🏕️ my adventures in self-hosting: day 357 (big picture edition) 🖼️
a blog post in which I discuss my big #selfhosting plans for Q1 and Q2 of 2026... involving a major #PeerTube migration.
as I wrote in the post, if you're a sysadmin based in Paris and you could help me with this task, I could offer you in exchange a professional photo shoot for you and your family 🤗

@mala awww grazie Davide! 🥰 Yes next Wednesday December 17th will mark one year of self-hosting for me (getting a VPS and installing YunoHost). I can't believe it's already been a year... and I have so much more to learn...

@John_Livingston OMG John, you're so kind!
And OF COURSE the photoshoot could be for a dog. I've been following your adventures since day 1 and your puppy is absolutely adorable! It would be a great honor 🥰
The migration is not urgent at all, it can wait till January. Keep me posted 😊

@julian@activitypub.space I actually just addressed something close to this in a reply up the thread—might be worth a read!

@ddelemeny@mastodon.xyz @silverpill@mitra.social I relate to the immersion argument, and I think it's part of why I avoided machine translation for so long—not out of principle, but because the output wasn't worth learning from. Older MT between Korean and English produced something closer to a word-by-word skeleton than actual language. You couldn't look at it and think: oh, that's how a native speaker would put it. It was more like a scaffold you had to tear down before building anything.
LLMs are different enough that I've had to revise that instinct. The output is often genuinely idiomatic, and when I read a phrase that lands exactly right, there's a recognition that functions a lot like learning—the same feeling as encountering a sentence in a book and thinking: I'll remember that. I do find myself absorbing expressions that way, probably more than I would have expected.
That said, I think your point holds at the edges. For shorter writing I still work without assistance, partly for practical reasons and partly because I notice the difference when I don't. So I suspect I'm arriving at something similar to what you're describing, just from the other direction—using the tool for longer texts while trying to keep the muscle from atrophying entirely on shorter ones.
The dynamic you mention with German and Korean is interesting too. Korean was my concern about English; I imagine the lack of immersion shapes the experience in ways that are hard to compensate for with tools alone.

You forgot to drink your water again, didn't you, you dry creaky old husk. Drink some now to feel the life flow back into your withered corpse and revitalise you. The water must flow!
