"Don't go, the drones need you"

Sequal to civ2 though I think?

Used Target Process as my last place. Way nicer than Jira IMO

Which amendment was which? Trying to look up my MPs coding history for it.

That's fair, I'm not sure there is a nice snappy term for using it properly though.

[–] Nighed@feddit.uk 2 points 3 days ago (2 children)

It can be maintainable, but I only if you are actually reviewing what it spits out and correcting it (either manually or with more AI).

That removes a lot of the benefit in a lot of cases.

It is nice to be able to have it scaffold thousands of initial lines before you dive in though!

[–] Nighed@feddit.uk 2 points 3 days ago

Have you been to one of the workshops? It CAN be very useful when used right, setting up an MCP server pointing at internal docs/best practices made a huge difference etc.

Any criticism of AI you give will have a lot more weight if it comes from a base of knowledge. That means learning how it does (and doesn't) work so you can critique it without coming across as "that anti AI guy".

Make sure you go through everyone else's PRs carefully and pull out all the stupid AI stuff, it's great fun ripping them to shreds sometimes.

Yeh, the US opened Pandora's box here. You can't just close it again.

I assume this will be bonds, rather than buying stakes in the companies?

If it's unsafe to go into the other lane to overtake, it's probably unsafe to overtake them anyway.

Lots of cyclists hold the lane when they feel unsafe being overtaken as it makes drivers think twice before trying.

Yesterday, my group got overtaken while there was an oncoming car because the driver thought they could get through, horrible position to be in.

Maybe they should let their workers work remotely, then they wouldn't have to spend so much on offices🤔

[–] Nighed@feddit.uk 1 points 4 days ago

If you are going to use it enough to pay for it sure. But that's always been the case.

The main benefits of cloud are it's ability to scale quickly, it's ability to provide geographic reach and the conversation of capex to opex.

Article's headline, not mine!

I disagree, with the headline, but it does at least mention astroturfing etc.

 

Seems to go to an alternate front end, but not load?

 

... Who would have thought?

Would link to the status page.... But it's down!

 

They sell things that come in cups, or with napkins. Lots of people cycle/run/walk here instead of driving, seems pretty stupid.

Taking away the bins doesn't mean you don't produce rubbish....

Edit: I think there is still a bin IN the cafe, but most people eat/drink outside. Lots of people asking staff where the bins are. Still hypocritical I think though? (And still mildly infuriating to remove well used bins!)

Hi, I'm looking for some recommendations, mostly looking for pointers of where to go and look at/research stuff as I have no idea what is good and what is just well advertised.

Intro: I have finally entered the world of (almost) Gigabit internet, which is opening up options with what I can host.

I currently have:

  • Pi hole on an actual RP (will probably remain there because its easy)
  • Inbound Wireguard VPN on my old router (will stop working when my old ISP stops service) EDIT: my new ISB gave me a router, but it doesn't have VPN functionality
  • Foundry VTT that I run up on my gaming machine when needed

I will probably also be upgrading my gaming PC in the next few months, so my current rig will probably be put behind the TV to use as a server and for couch gaming.

Info/recommendations I would like:

  • VPN software (I want to VPN INTO my network) My goto would be wireguard, is that still a good option? (I assume I just port forward the VPN ports to the server?)
  • Private cloud/File server: I both want to be able to occasionally (but permamently) host files publicly, but still have the main store be available on the local network only. Is that going to be two pieces of software, or just one?
  • Is a local video streaming app actually useful for a rare watcher of movies etc, or can they be streamed directly from the file server? its something that I see a lot of people talk about, but don't really understand why...
  • Is Docker the way to go for everything? or just install on the machine directly?
  • ~Piracy~ VM - Enabling the virtualisation stuff for Docker mostly breaks virtualbox (at least on windows) any recommendations for how to nicely run a VM alongside docker (if that's the recommendation)?
  • Should/Could I be hosting anything else? Foundry will probably be on there. I don't feel like I have a use for smart home stuff, so home assistant wouldn't be much use etc.
