You Don't Always Need Indexes
For ongoing monitoring of query performance, I use Percona Monitoring & Management - it's query log provides an easy way to spot frequent queries that may need optimizing.
-
Tuning ZFS for small read sizes - files use much more space than their size and high cpu use.
I cannot recommend PMM highly enough - it's free. You'll get a ton of insight into your DB's bottlenecks, and can use it to validate changes made.

How Database Indexes Affect MongoDB and Application Performance
I use the free, open-source tool Percona Monitoring and Management (PMM) for monitoring and graphing.

Idiomatic patterns you discovered in your work with Go
i don't know if this is an idiom or not but at my workplace each go repo has a separate tools/ directory, which only has 3 files `tools.go` , `go.mod` and `go.sum` https://github.com/percona/pmm/tree/main/tools

Running Databases on Kubernetes
Curious what monitoring solution you've used that's both plug-and-play and in IaC. And in any case, nothing stops you (I like this approach, actually) from running your monitoring solution in K8s. For DBs in particular, I'm a huge fan of PMM, which is a set of extremely thorough Grafana dashboards atop VictoriaMetrics, with some discovery tooling.

Recap Monthly Percona Developer Meetup Hacktoberfest
Our next project is Percona Monitoring and Management (PMM). This project is supported by Artem Gavrilov, Backend Software Engineer, and Nurlan Moldomurov, Full-Stack Engineer. PMM is a great project to contribute to during Hacktoberfest. There are minor and easy-to-do issues in Github; it is not necessary to register them in Jira. These contributions are welcome if you have any good ideas, want to improve something or simplify some process. Send your PR; the maintainers will review it as soon as possible. We also have advanced issues if you want to go for more advanced tasks.

Mblaze – Unix utilities to deal with Maildir
I'm so close to being a full-time mblaze user, it is truly excellent. There is something so smart about being able to use your standard shell tooling and interaction facilities to interact with mail. It is like everything that was a good idea with mh¹/nmh decades ago, just better all round and with a nicer message format.
Even if you don't like the idea of using command line tools as your MUA, you can easily make mblaze interactive with common tooling. For example, you could use mlist via fzf along with its --preview window as pretty awesome interactive client. Everything works as you'd expect, and you have all the power of every single tool you use to mangle that mail at any point.
I just seem to fall back in to mutt too easily in the end, I can't get over the final hump. I've even implemented a chunk of mimicry bindings so that I shouldn't even notice, but mutt pulls me back in for "that one minor feature" every now and then. I've been doing this dance for at least a few years at this point², but I think it may be longer.

Ask HN: Most interesting tech you built for just yourself?
I combined mblaze (https://github.com/leahneukirchen/mblaze), fzf and standard UNIX tools to build my own CLI MUA in under 300 lines, most of which is shell scripts.
When UNIX is your platform you don't need a complex UI framework with thousands or millions of lines of codes, and you get to reuse knowledge you've already built elsewhere.
I need to write more about it

Burgr – Books in Your Terminal
If you like Himalaya, you'll probably like mblaze as well (https://github.com/leahneukirchen/mblaze)
I also find fzf to be very good for building simple UIs. In fact I saw ways to do 80% of burgr with a few lines of fzf; composable tools really are the bee's knees

Ask HN: What services/apps are you self-hosting?
I self‐host mostly because local copies of things give me some privacy (sites won’t know what my IP is searching for), and it also lets me work easily when Comcast is down… which is annoyingly frequent in my neighborhood.
All of these machines are running OpenBSD, except the gaming machines and the HTPC.
• Outgoing Email: OpenSMTPD, with mandatory TLS. Since I’m the only one sending email from my domain, the outgoing relay is hidden behind my LAN and my DKIM keys never leave my network. Outgoing mail gets routed via Wireguard through a VPS so it doesn’t look like it’s coming from a residential IP block.
• Incoming Email: OpenSMTPD on my MXes, with MTA‐STS and DNSSEC/DANE so as many senders use TLS as possible. Delivers to Maildir on my LAN, which I access directly using mblaze over SSH (https://github.com/leahneukirchen/mblaze) and IMAP via Dovecot (which supports Maildir backend).
• Roundcube webmail.
• DNS zones: NSD running on two VPSes, slaves pulling their config via WireGuard from the master which runs in a VM on my LAN.
• Public webserver, with personal (public) homepage, Git repositories (clonable and browsable via CGit), photo gallery, files/images/random files when I need to share them by sending a link in IRC, etc.
• Matrix: Synapse for the server, Element for the client. Besides hanging out in Matrix rooms I use this for one‐on‐one audio calls with my friends (generate a link, send it to them, and chat through the browser).
• Pleroma, so I can interact with the Mastodon network.
• Apertium for text translation. The range of languages is a bit limited but for supported pairs it’s nice to avoid Google Translate.
• A home theater PC in my living room running Kodi, which pulls all my Blu‐Rays from a home NAS.
• A powerful gaming machine that uses Steam to stream games to either the HTPC or my Steam Deck. I only use this at home… I wonder how bad the latency would be if I connected to it when on a trip?
• My music collection, whether ripped from CD or bought digitally, is automatically tagged and sorted with Beets, and I run the web plugin to access it over the web. Beets’s web interface is kind of primitive; I would love to replace it with something like FunkWhale.
• Full mirrors of websites with free content: Wikipedia, Wikimedia Commons, Wiktionary, Stack Overflow, Project Gutenberg, Standard Ebooks
• Full OpenBSD package mirrors
• OpenStreetMap, running OSRM (routing) on top of an open source Leaflet/Mapbox demo I set up years ago. I’ve been meaning to update this to something more modern and less reliant on Mapbox software.
• Radicale for CalDAV/CardDAV, so my calendar and contacts are synced across all my devices automatically.
• Home adblocking with Unbound (what most people use PiHole for I guess). DNS lookups for my home network are anonymized with DoH over Tor (CloudFlare provides documentation for how to do this).
• Ways to access my home network when away from home: WireGuard VPN in a roadwarrior configuration; public‐facing SSH (with WebAuthn‐backed keys); failing that, an HTTPS proxy with Squid. (Yes, I have been stuck at conferences where the wifi network blocked SSH, WireGuard, and all traffic that wasn’t HTTP/HTTPS or DNS from the blessed server!)

Meli – email client in the terminal, in the spirit of mutt
You're probably looking for notmuch, which integrates very well with other tools. There's also mblaze (https://github.com/leahneukirchen/mblaze) that might be of interest.

Best terminal mail client
mblaze is nice once you get used to it. Pretty neat how you can compose simple pipelines interactively or just using simple scripts for repetitive tasks.

A Minimal Email Client
Aerc looks amazing, but I am still waiting for threading support before making the jump [1]. To the best of my knowledge, it supports everything else I would need.
[1]: https://todo.sr.ht/~sircmpwn/aerc2/94
My current stack is: Mutt, Neovim, fdm, msmtp, Syncthing, notmuch, lynx (for HTML conversion), mblaze [2] (for scripting), and a tiny pair of scripts to snooze and unsnooze e-mails. Here is an interesting observation, although a pipeline like this may look terrifying, it makes swapping in Aerc to take it for a spin trivial since it all interacts with a Maildir.
