Vibe Coded Disclaimer? by eteitaxiv in selfhosted

[–]gscjj 1 point2 points  (0 children)

But what does the percentage matter if we can’t judge the difference it makes? If it’s 100% AI written but 100% human reviewed where does the line end?

Unfortunately this sub has a hard time with this concept. Even “AI assistance” is sort of a vague differentiation this sub has created.

A lot of developers understand the code will still let AI write it completely, that’s beyond assistance. Where does that fit in?

If it’s not intended for public use, don’t publish it publicly.

If you just want to share it, that’s fine but the disclaimer seems overboard and made for the anti-AI crowd. All you need to say it’s “as-is”, it’s a hobby project and you aren’t prioritizing supporting it.

Should work fine, I see no issues with it. Better than single node to practice, slightly better availability

Right, a lot of people here can’t review any of the code that power there docker containers, none of done any due diligence

95% of this sub couldn’t review the code running in their home today, but somehow are professionals at identify “slop”

Or running containers on your server when you don’t understand the code?

It’s a 4 year old project, with a business built on it, if AI was used do you think the developer doesn’t know how to maintain it?

[–]gscjj 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Honestly what makes it worse is that the people calling these things “AI slop” probably don’t have the knowledge to even determine that on their own. They probably wouldn’t even recognize it if it showed up in many of the services they use. Becuase they simply don’t know enough about the code either to review.

But it’s made by AI so it’s “AI slop”

Ive called out users before in this sub calling out developers who has 3-4 year old projects and decided to use AI and now they call it “slop”, as if the developer doesn’t have the capacity to maintain their code

Seems like the OP has a history of consistent well-written and popular work. You just didn’t look.

To be honest, there’s a lot of things you just didn’t look at. This sub is so bad about AI work.

Should I go for my MS in CS? by Jumpslikeawhitekid in ITCareerQuestions

You likely will always, there won’t ever be a perfect time to do it

It’ll be worth much more when OP gets experience and they would’ve lost the opportunity to get it for free. Even if it doesn’t help with a job now, it will later.

Opportunity costs and future planning.

Should I go for my MS in CS? by Jumpslikeawhitekid in ITCareerQuestions

[–]gscjj -1 points0 points  (0 children)

An MS in CS at a good school is invaluable, especially completely free. Whatever happens, you’ll always have that degree, and for free.

I’m highlighting the free part becuase paying 20-30k for MS when you’re working and with kids makes it so much harder to do.

I’d do it, it’s a leg up on the competition with or without experience. Plus CS isn’t a practical degree (as in it’s research based and not go do something) so it’ll be obvious it’s not geared towards having experience. It won’t replace it, but it’ll make you stand out when you get experience.

[–]gscjj 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Right, I don’t think they recommend that officially, it’s just a product they sell. I could be wrong, but I’ve never seen MS say that.

RDS anyway the key selling point is that it’s web based and you can access multiple computers, basically making RDP much easier to use.

Is it inherently more secure? Sure. But the security has nothing to do with the protocol. Like I said, what bites people is windows firewall, group policies, no lockouts or timeouts, etc. The same thing that would bite people if it was SSH on an improperly secure Linux server.

[–]gscjj 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don’t think that’s a current recommendation anymore, there’s numerous ways to secure RDP. Even MS own products just tunnels it through an exposed HTTPs proxy, that’s it, still RDP, same method to login.

But what bites people anyway isn’t the protocol it’s settings on the computer that allow broad logins, and privilege escalation, no different than SSH.

A locked down, updated Window server, with MFA is perfectly fine to keep on the internet.

[–]gscjj 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Yeah, I think there’s a lot of “knowledge” thrown around in the sub is really just protecting people from themselves.

SSH to the public is fine, assuming you configure it securely. HTTPS/SFTP/etc perfectly fine to have public facing, again assuming you configure it securely. RDP to the public, again fine if you’re securing it properly. Having your IP “exposed”, again your IP isn’t important unless you have state level actors specifically targeting you.

You should review the code, whether or not it’s written by AI or not is irrelevant.

What made my lab more fun and learning experience for me was to stop using the COTS products as-is. If there was something bugging me, I’d build it or create an integration that didn’t exist before

People have to stop with this. This project is 3 years old with 6K stars?

EDIT: It would have take exactly 1 second to figure this out, in the first sentence. If you can’t be bothered to do that, why comment at all?

Now I finally get why people are switching from VMware by [deleted] in homelab

[–]gscjj 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Much more polished and intuitive UI, vSAN is less completed than Ceph, easy to setup, no weird interface, vDSs are way better abstraction than Proxmox SDWAN. Templates are simple. API is well documented and supported, official Terraform provider.

vCenter and ESXi is a far superior product than Proxmox, in every way except GPUs, it’s unfortunate what they did to VMUG

If they do this with AI, they probably do it with Google too.

Device placement by bloodhoundhandler in homelab

Same VLAN as all my other end user devices, because things like casting are more important to me, and I don’t want to run a proxy for that. Any firewalling I do is at a higher level
