how do you manage your server?

I usually connect with my server via ssh in a terminal and run basic commands. What’s a better, more efficient and modern way of doing that? Especially considering ai and documentation along the way? I wonder if there’s a better approach than “connect from remote and act local”. Is there a method to “code local and push to remote”?

I use a fedora server with podman, caddyfile and vi.

Hermes + maybe $5-10 worth of tokens if I need more compute than ollama can provide (on a busy month). Running everything in a nice podlet setup and have reduced maintenance down to trivial levels. Config gets occasionally shipped to GitHub

In theory I might lose the ui if it bricked itself but in reality that doesn’t happen.

I looked that up and am astonished that you let an agent range free on your server?!

I bet you I do less work and have a more efficient and locked down network, file permissions, fully rootless, updated on the hour, 100% in code, and observable setup than 98% of you just running sudo apt upgrade and praying. But yeah, my little agent working in an nemoclaw sandbox is going to go rogue and destroy my server somehow and I definitely believe the AI hype bros that are definitely “accidentally “ are hacking orgs and not going to end the human race🙄

Man, the ignorance and prejudice over how llm work is insane.

It’s not about “going rogue”. It’s about making mistakes. It’s not a hypothetical. It has happened many times to people who were as confident as you seem to be with their setup. There’s a proverb in my language that roughly translates to “some learn by looking at others, while some need to experience it by themselves”. Maybe you’re in the latter category.
