Show HN: Learn Blender shortcuts with lots of tiny videos (Score: 150+ in 1 day)

Comments: https://readhacker.news/c/6d2qq
I've used blender for more than a decade and now ask myself what the best way to teach it would look like.
Video generally seems the best format to explain how to solve a specific problem, but its not exactly great for larger collections of small bits of information – like blender shortcuts.
This is why I made this video/text hybrid website from scratch. If you're a blender user or have experience in teaching others, I'd be very happy to hear your thoughts on it.
I'm also posting this here because I assume many of your are professional web developers. I'm a learning hobbyist and wondering if there are any issues with the way I built the website.
Thanks!

Ask HN: What do you monitor on your servers? (❄️ Score: 150+ in 4 days)

We've been developing the BlueWave Uptime Manager [1] for the past 5 months with a team of 7 developers and 3 external contributors, and till today we always went under the radar.
As we move towards expanding from basic uptime tracking to a comprehensive monitoring solution, we're interested in getting insights from the community.
For those of you managing server infrastructure,
- What are the key assets you monitor beyond the basics like CPU, RAM, and disk usage?
- Do you also keep tabs on network performance, processes, services, or other metrics?
Additionally, we're debating whether to build a custom monitoring agent or leverage existing solutions like OpenTelemetry or Fluentd.
- What’s your take—would you trust a simple, bespoke agent, or would you feel more secure with a well-established solution?
- Lastly, what’s your preference for data collection—do you prefer an agent that pulls data or one that pushes it to the monitoring system?
