Notably codeberg is not a corporate owned like github/gitlab, and you can become a voting member of the nonprofit through donations. Pretty neat imo. I made an account there last year but just got around to creating a repo there for a smaller project. It was straightforward and familiar.
One thing that’s holding me back though is the CI is in closed testing but you can request access.
Yes. If you’re using lets encrypt then note that they do not support wildcard certs with the HTTP-01 challenge type. You will need to use the DNS-01 challenge type. To utilize it you would need a domain registrar that supports api dns updates like cloudflare and then you can use the acme.sh package. Here is an example guide i found.
Note that you could still request multiple explicit subdomains in the same issue/renew commands so it’s not a huge deal either way but the wildcard will be more seamless in the future if you don’t know what other services you might want to selfhost.
Agreed, though i do think it’s a privacy thing. Many people use privacy and anonymity interchangeably but they are different things.
The options are:
I did the catchall for a few years but have been doing aliases for 5+ now. In the end, the only people/ companies who have my email are the ones I want.
Even has kitty timestamps further down 😻
I do all my coding in the cloud, via Google docs 😎
Just some general advice:
The lede sure was buried here. I do think it could’ve been a lot more clear about the specific issues with open source licenses and also been more clear about which of those issues a Post Open license is being proposed to solve.
It was also strange to propose there would be only one Post Open license but then immediately talk about the one of the debates of which direction Open source licenses should go. The article didn’t reconcile how that and other issues would be able to be solved in one license.
I recognize that there are flaws with current Open source licenses but this article is proposing to solve 100 licenses with 1 license, without any substance on how it actually would achieve this. I guess I’m not optimistic there will only be 1 future license.
So you dislike external sync options but also don’t want to pay for internal sync options? Additionally you are in a self hosted community so you’re looking for a presumably open source project (some you listed are not), and given internally supported sync services would be one way fund development i think this narrows what your are looking for by quite a bit. You basically would be looking for an open source project that meets all your other criteria and happens to let you sync the files to your own server for free. Why would such a project not just let you take things into your own hands with whatever flavor of sync/backup you prefer? Otherwise if they’re building a sync system it would probably be a monetized cloud service which brings us back to the beginning.
Maybe such a thing exists, but I haven’t seen such a thing since that is extra development for little to no gain. Most people are happy to either pay for the cloud service to fund development or sync on their own.
Logseq: Same issues as with obsidian: Paid sync. Didnt look much beyond
Logseq is open source. Obsidian is not. So yes, both have paid sync but you can also just sync or backup the files on your own. Just be careful of sync services that sync while files/db are in use to avoid conflicts.
This is how i initially got started and i always like to recommend it. CS50x (introduction to computer science) is their college curriculum made available for free as opencourseware. Their lectures are very engaging imo, and you get problemsets to practice and check your answers. The problems are done in an online environment which i like so you don’t get bogged down in setting up your computer before you’ve even learned how to code. And then at the end you pick a project of your own and when you finish you get a free certificate (don’t bother paying for the “verified” one)
One other thing i think cs50 does pretty well is help teach you how to solve problems and how to read documentation. The reality is that learning how to code isn’t just learning a coding language. Knowing how to solve different types of problems and how to read documentation are core skills that let you get away from “tutorial hell” and start working on a project that excites you.
I deleted my 12 year old account over the latest privacy policy update which auto opted-in to using your data for unspecified AI purposes. There was some discussion here, and while a strava rep did give specific examples in their response, the privacy policy was not updated and continues to be both broad and auto opted-in with no way to opt out.
Regardless of the current use of AI, the broad privacy policy creates the potential to allow them to do many things with your data without telling you about it in the future. And that thread discusses some potential problematic uses that you could be opted into without ever knowing it.
The privacy policy needs to be more specific, and allow opting out (or better yet, make opt out the default).
And yeah, API change is pretty crap too.
Second the Automate The Boring Stuff recommendation, especially if you’re looking for a physical gift (or free online as mentioned)
Id also just in general recommend CS50-python as a free course for python. Engaging lectures, problem sets you can check your solutions, and you finish with a project of your own choosing. No programming background is needed. Don’t buy a verified certificate, the whole course is free along with a free certificate
I live my life and i come across something that is painful because it takes time, or is complicated/tedious, etc, and i think to myself “is there anything i can do to make this better?”
Look for problems you have and try to solve them. Also as you learn more about programming you add tools to your toolbox. Having those tools helps you think about new problems you could solve. You might still have to look up the documentation on how to use that tool, but you can at least start to recognize that it could be used to solve a problem you’re having
Thanks, yeah looks like they are wanting to build on their own reader app.
Everyone has a hobby 🙃
So are they somehow able to relicense by buying off the contributors? Or does Eleven Labs intend to host/use something under AGPLv3? Just trying to figure out what their plan is and how they’re dealing with it being open source
Right, the other thing i considered is that you could just create a company and “buy” the data from them for a ridiculous amount of money and then you have less requirement to detail the data. Similarly you could deem the data unsharable and fudge the provenance.
Like locks, it will only keep honest people honest.
the actual license text part being questioned .
Data Information: Sufficiently detailed information about the data used to train the system so that a skilled person can build a substantially equivalent system. Data Information shall be made available under OSI-approved terms.
In particular, this must include: (1) the complete description of all data used for training, including (if used) of unshareable data, disclosing the provenance of the data, its scope and characteristics, how the data was obtained and selected, the labeling procedures, and data processing and filtering methodologies; (2) a listing of all publicly available training data and where to obtain it; and (3) a listing of all training data obtainable from third parties and where to obtain it, including for fee.
(The rest of the license goes on to talk about weights, etc).
I agree with you somewhat. I’m glad that each source does need to be listed and described. I’m less thrilled to see “unshareable” data and data that cost $ in there since i think these have potential to effectively make a model not able to be retrained by a “skilled person”.
It’s a cheap way to make an AI license without making all the training data open source (and dodging the legalities of that).
+1 for gitlab. You can programmatically generate a csv file that can be used to generate issue(s) which support markdown format. Then your checklists could be issues and marked as completed when done.
You could also for instance set up a weekly pipeline schedule to generate issue(s) from the csv if some of the issues are needed on an interval.
If gitlab isn’t an option then id still look into generating the .md files this way and finding a home for the .md files that works for your user(s)
Appreciate it, i wasn’t familiar with the project and didn’t see that!
Edit: i see now they’re talking about private IP, but in case you want to learn about getting a static IP for other things…
Many ISPs will give you a dynamic (changing) IP rather than a static (unchanging) IP. Just check your IP once a week for a few weeks to see if it changes.
There are some services that get around this by checking your ip regularly and updating their records automatically. This is called a dynamic DNS provider (DDNS). I used to use “noip” but since then there are quite a few like cloudflare DDNS.
Beyond that you just would want to make sure your router or whatever device is assigning IPs on your network to give a static assignment to the server. Assigning IPs is handled by a DHCP server and it would usually be your router, but if you have a pihole you might be using that as a DHCP server instead.
Between DDNS and DHCP you can make sure both your external IP and internal IP are static.
