Dude, if you’re having heart palpations, go to fucking urgent care. That shit can be lethal. Atrial fibrillation? Atrial flutter? They can cause blood clots which can cause stroke. Urgent care will know what to do, even if that’s just calling a cardiologist elsewhere to look at your EKG or even stuffing you in an ambulance and driving you to an ER.

Don’t want to take medical advice from a rando on the internet? (You shouldn’t!) Then call your goddamned nurse line. They will sort you out and tell you exactly where to go.

Good luck.

You don’t even need a star cert… The DNS challenge works for that use case as well.

I use Traefik as my main reverse proxy as well for the same reason—container niceties. But then I actually also use nginx… inside container images, like for containers that just serve static files for example.

Use the right tool for the job!

I develop a moderately popular open source project and self-host it on Gitea. But I also mirror it on GitHub and accept PRs there. And one PR submitter on GitHub said they preferred to contribute there because that’s where potential employers look for open source activity.

Could employers also look on Gitea/Forgejo? In theory, yes. But some of them literally ask for your GitHub profile on their application forms…

I use Ansible to meet this need. Whenever I want to deploy to one or more remote hosts, I run Ansible locally and it connects via SSH to the remote host(s). There, it can run Docker Compose, configure services, lay down files on the host, restart things, etc.

The site links to a site that accepts payment data. So because the author’s site is http, a MITM attacker could change the payment links from lulu.com to site-that-actually-steals-your-credit-card.com.

That’s one huge thing https provides over http… assurance of unadulterated content, including links to sites that actually deal in sensitive data.

Just pointing out that dozens of people work on each traditionally published book other than the author.
