In my last post, I described an interesting way to combine earthly with the golang tests module for an isolated and repeatable build environment. This setup works great for local development and even works well for running automated events from a scheduler such as cron.

I'm running very minimalist and lean these days. My “homelab” consists of a 1 year-old Lenovo X1 laptop running Xubuntu 22.04 plus an account on sdf.org I've had for so long, I can't even remember when I signed up for it.
