cmpit··on AI doesn't suck, people do
I don't disagree :-)
cmpit··on AI doesn't suck, people do
Social media is made up of people.
cmpit··on How to self-host Dokku on Hetzner
if only you'd read the article and see that it uses the letsencrypt dokku plugin
cmpit··on How I set up new MacBooks
Noted, thank you!
cmpit··on Easily setup new MacBooks
That's how I found some to be honest. :-)
cmpit··on Easily setup new MacBooks
Exactly, haha. If something's important enough, it'll find its way to the new machine. :-D
cmpit··on Easily setup new MacBooks
Thanks for sharing it. Will deffo have a look and pick some stuff for my config.
cmpit··on Easily setup new MacBooks
I get that. Personally, I'm a bit weird because I don't like to bring all the stuff from the previous machine (documents, files, etc.). I like to start fresh and only install a couple of apps / configure some settings.
cmpit··on Ask HN: What companies will be remote friendly in 2025?
I can't talk for other companies, but Documenso was, is, and will remain remote.

Disclaimer: I work there.

cmpit··on Remote Work Can Be Better
After working remotely for 5 years and running into a bunch of problems such as burnout, eye problems, loneliness, and no promotions, I decided to write an article on how to make remote working better. Hope it helps anyone.
cmpit··on I Landed 4 Jobs and Earned $25K+ with Technical Writing
"This is super valuable advice I wish I'd known much earlier."

Thanks! That's why I have been talking about technical writing and its power since I started with it in 2019. Many engineers disregard it as "ah, it's just blog posts", but it's more than that. It can have a huge impact on your career.

cmpit··on Self-Hosting Next.js (45M video tutorial)
Awesome, thank you!
cmpit··on Self-Hosting Next.js (45M video tutorial)
This is good! I haven't had the chance to watch the whole tutorial, but will all the Next.js features work when you self-host it?
cmpit··on Eric Schmidt: Build more AI datacenters, we won't 'hit climate goals anyway'
"Google's former chief Eric Schmidt thinks we shouldn't let AI's ballooning power consumption worry us, because putting AI to work on climate change issues will be our best shot at solving them."

With the current AI electricity consumption, I'm not so sure about that. I hope to be proven wrong, though.

cmpit··on Show HN: Browse the Internet on LSD
Got it, thanks!
cmpit··on Show HN: Browse the Internet on LSD
I have to admit that I expected something else when I saw the title.

Nonetheless, this looks really cool, congrats! What would be some use cases for this? I can think of scraping data.

cmpit··on Self hosting a Copilot replacement: my personal experience
I also wanted to try some local LLMs, but gave up and came to the same conclusion:

"While the idea of having a personal and private instance of a code assistant is interesting (and can also be the only available option in certain environments), the reality is that achieving the same level of performance as GitHub Copilot is quite challenging.".

But considering the pace at which AI and the ecosystem advances, things might change soon.

cmpit··on Leaving Substack
I never got the hype of Substack.

I use Ghost for a while now and it's fantastic. The fact that it's open-source, self-hostable, super customizable (themes), has free/premium memberships and can be used both as a blog and newsletter is what makes me stick to it.

cmpit··on Building an AI Coach to Tame My Monkey Mind
While I'm happy it works for this person, I wouldn't do it myself for 2 big reasons:

1. I don't need more technology in my life and more detachment from human connection. If I need a therapist, I'll work with a human.

2. I don't trust companies with such sensitive and personal data.

RE 2nd point, this comment is spot on - https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=39999142.

cmpit··on Show HN: ClassroomIO – an in-browser programming environment for education
Nice one, congrats! Is this something like CodeSandbox or more like a LeetCode platform where you solve problems, get feedback and so on?

P.S: I just created an account today on classromio.com, which has a different purpose, but it's weird that I came across 2 different apps with the same name in the same day.
