No problem.

The other thing with AI stuff is it conveys very little trust. It’s easy-come easy-go, so it’s hard to tell how much maintenance the owner will has put in or will put into the project.

Scheduling is high risk, so it’s important that it feels safe

I hope this doesn’t come off as too harsh, but the text reads as very AI generated, and I think if you rewrote the main text you could do a much better job.

It’s not clear to me why to use it, the pitch today is that it makes failures loud, which is nice, but very poorly described.

The tool itself looks good, but the website looks very “Claude”, especially the text at the top saying “ONE BINARY · LINUX · MACOS · WSL · 25 MB RAM IDLE”

Those are great pros, but are they the guest thing the user should see?

Honestly the first paragraph of the quick start is a much better pitch:

RunWisp is one small Go binary. You list the shell commands you want to run in a runwisp.toml, and RunWisp takes care of the rest — firing jobs on cron, restarting services when they crash, and capturing every line of stdout and stderr so you can go back and look at what happened. There’s a TUI in your terminal and a Web UI in your browser for poking around. No external database, no agent, no sidecar

This tool looks decent, but for me I find nix helps manage the complexity of systemd well

Gemini does the same style, I think mistral as well.

Oh, isn’t bitter that site curating a list of content for building AI models? I seem to recall that and hope it works except then from any laws, right?

This is why they restrict Mythos and similar.

They want the vulnerability machine, and they don’t want you to have it.

~100gb with images and the max image.

Asides from my kiwix clone of Wikipedia, in the apocalypse there’s not much value to most of the things I self host.

I self host backups, code forge, some AI tools (all my AI chat and completion are local now).

But realistically, in an apocalypse situation I’m going to leave my suburban home and migrate somewhere safer and more directly connected to food+shelter, and probably spend my days dealing with trying to survive.

My self hosting is primarily designed around avoiding US based tools and systems, so that I have more control over privacy and don’t find policy I disagree with.

I feel like that well describes a border collie.

Wants to do stuff, but if you don’t attend they’ll find stuff to do.

10w idle, 100-130W max CPU and GPU.

This might be the stupidest comment on this whole website.

There’s no reason to release a well placed em dash. They’re a standard grammatical symbol (with built in keyboard support on macOS).

Hurray! Compressing and not using it, so you have a massive increase in disk use for no fucking reason.

Oh, and every container that uses PyTorch needs to download the full 7 gigabytes instead of sharing.

Man, why did they buy Tenor just to kill it?

What the fuck.

I love that Claude.md file, fucking awesome.

AI is great, I use it to get started quickly, and then I delete a bunch of it and replace it with human approved and purposeful code.

The other day I used it to write a slugify method. I didn’t think I needed a full library imported for that, and with AI that was a 30 second task, including tests. Great.

Then later that day the AI wrote an API for me. The AI design hid potentially async code in a synchronous block and it butchered the control flow, so I rewrote it to give the caller control over how the code was executed. The result is exactly what I needed, and easy to use plus maintain. Also great.

The difference between that and slop where I never even review the file is massive! I like your power tool analogy. Yeah, I could use the spokeshave… or I could just use a router. But if you’re building a jig to turn your table saw into a jointer you might wanna take a step back and ask what you’re really doing here.

For posterity because I didn’t explain why/how it’s sketchy:

• they just found a hardcoded key that skips all security that was in the wild for like two years
• significant vibe coding means nobody actually understands the codebase. Hence not finding the backdoor key
• some of the documentation is only in Chinese, which isn’t sketchy in itself, but given the backdoor key does seem fucking sketchy.
• they have an X link you cannot remove from the admin console
• the admin console has minor but stupid bugs: you can’t go from a bucket to the list of buckets, auth is janky, etc.

Just because it’s good a good name doesn’t make it good pedigree (which is a bone I have with rustXYZ named projects). The fact nobody caught serious backdoors for years is damning.

If you’re running this offline, it might be fine for you. I still run it inside my vpn behind auth but I’m looking to move off.

Rustfs is sketchy as fuck though.

Where they lose comparability they have a good explanation too

Yes, it’s helpful

That’s fair, I won’t pretend pypi/pip and running uvx is much safer than npx.

But why hasn’t JavaScript established a defacto stdlib to replace ask the left pads and is even type packages?

I’ve taken a near zero dependency policy on my personal projects regardless, and now I run most code in containers to sandbox it.

I think npm allows installation scripts which do make this worse, as a package can run arbitrary command at install time.
