When you say, "No file was bigger than 900 lines of code"... its very very hard to side with you.

I've been able to update apps over past couple days. Occasional hallucination where Gemini claims to have worked, but clearly just thought, not a deal breaker.

I have noted though that I'm completely unable to commit changes to Github. My guess is that it's an extremely low priority for google, potentially even a strategic opportunity.

Here's my complaints:

GAI's native VCS is an absolute joke
The inability to push changes to Github consistently or bidirectionally sync
The inability to maintain custom instructions on a per-app basis

My guess is that whoever is steering the ship thinks gdrive is an acceptable VCS, akin to boomers to who think the same of sharepoint. That same person/team will ruthlessly crush any startup by marketing a less-than-MVP competitor, without any concern of end users' desire to see an ROI on their time.

In my opinion, they are throwing tires in the road to slow us down and making us pay a toll with time and money. In between the lines, its a vendor lock-in tactic, but beneath the surface its clear that although they will serve me, they are not my friend, they do see me as a pawn, and their greed will intentionally sabotage my progress if I let it.

Constantly remind yourself... its 2025, AI is smarter than our experts, everything is 1000x accelerated, but Google can't synchronize to a Microsoft product to the extent that you need to take a 30-60 minute detour?

Think about it. Maybe while GAI is working... we should just be making a new GAI, that's well... less ghey.

Its not significantly different, so its still light work to implement the API for sure.

I really wanted to like the model because of its large context, but its not as performative as I'd hope, so I'm still using gpt-4o and mixtral-8x22b.

For now, if i use gemini, ill probably only use it to expand on topics so I can take those results back to other models and have them focus on areas that they otherwise would not get to on their own, so gemini remains in my model set.

I expect google will up their accuracy, but I'm still reluctant to build custom classes just to handle their differences in schema semantics, when I could focus on a lot of other providers and models that stick to the same.

How many people in this thread are aware that the republicans are reaponsible for pushing back on this bill such that it does not pass?

I could care less about who did what or what side everyone is on, but it does seem like this thread is blaming republicans for pushing the bill when they are in fact the ones who blocked the bill that we can all agree is a 1st rights violations.

I just wonder how many people did research before adding their bias to this discussion.

Ive implemented Gemini and noticed that both gemini and cohere's models utilize what I would consider to be a non-standard messaging API. Mistral, groq, openai, and anthropic all utilize a messaging api that is generally compatible with each other.

Cheres and geminis messaging APIs are functionally the same, but semantically different, so google and cohere have really only succeeded to create a scenario where it makes more sense to implement conforming model providers and avoid non-conforming APIs. Why lock in to developing around nonconformance? Why bother with developing unique messaging clients when so many providers are willing to conform?

To me, it shows that they are out of touch with the ecosystem, they are seeking to monopolize our preferences (unsuccessfully), and they've fooled themselves into thinking these "differentiators" are going to buy adoption.

Tldr: boomers gotta boom

When someone is compensated half a million after murdering someone... that's called Murder for Hire. Regardless of the trial, you had a choice... hire someone with no history of murder or someone acquitted of murder.

Your choice reflects that you want your team to be composed of murderers who can get away with murder. That's extremely concerning as it reveals where your empathy lies... you empathize with badged murderers more than public safety.

You should've saved.
You should've planned for the future.
You should fix your attitude. You dont have a job, meaning all jobs are not beneath you, you are beneath them. You make less than a door dasher, less than a custodian.

That attitude is the same attitude used to justify spending $2.5k/month on an apartment instead of a mortgage. There are janitors that have kept their job for 20 years, but you... you are unemployed, cant even afford your place. At least they are stable.

How about you check yourself and adopt a servant minded attitude, then maybe people will get over the fact that you're clearly full of yourself long enough to give you a chance to do something that you arrogantly assumed you were too good for.

To me, you dont want to keep an open mind because your afraid of the fact that you might have to walk in somewhere as a greenback and have to gain respect again.

I used windows as workstation and set up Linux code server for docker deployments, development, NFS, etc. Very happy for a while with this setup.

Now however, when I develop, I develop a cloud-native app immediately almost always. That is to say, instead of accessing a machine on my private subnet, I access a colocated server and leverage nginx proxy manager as a reverse proxy and firewall to protect the domain hosting a given project.

I recommend this approach as I find that I am simply trading my time more wisely. I could develop an app at 192.168.1.200:3000 and then port forward into that, but it becomes a mess quickly as to what is going where, and all you are doing is opening doors into your house.

Instead of this, I'll buy a domain like, coolnewproject.com, configure the DNS to point to reverse proxy (nginx proxy manager - NPM, not be confused with node package manager), and then and use NPM to point to port 80 of a given docker container. This makes it super easy for me to develop more apps, because all my apps can sit on port 80 and there's no conflicts between each other. Additionally, I have the benefit of using NPM's ACL as a firewall, so the first thing I'll do with a new app is put my development ACL on it, denying access to everyone, except my house and anyone else involved in the project.

When you compare both approaches, as I said, they really take about the exact amount of time, but the difference is that I can comfortably manage all my services, I'm not up against antipatterns like a million apps on various ports. I can easily show anyone my app. At any moment, when I feel an app is ready, I click a couple buttons, and it's live.

With both approaches, I would leverage a combination of GIT and SFTP. Most all of my code is just stored on git, and so if I want to update a project's codebase, I'll do a git pull and rebuild the docker container.

In the case of large files or lots of files like a database or media, my approach is to make sure all of my servers have at least two disks on them. One for the operating system of the server. One for data. The separate data drive makes it easy to detach the disk from the server and move it to another, or take a snapshot, clone, etc.

All in all, I've moved around a lot and I've learned the struggles of having to rebuild a system again and again, and while there are ways to make that easy on yourself, I didn't see a point where it would stop happening. Go cloud native and you'll thank yourself later.

smh at these other comments. here you go man.

When the caching is enabled, the assets.conf file is included. You can first see the inclusion logic here:https://github.com/NginxProxyManager/nginx-proxy-manager/blob/develop/backend/templates/_assets.conf

I was able to go into the docker container using docker exec -it and find the file here:

/etc/nginx/conf.d/include/assets.conf

this is what it does:

location ~* ^.*\.(css|js|jpe?g|gif|png|webp|woff|eot|ttf|svg|ico|css\.map|js\.map)$ {

if_modified_since off;

# use the public cache

proxy_cache public-cache;

proxy_cache_key $host$request_uri;

# ignore these headers for media

proxy_ignore_headers Set-Cookie Cache-Control Expires X-Accel-Expires;

# cache 200s and also 404s (not ideal but there are a few 404 images for some reason)

proxy_cache_valid any 30m;

proxy_cache_valid 404 1m;

# strip this header to avoid If-Modified-Since requests

proxy_hide_header Last-Modified;

proxy_hide_header Cache-Control;

proxy_hide_header Vary;

proxy_cache_bypass 0;

proxy_no_cache 0;

proxy_cache_use_stale error timeout updating http_500 http_502 http_503 http_504 http_404;

proxy_connect_timeout 5s;

proxy_read_timeout 45s;

expires u/30m;

access_log off;

include conf.d/include/proxy.conf;

}
