I have selected some news from the web dev world to share.
👀 Umbrel Self-hosting of Thomas Sanlis🤔 One month without AI🔬 Semantic emoji search with embeddings🤯 JSX at 30fps on a GBA with 288kb of RAM
Have a great week.
I have a NAS, and I self-host this website on a VPS with a coolify instance, I really like the look and the feel of Umbrel. I will try to install it on my old macbook to test it.
I agree with a lot of points the author makes. It’s difficult to have balance with letting AI do all the work and you writing code by hand. For me I choose to believe in harness or system which constrained the AI so much it can’t generate slop because the result is guided and stired. We will see..
Local in your device ( browser ) search vs Embeddings API vs Jev. Fun little demo about embedding. Even if Jev is really cheap and fast, a specific embedding tools can be better, faster and cheaper too. I think before using the latest hype things, try to check what is better for your use case first.
The title is mindblowing, I love seeing the update of PocketJS, its insane.
