I write code and play games and stuff. My old username from reddit and HN was already taken and I couldn’t think of anything else I wanted to be called so I just picked some random characters like this:
>>> import random
>>> ''.join([random.choice("abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz0123456789") for x in range(5)])
'e0qdk'
My avatar is a quick doodle made in KolourPaint. I might replace it later. Maybe.

Adding a summary to this: the article has some history about OpenOffice (which is a zombie project that was essentially replaced by LibreOffice after Oracle bought Sun) followed by a description of patterns of weird commit history recently (e.g. regular changes that are entirely or almost entirely just fiddling with whitespace), and a request to email the Apache foundation to ask them to make it clear that the project is dead.
I ran my own email server about 10-ish years ago for a while on a Linode using Postfix and Dovecot similar to what others have mentioned. Took some effort to prevent GMail from just flagging everything I sent as spam, but I was eventually able to do it. I remember having to configure something particular with DNS records. (An SPF TXT record, probably?)
I didn’t end up using it very much and shut it down after a couple years, but it was a good exercise and I learned a lot from doing it.
It’s not clear to me either on exactly what hardware is required for the reference implementation, but there’s a bunch of discussion about getting it to work with llama.cpp in the HN thread, so it might be possible soon (or maybe already is?) to run it on the CPU if you’re willing to wait longer for it to process.
Let us know how it goes!
