What you say applies to slop, not anyone using AI seriously. Which is a small minority, but still.

If you put in a lot of work, you might not be the author of the realization but you are author of the concept (assuming it is not trivial). Why should you not be able to protect your ideas?

What is the status of a movie director compared to the actors?

Who is usually mentioned when discussing whether the movie was well crafted or not?

The best actor cannot save a shitty plot.

Nothing to protect if you don’t expose it.

Plain and simple - Wireguard.

All services run as separate services user in rootless podman containers.

Only one nginx exposed to the open internet acting as reverse proxy to stuff where Wireguard requirement would be too inconvenient to be useful (shared calendar).

Funny how you explain alcohol like I would explain weed.

Weed for me is the universal emotion amplifier. It amplifies enjoyment (music, food, anything) as much as it amplifies anxiety. In fact weed helped me confront my anxieties and become a more chill person overall. I had to choose between keeping my unprocessed fears and continue vaping weed and decided to work through it, confront and think through the weird fears that my anxious brain constantly produced, repressed and weed surfaced. In that sense, I believe weed can be a therapeutic drug, when combined with some proper self-reflection, CBT skills, and not using absurdly high THC strains.

Alcohol for me primarily increases the “not giving a fuck”-ness, causing mild relaxation in the beginning and removing self control and filters at higher dosage. It quickly becomes physically unpleasant for me to I learned “my limits” when I was younger, its not fun at all to go beyond them and not worth it so I stick to a few beer or glasses of wine at most and avoid stuff that gets you drunk quicker than you can control it. The “buzzed” sweet spot is really narrow for me, probably I’m lucky that my body rejects alcohol so that overdoing it is self-torture.

But of course everyone is different.

Not sure my Raspberry is powerful enough to handle docker or if there are suitable images for arm. Otherwise sure that would be even simpler.

I absolutely agree that many people should not have kids, and nobody should feel pressured to do so, and everybody should think twice before they do if it really is what they want and they are ready for that.

But as “general advice”? Sorry, but this is ridiculous.

Saying this as a fucking exhausted parent of a baby. It is hard, but absolutely no regrets here.

Of course if you value your own free time and activities above everything else, then yes, definitely please do not have kids. There will be no time for anything but baby care and the bare minimum household maintenance for a long time.
