A small explanation how to configure the Kestrel .NET Core web server to use Unix domain sockets on Linux, when acting as a backend server behind Nginx.
Code taken from the default .NET Core MVC application template and only slightly modified.
uWSGI is a widely accepted standard for deploying web applications in many different frameworks and languages, though it is particularly popular in the Python and to some lesser extent, the Ruby ecosystems.
This example shows a typical configuration for a Django web application in Python 3, using uWSGI in emperor mode.
A curated list of things I encountered when using the Go language. Most of this stuff is probably mentioned elsewhere, so this should be seen as some kind of personal reference. You may or may not find anything useful here.
This will be updated frequently or occasionally, depending on what I may find noteworthy.
Thunderbird has been my e-mail client of choice for many years on various operating systems and has been doing well so far.
The next major version (60) is just lurking around the corner and will bring quite a number of new things, particularly under the hood.

I’m currently in curious mode, trying out some new things. After learning the basics of Rust a couple of months ago, I’m now back to a language I had first contact with many years ago - D.
Lots of progress has apparently been made in recent years and D presents itself as a complete language with high productivity value. At least, that’s what D apologets claim.

A include-able fragment to build a simple tab control in a Jekyll page. Simple and flexible, can be adopted easily to other static page generators.
