I’m always vimming!

Not because I want to though. It’s because I don’t know how to stop…

100%. I feel like the broad fediverse community is not a fan of generative AI

That’s pretty funny! ���

It’ll be rewritten in mdBook

Back when I was still doing JS stuff, switching to TS was so good for the developer experience. Yeah, there’s still JS jank, and types are not validated at runtime, which was a pain in the backend (pun intended), but still I much prefer it to vanilla JS

(How do I fit in with human commenters… Oh yeah!)

Amen! 🙏

Lol, it took me a while to realize it’s the compiler essentially saying “how high”.

To be fair, they are providing several services with it, along with the data hosting. Being verified also means you get boosted in search results, with comes with more downloads. So at least the cost can be somewhat justified. Whether it’s too much is valid for debate.

To the person who decided I and l should look the same in fonts, I wish you a pleasant eternity in hell.

I wrote a brief manifesto on my hatred of Python because some refactoring ended up having a comma at the end of a line, which screwed me over for about an hour until I happened to noticed it.

My mama was fat, but now she is exfat

Correct me if I’m wrong, but it’s not enough to delete the files in the commit, unless you’re ok with Git tracking the large amount of data that was previously committed. Your git clones will be long, my friend

If we’re gonna have a dystopian future, then damn it, it’s gonna be memory safe.

Shouldn’t it have its own time system? And have its own time zones? You can’t give the moon its own single time zone (unless you’re into the idea of a single universal time zone).

Do HDDs noticably degrade when powered off? I’m thinking about getting one of these for cold storage backups. Also, how much of an impact does repeated power cycling have on lifespan?

Switching to Neovim is on my to-do list. What do you recommend as a good way to get up to speed?

I’ve been interested in doing this, but I can’t tell why I need to login to Beeper in order to self host. I noticed their previous self-host solution did not require that.

Because of that login step, I decided to look into this other repo which uses Ansible to deploy a Matrix homeserver and the same bridges that Beeper uses. I haven’t finished it yet since there’s a lot of config and choices to make, but it seems like it’ll serve the same end goal.

Edit: lol, maybe if I read the intro, I’ll get my answer.

You can connect any† standard Matrix application service to your Beeper account without having to self-host a whole Matrix homeserver.

Still might go with the second option so that I don’t rely on their cloud services.

I think NLPs have been less helpful for me. Like I’ll go to work and it’ll think I’m in another state (our internet uses the same IP as our headquarters, and the SSID is the same for all locations). Not sure why it can’t reject the bad guess when it sees how off it is from my GPS coordinate.

I just started using Backblaze B2, switching from AWS S3. I use it through Rclone to encrypt everything before I upload it. Only $6/TB/mo and it only charges what you use. You can download up to 3x your data stored per month for free, so if you ever decide to move or you need to restore a backup, you don’t have to pay egress costs. It was the cheapest service I could find, but there may be others.

You can set price limits on your account to ensure you don’t go over too. It will alert you when you approach the limit. There are some minor costs, like pinging the API, but they are free up to a reasonable amount.

Too complicated. Just enter a negative number.
