I'm looking to get a degree to better facilitate an exit for myself and significant other from the United States. (Looking at New Zealand, Germany, Ireland) Are online only degrees from the likes of ASU and similar any better or worse than one from in-person universities? (Mechanical or Electrical engineering is the plan)

I've worked at my current job 5+ years. The last 3 have been exceeding difficult, jaded and not inline with the corporate "culture". Biggest issue I have is the corporate culture of buy, squeeze, drop. Whatever makes profits today.

Recently got an offer at a different company, a startup. Initial offer on pay is about 1% more than current base pay. But the 401k match is much less, no bonus structure, though there are stock options (with a long vesting period).

I'm torn. I feel the current company runs like a startup still, even though they were bought by corporate 10yrs ago. So the new culture might be very similar, but with an actual potential of windfall if it gets to ipo.

I have a lot of freedom in the current position, hours as I set them (all onsite), with minimal pushback or oversite. I average 5hrs overtime a week, though would say my workload could be done in 15hrs/week at full tilt. Super stagnant and most work is reactive, "fixing" problems, that'll likely be the exact same problem in less than a year again. Unlikely to have near the same freedom in the new position.

Offered position is in a field I'm very interested in, and could lead to extreme specialization, but I do not know the long term growth possibilities beyond it being extremely niche.

Offer at new position is initially $1/hr more than the recruiter claimed was the top of the budgeted. And I haven't pushed on it (yet? Hesitant on knowing if/how far to push that with an offer already extended)

I feel so burned out at the current job, but getting an offer elsewhere has rehighlighted a lot of the benefits at the current place.

What would you do? Do I take it? Do I push more at the new place for a better base? Do I leverage the offer for more $$ at the current place?

I've been selfhosting for a bit, but have never really gotten a solid understanding of Traefik.

What I'd like to do is have 3 machines, 1 as an "entry point" where Traefik forwards by domain to the two other machines. Ie I route to anything.domain1.com and the entry machine forwards to machine 1, anything.domain2.com forwards to machine 2.

Then on each machine have another instance of Traefik to manage the applications that machine hosts.

Is this even possible? Without using docker swarm?

Thanks.

Had a thought, but some quick searching didn't really give me much.

Is there such a thing as a browser that respects privacy, and can be synched through self hosted means?

I'd be looking for tab sync, bookmark, history, etc.

100% of people who experience it, die.

So, I'm trying to setup self hosted rustdesk. I have it running in a docker container. I have allowed the ports through the firewall. I have setup the same ports forwarded in my router, to the server running rustdesk. I have set the private key on both clients.

on systems internal network, I can setup the clients to connect with internal IP. And get the "ready" at the bottom. But key mismatch error when trying to actually connect between two internal systems.

If I setup the client with my external up (and I've tried domain name as well) I get a delay then, "not ready please check your connection", as well as the key mismatch.

I feel I'm running into two different problems, but I can't find any hints looking through the container logs (in fact, once the containers are running, I don't really get any logs populating when trying to connect a client)

Any suggestions? I'm at a loss here.

Any tool can be a hammer if you use it wrong enough.

A good hammer is designed to be a hammer and only used like a hammer.

If you have a fancy new hammer, everything looks like a nail.

I've been using RealVNC for family computer help and have been wanting to setup a self hosted replaced for a while now, but haven't had the time. RealVNC has recently axed their free levels, so I'll use it as a reason to setup a self hosted solution.

Ideally it would be something like a web page (I have a domain and reverse proxy) where family can go, get a code or a software to run, which will then let me control their system securely.

I was considering guacamole on a pi at each location I'm likely to have to support, but this doesn't help when family is away from their home network on laptop.

What is out there for this? Have you used it? What are your experiences?

Thanks

I've been playing around with Arduino and esp for ~10yrs, just googling, copying around code snippets, and reading compiler fail logs.

I'm fed up with my lack of ability to understand larger projects and more in depth programming (pointers, objects, etc)

I'm mostly focused on embedded software (iot, iiot, etc.) So probably looking at staying with C,C++ or rust?

I'm fine with investing some $$, but don't particularly feel I want to spend more that $1k at the moment to fix my ignorance.

What bootcamps would you suggest?
