Intuitively it makes a lot of sense that asking for boilerplate code for Flask (to name something widely used and documented) these AI bots could perform way better than on something for which much less content exists, as with the scenario I described.
Looks interesting, thanks for posting and commenting here!
Does it in any way attempt to find the global minimum, or will it merely enhance the decent to any local minimum of the cost function?
If that's so I should never leave my company. My own situation wasn't directly comparable but I was stuck in a role I ended up in; HR helped me out big time. There core focus was: how do we make everyone excel in what they do, accepting naturally that every individual has its own weaknesses.
You don't have an HR department you can discuss with? Just be fully transparent and present your own perspective, all of it.
If your HR is professional, they will help getting to the bottom if this. Their job ultimately is to optimize the workforce's output. If your manager is jeopardizing your own contribution to the company, he is not doing a good job and HR should make him see that.
One ideal outcome would be an open talk with HR, manager, the trash talker and yourself, in which you all clearly define your personal objectives (what do you want to realize / where in the company do you want to be); could even turn out that these can perfectly co-exist.
Self hosting? Not once you have more than just you and some friends using what you've built, but until then you can just take your time to experiment without taking any cost.
Really cool!
For cycling, some statistics like power and heart rate (if recorded) would be a great addition. Then over time an evolution of the power curve.
Another useful feature in Strava is the fitness/fatigue/form curve.
Did you open source this / are you looking for contributors?
Look into unified kernel images (UKI). That makes you independent on a bootloader; whenever things go wrong (like Windows overwriting your Linux related entries), just use the 'boot from file' function in the UEFI firmware and select your Linux UKI to boot directly from that.
What I feel Powershell does not give: short and simple command names, little syntax, and return values that are interpretable at a glance.
And there's muscle memory of course, that's on me!
oh-my-zsh on Linux is absolutely great, especially with autosuggestions and syntax-highlighting enabled.
On Windows I've settled with Windows Terminal and clink.
I've tried Powershell too but never got used to it. The concept where everything is an object sounds great. But in practice, to me it only is when scripting. When doing interactive work on the command line (which is what I do all day), as a human, nothing beats plain text for me. Enlighten me if this I missed the point of Powershell.
OK thanks for sharing your thoughts! Much appreciated.
For now I reported to my direct manager and the HR manager, asking what HR's follow up actions are going to be (suggesting process review / staff refresher on processes, and reporting to fraud department). I expect they may want to keep this small, but let's see.
Could you consider allowing for ports other than 7878? Would be nice in restricted network environments. Like that of my company; it's allowing only the more common ports to WAN.
If self-hosting is an option for you (that already partly resolves not having to deal with 'shady companies', or at least you can choose a hoster yourself); I've been using Vaultwarden[1] to great satisfaction for about a year now and would recommend it. I don't think it does password history, but as you're in control of the hosting environment you could add that yourself. Must say I don't see the use of password history though - why is that useful?
I'm easily annoyed by either loud fans or fan speed that fluctuate all the time. So something I always run on my Linux laptops:

Python bytecode was shipped in a commercial application; I once took half an hour to figure out what arguments the scripts were accepting (by decompiling the bytecode). This has allowed me to generate some license-free objects to be used externally, an option supposed to be only available at additional cost (an add-on my org didn't purchase). I'm still undecided between "that's what you get when you are ignorant enough to ship confidential code as Python bytecode" and "let's be nice and report an issue". In the meanwhile I've been using this for about 2 years now and never told anyone about it.
vscode actually is very convenient when working on remote machines. You'll run the vscode editor on your own box, but have it access the remote's filesystem over ssh.

Probably overkill for occasional remote file editing (it'll run some server component on the remote machine), but pretty good for more involving remote development work.
