Programming problem: Replace Elements With Greatest Element On Right Side

Programming problem: Replace Elements With Greatest Element On Right Side

Traverse the array right to left, tracking the running maximum. Each element gets replaced with the current max before updating it. This avoids the inner loop, reducing time complexity from O(n²) to O(n) with O(1) space.

Programming problem: Remove Element

Programming problem: Remove Element

Use a write pointer to overwrite matching values in place: iterate the array, and for each element not equal to `val`, write it at the pointer position and advance. Returns `k` non-matching elements in O(n) time and O(1) space.

Programming problem: Max Consecutive Ones

Programming problem: Max Consecutive Ones

Track the current streak of 1s and reset on 0. A single pass through the array in O(n) time and O(1) space gives you the maximum consecutive count — no extra data structures needed.

Fixing Ghost analytics when running behind nginx instead of Caddy

Fixing Ghost analytics when running behind nginx instead of Caddy

Ghost's Tinybird analytics silently break behind nginx because the full `/.ghost/analytics/` prefix gets forwarded instead of stripped. This post explains why the usual `proxy_pass` trailing slash trick fails with Docker DNS and shows the explicit rewrite fix.
