Data backups – dedicated solution vs. home made server

Some years ago (~10) I was puzzled by the choice between dedicated backup machine (something like one describe here: QNAP TS-231P – rok i trzy fackupy później (na szczęście z happy endem)) vs. my own setup.

I’ve seen things you people wouldn’t believe. SVN repos so big they didn’t fit on SSD. I watched spaces glitter among the dark tabs of Python. All those moments will be lost in time, like tears in rain. Time to code using new hype.

macOS – remember to check hard drives for errors

It looks like my macOS got little bit too optimistic when it comes to size of my 500GB hard drive :) It started to complain that Time Machine couldn’t complete the backup. If you have similar issue, make sure to run diagnostic of your hard drive

Spring Boot – ResponseStatusException
reason not returned in response body

At some point I have decided that I really have to return HTTP codes for some illegal invocations of my API. I have decided to use simple solution. @GetMapping("/responsestatusexception") public String getResourceThatThrowsResponseStatusException() { throw new ResponseStatusException( HttpStatus.NOT_FOUND, "Not found thrown by getResourceThatThrowsResponseStatusException"); } however, this solution has one, small drawback.
