The classic TCP client/server interaction When a TCP client calls connect (2) , it usually gets assigned a port number from the ephemeral port range which is not used yet. The server, on the other hand, usually calls bind (2) to set the port that it will listen on.

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....

The internet as we know it is dead but simultaniously alive. The only real threat left to the internet is AI, ehrm, "AI." The Surface level internet is dying a horrible death. More and more people are begging to ditch phones and social media and the trash heaps at the center of the internet. they are unhealthy and can even be out right dangerous. Wouldn't this mean that the future of sites like this one should be pretty bright? It would be ..

Another suspiciously timed allergy flare up day today. The world continues to be very unhappy with my imperfections. Likely another tsunami on the way. Life goes on. Looking forward to another day. #

I tried to like Almond, but I didn’t at all. I think it’s perhaps because it was hard to empathise with a character who has no feelings…

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....

As a software engineer let's use a tool to discuss with business and get out from there like a boss would do.

I managed to get a very minimal example of the Github Actions social media auto-poster workflow working. It proves that in theory the necessary sequence is possible. The reason it’s tricky is because I am trying to run all the auto-poster jobs in a job matrix in order to parallelize them. I’ve almost run out of build minutes this month, so here’s a summary, so I can pick it up again next month. It’s not really intended for anyone in parti....

i have been working on this for 3 weeks, i posted about it couple weeks ago and the thread is removed already. Anyways the forum works server side fully, 0 % retarded bloated javascript. Its all written in go with sqlite and native net/http library. I have rating system and the rating currency "chads", the blackpill rating system, messages etc. I have to fix lots of soykaf and add some stuff and it will be ready i htnk by the end of the m..

Just as I manage to finally clear the decks this morning, and about to get back to finishing the rebuild of the Github Actions auto-poster, the internet connection disappears. Literally within a few seconds. Looks like the world is productivity min-ing again. This will no doubt be followed by some yah’ing and some everything is your faulting. Hard not to wonder whether reality should have a .cause property . At least my blog is a website..

Introduction In the rapidly evolving landscape of Artificial Intelligence, Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) has emerged as a pivotal technique for enhancing the factual accuracy and relevance of Large Language Models (LLMs). By enabling LLMs to retrieve information from external knowledge bases before generating responses, RAG mitigates common issues such as hallucination

Primordial thinking. - lainchan.org - 10 months ago - eng
I won’t be verbose, sentimental, circular, or emotionally cluttered. I’ll only lay down the core axis here. I’ll drop a single link — a "turning point". Leading to a place (obviously not spam or meaningless promotion). Whether you enter or not is up to you. Or more accurately — up to your essence, your cognitive limits, your biases, your beliefs. But if you still have the capacity to recognize these words — for what they are. Wi..

Improved RSS feeds - markjgsmith.com - 10 months ago - eng
I discovered that my RSS feeds were rendering the title inside the description. Titles should go in the title field! I know I know. How embarrassing. Honestly it’s some sort of miracle of miracles that I even have RSS feeds that work at all. When I wrote the static site generator, I figured out how to do serverside components using just regular javascript and ejs templates, and that was pretty cool. It occurred to me that I could use the ....


The foundations of memory access: static allocation, addressing modes, and the first steps toward low-level thinking.

Just pushed a pretty significant update to docker-harness. It was a tool I created originally to power some of my Docker containerized database tests. I pulled out the dependencies for each database to modularize it a bit. Each database module (MySQL, PostgreSQL, Redis, Memcached) now has its own go.mod and go.sum, which means you only pull in the dependencies for the databases you actually need. Also added some dependency updates, taking o..


Building an AI Agent in RavenDB is very much like defining a class, you define all the things that it can do, the initial prompt to the AI model, and you specify which parameters the agent requires. Like a class, you can create an instance of an AI agent by starting a new conversation with it. Each conversation is a separate instance of the agent, with different parameters, an initial user prompt, and its own history. Here is a simple exam....
