Because bumbling into failures is the tactic he chooses to achieve the goals of his donors, not his constituents but the people who have given him the money to get into his position of power in the first place specifically so that he can pretend to be on board with improving the country only to torpedo anything that looks like it might improve people's lives if that improvement means his donors missing out on even $1
I was following along when they initially announced it and while I personally think its an awful idea, it did seem to stem not from a profit motive but an intention to make Wikipedia easier to use and more effective, and when the vast majority of contributors and editors responded to tell Wikipedia that it was an atrocious idea and that they shouldn't do it they listened and scrapped the plan.
My point being, isn't it better as a whole that they're willing to consider new things but will also listen to the feedback they get from their users and maintainers and choose not to implement ideas that are wildly unpopular?
Writing off all of Wikipedia (the most effective tool for collaborative knowledge collection in human history) just because they announced a well intentioned tool addition and then scrapped the plan when they realized it was unpopular and would likely degrade their platform seems short sighted at best imo.
Ive got a reverse proxy config that was available in the Audiobookshelf github documentation, I was mainly struggling to understand how to get all of the parts working together. Thanks for the help
I had considered the VPN route, but i think its enough of a technical hurdle for other people that it would stop my parents and friends from being able/willing to get onto the audiobookshelf server
I had considered not using nginx for precisely those reasons, but like the plex server i want to make it available to my family and friends and so the nginx reverse proxy build seemed to be the most widely applicable and still secure option so I only need to tell them to download audiobookshelf and point it at the correct domain name.
Thank you so much this is very helpful, I'll definitely be taking a run at it with all of this advice in mind this week. When you mention running the whole thing as a single stack does that mean getting all of it running inside a single docker container such that it only takes the 1 docker run command? Is it a requirement to get them able to talk or just a more elegant way to have the entirety of the server running in a singular container instead of spread across several?
I know, and that's on my to-do list, but I wanted to get this up and running at least once before upgrading and potentially having to start from square 1.
This is actually a plot point in Rick Riordans work. If you're not familiar he writes YA novels about kids who are secretly demigod fighting monsters in a modern day setting and the specially mention that one of the telltale signs of demigods is ADHD for almost exactly the reasons you describe
The math fun fact I remember best from college is that Charles Boole invented Boolean algebra for his doctoral thesis and his goal was to create a branch of mathematics that was useless. For those not familiar with boolean algebra it works by using logic gates with 1s and 0s to determine a final 1 or 0 state and is subsequently the basis for all modern digital computing
Yeah, everyone knows the correct pronunciation is Chip-ōl-tay
