I self-host Immich on a ZFS pool of older drives I had lying around.

*Everyone that wants an easy "blessed" path. Naturally you don't run into folks who self-host Immich very often.

Oh I back them up to Immich self-hosted. I just stopped paying Apple.

I haven't been this excited since Dodge released their new Caravan... or Ubuntu released their new orange and purple UI...

That doesn't cause the amount that's already been spent to simply disappear. To recoup, they're going to need to sell a LOT of subscriptions. In about 3 years, we'll need to upgrade the GPUs that we use - if we're s

I'm not sure I'd call that "meaningful" in the sense of "trillions of dollars and datacenters built all over the place" meaningful. Yes, I can now tell Claude to build a feature and it often does an okay job. I

I mean, yes, that might get more folks working on a single project - which _might_ lead to shipping more quickly (might - more devs doesn't always equal speed). But I think what we'd end up with is Gnome; something that works fair

It can go different ways. Redis, Elastic Search, MySQL, and Java all have different stories with some common threads.

I have other reasons - mostly hiring competent engineers that deeply undertand the language. I can hire a competent SpringBoot engineer who can "fill out the form" and have a fast-enough API ready in a few days. Will it be beautif

You just made me realize how much I miss IRC. Pre-911, one could go for months and months without hearing a single thing about politics. And this is with lots of folks from Berkley in the chats!! (again, not saying Berkley politics are a &q

I really can't deal with BlueSky. I wanted to because I had a lot of good "starter packs" for NeoVim and OCaml development. Nerd stuff is the reason I visit these sites. The problem is, I start following people and it almost

With the exception of using divs for things that have a more appropriate element. Buttons for example - for the love of all that is holy - when I see an onclick handler and aria attributes on divs, I think, "couldn't you have rest

This just mimics what I call BusinessBro™ speech. It also goes the other way, they use verbs as nouns. "I know this is a big ask". "The solve for that is that we can...." When it was just my product owner in tech meeting

CL was recommended to me here. I had only played with Scheme over the years (SICP and Little Schemer - which, I used to recommend to every engineer that answered to me). I quickly bought Practical Common Lisp in hardcover (used). The langua

Yeah, it literally hearkens back to an era where "programs" were literally well-thought-out programs like you'd receive at a play - the cast list, the acts, the music, etc. COBOL on punchcards springs to mind here. Lots of or

I can tell you that Apple grows closer and closer to Microsoft-level annoying every year. The update situation is just stupid at this point. 10:30am and "hey, we'd like to take your computer offline for 45 minutes? Want to defer u

Apple's playbook has always been to knock technology they don't have as "worthless" (Video Messaging, Copy/Paste on iPhone, ability to play multiple video formats on AppleTV, ability to encode WAV files into Apple A

I always considered the massive digg.com revolt to be the "beginning of the end". It was between Reddit and Kuro5hin in those days. Who was going be the next "Slashdot"? It's the same story over and over though. Sit

I agree. If I pirate a book and share it on the web, and I get busted for doing so, and subsequently pay a fine, I don't get to KEEP sharing it on the web. Now, if I license the book, I might be able to come to an agreement with the au

Yeah, guile has a library that looks close to what I want. The worry is that railway programming is an entire shift in error handling. Since it's not the standard that I've seen in the Lisp/Scheme world, I'd be forcing a

That's just crazy! (in a good way) I've been in software since 1998 and it's like I've just uncovered a whole new world.

I particpated in a Clojure reading group for "Getting Clojure" back around 2017. Having the entire JVM ecosystem available, is absolutely a great benefit. I even fooled around with ClojureScript a bit. David Nolen is great at maki

Since a few folks here recommended Common Lisp to me as the language that would "tick all my boxes", I've been doing a deep dive. Right now, I'm working through SICP again with DrRacket. The first time I worked through i

Matrix 2 had Trinity using a well known nmap hack at the command line! I like that attention to detail.

I think people see the "pricing" and are turned off. The base is completely free! Some of the ecosystem is not. The big selling point for me, is the size of the library. HTMX and Alpine are a bit larger. The downside for me is nee
