Solod v0.2: Networking, new targets, friendlier interop

Solod (So) v0.2 is a system-level language with Go syntax that compiles to C with zero runtime. This release adds a net package supporting TCP, UDP, and Unix domain sockets with a Go-like API, including deadlines for single-threaded servers. New compilation targets include 32-bit platforms, WebAssembly (WASI), and freestanding/bare-metal mode. C interop improvements include volatile, thread_local, and packed attribute directives, named C numeric types, Go-style type aliases, and third-party package support. The stdlib gains net/netip, encoding/hex, and a UUID package. Concurrency support is planned for v0.3.

Self-Host Weekly (26 June 2026)

A weekly self-hosting newsletter covering ATProto as a decentralized identity and data ownership stack, Podman 6.0 release, Iroh P2P protocol v1.0, the Steam Machine launch with SteamOS availability, and a spotlight on Ignis — a self-hosted web app for Obsidian vaults deployable via Docker Compose. Also includes a curated list of self-hosting videos, a CLI tip on z-prefixed commands for gzip files, and various new/updated self-hosted software projects.

4 tools I install on every new home server before setting up anything else

A personal setup guide covering four tools installed on every new home server: Dockhand for Docker container management (preferred over Portainer for its update management and cleaner UI), Beszel for lightweight hardware monitoring across multiple servers, Glance as a resource-efficient dashboard alternative to Homarr, and Tailscale for simple remote access without the complexity of reverse proxies. The author emphasizes resource constraints on low-end SBCs and old laptops, favoring tools that use 20–30 MB over heavier alternatives.

Network-wide ad blocking with a Raspberry Pi Zero is easier than you think, but the Wi-Fi problem is real

Running Pi-hole on a Raspberry Pi Zero is one of the easiest ways to set up network-wide ad blocking at home. The board is cheap, low-power, and requires minimal setup — flash an image, install Pi-hole, and point your router's DNS at it. However, the Pi Zero lacks built-in Ethernet, meaning DNS runs over Wi-Fi unless you add a USB Ethernet dongle and adapter, which undermines the device's simplicity and reliability. MicroSD storage is another long-term concern. The Pi Zero is a great entry point for learning DNS filtering, but once it becomes core household infrastructure, upgrading to a Pi 4, mini PC, or LXC container on existing hardware offers better reliability, real Ethernet, and more robust storage.

My Jellyfin anime collection finally feels organized, and Shoko did all the work

Shoko Server solves the notorious anime metadata problem in Jellyfin by using file hashing instead of relying on inconsistent file names. It matches files against AniDB to pull correct titles, artwork, cast info, and synopses, and groups related franchise entries (seasons, OVAs, movies) under a single listing. The setup requires connecting to AniDB, creating a dump key, installing the Shokofin plugin, and waiting for a library scan — which can be lengthy for large collections. Older titles may still need manual metadata intervention, and Shoko adds another service to maintain. Despite these caveats, the author considers it well worth the effort for serious anime collectors.

Netris raises $15M Series A from a16z to help AI neoclouds go live faster

Netris, a network automation startup, has raised $15M in a Series A round led by Andreessen Horowitz. The company provides hardware-accelerated network automation software that runs on switches, helping AI neocloud operators reduce time-to-market by automating setup, configuration, and multi-tenancy. Unlike traditional SDN, Netris uses deterministic algorithms rather than AI to handle the high-throughput demands of GPU clusters. The platform is vendor-agnostic and already deployed across 35+ GPU clusters totaling roughly one million GPUs, with customers including Lightning AI, Foxconn, and HPE. Nvidia has also recommended Netris to its customers. The funding will be used to hire engineers and sales staff, expand hardware vendor support, and enhance its automation algorithms.
