  • Federation is still a work in progress IIRC.

    But everyone can already selfhost their own instance if all they want is a web-facing git forge.

  • Haven't you heard? "React" content is the new meta (/s only half way).

  • Oh wow, I think this is the first time I've seen analognowhere referenced outside of the the fediverse community where pmjv posts their artwork.

    I'm halfway through the logs; I'm finding them much more compelling than the initial story - something to do with the tone(s).

    Thank you for writing/making this!

  • "sorry to disappoint you, Timmy, but the tooth fairy only comes once she knows the parents are aware their child is about to get some money/a visit"

    I'm very surprised there are parents telling their kids about the tooth fairy that can't recover the story when confronted by their kid with such evidence.

  • I am thankful I have been away from my arch machine this past week and so never got the chance to install infected updates from the AUR, because I for sure have gotten complacent with checking entire PACKAGEBUILDs. The checker scripts the community has put together found a single potential infected package on my machine - alvr-git - but I had last installed/updated that one on may 21 (so in theory it's clean).

    When the script is three pages long on a 4k screen, and I have ten other packages to review, I have found it's really hard to stay committed to checking it all with my own eyes. The threat of needing to nuke my entire machine and rotates all my creds will certainly help with that, sadly.

  • No idea how easy this will be to follow if you're forced to rely on text-to-speech and/or other assistive technologies, but here goes:

    • to tell nginx the product is physically on /wp/, you probably want a root /wp directive
    • to tell nginx the browser can point to domain.tld/post or domain.tld/english/post, you probably want two location blocks (one for each url) that each contain a rewrite directive that massages the url requested by the browser into pointing to the correct post or page location.
    • for this to be in a file on it's own, and assuming your nginx setup is pretty standard, you probably want to have the entire server block be in a file that lives in the sites-available directory and symbolically linked ("symlinked") into the sites-enabled directory.

    For the rewrites, here is the link to the relevant documentation page: https://nginx.org/en/docs/http/ngx_http_rewrite_module.html . You will need to understand the basics of how to write a Regular Expression, or get someone to write it for you. If you can't find a human that's available and willing to help, maybe a back-and-forth with an L.L.M. can get you to what you need (I don't like suggesting L.L.M.s but being sighted myself I don't really know if they're better or worse than recommending you just work at learning how to do this on your own, given the current state of the web).

  • The textual expect/diff for UI screenshot testing is enough to make me want to try this out, let alone the promise of being able to use ocaml for everything.

  • I'm surprised that you're talking about models being CUDA-specific or AMD-specific. I've had a bunch of models running on my amd-only pc, using ollama, lemonade, and lm-studio, through either rocm or vulkan. None of these models were billed as AMD-specific. I had to do some config tweaking for ollama to use my graphics card but that's more because I have a weird in-between-generations card that also predates the LLM hype (6700XT).

    However, I did generally need to look for the GGUF format versions of things - usually accounts like unsloth have them uploaded on huggingface barely a day or two after the original version gets posted.

  • "posterior averaging" sounds like medicalese for "implants so my butt isn't flat"

  • Solid conclusion! I had seen headlines but never actually read excerpts of the Pope's encyclical. Much to your article's point, I suspect, I never would have expected the head of the Catholic church to produce writing and arguments so relevant to the current state of the fedi.

  • There will be no demand for software for a while, as we did not need much in the first place.

    I don't think software is like some raw resource that can be accumulated and then consumed at a later date. In my own career as a dev, people are constantly coming up with new demands that have to be implemented to meet their needs.

    I do agree that a lot of software made in the past 20 years was primarily made because someone (often not the devs making it) thought it would make them rich(er) in some way instead of actually "benefitting" humanity. My own hope is that however the economics of LLM-based AI work out, we'll see a decline in this specific sort of software development taking up so much of the pool of available developer effort.

    If companies are spending more on tokens than on developers to churn out software that is decidedly meh (which is all I've seen so far of the trend), I would expect the actually induces demand for human developers - either as a complement to "AI" or as competition to it.

  • I agree with most of what you're saying, but:

    • forgejo is working on federation. They've been working on it for a certain amount of time by now, but I do think we can expect some concrete version of what you describe in terms of community to materialize in the next decade as long a people want it and are motivated enough
    • when talking about code that is stored in a version control software that supports decentralized state (git, mercurial are the 2 I have working knowledge of) the "easy" fix for low bus factors is to just fork/mirror the software you want to see continue to exist. Source code is not that voluminous, I would be surprised if [the collective we] can't manage to store multiple copies of the sources for software we deem useful. It's a question of changing habits, not finding some miracle tech

    Of course, habits aren't necessarily easy to change.

  • It definitely comes off as LLM-generated, though "Half-understood Kubernetes is more dangerous than no Kubernetes" feels human-wrought.
