I’m new/planning to get more into self hosting
I have a crappy NAS in the basement I archive to and copy my borg repos to.
Then I pay for a Dropbox style cloud service and I copy my borg archives there. It’s kind of janky but it’s cheap and works.
I’ve never seen where that meme came from
You actually hear back from companies?
If you set up something like Garage with borg with a bunch of other people you could create a network where you essentially swap hard drive space to ensure you’re all backed up.
But I think Garage assumes very high trust with your fellow hosts, so this doesn’t scale beyond direct social connections.
They actually quite that in a real legal filing?
Jesus.
Did they ask /r/pettyrevenge to write that?
It’s not really much extra effort though
They just added so e text to the __repr__ method on the exit callable object
That’s much easier than figuring out if your running this interactively and trying to figure out if this is going to break stuff.
The object storage (S3-compatible) platform MinIO created a bit of a stir this week with a PR that removes a ton of functionality from the interface of its community edition. When questioned, users were directed to the enterprise version of the platform. In unsurprising open-source fashion, a fork has already been created by the community while others have started migrating to existing alternatives like Garage.
How are people finding Garage? Does anyone have a good comparison vs seaweedFS?
I call it the clicktorus
Gemini.
The twins.
Castor and Pollux.
They were tricked by their cousins and started the whole Trojan War.
I don’t hate AI, I hate how it was created, how it’s foisted on us, the promises it can do things it really can’t, and the corporate governance of it.
But I acknowledge these tools exist, and I do use them because they genuinely help and I can’t undo all the stuff I hate about them.
If I had millions of dollars to spend, sure I would try and improve things, but I don’t.
I’ll be honest, I’ve never found regex that difficult, bit if you cannot read or write it, then it seems incredibly dangerous to blindly trust output from an AI.
Why would you waste a function call on something so completely redundant?
~For real though, arg parsing goes in the if, then gets dispatched to whatever function call is needed to run the proper script.~
Yeah, it’s still super useful.
I think the execs want to see dev salaries go to zero, but these tools make more sense as an accelerator, like giving an accountant excel.
I get a bit more done faster, that’s a solid value proposition.
It catches things like spelling errors in variable names, does good autocomplete, and it’s useful to have it look through a file before committing it and creating a pull request.
It’s very useful for throwaway work like writing scripts and automations.
It’s useful not but a 10x multiplier like all the CEOs claim it is.
Did it at least try puts?
It helps you get up to the baseline but will never make you great.
They only actually need Claude to skip QA and hope that reading the code is a good enough substitute.
This really could be a script to create a PR for the merge, request a review from Claude, then automate the rest.
It hurts seeing CSS3 being labelled “vintage”, I was so hyped when that came out.
I avoid the ides of March only for the ides of July to get me
