  • I use massive amounts of AI for home lab dev and operations. It’s an incredible tech that unlocks so much for homelab devs. I never would have the time or patience to build out an entire system like I have now.

    It has allowed me to de-google my life completely now. I run SSO with a mail server, file server, gitea, arr stack, immich for photos, and dozens more things. The whole stack monitors and acts on alerts by itself. Quite wild.

    I use a couple DGX Spark boxes for inference. Currently running Deepseek v4 Flash 0731.

    I have zero reliance on big tech now (aside from the annoying Google sso; that will take time to migrate away from).

    So yes, I use AI just a tad. It would be foolish not to.

    Some background: I’ve been a professional software dev/arch for 35 years.











  • What problem does it solve where? It’s an immutable data ledger. It solves trustless interactions.

    Raising capital, trading, etc. it moves financial markets from proprietary pay to play arenas (wall st), to an open model.

    If you hate money and markets, you’ll hate it too. But it does solve worldwide instantaneous value transfer.

    Box is a bad example; it always has a value and can’t be unwrapped. It’s Result<T> and Option<T> that are the primary wrappers.

    Result is for Errors, and Option is for nullables. If you consider it that way, the “issues” with unwrap are identical to other languages when errors and nulls aren’t properly handled.



  • Look no further than Lightshot. It’s free, it can replace the PrntScn button. It lets you draw a rectangle, then add arrows, lines, text, then either copy to clipboard or save to disk.

    Then it disappears. No unneeded prompts, no wasting your time, no ads, no upsells. Nothing. Lightweight, simple, and free. It’s like a throwback to the 90’s freeware.

    As a software developer working with QA and often having to explain things to others as well, I’ve used this for years. It is the most optimal and efficient software for this purpose.
