Self-Host Weekly is sponsored by Coder. AI coding agents run on your laptop with your credentials, your network access, and no record of what they touched. Coder is open source and gives every agent a self-hosted workspace you define in Terraform, so your code never leaves the machines you own.

Nasty. I thought this was satire at first and had to read it back.

From the newsletter:

no record of what they touched

From the site:

Centralized model access and policy-controlled environments with full observability and auditability across all AI usage.

We might have some wires crossed somewhere.

The first quote is a dig at their competitors. The second quote is a description of the solution their project provides.

[-] darcmage@lemmy.dbzer0.com 1 points 5 days ago

I'm guessing the blurb was provided by coder and not written by the author. Like someone else said, it could've been worded better.

Seriously. I had to read that five times to see if I was missing sarcasm. What a fucking awful product.

[-] chris@links.openriver.net 14 points 6 days ago

Can you help me understand why this is awful?

[-] Crackhappy@lemmy.world 0 points 6 days ago

If you're serious.... Essentially their AI impersonates you with impunity and keeps no records of what it's done. Its a fucking security nightmare at best.

[-] chris@links.openriver.net 27 points 6 days ago

I was reading this as the solution or safeguard against that problem.

[-] Crackhappy@lemmy.world 24 points 6 days ago

I'm a dumbass and totally misread it. You're right, it's the solution, not the problem. I downvoted myself for being a moron.

[-] LunarLoony@lemmy.sdf.org 7 points 6 days ago

You're not a dumbass, it's just poorly-written.

[-] illusionist@lemmy.zip 4 points 6 days ago

Good catch

I think its time to stop reading this newsletter. Remover the ai marker for projects, and now sponsored by AI. Hmmm.

[-] myrmidex@slrpnk.net 10 points 5 days ago

I can only assume it's because the project's new leadership can't count

This came across as a bit harsh. The blogpost explaining the new naming strategy seemed to make sense to me at the time. Did I miss something?

[-] Appoxo@lemmy.dbzer0.com 3 points 5 days ago

This was obviously meant as a joke...
Sheesh are some overly-sensitive.

Yes it's a bit crass but not overly.
Also in the newsletter

The Jellyfin team took a page from Microsoft's playbook and skipped a major version number (v11) with the release of v12 this week (...)

[-] myrmidex@slrpnk.net 2 points 5 days ago

I did not pick up on the joke, whoops :)

[-] paperd@lemmy.zip -2 points 4 days ago

It has to be funny to be a joke, and this wasn't funny. Seemed like a cheap shot from a Plex fanboi.

[-] Appoxo@lemmy.dbzer0.com 3 points 4 days ago

As always, comedy or humor is not universal.
Andyour opinion ain't a universal thing. Because it's your personal taste. And, well, your opinion.

I lightly exhaled at the quip. Not a knee slapper or anything.

[-] napkin2020@sh.itjust.works 1 points 5 days ago

Cringe. I'm pretty sure they did not read a single line of the changelog.

[-] ikidd@lemmy.dbzer0.com 8 points 6 days ago

Good to see Mullenweg gone, what a shitbird. And complaining he didn't have time to have the resolution reviewed before the vote. Matt, that's the exact sort of bullshit behaviour you would have committed if the shoe were on the other foot. So quit crying and go code or something.

[-] moldy_rice@piefed.keyboardvagabond.com 2 points 5 days ago

Kinda crazy wordpress.org still links to his personal site in their footer.

Maybe someone should submit a PR to fix that.

[-] clb92@feddit.dk 3 points 6 days ago

Gone? On paid vacation for a short while, you mean... But perhaps it's a sign from the board, that he should either get his shit together or he will be out for good at some point, hopefully.

Self-Host Weekly (11 September 2026)

Daniel Brendel released a virtual pet game that's a cross between Minecraft and Tamagotchi

pixelated, adorable virtual pet game (C) 2025 by Daniel Brendel

huh?

aah.

I don't think this is the case here, but now I wonder whether rewriting git history dates to be more spread out and go further back before uploading an AI slop project to github is a viable way to appear more legitimate.
