I like Cory Doctorow’s take: AI is good for single-use, personal code to solve an immediate problem, and terrible for long-term, production projects. I imagine there’s a bunch of neophytes out there who use AI to create their first project, find out that github exists, and thinks someone else must be having the same problem they just solved, so why not release it to the public?
Dunno how well it would work with kubernates internal networks, but my DNS is configured with different views for internal and external clients. So, when letsencrypt does a lookup, they get the external IP, but when an internal client looks up the same name, they get the internal IP. TLS is happy, because the certificate matches the name. I’m happy because it works even when the ISP is down.
Can’t imagine they would be personal-use lockers, especially not with doors that display the contents. Have to imagine that they were no-lock ‘lockers’ to hold common-use balls & gear out of the weather when not in use.
I suppose they could be rental/honor-box - insert quarter to get ball, please return when done, but I don’t think I’d call that a ‘locker.’

Why would I want to learn wordpress, much less spin up a database, for that?
That seems a lot more useful than binary tags. There’s a wide spectrum between fully vibe-coded slop and hand-written with vim.
“Collaboration” “Mentoring” Outside of thee military, few companies have any mechanism to train people to move up the corporate ladder. If you’re not there watching the boss, then you have no idea how to do their job. If the boss can’t see you, they can’t delegate the little tasks that amount to job training. If the boss can’t see you, they have no way to evaluate whether you’re helping or not.
The boss got his job by watching his boss and being in the right place when some opportunity came up, so that’s their entire understanding of corporate advancement.
Is the topic of financial/trading tools just completely off-limits here, even if it’s AGPL and self-hosted?
Not necessarily. The platform (lemmy, not just c/selfhosted) is full of anti-corporate leftists and anarchists. You’re more likely to find people who want to burn the stock market to the ground than to participate in it, esp highly speculative algo trading.
I’ve seen plenty of people ask about self-hosted personal finance or portfolio tracking, so there are people for whom your project might be relevant. Just seems more like a r/wallstreetbets kind of thing than a lemmy kind of thing.

I started doing the One True Database method because I got worried that the high write count on all the little db’s was abusing a raspberry pi’s SD card. Moved them all to a bigger server with NVME and mirroring to a RAID.
Not all the compose files make obvious how to reconfigure the db host. Homeassistant uses s a sqlite db built into the container, rather than a separate unit, but you can force it to use a remote db through its config file. May or may not be worth hiding db user/pass in a .env And sometimes there’s trouble restarting after power failure, depending on what order the database, pi, and various containers come back up.
I also feel it’s worthwhile. I feel better being able to check on all the databases. Feel better not writing to the SD card so much. Feel better offloading those megabytes and cpu cycles from the little pi. It’s been fun snooping through database structures. There have been a couple times where I decided to query one of the ccontain databases directly, or cross from one project to another, and it’s easier (for me) to give a different user privileges to the database and query some deep bit of data than to figure out how to extract it from an API or frontend.
I’m not even running that many services, but why would I want the overhead of 6 separate mysql instances when I could just have one?
A records return the numerical address of a name.
CNAME returns a different name for a name. Basically ‘synonym’ so the maintainer only has to change the one master, A record when the IP address changes. Convenient to use CNAME to point www.example.com to example.com, but you can use it just as well to point example.com at my.private.host.xyz You can even chain multiple CNAMEs to make it easier to manage a complex backend structure while presenting a simple address to users.
The US spent a lot of money on soft power, essentially bribing countries to go along with their agenda. Much of that money did actually improve people’s lives, whether it was food aid, vaccinations, or AIDS care. Sure, it was to further their own objectives. Sure, it’s mostly because it’s cheaper to buy compliance than to bomb people into compliance. Humanitarian aid with strings attached is still humanitarian aid, though, or the collapse of USAID wouldn’t be such a problem.
The very broad funds definitely will - VTI/VTSAX - but at lower weights and under less time pressure than the rigid index funds (VOO/VFIAX). That takes off a lot of the liquidity squeeze and (presumably) reduces their loss.
But you have to remember that people who use these funds intentionally invest in obvious losers and willingly overpay for hyped stocks because they believe, in the long run, that buying obvious losers is more than balanced by also buying the unexpected winners.
SpaceX is just the first time an oligarch tried so obviously to rig the passive investor structure to his favor, and I’m glad the S&P people didn’t cave.
My mom is one of those grannies. They moved out of my childhood home a couple years back, and she still calls up the old neighbors for pictures of ‘her’ house, so she can be upset about how poorly it’s been cared for.
I’d much rather have a wild, life haven.
Doesn’t work that way on lemmy: if they delete the post, then the alt’s shilling disappears, too.
or at least change the title to [solved] with a link to the comment that worked.
Uncheck “Send notifications to Email” in your settings. Or get a 3rd party app with a notifications setting.
Could they be astroturfing, looking for a specific solution to fill search engines with their own product placement, then deleting because most of the comments are other FOSS solutions?
What I’ve seen indicates SpaceX will become something like 0.1% of S&P and 0.5% of Nasdaq. If a retirement fund is one of those indexes, and they get ‘forced’ to buy at 2x SpaceX’s eventual value, then that’s a loss of 0.05-0.2%. $50-200 on $100,000 principal.
Most normal people won’t notice that among the usual stock market noise. Over a hundred million account, though, it’s a huge amount of money getting funneled into the thousands accounts able to front-run the index inclusion, which means, in turn, a huge amount of money getting funneled into the dozens of VCs who got into SpaceX pre-IPO.
It’s like the scam from Office Space where they collect the rounding errors on interest.
According to the IPO docs, something like 90% of SpaceX’s future earnings are from its AI business, which it projects to have trillions of annual revenue. It’s a mystery to me why so many apparently serious investors are treating it like anything other than a scam.
Having not gone to any of my 40-or-so reunions, I feel like they would only get interesting after 20. Maybe 30. That’s long enough for everyone to have finished all the school they’re going to do, for people to have moved beyond their first jobs, or even first careers, and to have experienced enough life to really become their own people.
