Hey everyone! My win this week was releasing Lanet on GitHubβ€”a lightweight and powerful LAN communication tool designed to make peer-to-peer networking a breeze. Lanet enables secure message exchange between devices on the same network, featuring built-in encryption, network discovery, and support for both targeted and broadcast messaging.

What makes it stand out? It’s got an intuitive Ruby API and a handy command-line interface, so whether you’re coding or just need quick network operations, it’s super easy to use. Think AES-256-GCM encryption, automatic device scanning, and the ability to ping hosts or send messagesβ€”all wrapped in a simple package.

I’m thrilled to share this with the community and would love for you to check it out at github.com/davidesantangelo/lanet. Let me know what you thinkβ€”your feedback would mean a lot! Looking forward to hearing from you!

Got a little emotional with a comment on a GitHub project:

One of the changes I requested to actualbudget.org/ is going to be on the next releases, making bank control a lot easier in Brazil.

Despite all time restrictions, I'm HR 50 on Monster Hunter Wilds

Shipped some improvements to the DEV/Forem feed to help elevate higher quality vs clickbait and AI slop etc. Still an ongoing battle but improvements being made :)

Yeah there is a ton empty articles with shallow teachings, so I hope you can keep making progress of rewarding people who put in the work to write quality in depth tutorials

Our company had a overly complex and customized Umbraco project running on a old windows server. Used the week to remove all custom logic and convert it back into a standard solution, that now runs in docker on a RedHat OpenShift cluster :D We have multiple projects with the same setup in Umbraco, so i ended up making a small script that took care of all the data transformation and project setup :D So instead of doing the same thing multiple times, i can just press a button and everything is done :D

Tightened the integration between my blog and DEV. I'm posting to DEV via the REST API now instead of using RSS. I wrote a couple posts about this in the kickoff series.

hey all!
my win this week was solving a frustrating faiss-node import error on AWS Fargate. The issue stemmed from an implicit pnpm version discrepancy between local (v9) and Docker (v10). Pnpm v10's change to disable automatic native binding post-install caused the failure. Explicitly specifying pnpm v9 in the Dockerfile resolved the problem.
It took me a while to figure it out
