A personal recap of things I explored, learned, or questioned in tech this week.
🔧 What I Worked On
- Dev environment for quarkus and typescript in a docker container
- Skills heatmap
- This is the first project that I’m creating from scratch using Codex
- I’m like the experience.
- Clearly it speed up the prototyping, but it creates an ugly and unmanteinable code. It is not a big problem now, cause it is a small project but definitely it is an issue in the long run.
🌐 Homelab Updates
- Update Immich to v1.143.1 and LXC’s Debian
- Updated all packages of each Proxmox node
- Notes structure
- I created a new structure of my notes with better title, description and image for each space
📚 What I Learned
- Finally I learned how to use No Machine
- I felt too fool with the fact that I just need to have NoMachine install in both computers. I thought I need to install some server/protocol like xrdp.
- Docker volumes has extra flags
- :ro → read-only
- :rw → read/write
- Others: :cached, :delegated, :z, :Z
🧠 Things That Surprised Me
- I broke a lot of resources when I migrated from Ceph to a normal NVMe disk
- This made me think about the backup plan.
- I need to create a good backup plan with replications and a backup test
- I have some disks and I need to take advantage of the free storage in cloud for the most important and not heavy stuff
❓ Open Questions or Doubts
- I have no idea how to recover a machine that doesn’t boot. I need to learn how to do this process, it is a good simulation
- For some reason, I’ve tried to install a Home Assistant from scratch and it failed. I’m worried by the fact I updated many packages in all nodes.

💬 Final Thoughts
- I’m so frustrated by the fact that I lost part of my services. They’re all secondary ones, but still importants and it’ll take time to recover them all.
- Anyways, that is the way we learn. By living in our “flesh” the problems that can happen in big scale.
