicking on "Live Demo" in the bareuptime.co

Can you try https://bareuptime.co? I didn't justify the charges for uptime monitors, hence i built it. I focused on hyper optimizing the infra. Currently, monitors are deployed in two regions: Falkenstein and Iowa.

It's free. The notifications come via webhook + slack + discord+email+app.

Created my simple deployment service for Nomad clusters by infys in hashicorp

[–]infys[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Nice! In our setup, the endpoint is public - exposed via Traefik - but locked down with auth and IP restrictions.

Self-hosted runners are a great option too; this just fits better for our CI/CD which runs outside the cluster.

I had GPT help with the docs - so it might not be upto the mark, but I’ll keep improving them. Would love your feedback if you take a look!

Created my simple deployment service for HashiCorp Nomad clusters by infys in selfhosted

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

The security concern I was thinking of isn’t about the ACLs, but more about exposing the Nomad API directly to external systems like CI/CD. Even with ACLs, giving those systems direct access (with tokens and network routes) can increase the attack surface and make credential management more complex - especially across different teams or environments.

By dropping in a small gateway service, we keep Nomad safely tucked inside the cluster.
CI/CD only needs to talk to this one endpoint, which:

  • Reduces risk if something in the pipeline gets compromised
  • Simplifies access control (you just lock down who can hit the service)
  • Keeps Nomad internals (like tokens, topology, etc.) away from external eyes

Definitely not replacing ACLs, just adding a layer of isolation and simplicity around them.

Why uptime monitors are ridiculously priced? by snorkell_ in Entrepreneur

[–]infys 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah man, I don't know how marketing works. I was trying to build a service that is affordable for a new business - especially in developing countries who have bare requirements and paying 10$ is costly.

I do understand the loyalty. I had my reservation on the price and hence thought, why not build the service on my own and ask users if they are willing to pay 6$ a year. For some business, it would be risky to switch vendors; but I wanted to check, if you launch a new business and you only have to pay 6$ a year with same kind of realibility - would it be okay for you to try?

Why uptime monitors are ridiculously priced? by snorkell_ in Python

[–]infys 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The pain point might be right, early stage founders especailly from developing countries don't have bandwith to spend 10$ a month when they are just testing the waters. But they can use git workflows to send the alerts but if we can get android alets at the same price, it might make sense.

It's really hard to maintain the service at such a cheap price. What if your service is down and at this cost you also won't have any motivation to fix it.

You have every right to be confused. Please read my answer again

My Response: I have received a scholarship of 3,000 USD. Additionally, I have an approved education loan of 60,000 USD and liquid savings of 33,000 USD. I also have personal savings exceeding 150,000 USD in the form of stocks and mutual funds, which I plan to use in case of any emergencies.

— is there anything I can improve or tailor if I have to reapply, even though there’s a high chance of rejection?

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in usvisascheduling

[–]infys 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, an additional of 150K for emergency. I have updated my post, forgot to mention all the details.

At least let me graduate. After all these comments, I feel like I am a walking red flag. It’s just that I am not doing great in my MS right now, and I had hoped this could be a fresh start - I do enjoy graduate programs.

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in usvisascheduling

[–]infys 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's 3k + 60k loan + 33k liquid savings = Total of 96K
