no guy has ever dropped the line “you don’t know what I’ve been through”

Great description of a problem I noticed with most LLM generated code of any decent complexity. It will look fantastic at first but you will be truly up shit creek by the time you realise it didn’t generate a paddle.

Until the day it doesn’t, I was one of those people excommunicated by Oracle out of the blue and that is the last I ever heard from them (seriously, I tried to find out why at least)

What a great build up and a cathartic well deserved pay off

Lest this [the clapback] seem like mere high spirits and hijinks, Lee’s partner and his mother both “received harassing messages through Facebook Messenger,” while other messages targeted Lee’s son, saying things like “I would kill your f—ing n—– child” and calling him a “racemixing pussy.”

Ahhh the internet I know and love, never change

On the off chance anyone uses BorgBase for off-site backups, I would like to shamelessly plug a Prometheus exporter I wrote for monitoring your account. It exports name, available/total space and last modified time for all repos in your account.

Be the change you want to see in the world. Languages are meant to be fluid evolving constructs anyway.

around £17 per person according to the article

Children absorb language like a spknge because they are forced to by necessity. Moved to a Spanish speaking country and in three years I could run linguistic circles around any three year old. (half joke but you get the point hopefully)

It is complete overkill for most home server tasks but I would look to run something like this for next 10 years at least so I can see it making sense if you cost it out like that.

Depends on your personal use case of course but for comparison I have a (relatively) piddly Intel N305 processor mini PC with 16GB of memory and currently run a 25-30 container load, including Plex and a torrent server. My setup currently idles at around 20% CPU and 25% memory utilisation, so I can quite confidently say the linked N5 ought to give more than enough headroom to handle a typical homelab/self hosted load.

Today I learnt, thank you.

Question please, how would podman alleviate container update woes?

Setting a random SSH port and limiting it to 3/min saw failed login attempts fall by 99% and jailed IPs fall to 0.

A reverse proxy saves you from having to expose your services directly and acts as a go-between.

Internet <--> Reverse Proxy <--> Service

Just under two right now but it is throwing out 55-60GB a day at the moment. Gotta keep those Linux ISOs seeded!

This week I finally managed to route torrent traffic through a VPS that was sitting around gathering dust. I am behind CGNAT so was taking me 6 weeks to do the kind of traffic I do in a day now. I couldn’t be more chuffed.
