Are you talking about this one German instance that did not want to get in trouble with German laws ? That's the neat part about the fediverse, each instance can have their own rules, and one instance can update its rules to comply with local laws without requiring other instances to do the same

I roughly agree with everythibg you said, but this is a "Reddit" community after all. What did you expect when you subscribed to it ?

Reminds me of the time when I bind mounted my home dir in a chroot, then rm -rfed the chroot when I no longer needed it...

To anyone saying it's dumb not to use a forge, have you heard of a little open source project called Linux ? It does not use a forge either

There are a few things I don't like about this scoring system :

  • Why is there a "Top Provider Content Share" metric if its gonna score the same as the "Top Provider User Share" every time ?
  • Why is the Top Provider Content Share not higher than the user share ? For instance, emails usually have at least one sender and one recipient, making it twice as likely that at least one of them is using gmail. If an email has 10 recipients across 10 different providers, each provider has a copy of the data
  • Why is ease of hosting a mail server rated so well ? How is "leveraging email hosting services" decentralized in any way ?
  • Why are we using a random repo created a few hours ago by a random github user as a reference ?

Self hosting emails is a pain, but I've been doing it for almost 2 years and I do not have any of these issues. I'm not an expert either, I just thoroughly followed a tutorial to properly configure dmarc, dkim and everything else and everything just works (I just hope I'm not jinxing it by writing this :D )

When the agent is stuck or does nothing, it often keeps doing nothing until it times out. I'm adding a shorter time limit so it spends a little less time being stuck over the whole training

Hey everyone!

I've been working on my own toy reinforcement learning (RL) framework for a while now and have nearly implemented a full Rainbow agent—though I'm still missing the distributional component due to some design choices that make integration tricky. Along the way, I’ve used this framework to experiment with various concepts, mainly reward normalization strategies and exploration policies.

I started by training the agent on simpler games like Snake, but things got really interesting when I moved on to Super Mario Bros. Watching the agent learn and improve has been incredibly fun, so I figured—why not share the experience? That’s why I’m streaming the learning process live!

Right now, the stream is fairly simple, but I plan to enhance it with overlays showing key details about the training run—such as hyperparameters, training steps/episodes, performance graphs, and maybe even a way to visualize the agent’s actions in real-time.

If you have any ideas on how to make the stream more engaging, or if you're curious about the implementation, feel free to ask!

If you are interested in web technologies, you can turn your python program into a local API using something like Flask, then make a web interface using HTML/JS.

Alternatively, if your databases are on a filesystem that supports snapshots (LVM, btrfs or ZFS for instance), you can make a snapshot of the filesystem, mount the snapshot and backup thame database from it. This will ensure the backup is consistent with itself (the backed up directory was not written to between the beginning and the end of the backup)

A 10 minute read covering some YAML edge-cases that you should have in mind when writing complex YAML files

 

This (old) post details how to interfere with randomness to make it feel more random to the end user.

This reminded me of how many games “cheat” in a similar way to make critical hits seem more fair (increase the probability when it has not triggered for too long and decrease it when it just triggered)

 

I'm looking for a cloud provider with a cheap VPS offer to host my own wireguard relay and use it to seed.

I've read that Switzerland is safe for torrenting, so I was thinking about using Infomaniak. Does anyone has experience with seeding torrents from their IP addresses ? I'm also interested in other suggestions.

Thank you :)
