title: Automatically Updating Podman Containers
--- ---
Recently, I have been [transitioning to Podman](/blog/rootless-docker-compose-podman) for running my container infrastructure. In the process, I brought over Watchtower which I have previously used for auto-updating docker containers. Before doing so, I didn't check its [compatibility](https://github.com/containrrr/watchtower/issues/1060) (whoops) and found a few of my containers would every other week or so not come back up.

title: Most Common Mistake in Induction Proofs

One of the most common mistakes I see in induction proofs is assuming the recursive case and working backwards towards the induction hypothesis. This may be fine for formulas that are symmetric like those involving equality, but this way of proving induction fails if not. This post will show such example.

With that, I want to be able to share the great toots out there in my own website as well as keep an archive of all the toots I made. This post will go over the code I wrote in Hugo to display a single toot into a blog post. Mastodon for me is a nice friendly place and I enjoy participating in that community.

## Conclusion ## Conclusion
I'm happy to see that Mastodon doesn't make it difficult to query and parse data from their platform. Within one toot there are a lot of possibilities for its type. For example, it can be a reply, a boost, or include a content warning label. To quickly get the basics (which includes replies), I ignored many of the fields. I would like to come back to this in the future and explore how to design for the other cases as well.

As the weather gets warmer, I am starting to go on more hikes. Several people on their websites share a Strava embed which highlights a path taken during their workout. I believe as a community this has great potential for sharing our favorite hiking paths. I don't, however, want to rely on Strava to host my GPS data. Instead, we will showcase how to accomplish the same effect but with open technologies. As the weather gets warmer, I am starting to go on more hikes.

With this we created a cool visual representation of GPX data on our own website built on top of open technologies. Since our routes are stored in GPX files, if gpx.studio was to go down, then we can likely find an alternative to plot the file for us. Gpx.studio is also built on top of OpenStreetMap, a great long-standing community driven mapping project.
