I have a 9:5 job and work also alone on a side project where I have to do tech related tasks as well as market sale (content creation, emails and sometime calls).

So, I'm asking if you are in same position as me, how are you organizing yourself to do everything ?

I use a VPS from Contabo to host my web application

I need some advice regarding :

1. Monitoring performance and resources

2. Logging errors and other messages

3. Backup DB and media file

Why ?

Because I think it's important;

My web app has 132 users, it's a side project I want to monetize, and I need to make sure there won't be anything unexpected or abnormal happens

So, I need some advices from you

What do you think ? What can I do ? What is perfect ?

As a software engineer, what could be all the KPI's we have to take into account to evaluate an individual salary raise ? In Jira they're some KPI's but the're related to team performance, not to individual.

HN is a good website that have good retention of users and also good quality of content. I'm asking how is it possible ? Is there moderators or the only thing that make it good like it is, is the voting system ?

I am a Python developer who loves Flask and uses Flask extensions in my applications.

Over time, I realized that some extensions are so used and become in some way the standard. Then after that, the maintainer of the extension is not available anymore and it is impossible to continue to improve the extension or fixing bugs. As an example there are flask-user, flask-restplus, flask-themes, and so on...

I think it's time that the Flask community in general or Pallets Project in particular think about having a global community that will manage the extensions and maintain them, it's really important.

One suggestion would be to have something like OCA (Odoo Community Association) that maintains modules from the Odoo Open Source community.

Let's leave our egos aside and build a real Flask community.

At my company we need to connect our system right now to 4 other services.

Later, we could have many services as possible

But also, some services can connect to our system

We have 2 solutions:

1- connect the services directly but we'll have many point of connection depending on services we interact with

2- use a middleware like Zato in case to have a single point of connection

What would be the best approach ?
