No citation for that number, I wonder how they came to it.

4 million sites for a global population of 8 billion means 1/2000. That doesn’t sound sustainable.

They are traditionally quite fond of defenestrating, so there is an inate desire to create windows.

My apologies, I didn’t mean to imply anything about you personally, only that your Hollywood name would make some funny headlines.

As always, the error bars on steam survey stats are huge, and reporting on every little blip is nothing more than click-baiting.

I’ve had three cloudkey harddisks die on me, so I’m a little jaded.

Never considered poe injectors because once get get a couple you may as well just have a switch. But if you can get them cheap then sure.

Australians abroad can vote by mail or at their nearest consulate. No need to renounce your citizenship.

Edit: on re-reading, I think you typo’d not -> now

Unifi doesn’t need cloud, the storage is local. But unless youre already in the unifi ecosystem, their doorbells are expensive, as you also need poe switch and a cloud key (which is a poorly named local NVR).

If its safety related, use a paid for tool if you can afford it. The cost you pay for is for all the testing and reliability, that you can’t replicate with a diy solution.

You’ll feel terrible if something happens and your solution doesn’t work in the moment.

University prestige doesn’t matter at all in my experience. Unless you go to a pay-to-get-degree uni, your grades matter more. And all of that is worthless after you get your first job, because then its experience from there onwards.

If you were in the EU, right to be forgotten laws would help, but I guess you are not.

But that is definitely a good reason to name change, it would be a problem for job interviews :/

Wouldn’t a “zany” last name become just as identifiable as your current unique name?

I figured the latency improvement would be marginal at best, was mostly curious.

Heat though is a concern, so maybe I’ll look into a DAC if I can find one cheap enough. The modules I have don’t seem too hot, but these switches are in an enclosed cupboard, so every watt I can cut out is a win.

Anyone know if a DAC will have any benefit over a SFP->RJ45 <–> RJ45<-SFP link? The SFP is limited to 1GB anyway, but I’m curious to know if there is a latency hit.

Not curious enough to run out and buy one though.

The description of this community is not a hard rule written in stone, and I would treat it as more of a vibe than a criteria.

If you want to take it literally, then yes, Plex doesn’t count, neither does cloudflare or wordpress. And many other proprietary systems commonly used by the self hosting community.

But I think the spirit of this community is a bit more loose, and there is room for the likes of Plex.

I don’t think there are any hard and fast rules for what is self hosting. Lots of people use cloudflare, which would fail both of your criteria as well.

At least with Plex/cloudflare/others, your overall control and privacy is better and more in your control than it would be with other non-self hosted alternatives.

It is over simplified, but there are often implicit requirements that a human would be aware of from the broader context that the LLM may not be.

i.e add is used to increment a health bar, so wrap around doesn’t make sense.

int add(int a, int b) {
    return a + b;
}

This code is clearly functional, it’ll compile and execute.

However, the customer actually needs the code to do a saturating add.

With that knowledge, we can clearly see that the code is not correct. It will not saturate, it will wrap around instead.

Without that knowledge, an LLM will happily write some basic unit tests that won’t cover the saturation edge case, and the bug would live on until its hit in prod.

If you’re lucky, and your function doco is good, the LLM might spot the bug, and notify you.

My personal preference for how to generate tests is to ask the agent to write specific tests. E.g: “write a test for add that demonstrates that it saturates”.

Timing and tests, name a better migraine duo :D.

We continuously create tests that ensure a process completes in an set amount of time, and every time, we don’t give them enough leeway, and the test will fail randomly if the CI runner gets overloaded.

Testing functionality isn’t the same as correctness.
