About jnd-cz

Just a hobby hacker, at times I tinker with some hardware, other times I do software. Currently contributing dozens servers to ntppool.org.

I have old school preferences such as websites which rely mostly on backend, I don't get why you need to compile interpreted languages, and I like to run my software directly on the system without docker because it works just fine. Single executable with single config file is preferred which is why I like go programs.

    The digital part of TCXO is interesting. It must be some simple microncontroller with lookup table that steers the frequency back to nominal value. These days you really have compu…

    This depends how close to the solder joint (or to board) you are trimming. If you're already cutting solder together with the component lead then it's too close and can affect the …

    The sum of human knowledge is more than enough to come up with innovative ideas and not every field is working directly with the physical world. Still I would say there's enough in…

    Unless you use your oen local models then you don't even know when OpenAI or Anthropic tweaked the model less or more. One week it's a version x, next week it's a version y. Just l…

    Of course they aren't polluters as in generating some kind of smoke themselves. But they do consume megawatts upon megawatts of power that has to be generated somewhere. Not often …

    Yeah, one may not use it but it's hard to ignore when Office apps suggest you save the document to the cloud as a default. I do avoid it and don't really need any collaboration but…

    In my country and city the small shops are largely stocked from buying the same things from larger shops combined with their own resupplying network. So you can either walk 100m to…

    No, this need a server too. Everything that saves changes to non local (shareable) locations needs some kind of a server. The best solutions are of course when OP hosts the server …
