Study Finds That 52 Percent of ChatGPT Answers to Programming Questions Are Wrong
  • The amount of reference material it has is also a big influence. I've had to pick up PLC programming a while ago (codesys/structured text, which is kinda based on pascal). While chatgpt understands the syntax it has absolutely no clue about libraries and platform limitations so it keeps hallucinating those based on popular ones in other languages.

    Still a great tool to have it fill out things like I/O mappings and the sorts. Just need to give it some examples to work with first.

  • Voyager 1
  • Oh I switched jobs, so not switch as in migrate.

    The industry I work in now is very conservative, so Microsoft is a brand people know and "trust". Amazon is scary and new.

  • Voyager 1
  • As someone who recently switched from AWS to Azure I feel your pain.

    Best part is when you finally have a working solution, Microsoft sends you an email that it's being deprecated.

  • How are you making services remotely accessible?
  • If it's only you (or your household) that is accessing the services then something like hosting a tailscale VPN is a relatively user friendly and safe way to set-up remote access.

    If not, then you'd probably want to either use the aforementioned Cloudflare tunnels, or set up a reverse proxy container (nginx proxy manager is quite nice for this as it also handles certs and stuff for you). Then port forward ports 80 and 443 to the server (or container if you give it a separate IP). This can be done in your router.

    In terms of domain set-up. I've always found subdomains (homeassistant.domain.com) to be way less of a hassle compared to directories (domain.com/homeassistant) since the latter may need additional config on the application end.

    Get a cheap domain at like Cloudflare and use CNAME records that point domain.com and *.domain.com to your dyndns host. Iirc there's also some routers/containers that can do ddns with Cloudflare directly, so that might be worth a quick check too.

  • Low tech DHCP
  • Guess I'm a bit too young for that still lol. We got a pair of ISDN2 lines in 1994 (so technically also 256k lol) at home, but I was too young to remember that. With cable internet coming in 97, that was technically still slower than bonded isdn at the very start.

    In a way I was very privileged growing up when it came to Internet. My dad's company at the time paid good money to get all the latest (often testing phase) stuff to his house in return for being available 24/7.

  • Low tech DHCP
  • Talking about Lan uplinks, in the early 2010's I had the joy of working with a 20gb uplink at a small university LAN (the sysadmin got a good amount of free pizza and beers for that one). I spent a large amount of my savings on a 10gb NIC only to find out my hard drive couldn't keep up lol.

  • "Twy Edge Pwetty Pwease"
  • People having to work with Microsoft stuff (not just windows) have gotten so used to needing to find workarounds for everything that those genuine issues have become the baseline expectation.

    Only having to fill in a wrong email/password a few times sounds like peak user experience compared to the shit I have to pull in Azure/Power BI/AD at times. My genuine first reaction when reading that post was "ah of course, that makes sense".

    Personally I use Linux for server/container stuff wherever possible. With the occasional excursion into Manjaro to see what's happening on the desktop side.

  • "Twy Edge Pwetty Pwease"
  • I am repping Rufus here, not windows. Painful as it may sound, truth is that most people creating windows usbs would do so from windows.

    The tool you're talking about might be Ventoy. Which is indeed a great way to make any type of bootable usb stick. Once installed you can just throw all sorts of isos (and more) to your usb drive and it'll generate nice grub menu to pick from.

    You'll just have to use the classic oobe\bypassnro method instead to install windows. (The fact that you have to use a workaround to create a local account at all is still BS, there's no denying that.)

  • "Twy Edge Pwetty Pwease"
  • I just did it this morning, when you burn the ISO to a usb drive using Rufus you get a nice little menu that allows you to pre-set a local account, disable the TPM check and more.

    The biggest pain is downloading the windows 11 iso in the first place. You can only do that when the site believes you're not already using windows.

    Bypassing the online check on setup is basically required on new hardware anyways, since most 2.5g/wifi6+ networking drivers aren't included in the installer.

  • What's the real world connection speed from your residential IP to your Server?
  • There's a couple SD-WAN solutions out there that you can do this with. Essentially route all your traffic through one or more VPSes while still keeping things like port forwards and STUN working properly.

    I've had to use it to enable proper video feeds to and from people that had Spectrum as their ISP.
