Preface: In the process of building a home data center, three virtualization technologies are involved: traditional Virtual Machine (VM), Linux Container (LXC), and the Docker technology we mainly use when building applications. Why do I use them at the same time...
Officially embarked on the path of music cultivation
Today, my Ren and Du meridians were suddenly cleared, and I found the vocal state that suits me best. I then realized that in the past, I was just imitating in various ways, never truly relaxing to make good use of my own instrument and sing in my own style. What a waste of time~~ From now on, every time I sing an old song, it will feel like the first time. Who can understand this feeling~
On a sudden whim today, I spent a whole day updating the current home network topology. Compared to the topology map from around 2015 (I can't remember exactly when), it has undergone huge changes, which also reflects the rapid development of IT technology from a certain perspective. I won't say much else, just take a look, just for...
Preface: Due to the various chaotic membership systems of domestic video platforms, some friends who like to tinker have been forced to download movies on their own again (of course, some people have always downloaded movies on their own and have never changed, like me~). Putting aside how to painstakingly find high-definition resource download addresses in the current network environment, how...
The Path of Life
There is far more than one path in life. Different eras, different environments, and different personal fundamentals can all lead to different suitable paths. So when you feel that life is not going well, feel that life is full of hardships, and cannot find the meaning of living, you might as well look back and think calmly. Perhaps in the end, you will suddenly realize that you simply chose a path that is not suitable for yourself.
Clarifying the mind and seeing one's true nature, and thus seeing the Tathagata
The phrase “clarifying the mind and seeing one's true nature” often mentioned in Buddhism can be understood on a simple level as: understanding one's own “true heart” and seeing one's own “true nature”. Clarifying the mind and seeing one's true nature is extremely important. Spiritually, it is the starting point of cultivation; practically, it is a hallmark of a person truly recognizing their own inner heart, truly realizing the meaning of their own life, and initially reaching the level of "being without doubts".
But for ordinary people, clarifying the mind and seeing one's true nature is very difficult and requires breaking through layers of illusions.
Everyone's growth environment is different. In the process of growing up, one's thoughts will inevitably be influenced by all aspects such as family, school, society, tradition, and culture. In the end, there is a high probability that under the influence of various aspects, one will find a balance point that they can accept. This is also the state of “becoming mature” in the words of others, after starting to contact society and going through various beatings of reality.
But is this “maturity” truly mature? Are these thoughts at this moment your true thoughts deep down in your heart, or merely compromises after being beaten down by society? Were your naive and simple thoughts back then really just “naive and simple”? With these doubts, if things go on like this, you will completely lose your true self, become numb and indifferent, and eventually turn into a piece of duckweed drifting with the current.
Therefore, break through the layers of illusions surrounding yourself, and have the courage to face your true self. No matter how ugly, how shameless, how disgusting, or how terrifying your true self is, that is your true nature.
After recognizing your own true nature, do not fight against it; reconcile with it, then accept it, get used to it, control it, and ultimately refine it. This is the very purpose of spiritual cultivation.

Suppose an external user wants to access the application corresponding to app1 in the home data center through the link https://app1.example.com, what is the specific access process? You can look at the following flowchart (assuming the home broadband has a public IPv4 address and has I...
In the previous article, we introduced which method should be used to deploy reverse proxies for home broadband under different circumstances. In the next article, we will introduce the working principles and key configuration points of reverse proxies. For a reverse proxy to work properly, two problems need to be solved: the binding of applications and domain names, and the passing of parameters...
When the home data center has completed the deployment of hardware, software, and applications, it is necessary to publish the applications externally. Unlike traditional home broadband which has few applications, publishing applications in a home data center involves many applications, which is far from being as simple as mapping a few ports on a router (provided there is a public IP address)...
Preface: As our internal applications become more numerous and complex, a problem that must be solved is how to monitor the running health of all applications in real-time and receive alarms at the first opportunity when an application encounters problems. To solve this problem, we need to build our own real-time application health monitoring...
