Short notes on tech 45/2025

Learning

How not to lose your job to AI
The skills AI will make more valuable (and how to learn them)

CI/CD

Building a GitOps CI/CD Pipeline with GitHub Actions (SOC 2)
A nice walkthrough of building a CI/CD pipeline using GitHub Actions, with a focus on meeting SOC 2 compliance rules. (from Devops Weekly #697)

Web development

A lightweight proof-of-work captcha
“Cap looks like a solid alternative to the typical CAPTCHA solutions: reCAPTCHA, hCaptcha, Cloudflare Turnstile, etc. Instead of making humans solve complex puzzles, it requires SHA-256 proof-of-work computations. Cap is an open source JS implementation.It’s customizable and offers a standalone Docker image with a REST API so it can be used from any backend language.” (from Changelog News)

Tools and software

Open source alternative to Trello
“At its core, Trello’s “list of lists” is a very powerful organizational tool. Unfortunately, all the cruft that accumulated around those lists of lists over the years soured me on the product. Kan (cool domain alert: kan.bn) looks today a lot like Trello looked back when I first fell in love with it. Also it’s open source, self-hostable, and easy to start on their cloud.”

mise-en-place
“The front-end to your dev env. Like asdf (or nvm or pyenv but for any language), it manages dev tools like node, python, cmake, terraform, and hundreds more.”
