RE: infosec.exchange/@darkuncle/11

“When writing is hard, it’s often not just because we are tired, underfed, or inefficient but because our mind is trying to tell us crucial things. How many draft texts to colleagues or family members have we all stared at in frustration, wondering why they don’t feel quite right—until we finally realize that they need to be rethought completely, or not sent at all? When a book I was writing became an almost hopeless grind, I tore up 90 percent of the manuscript; it became a far more honest work for having been halted at a conceptual dead end, forcing me to turn back.

AI can’t make that kind of judgment.”

Holds equally for code.

      You could do the weblord thing and get a $20/yr cheap VPS then try:

      Forgejo: https://forgejo.org ...

      "Forgejo is a Free Software platform for collaboration and productivity in software development. It offers a familiar environment to GitHub users, easy installation and maintenance, and a focus on security, scaling, federation and privacy."
      ... or cgit, which is very fast and slick for the barebones portal ...

      ... codeberg has a nice setup (via forgejo) if you don't want to self-host.
