Auto update. Works like a charm, except PostgreSQL. For me it’s good enough and even though works with containers, where they don’t recommend it. I do have backups and for my private time, I don’t get paid, so it should be as maintenance as possible from my side.

I do check from time to time if something is broken and I noticed a container where they removed a version tag, I was using. The “biggest” thing that was broken, was my gitea server where they changed the config for the default Theme.

Also that’s why I hate PostgreSQL. It requires manual labor for updating. Had a recipe Docker and they cut support for previous major version quickly. Not good. That stuff could break, ist an option with every update. This is why backups exist. As a single user, it’s not a problem. For a big system, I wouldn’t do auto updates, so I can check if everything works.

Except that there exist multiple physical layouts and then keys can be missing and some keys are shaped different.

I program like I learned it? I use my German QWERTZ layout. A lot of keys are different, yes, but I grew up with this layout and I’m used to it. Imagine giving me a US QWERTY layout and I would misstype every time. I even hate it when Windows swtiches my keyboard layout, even though I removed the shortcuts to it and I misstype constantly. Heck even Visual Studio switched my shortcuts and it sucked.

After some time I realized that (Game) Devs suck, because they forget that other layouts exist. Its not a big deal, but at some point I realized that the Chats on T, Y, U makes much more sense on a QWERTY Layout. Also Markdown with ` kinda sucks. For a codeblock, I need to hold shift and press the key that is left of backspace 3 times and then one space, because when I press it once, nothing happens but pressing it a second time, 2 appear. Pressing space let it appear directly. Or I type 4 and remove one.

But this it what I’m used to. And if I ever would work outside Germany, I will bring my own QWERTZ keyboard and require them to install the German Keyboard. I don’t need a German UI. I have all programming related software in English, because its easier to google stuff.
