I’m trying to make Ollama more accessible so I can replace Chatgpt.

• I installed open-webui but I don’t wanna deal with tls certs so now I gotta figure out a way to use ssh tunnels (I hate Wireguard)
• I gotta figure out how Ollama can keep a model alive to answer me asap while not interrupting videogames
• I want to build tools for open-webui so I can integrate my local AI with Google calendar and Jira, right now it’s my open-api-toolkit project but it’s not ready for me yet.

I realized how much info I’ve been pushing to Chatgpt and it feels like 10000x more that what I’ve exposed to Google or Instagram. I share with Chatgpt all my wildest secret project ideas and I don’t want Chatgpt to have that anymore. I hope deleting my account will actually delete my chats but I know for a fact that that’s a dream.

NixOS makes me feel so safe making low-level changes to Linux and making sure that my work laptop, gaming desktop, and personal laptop all have the exact same shit on them and I’m gonna use them the exact same way.

I wish that nixlang was decoupled from the concept of a build system bc it’s such a great DAG config DSL and I can think of so many cooler uses for it but I just don’t have time to focus on it.

I really feel compelled to share that I actually really fucking love nix. I’ve never felt so confident that my computer would turn on no problem. It was hard and it was rewarding.

Idk I guess I haven’t had it for long but once I got my dotfiles the way I like I just stopped messing with it.

Also nix devshells are pretty dope (⁠◕⁠ᴗ⁠◕⁠✿⁠)

The companies might change but the bills stay the same…

Tangent:

But does anyone remember that experimental subreddit that was only for bots to post and comment? Wonder what happened to it.

You’re allowed to hand wire breadboards with transistors and switches and capacitors and LEDs… You’re allowed to get shit done

½TB nvme SSD for the OS and any system/user level binary

1TB sata SSD for code projects, docker, and videogames

10tb HDD for just having a massive amount of fairly stable storage space. I gotta tell you I sleep really well knowing that at 4 in the morning a compressed disk image of my work SSD is being written to the hard drive.

My phone number was owned by a non-for-profit, and I’m still getting their calls 5-6 years later. Google Pixel phones have a phone-bot that picks up calls, introduces itself as a bot and asks you why you’re calling. So I just posted my phone number on my website to make sure people don’t think that it’s still the nfp

Please do not rummage. Anything besides rummaging

yt-dlp is still alive, well and actively developed. It can now target abunch of different platforms.

For your education:

Pacman like many other package managers tries to minimize network queries, to do this you download a manifest of every package available and its installation instructions. -Sy downloads the latest manifest from all of your pacman repos, -u installs the packages whose “version” field changed between the old and new manifests.

These error messages show that the domain name the manifest had for your package was unavailable, this is why you should check for updates.

Resting your eyes means going back to sleep

What do they mean “help”? Does this mean that they’re going to have to suffer with the consequences of paying devs?

Then I’d delete my old phone number account and start fresh… not exactly the best option but all things considered you might have too

Signal recently implemented “usernames” instead of phone numbers

If I have to put a thread object in a variable and call a method on it to start it then it’s OO multi threading. I don’t want to know when the thread spawns, I don’t want to know what code it’s running, and I don’t want to know when it’s done. I just want shit to happen at the same time (90% of the time)

On Linux most package managers download an index of every package, its requirements and installation instructions. This means I can search through it however I want.

How open would you guys be to scraping and compiling “search engine”-esq indicies on your local machines?

I’ve always hated object oriented multi threading. Goroutines (green threads) are just the best way 90% of the time. If I need to control where threads go I’ll write it in rust.

Ok peace love and fuck google but serious replies only

Why do we devs need Android?

Most apps I build just display shit. They show prompts to the user to guide them through what I want them too.

I can’t remember ever needing to implement some high frequency data processing onboard and even so. Webassembly and PWAs are getting better pretty dang fast (isn’t figma a 100% wasm-pwa?) so if I actually needed those I could have those.

The last remnants of what a program could do on bare metal is like LLMs and visual processing. I’d also rather have those in a standalone app but soon we’re gonna get some sort of WebNPU standard and (well) I might as well process images in webassembly (ノಠ益ಠ)ノ

Like imo browsers are becoming virtual machines with (what amounts to) an undefinably infinite app store.

When I freelance as an app developer I always encourage my clients to go the PWA route and then I wrap a PWA runner for the app stores because they only want to be on the app stores for marketing purposes and bc users are used to it.

Because that’s all that these OSs are, just UI’s wrapping a browser (in my humble opinion).

Genuine question: what would it take to poison an LLM with ai tools to run git push --force origin main or sudo rm -rf /
