Doing the Lord’s work in the Devil’s basement
Supabase unironically do exactly that. You’ve got your client, you login through OAuth, then use your JWT to connect directly to postgres.
Your JWT contains your user id, which is used with row level security rules to determine which rows you can and cannot access. It’s pretty amazing what you can do with PG alone. The tooling is not quite there yet but that’s probably where we’re headed.
I honestly wouldn’t recommend it if you don’t have a minimum of security knowledge. The moment your home server pops up with a domain name it will get scanned by shady actors and possibly exploited.
I use exclusively sshfs, including in my lan, is there some downside to it?
Caveat : some individual users may block you for not sharing or never being online, however the network itself won’t ban you.
Back when I lived in Mexico there was this restaurant (I think the name was califa or something) who made “costra”. Basically they took the meat they’d normally put in a taco, but mixed it with a lot of cheese and grilled that on the comal until it developed a crust (costra in Spanish). It was so fucking good 🤌
If you have a few dollars to spare you might try on real debrid. If someone has once downloaded it on their service, it may still be in their cache. I’ve resurrected quite a few vintage torrents with this technique.
They’ll also deeply resent the man who tries to step in his shoes
I don’t know about the other languages but most widely used JavaScript packages also have corporate backing
There’s some decent money to be made in null shipping. For one thing, fuel costs are very low.
It’s very rare that the backend language significantly affects performance. In 99% of apps you could have the most optimized backend written directly in machine language, and you’d just shave off milliseconds.
That’s because in web development most of the latency comes from i/o (network requests, database access, file access), not from computation being slow.
Same experience here, performance is mediocre at best on an established code base. Recall tends to drop sharply as the context expands leading to a lot of errors.
I’ve found coding agents to be great at bootstrapping projects on popular stacks, but once you reach a certain size it’s better to either make it work on isolated files, or code manually and rely on the auto complete.
As long as you don’t share anything you should be okay! It’s not very ethical tough… But you can share your files list with users you trust (for example people you have already downloaded from).
At any rate i never heard of anyone getting in trouble for using soulseek.
I’m more of a slskd kind of guy, even if the webapp is pretty terrible
A hundred times soulseek, all the music nerds are there!
Yeah it’s pretty shit. My guess is torrent sites lost a ton of traffic from API users (stremio, kodi etc…) so they have to squeeze harder on those remaining page views.
There is a trick! You first need to left click the magnet link, this will bring a modal vpn ad with (iirc) a “continue without vpn” button. That button is the actual magnet link
Talk about putting all our eggs in the same basket smh
Yeah integrating APIs has really become trivial with copilots. You just copy paste the documentation and all the boring stuff is done in the blink of an eye ! I love it
Java is actually twice faster cause the name is twice shorter
I don’t know about other STTs but if you’re using whisper you can “prompt” it for consistent spelling. If you put “todo” in the prompt it should always spell it like that.
Have you tried using a vector DB with an embedder ? It may give decent performance without the need for a full blown LLM
