Chapter (https://jordanful.github.io/chapter/) - a self-hosted ebook reader (server/client) that uses a local TTS AI model for narration. Progress is stored server side, so you can switch from reading to listening anytime.

It's (at least) common courtesy to declare potential conflicts of interest.
jordanf · a month ago
I would have if there were potential conflicts.

My favorite genre of post in r/homelab and r/selfhosted this past year has been "I used AI to set all this stuff up and something broke so I asked AI to fix it and now all my data is gone."

There are so many NAS + Curated App Catalog distros out there that make self-hosting trivial without needing to Vibe SysAdmin.

I keep hearing this, and asking for examples, and there aren't really any.

What are you actually learning?

PSA: OP is a CEO of an AI company

who cares if I'm the CEO of an AI company? I didn't mention anything related to my company once in the post.

Great article! I think a paragraph on your backup strategy would make it even more complete and compelling, particularly given you put your passwords and photos in there.

Was this article written entirely by Claude for the most part? It definitely reads like it was.

I find LLMs remove all the fun for me. When I build my homelab, I want the satisfaction of knowing that I did it. And the learning gains that only come from doing it manually. I don't mind using an LLM to shortcut areas that are just pure pain with no reward, but I abstain from using it as much as possible. It gives you the illusion that you've accomplished something.
jordanf · a month ago
yeah. I wrote a little about that here: https://fulghum.io/fun2
