Seafile + Samba + OpenVPN is my stack. I use Seafile for a dropbox style file sync on my devices, and Samba for direct access. OpenVPN for remote access on all devices. Works quite well.

I didn't follow the whole session (only saw the memes about it on TikTok), but in the recent congressional hearing, was the TikTok CEO grilled on misinformation on his platform? I see tonnes of astroturfed content on TikTok, significan

I recommend this method for self-hosting too. I have gigabit Internet and cloudflare proxying unlocks the ability to host locally without exposing my home IP. Plus all the advantages of DDoS mitigation.

There's a lot of bad websites too. I guess people should stop making them.

I agree with the general sentiment of this & wish I had a better view. My office is currently in my basement (only practical place in our house for it). I probably spend around 60% of my working hours there, the other 40% I'm on my

While I didn't do this myself, I remember watching Kevin Rose do this on his internet show thebroken. He talks about getting an orinoco PCMCIA wifi adapter because of their broad support for this kind of thing. If you want a blast from

I know Minio can be used for production workloads, but Minio as a localhost substitute for an S3-like store is underrated. S3 dependent projects I work on spin up a Minio instance via docker-compose to get a fully local development experien

"Near-path NAT"[1] has been suggested as a mechanism that browsers can use to proxy requests through an intermediate server, similar to what you suggest. [1] https://github.com/bslassey/ip-blindness/blob&

Might as well get the software ready now for the RPi 5 and beyond.

Helps if you only have one platform you're developing on and deploying to (e.g. x86-64 Linux). If developing on macOS there can be Mac specific binaries installed, depending on the package.

I'm thinking more of an Irradiance map where the value is the current W/m^2 at a specific location, which would take into account latitude and time of year (to get the angle of the Earth relative to the sun), along with other fact

by joeyrobert 7y ago
Interesting that these maps are always binary: light or dark, when the intensity of light varies based on how high the sun is in the sky. Is there a version of this map that takes that into account?

Normalizing has similar size benefits. For our use case (big aggregate reporting tables), incoming external data is not normalized, meaning we'd have to have another process iterate over it with foreign table in memory and map it to th

This is a common operation for my team as well. In my old project, so many indexes that were added were just assumptions about the usage pattern of the data. Not only did they blow up the size of the table and INSERT time, they became the o

One of my favourite things to do on Slashdot during its heyday was go through the comments and open all the "Homepage" links from user profiles. It was usually a treasure trove of personal websites in this style.

UCI chess engines typically defer opening book to the GUI consuming it. So if you were using Stockfish with Arena or Tarrasch, that would handle the opening book. Stockfish will start calculating when it is out of the book. This is all conf

Wouldn't the drive performance be significantly inhibited by RPi's USB 2.0 interface? A small board with SATA or USB 3.0 would be much faster.

I've had good success running OS X El Capitan on an i3 Intel Nuc. It's my main music composition platform, mostly for Logic Pro. It's a cheaper Mac Mini in that you can get one with the required parts (SSD and laptop RAM) for

Good article but no mention of Promise.coroutine [1] which I find unfortunate. It allows for a synchronous looking code using generators and yield. I've been using it on express servers (in lieu of Koa) and it's worked great with

This got me through undergraduate calculus I, II, III and differential equations. Can't recommend it enough, it's a free text book. One of those hidden gems you can occasionally find on professor's websites.

I agree. High-end audio manipulation will remain native, but I think for a simplified use-case (composition, lower quality renders) the browser is a good sell. That and the tooling is almost here with MIDI.js[1], Web Audio[2] and Web MIDI[3
