im literally losing my mind here upgraded our Remix app and now hydration errors appear on several pages: the common factor seems to be a cart item count. before teh upgrade we didnt see warnings, or maybe they were just quieter. I wanna fix the root cause…
long time lurker first post lol our Spring Boot app sits behind nginx on teh same VM. It listens on 5000. Its been fine for months, but now after a reboot we get this: if i SSH in and curl localhost:5000 i get a 200 instantly. restarting nginx fixes it for a…
so annoyed rn merged a dependency update PR and now webpack refuses to build: the error is Module not found: Cant resolve fs. the PR looked harmless, a few version bumps. id rather understand the cause than blindly revert or slap a flag on it 😤 whats the…
six months ago i chose plain HTML with a bit of JS for a weekend side project, some things went great, some things made me question my judgment. before i start the next one, Id like to compare notes. what would u pick for this kind of work today, and what…
merged a dependency update PR and now webpack reufses to build: The error is Module not found: Can't resolve 'fs'. The PR looked harmless, a few version bumps. i'd rather understand teh cause than blindly revert or slap a flag on it 🔥 What's the right way…
Got a proposal from an SEO consultant for an affiliate blog, and a big part of it revolves around word count targets. It sounded convincing in teh meeting, but afterwards i found forum posts calling it outdated. Im not trying to bash anyone, i just wanna…
so annoyed rn honest question from a four person team. Our three services and a mobile app communicate over REST and every few weeks something breaks because one side renamed a field :D gRPC with generated code sounds like it would end that. But i also hear…
I just moved our FastAPI service to a new server and set up nginx as the reverse proxy. Every request returns: the app logs show nothing, as if no request ever arrives. firewall is open, the process is running, port 3000 is listening 🤦 what on earth is…
not gonna lie this is driving me nuts merged a dependency update PR and now Vite refuses to build: the error is Cannot find module after a fresh clone 🤦 the PR looked harmless, a few version bumps. id rather understand the cause than blindly revert or slap…
My site on a managed WordPress plan keeps randomly falling over with this: A restart of the server or waiting a while fixes it, then it comes back a few days later. It got noticeably worse after restoring a backup. I'd like to understand whether the database…
im new to server side rendering and this error has me confsued: It's a Nuxt project and the error points at the user's theme preference. Locally it sometimes happens, sometimes not. A colleague says it's because of browser extensions, another says it's my…
help!! my site on shared hosting keeps randomly falling over with this: A restart of the server or waiting a while fixes it, then it comes back a few days later... it got noticeably worse after migrating to a new host. id like to understand whether the…
upgraded our SvelteKit app and now hydration errors appear on several pages: the common factor seems to be a random ID on a form, before teh upgrade we didnt see warnings, or maybe they were just quieter... i want to fix the root cause rather than silence…
Developer here, but WordPress isn't my daily thing. A client's site broke after a bulk plugin update: The classic critical error page. Their setup has around twenty plugins including a security plugin... i want to find teh exact cause instead of randomly…
im literally losing my mind here starting an internal dashboard and Im leaning towards React... part of me thinks its teh sensible choice, part of me wonders if Im just picking what i know or what looks good on a CV.. :/ id like to hear from people whove…
After a theme update, our Largest Contentful Paint went from comfortably green to this: PageSpeed says the LCP element is a slider's first slide xD Nothing about it changed visually, same file, same size. Yet it clearly paints much later now. I'm trying to…
long time lurker first post lol i swear I installed it. pip install dotenv finished cleanly, pip list shows it, and when i run the app by hand everything works... then VS Codes Run button starts it and i get this: same server, same repo, same user (i…
hmmmm ok we're a four person team running a payment and an inventory service, today they all talk JSON over HTTP and it works fine, but somenoe proposed moving internal traffic to gRPC: stronger contracts, generated clients, less hand written glue, half the…
guys pls help updates on this site have been flaky for a while. Today, updating twelve plugins at once failed with an error about not being able to create a directory, and now teh site shows: i'd like to fix both problems: get the site back now, and figure…
ugh. merged a depednency update PR and now webpack refuses to build: The error is node gyp rebuild falied. The PR looked harmless, a few version bumps. Id rather understand teh cause than blindly revert or slap a flag on it. Whats the right way to read this…
ugh. this one is driving me crazy. after a reboot, a chunk of requests fail with this page: not all of them, maybe one in ten 👍 the Spring Boot app health check is green the whole time. my manager asked if we 'turned it off and on again' 😂 we did 🤦…
Were about to design the internal APIs for six microservices, greenfield. i keep going back and forth between plain REST with an OpenAPI spec and gRPC with protobuf. Performance is not our bottleneck right now, consistency is. What would u pick, and why? we…
accessibility discussion time. I keep seeing strong opinions about automated audit scores, and both sides sound very suree of themselves, for a government contractor's site, we want to do the right thing, not just teh thing that looks good on a checklist,…
ugh. woke up, opened my site, and instead of my homepage there's one grey sentence: I think it happened after a bulk plugin udpate. wp admin shows the same message, so I cant log in to undo anything. I suspect a WooCommerce add on beacuse it updated…
ok weird one my Remix app loads fine, but teh console is full of hydration warnings: the mismatch seems to be around teh users theme preference. on first load I can see it flash one value, then switch to another. everything technically works, but I dont like…
