I don’t publish my own content often but what I have seen work is posting to relevant subreddits where people may find the topic interesting.

As for your second question, I find most of my tech content here, Reddit, and (oddly) Instagram. I find The Almighty Algorithms to be a better source of interesting content than my own curated list of sites.

Didn't know this was a thing. I'll look into it.

Author here, happy to answer any questions. I never imagined a polyfill for http_build_url would gain so much traction. After 12 years, deprecating it feels like the right move, especially given the new options from the community and PHP itself.

Yeah, this was one of my first thoughts too. It’s impossible to know but I wonder how many of these “unknown exploits” have been in use by government agencies for years already. Or decades, apparently.

I have to agree with you. We don’t talk nearly enough about the real signal to nose ratio.

(Sorry. I couldn’t resist lol)

I've been running Ollama in my home lab for awhile now but I wanted to experiment with running something a little more "low level". I saw a ton of posts about Llama.cpp, which looked interesting, but there wasn't a lot specifically about running vLLM on Proxmox, so I thought I'd give it a try. Setting up vLLM in an LXC wasn’t necessarily difficult but, even after doing it several times, it was still tedious. These are the notes I’ve taken along the way, if only for my own reference next weekend.

Feel free to tell me what I got wrong :)

Ya know, that’s what I would’ve thought as well, but a year or two ago Chase Bank refused to take my loose change. They sent me away with the paper to roll the coins myself to bring back to them

Don’t worry about it. He got rid of it.

Yes, I’d like the less cancerous car today, please. Thank you!

This sounds like the setup to a bad joke.
