Colors - Core concepts Using and customizing the color palette in Tailwind CSS projects. tailwindcss.com [1] Tailwind has the best color system, very well done. Even if you don’t use it, it serves as a great color picker. References: [1]: https://tailwindcss.com/docs/colors

- Big fan of Primes setup. I was not far off of his setup before he really came on the scene, but I’ve picked up a ton of nuggets from him and how he operates. I took his first developer productivity course on Front End Masters as it came out. It is interesting to see him roll back his ansible scripts for bash scripts here. I converted my setup to ansible after watching his first, but have also since rolled back to bash scripts for quite similar reasons. Ansible is great for remote tasks that need to be done on a fleet of machines, but like he says here overkill for this purpose and ends up something that you need to read the docs for every change to your dotfiles. Unlike prime I’ve really leaned harder on installing everything in a docker image and developing out of a docker image. I’ve long built docker images of my dotfiles with the idea that its nice to be able to just use them on other machines, but it rarely happened. In the past year I’ve moved bazzite, an immutable distro. It comes with podman and distrobox, so I install very little on it, a few flatpaks from the store for brave and signal, but most of what I really use day to day comes from my devtainer. It’s nice t...

ERR_SSL_VERSION_OR_CIPHER_MISMATCH Learn how to troubleshoot ERR_SSL_VERSION_OR_CIPHER_MISMATCH when using Cloudflare SSL/TLS. Cloudflare Docs · developers.cloudflare.com [1] Today I learned that cloudflare free tier universal certs do not support multilevel subdomains. By default, Cloudflare Universal SSL certificates only cover your apex domain and one level of subdomain.

[1] Migrating from kedro 0.18.4 to the latest version involves handling the deprecated OmegaConf loader. Switching over does not look as bad as I originally thought. - installing kedro 0.18.5+ - set the CONFIG_LOADER_CLASS in settings.py - swap out import statements - config must be yaml or json - getting values from config must be done with bracket __getattr__ style not with .get - any Exceptions caught from Templated config loader will need to be swapped to OmegaConfig exceptions, similar to #3 - templated values must lead with an _ - Globals are handled different - OmegaConfig does not support jinja2 sytax, but rather a ${variable} syntax References: [1]: /static/https://docs.kedro.org/en/stable/configuration/config_loader_migration.html

[1] Prime mentioned on stream that Whites were his favorite switch. I tend to like lighter switches and want to give it a try. I really like my Durock lupine’s at 55g, the box whites are 45g, that feels like it would take quite a bit more control, floating over the keys.

An Aspect Ratio Guide for Every Filmmaker How can the aspect ratio of your film or TV show contribute to your story? No Film School · nofilmschool.com [1] A good reference of common screen ratios. I just realized that 16:9 is also 1.78:1. I’ve been putting some images on my blog again, and thinking about using some 2.39:1 ratio on them.

- There is a glimmer of hope out there that normal people can scrap together enough gpu to really run the latest models themselves. The ui really appears to be having huge leaps forward such that doing things like rag is no longer such a research project that it was just a few years ago. So excited to see Prime go through this homelab [1] exercise. References: [1]: /homelab/

- Oh, this kills me to hear it. RSS is the OG [1] way to subscribe and share content out to others. It gives you control of what you subscribe to and reminds you when new content lands on your favorite sites. It is a huge component of web 1.0 and I feel is the most decentralized social media can ever hope to be. References: [1]: /og/

Behold, the Steam Brick A modder has transformed the Steam Deck in a screen-less, controller-less Steam Brick. Rock Paper Shotgun · rockpapershotgun.com [1] I fully believe in our right to repair, ewaste reduction, and bringing a second life to still good hardware that is not up for it’s originally intended purpose. This is a sick console like experience you can strap to the back of a tv, throw in your back to take on a trip, or leave stuffed in your vehicle to game in the backseat. Sucks that it cant do 4k, but I’ve used mine on large screens, and it does quite well for a lot of games, maybe not AAA, but the cartoony multplayer games I play with my kids do quite well.

- Damn these deepseek memes go hard. Wild to see openai get played by their own game. It’s crazy that the normie news that I have seen on deepseek shows that the Chinese made what the Americans did at a fraction of the price, without taking notice that they are building on the shoulders of openai.

- 👏👏👏 This one is really good. I’m right there with him on most of this. I am very hesitant on subscription models, and all the ai tools feel like they are getting ready to be the next round of death by a thousand cuts, this time with pretty limited free tier and relatively high prices to run. I’m sure we will see companies get taken by huge bills soon by building off of someone else’s service. On the flip side I’m definitely the guy that gets in a rut of just copy paste to the ai, wait for codeium to to inject. I feel like I have issues of momentum more than anything. When I’m on one side or the other I tend to stick it out for too long, but less so on going without because that llm drug is calling you when you hit a hard problem. I’m excited to see him build out a homelab [1] for llm stuff that he mentioned at the top. I’m interested, but probably not building one out for myself until we start to see some cheaper maybe used hardware to do it. References: [1]: /homelab/

- Kelsey says several times in this interview, you don’t need kubernetes. If you are running one node you don’t need kubernetes. My question though is, would you use kubernetes? Ya I get it if you are a web developer, data scientist, backend dev, but if you are looking to bee a whole ass engineer, or infrastructure engineer, you know kubernetes, Should you use kubernetes on single node?

Models Pydantic Docs · docs.pydantic.dev [1] I came accross from_attributes today it allows creation of pydantic models from objects such as a sqlalchemy Base Model or while nesting pydantic models. I believe in the past I have ran into some inconsistencies with nesting pydantic models and I’ll bet one had from_attributes set and another did not. Arbitrary class instances¶ (Formerly known as “ORM Mode”/from_orm). Pydantic models can also be created from arbitrary class instances by reading the instance > attributes corresponding to the model field names. One common application of this functionality is integration with object-relational mappings (ORMs). To do this, set the from_attributes config value to True (see the documentation on Configuration for more details). The example here uses SQLAlchemy, but the same approach should work for any ORM.

- Dang strong stance that tmux and zellij should not exist. I really do get his point though. Theres a good number of terminal features I often miss out on because I run tmux. Its an app that runs apps, and doesn’t let all of the signals back to the host. But its fantastic at what it does, and brings so much to the table that the little bit of downside it brings is well worth it to me. The other thing missing in this discussion is that I can take my hotkeys and session workflow to any machine just by running tmux. I do not need to run a certain terminal, or install it headlessly on a server to get special features just for it.

[1] Good overview of seaborn color palettes. They have all sorts of different types, some designed to purposfully give each color the same weight for catecorization. Some designd to give linear differences in value, some have a parabolic feel with a diverging nature. References: [1]: /static/https://seaborn.pydata.org/tutorial/color_palettes.html
