  • self-hosted image hosting like Imgur?

  • Immich doesn't explicitly support hotlinking, I remember it being a bit annoying to get an embeddable link? (Might have just been for video?)

  • Yes, it has the bot icon

  • The problem with this kind of stuff is that it HAS to be internet facing, and you want it to be stable so you don't cause dead links.

    You don't want to be hosting software that's not getting security updates, especially while linking to it randomly over the internet.

  • Has anyone seeing this migrated from the US to the UK as a dual citizen? What are some challenges to look out for when getting established in the UK?

    Jump

  • Every financial institution will ask if you are a US citizen. Most will refuse to accept you as a customer because they CBA with the tax bullshit.

    See if you can find a bank that will accept you now, so you are no scrambling when you get here.

  • GitHub Actions Is Slowly Killing Your Engineering Team - Ian Duncan

    Jump

  • My work uses Azure Dev Ops because it's "free", I assume it's effectively just GitHub actions, but without the AI (because no one has updated it in the last 5 years)?

    If so, I can agree the agents are awful.

  • Who works at a (tech) company that's not delirious about AI?

    Jump

  • For the size of data that oil exploration requires, tapes make lots of sense still.

    They have higher density, and they are more shock proof. When you need to move masses of data round the world, writing it to tape, then sticking it on a plane is still the fastest way to move it (probably, may have changed I guess)

  • Self Hosting for Privacy - Importance of Owning your own Modem/Router?

  • Depends entirely on the ISP

  • Keypass with the vault loaded onto a free OneDrive account.

    Just back it up occasionally.

  • ‘Devastating blow’: Atlassian lays off 1,600 workers ahead of AI push

    Jump

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

  • My employer likes vibe-coding. What do I do?

    Jump

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

    Jump

  • 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!

    Jump

  • 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.

  • 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.

  • Claude Code deletes developers' production setup, including its database and snapshots — 2.5 years of records were nuked in an instant

    Jump

  • 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.

  • They are backups, you potentially get copy's of the data in multiple locations across continents.

    BUT I agree, you are relying on them entirely for it. Lots of vendor tie in stuff in the industry unfortunately.

    Jump

  • With some of the cloud providers, their built in backups are linked to the resource. So even if you have super duper geo-zone redundant backups for years, they still get nuked if you drop the server.

    It's always felt a bit stupid, but the backups can still normally be restored by support.

  • Does anyone have any experience with Sync-in for online files?

    Jump

  • Sorry, brain fart moment.

    I meant online only - the complete opposite of what I wrote ....

    I want to be able to upload files and have them stored on the server and only downloaded when needed (or if I mark them as always downloaded)

    I don't need or want everything on my laptop or phone (requires lots of storage!), but want to be able to get them easily when I do.

  • It doesn't support offline online only files though. I can't dump a few hundred GB on there and then access it from my phone etc
