I can vouch for Garage too. It was a lot simpler imo than minio and works great over a handful of servers in different DCs.

I don't know if I would call myself a vibe coder, but I definitely feel shame about putting any llm-generated code online unless I've reviewed it to the point of it being what I would've have written on my own anyway.

So lots of personal one-off tools/dashbooards that I never would have made before will probably live forever on my personal git server instead of github or somewhere.

It's _almost_ the same length if you count the period on "N/A." but not on "None."

claude can pretty easily generate pdfs and give those to the user to download, skipping the step of needing a source first.

That's a worse workflow imo than having a source w/ version history, but I don't think it's uncommon.

what do you mean by losing terminal real estate?

If you mean the navbar/where it shows the tabs/windows/whatever, doesn't ghostty also have a tab bar?

With screen/tmux (and I assume zellij), you can hide the tab bar completely if you want.

I'd like to see a consumer version too, I don't need a whole rack of them. I probably can't even afford one gpu-sized one

I assume it's talking about syncing/migrating from github -> origin? And not that github is hte actual upstream of origin? That would be great though

Indeed. I have several domains using cf for dns only and they don't/can't inject anything into those sites.

what does signing up get you? Since it seemed to work without an account and OPs workaround?

My assumption is that people who want multi-user code editors are the same people who are forced to work in a place that requires heavy pair programming.

I could see it being useful if you're helping someone debug something, but chances are it's easier just to screenshare.

To subscribe to your rss feed, of course.

\s but it made me subscribe, it's hard finding ai-related content that isn't llm-generated and also isn't crazy people.

What else is part of your rotating stacks? Asking as someone who melatonin doesn't seem to help much

johntash — Sun, 09 Aug 2026 01:52:25 +0000

Without reading the article, the original title made me think it was going to be related to voip or telephony somehow. Not using a phone as a server.

yeah, it seems confusing that people expected public share links to.. not be public?

What's the measure of code quality in this case?

Have you noticed any issues/differences compared to Vault? We ended up moving completely away from Vault because we didn't use most of its features and it wasn't worth the cost.

I was going to migrate my homelab from vault oss -> openbao, but I'm debating on whether that's even worth it or just going back to gpg encrypted files or something.

The keyboard community maybe? I think these little macro pads are neat, but I don't have a real use for them either.

Thanks for the onomatopoeia idea, I am going to steal it for my own global claude/agents.md.
