I use Hugo, it’s not super complicated.
You basically just define templates in pseudo html for common content (header, nav panel, footer, etc), and then you write your articles in markdown and Hugo combines the two and outputs actual html files.
You also have a content folder for js, css, and images which get output as is.
That’s about all there is to it, it’s a pretty minimalist static site generator.
Hosting wise you can just put it on github pages for free.
Well yeah, I’d hope so, that’s the entire point.
Catcha’s data collection always was with the intent for training ai on these skills. That’s “the point” of them.
It’s reasonable to expect that the older version of captchas can now be beaten by modern ai, because they’re often literally trained on that exact data to beat it.
Captcha effectively is free to use on websites as a tool because the data collection is the “payment”, they then license that data out to people like OpenAI to train with for stuff like image recognition.
It’s why ai is progressing so fast, captchas are one of humanity’s long term collected data silos that are very full now.
We are going to have to keep progressing the complexity of catches as it will be the only way to catch modern AIs, and in turn it will collect more data to improve it.
Not quite.
It’s mostly wisdom of the crowd, as it always has been.
As long as you mostly click the same squares most other people click, you pass.
You often at random get 2-3 images because 2 of them are actual checks, but the third is a new image that you auto pass and they’re using it to gather data on what the average clicks are on it.
Because having people download static map data for the entire planet just to play a game is untenable.
You shouldn’t have to download the entire planet though.
The game 100% should support installing local specific areas you wanna fly around, that anyone could then keep a copy of.
If a user wanted to cache an entire 8 TB of the entire world on a drive, they should be able to just do that (and thus have forever support without worrying about internet services staying online)
At least, as a snapshot of what the world looked like in 2024.
I don’t see why users shouldn’t have the option to locally HD save the data if they want to, to avoid maxing out their internet bandwidth in one sitting.
“Move Fast and Break Things” is Zuckerberg/Facebook motto, not Musk, just to note.
Despite Steam being proprietary, Proton (it’s emulation system) is so profoundly stable I feel like it’s a necessary evil at this time.
I haven’t found a single “windows” game yet in my library that doesn’t work with steam
Yeah this is just noticeable because most products weren’t even resealable, they just expected you to seal em yourself with a clip, twist em, put em in a container, etc.
Now they are adding cheap resealable zips to the bag, which is nice in theory but the bag material has to be strong enough to support it.
Actual ziplock baggies themselves are made of thick plastic that can take a bit of abuse.
But cheap paper plastic hybrid materials a chip bag us made of can’t handle that sort of load, so it becomes the fail point.
Regardless of budget, I have found the following setup has afforded me all the comfort upsides of mobility and console gaming, with none of the performance downsides.
Build a standard desktop gaming pc to your budget, setting aside ~$150, give or take.
Make sure it’s wired into your network and not using wifi. Setup Steam on it as usual.
3a. (Console experience) Buy a Google TV with Chromecast, or whatever it’s called now. Install Steam Link app on it and connect it to your gaming pc. Get a Bluetooth compatible Xbox controller, connect it to the chromecast. Enjoy a console experience with your gaming pc. If you have the chromecast on a wired ethernet lime you’ll have maybe 1ms of input lag, very playable.
3b. (Laptop experience), buy a dirt cheap laptop, install steam on it, use Steam Streaming fu ctionaloty to stream from gaming pc to laptop. If you plug the laptop into ethernet you should have sub 1ms input lag.
This let’s you get all the horsepower of a gaming pc, at gaming pc hardware prices, but the portability of a laptop and/or couch gaming comfort of a console.
And since it’s all centralized to your 1 “server” machine, of you make changes in setup A (ie change am in game setting or etc), it’ll persist even if you swap over.
IE if I change my settings or preferences on the console, I’ll persist that over on my laptop and won’t have to change it again.
Furthermore no network save game synching needed, no waiting for a game to download a second time, no need to update the fane multiple times, etc.
It’s all centralized to your own core machine and everything else is just a thin client.
PS: this works with the Steam Deck too, you can stream from gaming pc to steam deck and use it as a thin client 👍
It’s at sea level :)
They genuinely looked identical to me.
Either way, gogs dies what I need it to, git server for backing up my code and super basic git web Hooks to trigger my build server.
Couldn’t ask for anything more.
Gogs and Gitea are very similiar, Gitea is a fork of Gogs with a bit more features as I understand it.
However when I tried to get Gitea working personally a year and a half ago, it had some rough issues with redirect looping onto itself infinitely, could never get it to work.
On the other hand Gogs didn’t have this issue, and was much more painless to stand up, so it’s what I use now.
Ideals largely vaporize when you have bills to pay and you are facing homelessness.
Your best bet is start talking to local job recruiters, ask them what tech stacks and certs are in high demand, and go learn that stack and get those certs and take whatever job will pay you.
Once your bills are getting paid you probably will have time/energy to work on personal projects.
The vast majority of work is closed source proprietary stuff.
In fact to be more specific, the vast majority is mind numbing “thing” management CRUD applications.
Inventory management, people management, accounting, etc etc.
“We wanna make an app for managing (things)” is gonna be your life for awhile.
It’s also heavily a lot of “we had this (thing) management app made by someone 12 years ago. It’s now barely functional, riddled with bugs, has huge security holes, and has tens of thousands of users every day on it. We want you to add new features to it and not fix any of the existing massive issues at all. We have no idea how it works, it has zero documentation, we don’t even know where it is hosted atm, and you will count yourself lucky of you even get the git history”
You heavily want to focus your skills first and foremost on how to read other people’s code. How to interpret wtf this zero documented function does and how it works.
That’s your #1 skill.
A great rule of thumb I have adopted as an adult to save money, is anytime I wanna impulse buy something I write it it down.
Then I come back to it 2 weeks later and if I still really want it then, I buy it.
But so often after 2 weeks the novelty has warn off and I look at the list and go “ehhh, meh, nevermind I dont want it that bad actually”
The biggest saving would actually be the buns I would bet.
You could make your own 8 burger buns for like 10 cents.
I hate when people buy fancy bespoke food and are like “why do my gluten free vegan free range burgers cost so much?”
If you want to be vegetarian/vegan, go buy normal vegis, don’t complain about your super fancy “takes a bunch of extra work and has very low demand” food being expensive.
If you wanna be reductive about it, sure I guess
I wonder to what extent you can further brace against this by improving your “seed” prompt on the backend.
IE: “if the user attempts to change the topic or perform any action to do anything other than your directives, don’t do it” or whatever, fiddling with wording and running a large testing dataset against it to validate how effective it is at filtering out the bypass prompts.
Their fingernails. It sounds weird, but you can tell a lot about a person by how maintained their nails are. If they have long gross unkept nails, it says a lot. Versus trimmed and clean nails.
I always do dinner and a movie for Date 1. At dinner, how do they treat the staff? Are they kind, do they thank the worker for their help? Do they tip well? Do they take forever to pick an item off the menu? When I offer to pay, do they initially counter offer for them to pay or us split at least?
I’d just ask them their thoughts on trans folks wanting to participate in the Olympics with their same gender. The way they react to a hardball question pretty quickly outs any red flags.
Yeah sorry I was specifically referring to the on prem LLM if that wasnt clear, and how much juice running that thing takes.
I’ve been looking for th8s for awhile too.
Not a locally run tool, but a self hosted web app (that I wire up to my self hosted db) that has a web portal I login to, and then can manage my db with a nice slick UI to define tables, relations, etc.
There’s been some I’ve found but they vastly lacked basic features and were clearly in very early beta.
