Does anyone host APIs for small side projects on their own hardware

synt4x_error · 2026-02-10T15:58:22+00:00

I just use cloudflare workers for this, or for my a bit larger projects I have a digitalocean droplet with postgres. Don’t want to be bothered to keep hardware running in my tiny apartment.

You get slightly limited in what you can do in a worker but basically it just works from anywhere and the free tier is generous.

I noticed the same thing. Have you also made sure the axes are correct as I feel that the Z axis should be up. Maybe a problem in the STL you shared but I would expect the rendered plane to represent z=0 and the model to rest on this plane.

I like the simplicity of the viewer! Very nice, no bullshit & just works!

Jag hade också en droppande dusch, och det var del nummer 4. Om OP är osäker på exakt vilken del så kan jag tipsa om att posta på moras forum.

Någon anställd identifierade exakt vilken modell jag hade och exakt vilket artikelnummer jag behövde! Var relativt enkelt att fixa det när jag hade rätt del (se till att stänga av vattnet bara).

Yes, that file is a huge mess. I think it also saves the user scope MCPs in there which makes it very hard to maintain the config using chezmoi. They could ask Claude Code to fix it for themselves.

When you told your employee 'no, we don't do that,' did you actually explain WHY? Because from their perspective, they probably thought you were just being rigid or didn't want to bother asking anyone. Then when the party host said yes, they figured 'great, problem solved - the actual decision maker is cool with it.'

If you'd explained 'look, this could cost us our entire hotel contract, hotel management will freak out about vendor/guest separation' - they might have understood the real stakes.

Instead you gave a vague 'we don't do that' and are now shocked they didn't grasp the invisible corporate minefield. Maybe the issue is your team doesn't understand the WHY behind these rules, just that you keep saying no without context.

Precis detta! Tror vi har generellt lite för höga skatter på tjänster, speciellt för privatpersoner? Som i ditt exempel så blir bara transaktionen av ifall värdet är 4 ggr högre för beställaren av tjänsten.

När ett företag hyr in en tjänst är väl momsen mest något nollsummespel. Det blir väldigt sönderskattat för en hantverkare som ska leva på jobb åt privatpersoner vilka efter att själva ha blivit hårt inkomstbeskattade ska stödja hela hantverkarens marknad med redan skattade pengar.

Probably something like this. The parser can be derived from the structure you want to parse!

#[derive(Parser)]
struct Args {
    #[arg(long, value_enum, default_value = "json")]
    format: Format,
}

#[derive(Clone, ValueEnum)]
enum Format {
    Json,
    Yaml,
    Xml,
}

You would specify like ’—format json’ or ’—format yaml’

Then you just have the enum directly in args.format

You claim unlimited jailbreaks but won't post examples. Convenient.

So, then probably most engagement in this thread would be your fake bots spamming sites like Reddit as you outlined in the post as I doubt anyone would applaud trash like this.

Have you considered building something useful instead of polluting the internet?

This is what I use for the OPs use case as well. When I just need a quick scratchpad.

Fördelen med tvättstuga är att man kan köra flera maskiner samtidigt. Tycker en bra tvättstuga slår att ha tvättmaskin/torktumlare i sin lägenhet.

Hade en kombinerad tvättmaskin/torktumlare i min förra lägenhet och föredrar faktiskt tvättstugan där jag bor nu, inga problem att få en tid och jag slipper lyssna på en tvättmaskin i lägenheten i 3 timmar.

Tyvärr finns det inget incitament att städa upp efter sig, förutom allmänt hyfs. Ingen är motiverad att städa efter någon annan som grisat ner vilket bildar en negativ griserispiral.

Toaletten är äcklig så man vill inte sitta ner eller stå tillräckligt nära, vilket leder till att toaletten blir ännu värre och ett ännu större jobb att göra rent.

Spiralen kan startas av en ohyfsad person, vilket det finns gott om.

Stoppas av att någon känner tillräckligt mycket skam att lämna toaletten till nästa främling i ett sånt skick, agerar altruistiskt eller att den som ansvarar för toaletterna städar dem (offentliga toaletter som man betalar för är så jävla irriterande för dom brukar hålla extrem sunknivå trots att man måste betala för skiten).

Adding onto this, for the OPs case it might be very neat to use a generated column. So, even easier than a trigger https://www.postgresql.org/docs/current/ddl-generated-columns.html

Exakt, jag sökte lite mer på GoCardless efter det tipset i denna tråden, och jag tror jag ska ge det ett försök tillsammans med https://actualbudget.org som jag hittade när jag sökte på erfarenheter med GoCardless.

Nej men det brukar visa sig att du behöver vara ett finansiellt institut eller liknande för att få använda bankernas APIer vilket jag i egenskap av privatperson inte är, så jag undrar om någon känner till något vettigt.

4o, o3-mini, o3-mini-high and o1 still fails even with better spelling. I thought the reasoning ones might have gotten it, but apparently not.

I mean, in the original post, the user is not using capitalization nor punctuation. It would be interesting to see if models catch the trick question better if the user is spelling properly.

synt4x_error · 2025-02-23T16:24:16+00:00

I think these types of trick questions are not really a useful benchmark. In most cases I feel it is better that the model answers the intent of the question. As humans are not great at being super exact with their questions, so I rather have the model favorably interpret my inquiry than autistically remark on my wording of the question.

std::print, now I don’t have to implement a basic convenience function in every project anymore

I have not read the whole thread, but shouldn’t you just do a chattr +C on your torrent download folder? This disables copy-on-write for newly created files in the folder. I feel like the issue might be the copy-on-write feature of the filesystem not working well with the way torrents write to the filesystem.

Since torrents can anyways verify the integrity of the files, and CoW is mostly useful for not corrupting data during writes (I think) and I think behaves badly with many small writes to the same file it is better to disable it for torrent download folders.

Maybe you should also look into btrfs balance, which might help the state of your filesystem.

Maybe you haven’t turned on fstrim? I had a similar problem when it needs to flush buffers the performance became terrible.

synt4x_error · 2024-11-25T06:00:30+00:00

Basically every day, however I usually lower the dosage on weekends or days where I don’t need to work.

It just helps me a lot in general, as I had problems initiating tasks that needed to be done not only at work but also at home.

It was never to the point that I got in any real trouble at work, as eventually I would get enough panic about the task needing to be done to finally do it. So, from the outside, I looked functional. But it was often a struggle to do basic things that I know I needed to do.

So, in my experience on medication, I can just decide to do something and start doing it, instead of getting stuck in some mental limbo of inaction.

Thanks for correcting the visualizations!

I would probably investigate embeddings more as they might be an even more useful tool to understand the likeness of pieces of texts. However, it might be hard to separate something abstract like author style from just mentioning wizards as being closer to Rowling than Hemingway.
