A 2019 reading list
Posted by Kristian Golding on January 7, 2019
Here be the books I’m attempting to get through this year. Most have been sitting in my book case forever. I was going for one a month, but decided to add a few more, since: I got to the last part of “The War on Science” nearly a year ago; have already read the first edition of “Wolfenstein 3D”; and have already started “Algorithms to Live By” and “The Disaster Artist”.
Of course, reading any of the books assumes I won’t binge watch Netflix, but the German sci-fi thriller “Dark” is rather good and I need to finish it right now. BRB, books.
2020 UPDATE: I got through “Doom”, “Wolfenstein 3D”, “The war on science”, “Peopleware”, “The Disaster Artist”, “Where war lives”. I have to do better this year…
Docker image to run a quick PHP test server
Posted by Kristian Golding on August 5, 2018
I had a need to run a PHP-capable web server on my Vagrant box to locally test some Javascript that queried a database via PHP, and then presented that via Google Charts. This Docker image suited that use case just fine. Replace <full path to location you want as root> as appropriate:
sudo docker run --name web-server -p 127.0.0.1:80:80 -v /opt/mysql:/var/lib/mysql -v <full path to location you want as root>:/web -d osws/php-web-server
