I’m going to provide an overview of my home server. It’s main use cases are image storage, ebook tracking, git hosting, openclaw, and other file storage. The hardware layer is composed of a laptop and a usb C hdd raid enclosure. The laptop has an i5-8500U,16 GiB of ram, and 256 GiB of storage. The USB C is technically a usb 2.0, the usb 3.0 needs to be used to power the laptop. The usb 2.0 has a max bandwidth of 60 MiB per second. The HDD drives are 5400 RPM. The drives are setup in raid 1. The drives can sustain at 180 MiB read, and spike up to 6GiB/S reading. The USB 2.0 does bottleneck the drives, but for my use cases thus far it hasn’t been a problem. My internet plan max upload is 30 MiB per second, so if I’m not at home that’s the real bottleneck. ...

Link Backend I did most/all of the backend. I setup NestJS to run on an aws lambda. ...

I started the jacksnake over christmas break when I discovered Battlesnake! It’s a game where you write an AI snake and compete against other AI snakes. Basics The first step was to make the snake move towards the food. I used a simple breadth first search to find the shortest path to the food. This worked well, but the snake still killed itself because it would use too much space. The snake didn’t know to stay along the border or fold into itself. It also chased food, even when it had full or nearly full health!. ...
