> Going with sqlite might not have been the best decision

Many have tried out this general idea. I myself evaluated git-bug for a few days in 2018 when it was a novel idea, but I ran into issues I tried to raise in my previous comment.

The data format you chose is not even the main issue here.

Binary data that keeps changing is generally always unfit for source control.

In your use case, you can solve that by committing sql dumps of the database in a text format.

The problem with keeping a issue tracker decentralized in your git checkout is that it doesnt scale.

You’d need to commit and push, and everybody else working on the project need to pull in your commits in order to see the changes.

This makes working with feature branches break immediately, and it makes cooperation really hard in all kinds of ways.

It can work, as long as you dont use branches and as long as you are solo, I guess.

The project readme suggests it would be a good fit for small teams. I beg to differ.

No, because they did not. Title is correct, it was a job not a tribe

> But how do they bypass the paywall?

I’m guessing by using a residential botnet and using existing credentials by unknowingly ”victims” by automating their browsers.

> Otherwise, the saved page would contain information about the logged-in user.

If you read this article, theres plenty of evidence they are manipulating the scraped data.

But I’m just speculating here…

They are able to scrape paywalled sites at random, so im guessing a residential botnet is used.

Last week, I asked Gemini to give me episode names and air dates for a tv show, and it proceeded to fabricate two seasons worth of titles, not a single name or air date was correct. The episode names was even listed on (swedish) wikipedia, so it should been in their training data.

The server is not usually a remote machine. The server is the app accepting remote connections.

This has been true for decades.

Thats not a theory. Its the plot of a netflix entertainment show by famous sharlatan journalist (not a scientist, not an archeolog) Graham Hancock.

I just read that, too. Its interesting and somewhat depressing that the best option for the last 10+ years according to ars and this linked reddit thead, and comments in this thread all suggesting Apple TV. I hope to see a viable foss option soon.
