Automate your deploy with git

Most developers have nowaday migrated to Git from arcane, older legacy systems, and this is for good. There are many different ways to use it, you might follow a Github pull/request workflow, or you might have some different code-review strategy, including using Gerrit.

We use it because we know that there our code is (mostly) safe.

But we are just scratching the surface, here, because Git can be used to keep track of deployments as well, and be a consistent part of a deployment pipeline. That is true whether you want to deploy to a test server, or to production.

Set up your own mail server

Claim back your mail

Most people have casual emails such as Gmail, Yahoo, Microsoft or other free providers: that might be OK, in a sense. Most companies in the IT industry have their own domain names for professional use, but they entirely give up the ownership of their data by subscribing to the same services that random users have for unprofessional, sporadic use.

This is stupid.

I think companies and institution should by default own their data.

Managing your own mail server is a way to own your data.

Sometimes you would want to be in your office, because you need to press that very button, just now, and you wish you had not left, you need to come back, start your machine again, start all the environment, double check if it’up. And all this because you moved, you had to be somewhere else:
