I think nostr is the better decentralised social media technology, but I fear you might feel left out by the people that frequent it (as they would here).

The first, single folder for all of them.

I have a shared syncthing folder on all my devices

Syncthing is not limited to local network. It’s hole punching is one of the major features

The first commit on main would be a rough structure of the document.

Then branches for each feature (in your case perhaps “abstract”, “chapter 2: intro” “chapter 2: methodology” “chapter 2: conclusion”), and branches for bugs (in your case perhaps: “proofreading and errata chapter 2”, “correct legend figure 4.2”).

Sounds like a fine usecase for git.

I don’t know the structure of your work, and there is not one correct way to do things.

“Too short” branches would be when you open and merge into main multiple times a day. “Too long” branches would be when one person works on their own branch for months without checking the whole.

In software, before merging into main, it’s customary to have a person other than the author review and (dis)approve the changes.

Make sure everything starts automatically after a reboot, and reboot daily.

In the context of this tweet most important differences are:

SQL is a language for querying databases.

Most common used databases are relational databases. With relational databases you can setup, well, relations and constraints.

Imagine you have 2 tables (2 excel sheets) one with people, and one with home ownership. You can set the following constraint: (1) each person shows up only once in the people table. And the following relation: (2) every home owner must refer to an existing person in people table.

When modifying the table contents, the system checks if no constraints or relations are violated.

Excel, just like a badly designed relational databse, would, for example, have no problem with duplicate people, or home ownership referring to non-existant people.

Or mongoDB 🙄

Probably something bespoke/legacy.

Most commercial models have that, sadly. At training time they’re presented with both positive and negative responses to prompts.

If you have access to the trained model weights and biases, it’s possible to undo through a method called abliteration (1)

The silver lining is that a it makes explicit what different societies want to censor.

An easy out of the box solution would be a synology NAS.

It’s marketing speak for someone else’s computer.

ntfy.sh is an option

For HW I personally use a NUC. If I were to build something today within said budget, I’d go for a second hand thin client.

For example the Thinkcentre M720q Tiny I can buy for 225EUR, coming with 8th gen core i5, 8GiB RAM, 256GiB SSD (1). Idle consumption is around 5W.

I use syncthing to sync folders between phone, tablet, desktop and my home server (a NUC).

Then rsync on a schedule from the server to a second off-site server (also a NUC) as backup, connected through zerotier.

I know of truenas, which is a more NAS like solution, but haven’t personally used that.
