Hey fedi friends!

@vaurora *yawns* it's 7:35am, still in bed after a good night's sleep. Next: coffee, the elixir of life.

@vaurora writing a Telegram bot that prints the incoming newsletters to a small printer so I can finally delete Telegram from my phone

@vaurora I'm supposed to be working, but I am actually excitedly waiting for a #tea delivery. Half a kilo of #FTGFOP from the #Mangalam estate in #Assam.

@vaurora Decided that I would get a systems architecture book. Recommendations are welcome!

I was thinking about LLM's and agents, where I was wondering if it was the technologist or addict part of my brain that would like to further research LLM/agent-based coding.

Currently, I feel limited by not being able to properly define the system or project I want to bring to life. That has to do with both general architecture scope/design, and the (in-depth?) knowledge of the tool or system I want to use. I can learn (with my actual human brain) how to properly architecture a system or project. Then, in the mean time, the AI bubble can implode or not. At the end, I know how to architect projects for either outcome, a net positive.

@jay9 @vaurora What kind of printer! One of those small thermal doohickies?

[jay9@chaos.social]

@hp Definitely! A small thermal printer that was used in a restaurant. Liam donated two of em to our hackerspace and I keep coming up with random small projects to use it

[hp@mastodon.tmm.cx]

@jay9 that's such a fun idea!

So next time I want to talk to you it'll have to be via thermal printout?

@vaurora update: I have tea!

[stonebear2@hachyderm.io]

@vaurora This morning: Social media, including celebrating the arrests of figures in senior leadership who done screwed the pooch and are looking at never another day outside of bars; this afternoon, a combination of financial mundanity and plotting shenanigans across borders... sadly, no Eurostar involved. (Hopefully they'll figure out Europe _has_ an East sooner or later... )

@collectifission where do you shop for glasses? Mine are 10 year old Chesterfields and so out of fashion, but nothing else works for me

[vaurora@mstdn.social]

@biocrusoe ooh I love night trains!!!

[th@social.v.st]

@vaurora revisiting an old project, but trying to do it right this time

[jay9@chaos.social]

@hp Haha, you can send me proper newsletters about your life! But text me on Signal if you want a response though

[vaurora@mstdn.social]

@janl yay nature!

[vaurora@mstdn.social]

@wynke sounds lovely, let's virtually co-work. You do housework and I will review comments on the CRA VPN standard

[vaurora@mstdn.social]

@xgebi what is DELF?

[vaurora@mstdn.social]

@ginabythebay oooh sounds actually quite reasonable

[sherbang@chaos.social]

@vaurora toying with using kluctl instead of opentofu for the bulk of our infra deployments.

Tofu/terraform don't seem to work very well, and seem to be overkill for deploying kubernetes workloads. It feels like we're fighting with the tooling too much.

The question is, am I just exchanging one set of problems for another equally frustrating set? We'll see...
