Cool looking Rust crate registry, Cratery. OAuth login, S3 storage. Guess could setup Litestream for DB storage as well.

Last spring we found it slightly too cold to go camping when we otherwise had the chance. Maybe time to pick up a warmer sleeping bag.

Don’t really need another camping stove… but this looks interesting

I was confused when I didn't see a Vegan label on a Silk carton. I'm not really less confused after reading the FAQ.

I was able to get tracecontext passthrough to OTel working! I was missing the opentelemetry_sdk::trace::TracerProvider which pulls in the infomation to help build the OTel data that gets sent to collectors.

A new sqlparser release pushed out my changes for supporting declare-schema! I released 0.0.1 but haven't gone through and updated my services yet.

In a month or so of using the dev version of declare-schema in my services I've had a good time! Since I wrote it with my mental model for services in mind, it works as I want it to! The library itself would probably wind up with significant data loss for others.

Interesting to see Rust Otel discussing the friction for (tokio)-tracing. Tracing with DataDog was really convenient. I always wanted to get our shop moved to Otel to eventually be able to move away from DataDog though, partially due to pricing, partially due to more adoption of Google Cloud and not wanting to ship data out just for tracing.

I lean towards wanting tokio-tracing to be a/the supported case. I haven't found a solution with Otel that I really like. The initial setup has always seemed tricky, and with a cross-cutting concern like tracing, adopting Otel seems heavyweight. A single ecosystem (Otel) across language stacks is super appealing. At this point I'm mostly writing Rust things though so that isn't a huge selling point for me.

I do finally have a tracing setup in a lib that is working well, but haven't gotten distributed tracing going yet. I'm fine adopting Otel for wire formats but I'd like to keep tracing in my app. I've yet to find a good way to thread W3C tracecontext into Otel output.

Works for me to try cleaning out a Docker registry: Docker Registry Cleaner. Keeps the last N images of each repo as determined by a label on the image.

On each deploy to my homelab I set a label on the image to be used so this cleans up images I'm no longer using.

Super alpha-y state... will likely result in data loss!

I think I've always had a pleasant time upgrading my NixOS boxes. For my homelab servers

sudo nix-channel --add https://channels.nixos.org/nixos-24.05 nixos
sudo nixos-rebuild switch --upgrade
sudo reboot

Has "just worked". Keeping most of my lab stuff in Nomad helps with this as well as there isn't much that will change at the OS level, mostly Nomad, Consul, and Vault.

I’ve been to Worthington a couple times and always enjoyed the camping spots and hikes there! The ferns are amazing, it feels like walking through a dinosaur era forest.

Had this for lunch with peanuts we had around instead of the specified almonds. Would eat again!

Charles Schwab seems to fall into a frustrating trap. An ACH transfer can be "complete" but there is still more to do (clear).

Worked on a PR for sqlparser to struct-ify some things. Part of making a SQL create table declarative way to generate SQL migrations at runtime. I had a version in Erlang before and enjoyed it enough that I want it in Rust.

sqlmo does part of the migration generation piece and I'm working to add some pieces there as well.

I missed a release of sqlparser though so the embed-able version of my lib will need to wait for merge/release before I can push my version to crates.io. The bin version of it will be something like the atlas OSS tool, but without any cloud component.
