  • That’s exactly what I do.

    What I mean by making them in the pot is that the popped corn rise from the bottom (pushed up by newly popped kernels), also without a chance to burn, whereas in a microwave all the corn will continue to be zapped by the electromagnetic waves even after being popped, for a significantly higher risk of burning.

    Even if you keep the pot too long in the stove/hob, only the very bottom layer of corn will burn. 👍


  • Could you explain a bit more?

    Like, right now, I have two machines on my local network. Both are running sshd on port 22.

    In my router, I’ve set the port forwarding to be some high port number in the 19000’s to forward to port 22 on the first machine, and then the same high port number incremented by one (1) to forward to port 22 on the second machine.

    Also key based login only of course.

    Is this insecure in some way?

    Would a VPN make connecting to my computers more secure somehow? I’m not sure I understand how if so.


    What I meant with the Jellyfin question was kind of, how is having it exposed via a reverse proxy different from exposing its port right away? Is it because the only allowed connection would be HTTPS/encrypted etc, maybe?

    I’ve never set up a home network apart from physical cables and using routers and switches before, no advanced site/network configuring. Definitely interested to learn more though for when I want to serve a real media center using a NAS and like a Pi.




  • Punchable is a bit far

    Didn’t mean that literally 😁 I just thought it was funny to describe a written response as punchable. But the response was annoying.

    It might not be the developer’s fault, but him practically defending the choice by completely dodging the performance aspect is irresponsible to me. It’s like he’s ashamed to discuss it. Or doesn’t have the knowledge to?

    A good developer should speak up and say that they might not have the skill set required for the task. That’s my opinion. Either that or learn the ropes but flag for extra time needed.

    the right tool is always the one you know how to use…

    100% disagree. There are more suitable tools for certain jobs.

    Hello I am looking for a job as a surgeon. Okay what tools do you know? Jackhammer. That’s the only one you know? Yup. Mmkay then that’s the right tool for surgery in your case, can you start Monday?

    🫠

    Imagine someone using Java to write a program that just runs several other commands in sequence. That should really be a script, and the developer should learn a sufficiently suitable shell scripting language.

    But yeah, ultimately I agree, it’s not his “fault”. Especially if he flagged this to be something a bit out of the ordinary, and his manager(?) insisted. Then it’s 100% not the guy’s fault, for sure ong.

    Do you take this so personally that you are now resorting to ad hominems? My guy. 🤭

    Is this your personal project? Why are you getting this butthurt? I just don’t care about AI, because I don’t need to use it. And I don’t have to care about AI for anyone.

    You should see my inbox full of people just like you yapping on and on about this n8n thing, explaining what it’s for, when I explicitly said I don’t want to know more.

    Listen, so you won’t feel so sad anymore: I’m not opposed to using AI, I’m just sick of hearing about it because I don’t need it for the reasons everybody is saying I should.

    Now can you either act like an adult or not talk to me again? Thanks, my dude.
