UPS Recommendations
  • SuperiorOne SuperiorOne Now 100%

    I have a APC Back-UPS 1600VA. It powers two desktop PC/Server, a monitor, and router. So far, it gets the job done.

    The biggest downside is; battery is not user replaceable, at least it's not straight forward like the other models. If possible, prefer a UPS with the easy battery replacement option.

  • This AI Startup "Copied" an Open-Source Project and Got Half a Million Dollar Funding by Y Combinator
  • SuperiorOne SuperiorOne Now 100%

    Road to success (2024 AI Hype Edition):

    1. Clone VSCode.
    2. Rename it as LSCode, squash all history, and create some random commits with --author="Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>".
    3. Add a character AI that calls your code garbage.
    4. Profit.

  • In Leaked Audio, Amazon Cloud CEO Says AI Will Soon Make Human Programmers a Thing of the Past
  • SuperiorOne SuperiorOne Now 100%

    'Soon' is a questionable claim from a CEO who sells AI services and GPU instances. A single faulty update caused worldwide down time recently. Now, imagine all infrastructure is written with today's LLMs - which are sometimes hallucinate so bad, they claim 'C' in CRC-32C stands for 'Cool'.

    I wish we could also add a "Do not hallucinate" prompt to some CEOs.

  • What is the worst IT setup you have seen at a company?
  • SuperiorOne SuperiorOne Now 100%

    I was a backend developer for a startup company where:

    • Windows servers without any firewall and security hardening.
    • Docker swarm without WSL. We had to use 4 GB Windows base images for 50MB web apps.
    • MSSQL without any replication and backups.
    • Redis installed on Windows via 3rd-party tool that looked like a 2010 era keygen generator.
    • A malware exploited the Redis * what a surprise * and kept killing processes to mine crypto on CPU...
    • VPS provider forgot to activate new Windows Server on production and it kept restart for every 30 minutes until I checked the logs and notified them about the missing license.

    I left there after 6 months.

  • What's holding you back from trying Codeberg?
  • SuperiorOne SuperiorOne Now 100%

    GitHub constantly becomes more bloated, clunky and privacy/license concerning AI BS. It almost feels like using 2010 TFS server with git flavor. Unfortunately, It has a huge user base and it's hard to incentivize people to use other platforms.

    It's easier for well-established projects to host their own git infrastructure. But for new projects and solo developer, it harder to get interaction on other platforms. I think that's why even Gitea team uses GitHub as a main location for development. Similarly, I still mirror my public repositories to GitHub for the same reasons even though I prefer using my own Gitea server.

  • nut_webgui v0.3.1, Light-weight NUT web GUI
  • SuperiorOne SuperiorOne Now 100%

    Biggest difference is being able to execute INSTCMD commands, at least that was the main reason why I developed my own tool. Another less important differences are: older ARM support and since it's written in Rust, it's much more efficient in terms of resource usage. TBH, being that efficient only makes sense for very low-power devices.

    Besides that, I don't think you can go wrong with either project.

    Jiatan probably is in shambles right now. Poor guy spends years to infiltrate in a project and got caught. Meanwhile CrowdStrike took whole infrastructure down with a single update.

    I want to share a self-hosted tool I developed. It's a NUT monitoring tool similar to webNUT but it has some additional features like: - UPS command support to remotely tell your UPS beeper to shut up. - Supports some uncommon and old devices like ARMv6, ARMv7 and RISC-V64. - It's actually light-weight, ~7MiB image size and very low memory footprint. If anyone looking a tool like this, repo is available at https://github.com/SuperioOne/nut_webgui

    If I'm recall correct, Sugo 13 only has single 3.5 slot. I'd say look for Sugo 14 (2x3.5) or Node 304 (6x3.5)

    Make sure all of your components fits to the planned case including power supply.

  • What's your approach to databases?
  • SuperiorOne SuperiorOne Now 100%

    My first plan was managing DB cluster outside of k3s and adding it as an external service. But then I tried cloudnative-pg and it's pretty easy to create replicated PostgreSQL cluster. Best part for me, it can backup cluster and WAL files to S3 storage (self-hosted Minio instance in my case).

    Art is good but some 3D/2D mixed animation choices are questionable, especially the first two minutes... but for the first episode, overall vibe is similar to manga and I enjoyed it.
