So you're saying that if someone pays for something disgusts you, it shouldn't be included in the GDP figures? What percentage of the economy is people doing that sort of thing? Probably less than 1%, and the amount probably doesn't change much from year to year, so GDP figures are 99% accurate. That makes them more accurate than every source of news and every politician and every tech CEO.

Just wait until your hard drive is gummed up by old Linux kernel images the system keeps around "just in case", without telling you, without explaining why or how you may want to use them, and no way to clean them up except mucking around in the terminal. Just wait until your hard drive gets so gummed up it corrupts your bootloader and now you DEFINITELY have to muck around in the terminal to fix it. Except you can't be arsed and just let it sit for 9 months like a brick of shame, a non-testament to Linux's desktop readiness. Just wait.

READ THE (temp)WIKI! & help by contributing:
https://igwiki.lyci.de/wiki/Home_server

/hsg/ is about learning and expanding your horizons. Know all about NAS? Learn virtualization. Spun up some VMs? Learn about networking by standing up a OPNsense/PFsense box and configuring some VLANs. There's always more to learn and chances to grow. Think you’re god-tier already? Setup OpenStack and report back.

>What software should I run?
Install Gentoo. Or whatever flavor of *nix is best for the job or most comfy for you. Jellyfin/Emby/Plex to replace Netflix, Nextcloud to replace Googlel, Ampache/Navidrome to replace Spotify, the list goes on. Look at the awesome self-hosted list and ask.

>Why should I have a home server?
De-botnet your life. Learn something new. Serving applications to yourself, your family, and your frens feels good. Put your tech skills to good use for yourself and those close to you. Store their data with proper availability redundancy and backups and serve it back to them with a /comfy/ easy to use interface.

Hi guys, I'm thinking of building a NAS in my place. The problem is I don't have a storage closet or anything to hide it, so it would be going right next to my workstation and home theater.

Is the Jonsbo N5 going to be really loud? I would replace the fans with say Arctic PWMs. Anyone have experience with this? I'm trying to avoid going the Fractcal Define 7 XL route since its so gargantuan.

I currently use a 10 year old pc in an old NZXT case with 2x 24tb, but I would be loading up the Jonsbo with 6x 24tb most likely

These services need to increase adoption to survive, but most users can't see what the cutting edge models are capable without paying upfront

traditionally this problem is resolved by trial periods or upfront free credits. There's a huge problem with this. There's a legion of millions of thirdworlders, mostly Indians, abusing free trials and credits bleeding these services dry of compute.

I have a behind the scenes view of how bad this problem is. I know that it's costing one smaller company tens of millions of dollars, and I can extrapolate from that, that it's costing the industry billions. It's a huge problem and these companies don't know what to do. For every legitimate user free access brings in, there's ten users abusing it. Some companies are beginning to close out trial periods but their new users are falling off a cliff. They're fucked either way.

Seconding this

> In programming, it’s quite difficult to determine the point at which you actually know something versus when you don’t. A person may be strong in systems development, yet when interacting with someone of a comparable skill level who works in web development, they can feel incompetent.

Are there any objective metrics for assessing a developer’s level? For example, can someone who has built LFS be considered technically mature? Or someone who has reached a senior position? These are just examples. I’m interested in a subjective perspective on what criteria actually make sense for evaluating an engineer’s level.

Write 2 basic tests which determine whether or not the person can solve basic problems by using variables and functions.
Write 1 complex test which determines whether or not the person can solve a multi-step problem.

They don't need to pass the test, but if they display an ability to break down a problem into smaller steps, then write functions, then you can bet that they will be able to write a large scale program given enough time if they *want* to.

A real method is just a checklist of program methodologies and evidence that they used such a methodology. Variables, using the variable correctly, int usage, operator usage +-/* modulus, function, using the function correctly, designing functions appropriately, recursion (very rarely useful), lambdas, external libraries, file usage, datatype class definitions, a math test can be very very good for long term aptitude. There is only 1 thing that matters and that is the will to do it. 10 years of will can prove to be surmounting in experience and skill so beyond that of other developers that catching up in speed may seem impossible.

>Song submission rules/guidelines
Upload the file somewhere, preferably in a lossless format, and post the link here. If you want to update your track, make a new post.
Include the song title in the post, and make it clear that your song is a submission for the album.
Optionally you may include cover art for your track, but please confirm that the image in your post is the cover art or it won't be included. You may not use your real artist name.
Songs that contain anything against YouTube's policies won't be uploaded on YT, but will still be added to the album.
By default, tracks will be normalised to -14 LUFS (integrated loudness) in the release. You may specify a lower loudness for your track.
Use of AI is banned. This includes AI generated stems, samples, and effects. "AI" includes all neural network-based models and not hard-coded automation/procedural generation. You are allowed to ask an LLM about music-related questions, but asking it to give you musical ideas (eg. generating a chord progression) is already a no-no.

Computers are deterministic when ignoring outside influence.
