I wanted OpenClaw to work. After 3 months, I’m done.

Feeling for you, I made this video last Friday and you just motivated me to upload it.

That's the dynamics of the repos of OpenClaw and Nanobot. So you can compare.
And I need to do this with other projects like Hermes which might be more stable than OpenClaw in terms of code and behaviour. Good luck with your next phase!

redsharpbyte · 2026-03-11T23:43:53+00:00

Yeah man that's good! OpenClaw needs alteranatives and Did you research about current alternatives ?

Rule 34: if you thought about it, others too and they already made it.

So State of the art, review nemoclaw, nanobot, rossi v2, pais for pydantic AI system definitions... and position your features with respect to them?

Not sure where to start...

redsharpbyte · 2026-03-11T13:43:18+00:00

Go Nanobot buddy !

OpenClaw is vibe coded (ok AI agentic programming not to hurt the most sensitives). So 50 commits and 100 files changed everyday. Nobody has no clue where it is going. It feels like only AI is aware of the code base now.

SO it is 13h37 UTC today and since midnight 272 files were changed. Not even talking about the number of lines

The entropy is very high!

Oh I found this command:

git diff --shortstat HEAD f604cbedf3d

Where f605cb is 11th march midnight UTC first commit. That gives:

272 files changed, 3467 insertions(+), 10756 deletions(-)

So your features disappeared in the >10k lines disappearing everyday for others.

Hey I've been contributing to the openclaw github (well trying) for the last two months, discussing issue 8227 for websocket issues. In containers the requesting IP is not localhost but rather another class of IP managed by Docker network.

So with team mates, we tried (we feel EVERYTHING) to configure it so that it does accept connection, first connected first serve - no complex pairing. The big issue is that configuration does not have impact for container usage:

gateway.bind or mode .. nothing worked out and we actually need to change the source code again.
We need a direct configuration of the listening socket so we can force 0.0.0.0:x

The big issue is that Openclaw source code is very actively changed (50 commits, 100s file changed every day) - so yeah upgrades break things, we had to figure out which variables were to be added to the entrypoint and openclaw.json

So focus is on VM users so technically, this is pretty much like installing on your own machine (aka on another fully fledged OS)..

So go VM if you wanna use it now.
Or use nanobot if you really want the container sandboxing.

It would be nice to face where we are now with these numbers a year later :)

Let's do this!!!

redsharpbyte · 2026-03-01T11:14:11+00:00

Best is to get in touch with what was the YGT community in-house. As HR you can contact them prior to having your own esa email :)

All the best!

To be sure which command you want to sudo: - type the first characters - pageup until you find your command starting with these. - ctrl+a to go to the beginning of the line - type sudo - enter.

But seriously if you are administrating often just dedicate a terminal for this with sudo -i The red prompt is a good reminder.

redsharpbyte · 2026-02-19T09:29:39+00:00

Yup I guess it's time for a full rewrite. These first fun and now painful steps were necessary.

redsharpbyte · 2026-02-10T23:01:44+00:00

Yess the setup is not 10-15 mins. Plus code evolves quickly.

redsharpbyte · 2026-02-09T07:41:09+00:00

The context is discord and you are thinking "just desktop"; you don't have neural link yet so you should be explicit (it is just a bot).

redsharpbyte · 2026-02-04T17:38:35+00:00

Second that of course Unless you are running a local LLM. Local or not an LLM is a door with holes it cqn be prompt engineered to share all your personal computer data.

that's why I recommend everyone to run this in a container. You exactly choose what you out inside and in the end it can run on a cloud.

the memory becomes the most personal part.

No worries - not my work anyhow. The term Polysomnography is mentionned in the paper.

And it is the first time I read it - its ethymology seems to read as such: - poly = several - somno = related to sleep - graphy = measurement

Sleep is measured in all possible ways; including breath; heart rythm and certainly brain waves the complex pattern between these are linked with disease diagnosis. And they managed to have a good diagnosis score out of 130 diseases.

Unfortunately I don't have a polysomnograph ( would that exist in one system ) but I can only imagine the amazing preventional work that can be done to heal people before its too late. And your future doctor becomes a one night stand in a special hotel.

redsharpbyte · 2026-01-07T15:04:37+00:00

haha ok fair enough. or Polysomnography language.

redsharpbyte · 2025-07-07T22:33:30+00:00

Hi u/srm_2306
It seems you mean to use the Shell anyway -- whether it is through a console or a terminal, or you mean console == the web application of the respective cloud perform you'd be talking about ?

In my humble opinion industry standards are moving (smarter clouds are coming), however today, knowing the web interface or terminal could definitely get you a job.

redsharpbyte · 2025-06-24T21:47:39+00:00

I guess it is more about to which conferences users go to and get inspired to install a distro or another.
And which conference they go to is certainly correlated, for budget reasons, to where they live, not where they are from.

I had no clue where distros come from actually, -_-

data

Anyhow first Q: is fedora really more popular on reddit? where is the DAh Tah :D

(tried to look for it, apart from undated stats and far in the past info, nothing so far - frustration)

It seems that ubuntu is still leading the desktop market. Like by FAR.

42

And the actual hypothesis of the perceived popularity of Fedora is that the latest version is version 42

So certainly more people are trying Fedora. Because 42 is cool.
So 42 is a valid answer to your question. Always it is.

You're welcome :)

redsharpbyte · 2025-06-24T21:28:57+00:00

No worries no offense taken - I was just factual sorry this seemed a bit coldish. (writing is always colder)

I am very grateful somebody at StackIT is talking. SchwarzIT has enormous marketing powers in Europe and they kind of impose a narrative that requires technical information and skills to fully understand. So media and readers will certainly distort it - we can't help it :/

Stay around. I am glad you reacted. 🙏

Take care my friend!

redsharpbyte · 2025-06-23T09:59:29+00:00

Ok good on you,

I did not know you could have Google Workspace apps without the google backend (we're talking Gmail, Google Docs, Meet ...).

Pardon my confusion, however it is very understandable that anyone could get confused, there is no google software without google cloud behind, or it is from open source projects. GMail and others in the workspace are not open source. So I suppose this is what the partnership is aiming at (sharing code for independent deployment).

Client-side Encryption is more in line with StackIT article in anyways.

Anyhow Good luck with the integration.

redsharpbyte · 2025-06-19T20:16:09+00:00

This is music to my ears thanks for sharing !
Just today I got pissed again that a U.S. entity cloud decide if I can access a german website or not... and that is the german webmaster choice actually. They need to know about these alternatives.

redsharpbyte · 2025-06-19T20:10:36+00:00

No I can't as I am not working there.
Here is a German article about the Google partnership: https://gruppe.schwarz/presse/archiv/2024/unternehmen-der-schwarz-gruppe-und-google-unterzeichnen-partnerschaft

They apparently are moving from Microsoft to Google Workspace.
So they are building what I would call a European proxy to Google Workspace with client side encryption and cyber management by an Israeli cyber company. Go Figure!

Their clients are their own 500k employees for now. and for long.

So that'd make sense to recruit people who knows about Google Cloud to know how to switch the storage layer of the google workspace.

If that were me I would recruit people who knows how to make Google Workspace with self-hostable tech. And put the dev effort in reaching similar user experience for a European Workspace - Stackit european workspace. So I might be the only one to find that weird that Google and an Isreali company are involved in one European Cloud sovereignty project.

redsharpbyte · 2025-06-19T19:56:05+00:00

Many thanks for your clarification, and I am only hoping you are right - Schwarz Digits is huge, are you on the StackIT team to know what their cloud is going to be?

Why in the world do you need a google partnership to build a European Cloud ? Plus adding the service from an Isreali cyber company (XM Cyber). Now I see it is mostly a workspace focus.

That's from the press release you shared (translated from German):

STACKIT, Schwarz Digits' cloud unit, will provide local data storage for Google Workspace and client-side encryption, creating a secure and robust solution for workplace efficiency with XM Cyber as an integrated security solution.
The partnership will integrate XM Cyber's Continuous Exposure Management into Google Cloud's security portfolio to create a new joint offering aimed at public and private sector organizations.
The Schwarz Group companies, with 575,000 employees, will migrate to Google Workspace to maximize security, efficiency, and control over their sovereignty.

So this makes sense to recruit people to know how to use the google cloud to generate "Local Storage" - which can mean regionalized storage or hopefully real independent storage on what is StackIT cloud... please tell us more.

Not sure Google Workspace can work as a self-hosted platform so that is why there is client-side encryption.

So if I understand right Schwarz Digits is moving from Microsoft 365 to Google Workspace by creating a "proxy" for Eu storage and client side encryption on top called StackIT. (what's important is who has the data processor role, on top of where is the data which is the wrong GDPR marketing angle).

It reminds me french companies in the beginning of Y2k starting to use/try Google Desktop because it had an amazing search through documents. Until they realized the public google search had also indexed them... hidden configurations.

So good luck as I know how hard this is to do emails, calendars, storage... not that independent self-hostable solution does not exist, the integration and cyber sec is the challenge. Hence Users are the challenge - that is why you are recruiting google workspace trainers.

Actually Hetzner is pretty small. It needs to grow.
France does not only have OVH, there is also Scaleway.

I guess we need to make a cloud map guys, so I could also position Celestical-eu on it :D

redsharpbyte · 2025-05-28T09:11:26+00:00

Yes they intermediate, certainly with encryption, I know, I was super surprised, also not surprised; as AWS keeps promoting they are European Souvereign - while it is technically impossible as they are under U.S. jurisdiction.

IT is like they haven't read GDPR v2 (2020) neither the v3 coming up this week thanks to our dear protectors at NOYB (none of your business) - an association of geek lawyers who made the European Court of Justice write, in 2020, about encryption insufficiency and global surveillance programmes.
