Got into running AI models on my own hardware, testing, building agents, and sharing what actually works. Follow for daily insights, hardware tips, and no-BS tech talk (+ an additional rant from time to time).
Life gives you good times, bad times, challenges, bliss, or tough decisions.
You never know what's around the corner, but one thing is certain, there is always some work that can be done.
Build something!
Life has gone downhill so fast.
I am scared, lonely and feel like I’ve run out of options. Having dedicated the last 5 years of my life to web3 and crypto building & trading I have nothing to show for it other than a mountain of debts, some good memories, worthless JPEGs and screenshots of fumbles and pnls. Most of the people and communities I was part of are no longer here.
This time last year I’d just been told the crypto startup I was working for was closing.
I felt optimistic that I’d be able to find something new to work on and took the risk of flying to Breakpoint in Abu Dhabi, it was a great event and I met some good people but nothing concrete came from it.
So in the new year I threw myself into vibe coding and built a 404 payment platform. It got some traction but no revenue and I pivoted to building Parasol for agent trading which got hundreds of users in the first month.
I was proud of what I built, saw potential in it, entered Hackathons and was awarded some grant funding to do so; but ultimately failed to raise further rounds and couldn’t afford to keep up with the costs to running it.
Since then things have gone from bad to worse; I tried trading my way out, had some good days and weeks, but ended up in more debt which has become unmanageable.
Throughout the year I kept my marketing agency afloat and took DJ sets to make extra money, but have had to concede to closing the agency.
I’ve applied for 100+ jobs with not even an interview offer.
Yesterday I received an email from my landlord saying they need the house back in April 2027. I have 3 kids, nowhere to move into and expect it to be hard to find a new property due to bad debt and very limited housing options.
I feel so scared and don’t know where to turn to other than asking the crypto community for help. I never asked anyone for anything and find it hard to write or admit any of this but feel like it’s time to put my pride aside and start reaching out for help
@HermesAgentTips Gotta have backups. My proxmox died a few weeks ago, and it was a pain to recover my stuff.
Backup you agents if you don't do it already!
@XFreeze There should be a way for users to ban that site so that Grokbot never visits it again. Have this done across tens of thousands of users and that site is in for a rough awakening when traffic plummets because if their stupidity.
@aviadr1@peter_szilagyi Ppfff, why am I not surprised? The last software from them I used was something for the Harmony remote and it was full of bugs. Terrible.
My AI agents found an unmapped Maya site in Mexico, using LiDAR data from a NASA dataset.
72 hours from a random thought on vacation to a reply from Mexico's national archaeology institute.
What a time to be alive…

You can now replace a trigger, condition or action in Home Assistant without losing compatible settings. It works in the script editor too!

@Fexy27 Who allowed a patent on a piece of pressed metal?
In any case, the current patent system is a fraud and should be changed entirely. As it is now it just hinders competition, to the detriment of everybody.
