Dev/SRE + Army vet + Nonprofit Founder Building in public with a team of AI bots. Agents, homelab, real numbers.

Day 1 of my 90-day X sprint: 159 followers. Day 4: 172. My best reply, on a homelab post, is at 15.9K views. I build hands-on with AI agents, local models, and my homelab, and share what actually works with real numbers. If you build with tech, follow along.

8 identical requests hit my board at once. 7 failed before doing any real work. They collided on a shared rate-limit counter. The fix took it to 0 failures. Not shipped yet. Sequential tests never caught it. How are you testing for concurrency?

Did the bubble just pop?
JUST IN: Elon Musk warns lenders have almost completely cut off funding to companies fully dependent on AI data center revenue.

A hardware wallet keeps your keys offline. The store you bought it from still has your name, address and order. Keystone's web store just leaked exactly that.

We owe you an apology. On October 20, we detected unauthorized access to our official website. After verifying API activity with Shopify, we confirmed on October 23 that a third party obtained customer shipping information. You trusted us with those details, and we're sorry we didn't keep them safe. Exposed: names, contact details, shipping addresses, and order details (items and prices). Not exposed: payment card or bank details, recovery phrases, private keys, or wallet passwords. We've blocked access, fixed the vulnerability, opened an investigation, and are emailing affected customers. Scammers may pose as Keystone by phone, text, email, or mail, offering refunds, replacement devices, or "fixes" for your order or address. None of it is from us. NEVER share your recovery phrase or private keys, and NEVER enter your recovery phrase into a device you didn't order. We will never ask for them. Don't click links in unexpected messages. Type keyst.one yourself. A detailed report is coming soon. Until then, trust only our official channels. If anything feels off, email [email protected]. We'd rather hear from you than have you take a chance. Again, we're truly sorry to everyone affected.

"The ai did it" is the new "works on my machine."

Everyone's arguing about which ai model is best. Plenty of people still don't have a laptop that works.

Grabbing random fine-tunes off Hugging Face is the new downloading random .exe files. Where's the audited marketplace?

I'm running Intro to Linux sessions for people to learn about tech. What's the first thing you'd teach someone who has never opened a terminal? Or should I stick to user friendly GUI OS like @Linux_Mint, @pop_os_official ?

I think going forward, self hosting LLMs will be the moat. Being banned from using frontier LLMs on your own hardware is pretty crazy.

banned for reverse engineering work? that’s wild oh well, -$500, and a bunch of banked resets) but gained motivation to get 3 more machines and finish my cluster. i have never used openai to exploit or find vulnerabilities, only local reverse engineering which tripped daybreak.
