End of an era for predictable costs as a small business. We will refer to these times as ‘the good old days’.

How capable are these models at tool calling?

This is an excellent article.

We’re all just swimming as the AI wave comes crashing on every developer out there - we can keep swimming, dive or surf. Picking a strategy is necessary but it would probably be good to be able to do all of the above.

In case you missed it in the article, the author seems to address this in the section titled 'Effectively Managing the Norm'.

From my experience hardware acceleration has been quite lacking on Ubuntu (especially noticeable when watching YouTube).

Can you cite those statements?

Your friends did whatever was needed to pass the interview. You did not.

How is it surprising that they're the ones getting raises? Clearly they're willing to risk more than you are for the reward.

Only getting caught cheating guarantees loss.

Playing fair does not guarantee winning.

Seems quite expensive for anything but hobby scale projects... Or am I missing something?

Does anyone have experience integrating 3rd party auth systems (ex Keycloak) with Postgrest? How did that experience go?

Yes absolutely a Pi is likely plenty assuming it's fairly light load. That said, if you prefer x86 you may have better mileage using an older thinclient or perhaps even something like the ODroid H3 (or frankly any old laptop).

Just be sure to have a decent backup system in place as consumer grade equipment like the above may fail rather abruptly with little route to recovery.

Edit: you may want to check out Jupiter Broadcasting's Self-Hosted podcast. The show is very much geared towards DIY enthusiasts/small businesses.

I wonder what kind of growth Mastodon saw over the last 24hrs.

On X when in a Zoom call, if I drag any window around the whole DE starts tearing wildly to the point of it being very distracting. On Wayland, it's smooth as butter (or Windows or MacOS for that matter).

This is just one very easy to replicate example. There are a bunch of other seemingly simple tasks that lead to some rather hideous tearing in X.

StackEdit has fully taken over all of my Markdown note writing. It's a fabulous free little PWA that keeps things simple and gets the job done.
