I haven't written a blog post in a long time. It's been a tough year. Mostly from a health perspective. One of the highlights was when I cracked four ribs from coughing (yes, the doctors were just as shocked as you are). Before that, I used

I’ve been using 5G Home Internet for well over a year now, and honestly, I love it. For my lifestyle and day-to-day Internet habits, it has hit the sweet spot between performance, convenience, and simplicity. If you’ve ever wondered whether 5G Internet is a realistic alternative to cable or fibre for your home, I’m going to share the details and my experience in this blog post.

Running apt upgrade on hosts with rootless Docker services can break them. A version mismatch occurs between the running user daemon and the newly upgraded system binaries, causing containers to fail on restart. This post provides an ansible playbook that detects critical package changes and automatically restarts only the necessary rootless user daemons, preventing downtime and manual intervention.

The alergy attack appears to have past, took almost the entire day. It can be completely debilitating when it happens. Very hard to concentrate on anything. It's sort of difficult to describe, not entirely disimilar to how it would feel to have stinging nettles rubbed all over your face, and right into your eyes. Sometimes I describe it as being punched in the face. It really drains your life energy. Roll on tomorrow :) #

Okay, maybe this only news to me, but still, sharing my experience. So I've been renting a VPS for quite some time. There wasn't much going on there, so I decided why not run a Tor relay and use some of those free resources. Ofc I decided against making it an Exit node due to legal concerns, so it's just a basic relay. It's been running butter smooth for a month or two as a Middle, and at some point network decided that my relay is very goo....

When using an AI model, one of the things that you need to pay attention to is the number of tokens you send to the model. They literally cost you money, so you have to balance the amount of data you send to the model against how much of it is relevant to what you want it to do. That is especially important when you are building generic agents, which may be assigned a bunch of different tasks. The classic example is the human resourc....
