Me neither. It is fascinating to see the progress from those to the final version. I wish I could speak to the author to learn a bit more about his creative process.


Not at the moment. Do you see a lot of references in the other ones?


> But I realized I have to learn when to take a break and go outside or something.

This is a big problem for me. I can force myself to step away sometimes, but more often than not I end up chasing a bug or trying to finish "just one more thing". Then I fall into a vicious cycle where I'm tired but keep going anyway -- which only makes things worse. Does anyone else have that problem? Were you able to fix it?


Do you have ADHD? Have you ever done any type of psychiatric evaluation with a professional?

I say this because I have ADHD And have had that "just one more thing..." hyperfocus until I'm practically pissing or shitting my pants.

A lot this mental health stuff is re-training yourself to break and avoid bad habits. Talk therapy is really a mental training session where your therapist gives you exercises and tips, then keeps track of your progress. So with that, you need to train yourself to break that habit. If you need someone to help motivate or remind you, ask a friend maybe.

One of the basic ways to start is setting a timer for 20-30 minutes. When that timer goes off - TAKE A BREAK! Doesn't have to be a long one, just get up and do something. Get a drink of water, go look out the window for a few minutes, use the toilet, whatever. Keep doing this. Eventually you will not need the timer and you will start to realize you are hyperfocused and need a break. I'm not perfect and still have hyperfocus stints but they aren't as long or frequent.


Thank you, MT.

I haven't done any professional evaluation.

> setting a timer for 20-30 minutes

This is what I've been using, and it works most of the time, but I still get hyperfocus stints, as you say. I guess I have to keep at it.

Also, a longer break that includes a walk after a few 25-minute chunks is extremely impactful. When I come back from that, I am so much more effective.


> which only makes things worse

Could you explain what problem you feel you're facing exactly. From my perspective I'm envious that you have enough drive that the only issue is you can't stop working, I want that so bad. Obviously i'm missing a key bit of info


Curious to hear what integration you are working on.

I am thinking about making this (1) into an integration also. It is an alternative way to visualize forecasts. It uses the dew point instead of temperature. I currently use a dashboard that shows the site on an iframe within Home Assistant.

Scary stuff.

I’d love to hear your thoughts on LLMs, Jason. How do you use them in your projects? Do they play a role in your workflow at all?


> Just don't rely on centralized for-profit entities, rely on stuff produced by non-profits and foundations, that you know isn't gonna screw you over as soon as they need money

What do you use that fits that philosophy and offers the basic functionality (NAT traversal, Magic DNS, failover relaying) TS provides?


Nebula has NAT traversal and failover relaying I beleve, but not magic dns


This is correct, and the lack of a MagicDNS solution is definitely felt when using Nebula (esp. when switching from Tailscale)


Yggdrasil is great, but AFAIK it doesn't have built-in NAT traversal, so you need at least some publicly reachable nodes.


Yes, from what I understand this is true.


I'm writing a minimal, educational WireGuard implementation to practice networking and cryptography: https://github.com/drio/miniwg. It's still in heavy development, but it's been a great learning experience. I've already been able to create tunnels between two miniwg instances and between miniwg and Jason's WireGuard from the Linux kernel.

Before that I wrote: https://github.com/drio/unboxing, a c/webassembly implementation of Danielle Navarro's beautiful IFS fractals.


For those using WireGuard directly: What techniques do you use to establish connections when behind network infrastructure that blocks all UDP traffic?


SSH tunnel.
