DEV Community: padaki-pavan

Dev's, how do you convince yourself into working for something that you know is clearly unethical?

For ex: building spyware, collecting unwanted user data, etc. We all hear how certain companies have shady practices with their products but there's usually a team behind it. I'm wondering why hasn't the tech community United against these practices ( but have strongly United against non technical issues like BLM movement).

What documentation should I ask before I quit from a fully remote job?

What's the best way to connect to an machine behind CGNAT.

padaki-pavan — Fri, 27 Mar 2020 15:13:41 +0000

I have a server at home , but my ISP is CGNAT, and I can't connect to it directly from the internet. I've used tailscale and FRP to connect with it.

What's the best way to do it? Port forwarding from my router is not an option for me.

Must try Docker feature

padaki-pavan — Wed, 25 Mar 2020 19:08:37 +0000

Working on docker can be time and disk consuming process. I discovered this feature recently, I feel like its really underrated.

Remote host via ssh

export DOCKER_HOST=ssh://user@123.432.543.234

setting this DOCKER_HOST flag will use your remote machine where docker is installed as the default host.

My workflow

I stored the above flag in my shell profile (zsh) and whenever I want to push some code, I update my docker-compose file and simply run respective build and start command and everything is pushed to my remote host automatically and securely using ssh, and without running a single container on my local machine. There's no need for me to have complex github actions and heroku setups etc. It just works!

Its been a real life saver for me, hope someone out there will find it useful as-well.
