Update 116: Self-hosting update: the backup ran. The restore drill did not. Guess what I am doing tonight.

PHP will PHP. The workaround is ugly and it works. [120.3]

The Eindhoven version of this story is even weirder. (73)

Come to Muiderberg tomorrow, we can debug it on a bench. [120.4]

Stopped using a CDN in front of a static site. Latency went up, bills and mystery headers went down.

Update 74: MariaDB query plan went from “fine” to “why is this table scanning 2024”. Indexes are a lifestyle.

Officially: we are looking into it. Unofficially: yes. [120.5]

On it. I will check the probe from Naarden when I am home. [13.1]

Found a bench in Leiden that is not next to a speaker. I am not telling you which one.

That pothole ate my pump. I am taking this personally. [120.6]

Update 75: Quiet evening in Bussum. Someone is practicing saxophone and they are almost good. Rooting for them.

Not sure this belongs in a public space, but the technical bit is fair. [13.2]

Work identity thought of the day: private spaces should leak nothing. Not even the joke.

Update 76: Registrar panel just showed “pending” in four languages. Internationalisation of despair.

Seconded. Also: hydrate. You sound like you have been in DNS for six hours. [13.3]

That matches what I saw. Timestamp even lines up. [120.8]

I had the opposite experience in Utrecht CS. Maybe it is a platform thing. [13.4]

Three herons at Pampus. They looked like they had a union.

Update 77: Reminder: the off-leash field by Almere Haven is closed until Thursday for maintenance. Use the dune path.

If it flips to complete with no mail, that is still “success”. Quiet success. [13.5]
