Looking for MEGAPIONET host #98

I am developing a shitposting social network exclusively for members of the great Apionet. I need a host for my (definitely not spaghetti) code. Preferably a Raspberry Pi, but anything that has 24/7 uptime, a constant connection to the internet and supports Python 3.x.x works. To the Apionet!

I can give you an account on a Raspberry Pi or one of various osmarks.net servers/VPSes. Please contact me at osmarks@protonmail.com to discuss.

i have completely forgotten this because ★procrastination★. i wish i had seen this earlier because at the time i did actually have motivation for that project, and now i do not.

welp, it is what it is.

hey if you ever need it u can use my server

i can also help u with development

as long as it doesnt use go

what's wrong with go?

i cannot use go due to circumstances. so i would likely be fine with such a server

go does not like non-sse2 processors

ok cool

out of interest what kind of circumstances allow you to run python but not go?

skill issues.

in all honesty the main programming languages i use ever are python and lua (specifically the pico-8 dialect)

idk, but whenever i run go stuff it runs into illegal instruction errors, even when running the go compiler. whereas python has no issues (probably bc it is interpreted and its compiled for non-sse2 processors)

Go is actually bad due to general inexpressiveness.

if err != nil {

This is an example of inexpressiveness, yes.

python is very fun. and i would also gladly submit my dev skill if u need them

that would be nice; personally the issue for me is not that i cannot make stuff in python, it's that i am not very productive and as a single person that directly translates to not much progress being made on a project

given more than one person, the productivity at any one time should either be zero, equal to the productivity of one person or equal to the productivity of two people, which is one extra arguably better option than if you only had one person working on it

in non-bloated talk, yeah, working with other people is more productive and sometimes even nice

nice, so are we gonna do this? and if so, what forge should we use? (i vote sourcehut, but if y'all don't want to deal with git-send-email, we can use smith else)

i personally have only ever used github, but it may be time to try something else. i'll look into sourcehut

it would appear that hosting projects on sourcehut requires payment.

yeah i really don't know anything outside of github. this is embarassing :/

In some cases, adding more people can actually reduce productivity due to coordination overhead. I'm not sure if that's likely at small scales, but still.

very good point

at a certain team scale working without dedicated coordinators is essentially impossible

two or three folx on a small, non-priority project is great, i've done it before

i have essentially never worked with other people on a software project. this is likely due to the fact that i am a megalomaniac.
