I use a Java backend with a React frontend at work. It works fine with us and it’s not going anywhere anytime soon.

I only use it for reverse proxies. I still find Apache easier for web serving, but terrible for setting up reverse proxies. So I use the advantages of each one.

I updated my comment above with some more details now that I’m not on lunch.

Reverse proxy is actually super easy with nginx. I have an nginx server at the front of my server doing the reverse proxy and an Apache server hosting some of those applications being proxied.

Basically 3 main steps:

• Setup up the DNS with your hoster for each subdomain.

• Setup your router to port forward for each port.

• Setup nginx to do the proxy from each subdomain to each port.

DreamHost let’s me manage all the records I want. I point them to the same IP as my server:

This is my config file:

server {
    listen 80;
    listen [::]:80;

    server_name photos.my_website_domain.net;

    location / {
        proxy_pass http://127.0.0.1:2342;
        include proxy_params;
    }
 }

 server {
    listen 80;
    listen [::]:80;

    server_name media.my_website_domain.net;

    location / {
        proxy_pass http://127.0.0.1:8096;
        include proxy_params;
    }
}

And then I have dockers running on those ports.

root@website:~$ sudo docker ps
CONTAINER ID   IMAGE                          COMMAND                  CREATED       STATUS       PORTS                                                      NAMES
e18157d11eda   photoprism/photoprism:latest   "/scripts/entrypoint…"   4 weeks ago   Up 4 weeks   0.0.0.0:2342->2342/tcp, :::2342->2342/tcp, 2442-2443/tcp   photoprism-photoprism-1
b44e8a6fbc01   mariadb:11                     "docker-entrypoint.s…"   4 weeks ago   Up 4 weeks   3306/tcp                                                   photoprism-mariadb-1

So if you go to photos.my_website_domain.net that will navigate the user to my_website_domain.net first. My nginx server will kick in and see you want the ‘photos’ path, and reroute you to basically http://my_website_domain.net:2342. My PhotoPrism server. So you could do http://my_website_domain.net:2342 or http://photos.my_website_domain.net. Either one works. The reverse proxy does the shortcut.

Hope that helps!

Off-site backups that are still local is brilliant.

Ah good catch

That’s like saying “we can cover this switch on the wall that will blow up your house so you can’t flip it.” I would feel better if the switch wasn’t even there. And now I’m wondering what other switches exist in my house that I don’t know about. The trust has already been shattered and I’ll never feel safe.

Adobe also recently snuck into their ToS that they could use whatever you made with their products for training AI and then gaslit everyone saying “we never said that” and changed their ToS. You know where you can’t access my stuff? Offline.

Oh shit. Does that stand for file system?

I really thought you were going to mention “Upload” on Prime. Same creator as the office.

That’s true, but these are also the same people who say they are a 9/10 in Java at career fairs. I’ve been working in Java for 10+ years and I’d still only consider myself an 8/10 maybe.

Correct. It’s mainly used for quick helper methods where you don’t need an object context like the Math class. It’s also used for class variables like out stream in the System class.

So. Many. People think it means it’s a constant variable.

This is our approach when we ask what is system, out, and println in System.out.println(). Just talk it out. Look at capitalization.

We eliminate half our candidates when they can’t even answer what is static in Java. Or what is object oriented programming. Ours is less coding tests and more explaining Java concepts.

It inserts the master changes before the task branch ones.

Kind of. Both merge and rebase result in the branches “synced up” but they do it in different ways.

Merge is making a batter for cookies, having a bowl for dry ingredients (task branch) and a bowl for wet ingredients, (master branch) making them separately and then just dumping the dry bowl into the wet bowl (merge).

Rebase is taking a time machine back to before you started mixing the dry ingredients, mix all the wet ingredients first then add the dry ones on top of that in the same bowl.

It’s really hard to create an analogy for this.

Merge is taking all the code from the master branch and combining it with the task branch, resulting in a commit for just the merge itself.

Rebase is “re-basing” where your task branch was created from off the master branch. It essentially takes all the commits from master that happened since you branched, REWRITES THE HISTORY of your task branch by inserting those master branch commits before all your existing commits, and effectively makes your task branch look like it was branched yesterday instead of like 4 weeks ago. You changed where your task branch originated on the master. You moved its base.

Atlassian does a fantastic writeup on this.

Showing who how to pirate? I only download legal open source applications with my torrents.

I can’t believe I didn’t realize the double rr after sonar and radar is mimicking pirates.

Cue the Republicans trying to ban HTML from our Internet to protect the kids. Yeah, you do that…
