Curious bout your use case for building all software from source, is it because you're worried about the supply chain since nixpkgs builds don't have reproducibility guarantee?

But we didn't have pressure to switch from C to Python & solved it down our throats by management, or social media telling us if you don't use Python you're getting left behind, did we?

In C vs. Python case, we know about technical trade-offs and when to use what, but in AI productivity neratives, we keep pretending that technical or cognitive debt created by AI doesn't exist.

Sure, person A can be 20% "faster" and suggest that this tool increases productivity by a magnitude, but if it costs person B 50% more time to review A's slop or clean up A's mess, the team's productivity doesn't really increase.

Git itself is decentralized, and we can use email to send patches, but GitHub's role is more like a social network to discover and "star" projects.

I really hope Forgejo/Gitea can get federation to work to the point where we can ditch GitHub, they already have the federated star feature [1] - I'm doing my part by hosting my own Forgejo instances and using Woodpecker CI + my own CI/CD system, and it's faster than GitHub Actions.

I'm currently using Longhorn for storage, but if I find some reasonably priced HDDs, I may add or switch to Rook.

When you make a change in git, it is automatically deployed without the need for human intervention.

Yes, I aim to keep the amount of languages and tools I use to a minimum:

- For simple scripts, use POSIX sh

- For more complex scripts, use Python

- For the same sort of task, use only one tool (e.g., only use Ansible for configuration management, don't mix in Puppet or Chef)

(Repo owner here) Yes, I'm mostly doing this as a learning exercise; there's still a lot of work to be done before I can rely on it to host my services.

For a homelab it seems severely overkill

Isn't that the point of homelab? ;)

(Repo owner here) I'm planning to build my own router with OpenWRT and install Wireguard on it, however due to the chip shortage I can't get the hardware for a reasonable price yet. Netmaker looks amazing, I need to play with it.

Repo owner here, I just created this account, I'm a long time HN lurker.

I was surprised to find this on Hacker News, I wanted to wait until the stable release before posting on HN, but thank you for posting :)

This project is still in alpha stage, but please feel free to critique; I'd appreciate it.

Edit 1: After reading some of the comments, I want to clarify a few things:

- Because it is currently in the alpha stage, I do not host anything important on it.

- This is also my learning environment, I use Kubernetes in my day job.

- Yes it is overkill ;)
