I've got a free(ish) day tomorrow wondering solo in Playa del Carman, MX - what should I do?

EVERYONE Google “Florida man” followed by your birthday and post the first result that shows up.

Homelabs

indexing

thinking about moving /indexing more bare metal with some /homelabs 

two distinct potential versions:

1/ "processing hub" -> need ~1:1 ratio between # of CPUs and # of GBs of RAM -> ideally runnable as a cluster

2/ "storage hub" -> need 100+ TB in RAID -> ideally accessible from a processing cluster (NAS?)

It's been a few years since I built out a homelab - any updates on best practices, places to shop, etc?

1/ Go to Mexico
2/ Stumble into an "Irish pub" on the way to the Airbnb
3/ DJ is playing Guns N' Roses
4/ They have an NFT collection on the menu

Helped a friend and his wife move this weekend

My favorite part wasn't the ~dozen boxes of candles or the full truckload of plants

It was the box labeled "hats we don't wear"

Building /indexing; love your data again. Probably also running 🏃‍♀️

Is it double bad that you only have eth and nerd sniped yourself?

about to run 13 miles at midnight

"feels like" is 91°

fuel plan tonight has been:
- 2 beers
- 1 shot
- fried pickles

Update:

4* beers and 1 am

Plan worked perfectly 👌

Will be pitching /indexing tomorrow alongside the rest of the Codebase cohort in their Demo Day 🫡

honored to have placed 3rd! 🔺

genuinely owe it all to the team making up for my [lack of] pitch skills

5 promising startups just wrapped S3 of Codebase, Avalanche's flagship incubator, culminating in a live Virtual Pitch Day. 

Each project had the opportunity pitch to a panel of distinguished judges for $500k in grand prizes!  

Let's see the results 👇

Farcaster

I have now open sourced /intelligent

The codebase is now free for everyone to use and build on top of. No attribution required. 

Few notes:
1. I've vibe-written a detailed Readme in both Frontend & Backend Repos
2. You might need to replace a few services but both repos are well-structured and organized for you to deep dive.
3. If you do stumbleupon any secrets, the services are already dead, so don't worry. I have scrubbed it anyways!

Frontend: https://github.com/tanishqsh/intelligent
Backend: https://github.com/tanishqsh/intelligent-backend

Here are some major services I used to run this:
Farcaster Raw Data: Indexing by @runninyeti.eth 
Database: postgres on GCP
Data Cache Layer: Firebase
Metadata: Moxie API [Needs replacement] and @Neynar
Job Scheduler: BullMQ + Redis
Frontend Deployment: Vercel
Backend Deployment: Heroku

A free gift: I had created an employee (custom GPT) with Intelligent's schema and data last year to plan and write code faster. Sharing that custom employee in comments below.

Feel free to ping me anytime in case of any doubts!

Long live /intelligent, long live Farcaster

in case you're wondering. yes pipelines with indexingco

we built a lightweight CLI for indexingco as we use webhook pipelines across client projects and management via bash scripts was cumbersome :D

@runninyeti.eth said we'll be able to ship more farcaster webhook related things soon. watch out

in the meantime we use indexingco for onchain webhooks

wen retro grants?

(seriously though, this epic!)
