Find Your Perfect Coffee Spot
This is my personal journey, starting with a switch to Linux in high school, which sparked a deep dive into DevOps. It covers my initial steps with a $5 VPS, learning Docker and networking fundamentals, evolving into Docker Swarm, containerizing my own code, and finally building a powerful custom homelab server for advanced learning, all leading towards my current exploration of Kubernetes.
Behind every resume is a life, not just bullet points. Rejection is part of hiring, but silence isn’t. Ghosting leaves candidates in painful limbo and hurts employer trust. A simple “thank you, not this time” shows respect and gives closure every applicant deserves.
When seniors mentor juniors, skills grow faster, confidence builds naturally, and a strong culture forms. This tradition, common in some communities, creates a cycle of growth and trust. It’s not charity — it’s an investment in the future. Should we make it the norm?

Imagine waking up in a foreign country where you don't speak the language. Everything seems unfamiliar the words, the signs, even simple interactions.

When you buy a domain name, the next step is to connect it to your server so people can visit your website using yourdomain.com. In this guide, we’ll walk through connecting a domain with Nginx and setting up HTTPS using Let’s Encrypt.
Season 2 Overview
Last two weeks, I had the great honor of joining the Plug and Play Silicon Valley Summit 2025 — a global gathering of startups, investors, and innovation leaders from around the world. As the Founder & CEO of Jobify (Cambodia) Co., Ltd., and a proud member of the Khmer Coders Community, I had the rare chance to represent Cambodia’s tech ecosystem on one of the world’s biggest innovation stages. This wasn’t just a business trip. It was a powerful reminder of how far Cambodian developers and startups can go — and how much further we can reach when we work together.
In Cambodia, age and culture shape how we work. Starting Jobify at 22, I learned young people make mistakes but grow stronger with time. Instead of criticism, older generations should guide and encourage. Bridging this age gap helps Khmer Coders build collaboration and a stronger tech ecosystem.
Khmer Coders has grown to become Cambodia's largest coding community. We bring together developers, designers, and tech enthusiasts to learn, share, and grow together.
