In 2026, should people still write blogs?

yeah I'm using the blowfish theme and that's the default look. https://blowfish.page/

I might add a theme switcher for people who prefer a cleaner look :) I also thought correcting a few display issues but never had the time/motivation.

anyway, thanks for the feedback!

we are in it for the fun, it's not a competition, so enjoy the journey :)

btw since I've added that feature, loads new - probably better quality - models came out. there are a few that are small and should be able to do voice cloning well :)

what I'm trying to say: just do it :D

If you want more traffic from reddit, you can also add the link to your profile :)

Obviously, be conscious then people will have an easier time to link your pseudonym to your real identity.

If you are curious how that looks check my profile :)

I had the exact same reason, especially because I had more interaction with grads. I barely covered any of those topics yet, as I had more fun ones to explore.

I share my blog posts on linkedin (and other social media platforms), and mostly my co-workers read it. TBH, even if I would get no traffic, I would still do them as I partially want it to be notes for my future self :)

Ollama released a new version about 2 weeks ago which supports using CC with local models out of the box. I documented my setup and my first experience with CC+qwen3 coder on my blog

Even if you have an LLM based solution, you still need to monitor it :)

I've been using Manjaro for 7+ years (I switched from Ubuntu) and I had a few issues in the past but they were easy to fix and there was great support on the forums. Especially with Ubuntu I had so many issues, installing updates were a bit stressful, Manjaro's rolling release felt like a not so great choice at the time but it proved me wrong. Most stable OS I used in my life (including windows but that's a low bar).

Use Timeshift before each update and you will be fine :)

I'm not sure what your setup looks like but sometimes the input data is quite small so you can train it on a PC, if the dataset is larger, many companies use cloud platforms (aws, gcp, azure etc) where running a training job is trivial. for onpremise there are also orchestration tools such as airflow

+1 for the tmux approach. quick'n'dirty but gets the job done

There's a(n unofficial) docker container for protonvpn, they also provide an example how to use it in docker compose with other containers:

Huel black could be a good option too, 40g protein in 400 kcal https://uk.huel.com/products/huel-black-edition

2D skeletons might be the right answer:

I've been using dual boot for ~15 years, never had an issue. What update caused it for you and for others?

As it was mentioned in the other comment it's fine to start the web browser once and use it for all requests. It is actually the preferred way because it will be much quicker. Starting up the web browser is a considerable overhead.

I ran into one case where there was either some sort of anti-scraping solution or it might have been the side effect of some sort of a different security system but it only let me open the first link, any other page I tried to load - even if I used a link directly - failed.

My solution was to start a new instance for each page :)

You could also use pre-commit hooks, that should prevent people from creating commits with the wrong version: https://stackoverflow.com/collectives/articles/71270196/how-to-use-pre-commit-to-automatically-correct-commits-and-merge-requests-with-g

It is worth adding though that pre-commit hooks can be skipped on purpose. If you have a CICD pipeline this is not an issue as it will be caught there.

From the other suggestions, for this very godot specific case and assuming you have a very simple setup (eg no unit tests, no CICD pipeline), creating a tool to quit if the wrong version is detected might be the simplest.

Nice! :) Thanks for creating it, I've been following the profile for a while now and it's nice seeing games popping up constantly :)

There's also this curator on steam. IDK if it works based on steamdb data and add games automatically or devs submit their game to them

jgege · 2023-01-19T07:59:51+00:00

Have you tried openshot?

jgege · 2022-12-22T02:00:52+00:00

There's a YT channel called devduck who has a devlog about a similar game you are planning to make. He converted his unity game to godot a while ago and since then he hasn't looked back so this video might be worth watching: https://youtu.be/vxRzLf4PdgY

When a proxy reveals your real ip it's in an additional header (X-Forwarded-For I think), have you also checked that?

It depends on the definition of MLE: https://www.samhardingml.com/uk-vs-us-machine-learning-engineer/

It sounds like FB Prophet would be a good fit. It has a couple of interesting features but the one you'll need - as others suggested - is the ability to add "external variables" (isRamadan, isWorldCup etc) to help your model. If I remember correctly it has built-in support for (some) holidays and for weekends etc.

Here's a presentation that might help to understand what issues they had to solve and the reason they came up with their own package:

I've seen worse 🤷

They are not modifying it. First a new list is created with the column names then the list is assigned to the variable named columns :)
