they often use browser fingerprinting and getting various device settings. it turns out that just by looking at various configurations and such, you can actually track individuals

I feel for you there. I grew up in those environments.

I’m using it for some side projects. I used it as an assistant for setting up services in Kubernetes - also used it a lot for debugging and creating kubectl commands.

another side project is to write a full web app in F# SAFE stack, which uses Fable to transpile to JavaScript and React, so I’m learning several things at once.

At work I didn’t use it as much, but it got used to generate tests, since no one really cared enough about them. I also did some cool stuff where someone wrote a guide on how to migrate something from a V1 of a thing to a V2 of a thing, I hooked up MCP to link the doc, asked it to migrate one, and it did it perfectly.

I used it a lot to generate Mongo queries, but they put that feature in MongoDB Compass.

We used Claude Sonnet pretty much exclusively. for my side projects I often use Auto since Sonnet burns through the monthly budget pretty quickly. It definitely isn’t as good, but it tends to be favorable for template-y things, debugging why some strange thing is happening in F# or react.

For the side projects, I find I’m using it less as I learn more. It’s good for getting over a quick hump if you have a sense of how things generally should be.

I’ve considered the lakes I’ve burned because I didn’t copy paste those kubectl commands to a file.

I prefer Sonnet. Anything less isn’t that great, which is one reason I think people hate it.

I tend to use it for crufty things. And certain front end things. It’s been a long time since I’ve done web UI.

Everyone here is talking about heat pumps for being more efficient. pfft

and THAT’S what makes me HOT!

that probably didn’t help 😅

I actually just wrote about today’s fun experience! https://gotosocial.michaeldileo.org/@mdileo/statuses/01K7YKQ9584YBY1QTYQ8RMW7SS

I’m disappointed that I can’t find it, but in Iceland I saw a waterfall falling up! It was raining and water was flowing off of a cliff toward the ocean, but the wind was so strong coming up the cliff that it sprayed the water back up.

I didn’t know I needed this, but now I do. subbed!

not for LLMs. I have a 16GB and even what I can fit in there just isn’t really enough to be useful. It can still do things and quickly enough, but I can’t fit models that large enough to be useful.

I also don’t know if your GPU is compatible with ROCM or not.

i had to do a particular command to get the AMD GPU properly available in docker. i can’t find that if you need

congratulations! I wish you both the greatest happiness!

cloudflare happened first and I haven’t been bothered to change it yet

I switched to it because the ISP blocked ports 80/443. It was good and things actually got a bit faster with them handling SSL certs.

but one thing to note is that the free tier has a 100MB file limit. I got around some of that by using the tail scale vpn with a custom domain entry to point to the local network.

I did these changes (wire guard to tail scale, dns to tunnels, etc) at different times, which is why things aren’t very consistent.

if you’re on your home network the address will be the IP address and, if you’re not using a reverse proxy, the port the app runs on.

with reverse proxy: http/s://192.168.8.2 or whatever without: http/s://<IP address>:3000 or whatever the port is

this was a fun read! I haven’t done much web UI in years, so it was nice to learn about some of the new, nice things that are available. i don’t think I’d remember some of the more advanced stuff though.

Cloudflare tunnels - it used to be dynamic dns, but the ISP blocked ports 80/443, so I switched to tunnels.
External DNS on the Gl-Inet router, included with the product
Goodcloud, from Gl-Inet (included and really nice to have another way to get to it)

for the home self-hosting, that’s pretty much it.

For the (coming soon TM) fediverse apps in Keyboard Vagabond, add in S3, cloudflare CDN

I appreciate the context :)

I think it’s worth a shot. If it doesn’t work out, you can go back
