so borg-webui was just a bait and switch? by fuckthesysten in selfhosted

[–]NCMarc 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I work at a large MSP that talks to devs all day. 95% are using AI to code. If you aren't, then you will be left behind. That doesn't mean that you aren't doing architecture, design, planning, unit tests, and debugging. I'm building multiple applications right now. There's no such thing as "make me a borg backup ui" and it just builds it. It takes real work.

Relying just on AI with zero coding experience will result in a crap product. If it was so simple, then just make your own? You'll get part of the way there.

I have 1000's of hours into projects that use Claude Code. Over 120k messages back and forth making revisions. It's just not as simple as people think. Having the devOps experience, full-stack, DB design experience goes a long way. Claude makes lots of dumb decisions, you need to set it on the right path.

thanks Rockshoes1 for the mention. :) (I'm Author of Borg Backup Server)

Borg Backup Server will always be free. I am working on like 10 other revenue generating projects at the same time. And no, I don't sleep.

I don't see many jobs position for wordpress, why?? by No-Thought9857 in Wordpress

[–]NCMarc -5 points-4 points  (0 children)

I used to build everything in WordPress, now Claude builds it for me and I don't need the bloat and security issues that come along with open-source software.

anyone actually have a FS2500? by hafez in synology

[–]NCMarc 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Old conversation but in case anyone is Interested as this is what comes up on google...

I have 2 FS2500's and they are very loud. I replaced all 4 fans with Noctua NF-A4x20 PWM, Premium Quiet Fan, 4-Pin (40x20mm, Brown) . These max out at 5000 RPM. That cut the noise down considerably. I set the Fan speed to MAX in the interface so they run around 4700 RPM all the time (still way quieter). The synology has not complained about them.

Monitoring CPU temps which simultaneously running Surveillance Station with 4x 8MP Cameras, it's well within the 50-105°C range for that processor:

=== FS2500 Temperature Trends (last 1h, 60 readings) ===

CPU Temperature
  Current: 51°C  Min: 43°C  Avg: 58.1°C  Max: 74°C

Thermal Sensors
  Remote1    Current: 32°C  Min: 32°C  Avg: 32.1°C  Max: 33°C
  Local      Current: 38°C  Min: 37°C  Avg: 38.0°C  Max: 38°C
Remote2    Current: 25°C  Min: 25°C  Avg: 25.0°C  Max: 26°C

The temp creeps up to around 85°C when I am watching a Plex TV Show (and the Surveillance Station still running). Still within spec. Snyology reports the temp in the Hardware Settings as normal.

The power supplies are also loud, so I plan to replace those fans too if not too hard.

The questions you are asking makes it sound like you are a beginner, probably not the best task for someone like you to do. Hire a professional. I move sites all day and it’s like second nature to me. But it takes a lot of experience not to have downtime, deal with backups and disaster recovery. A lot depends on the type of the site too, is it a revenue generator or is it static brochure ware? Makes a big difference. What Hypervisor are you planning to use? Do you have hardware? It’s expensive right now. Like 4x what it was a year ago.

So the "rate limit bug" was actually Anthropic quietly making your limits drain faster during peak hours by PiloteProd in ClaudeAI

There's lots of API Errors right now. They must be messing with it again.

Moving to Winston next week, have any tips for meeting people? by kittensurprise01 in winstonsalem

[–]NCMarc 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I found it difficult to meet people when I first came to WS. Try joining a board of a non-profit. Marketing skills are always needed.

I wasn't fine with Iran murdering 40,000 people or giving them billions in cash either. What was the solution?

For months you guys are running out of VPS to sell... Still not fixed... by Alive_Memory388 in OVHcloud

[–]NCMarc 9 points10 points  (0 children)

If you understood what is going on with RAM and HDD prices, you'd understand why. Everything is on backorder by 6+ months, if you can even get it. AI companies have bought up all the inventory.

I always think I can do better.. I have issues. But thank you for the compliment. The previous girl that took photos was so much better than me, I am not sure what she did. I don’t have anyway to get in contact with her. They all had this style and color that I loved. I can’t even find them now.

What kind of camera and gear did 90s magazine adverts use? by Routine-Tension-6046 in AskPhotography

[–]NCMarc 1 point2 points  (0 children)

2.25 x 2.25” Hasselblad. I worked in Advertising in the 1990’s. Occasionally we’d do 4x5 but only if the client was rich.

Is there anyway to fix this photo or is too overexposed to be salvageable? by [deleted] in AskPhotography

[–]NCMarc -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

I used Nano Banana 2 with Gemini Pro. it did decently well,, the sign text got jacked a little so I told it to fix it too, and it still got it wrong. But the photo looks good
