The scary thing about IoT is that it's impossible to know what is being transmitted back to servers once a device is connected to an outside network (unless, of course, the network protocol doesn't allow external egress, such as Z

I use Home Assistant to gather info about my house. I use Zigbee devices exclusively (with the exception of a Z-wave device that was not available in a Zigbee flavor). Why? Because that protocol allows me to talk to the device, but the d

I actually wrote my own scripting language (Tang... complete with JIT compilation on x86_64 with a bytecode fallback) so that I could have flexible, familiar syntax (cross of C++ and Python) but without the danger of random imports. I buil

I hate modern web development. I was a Drupal developer back in the day, and I loved its templating system (the fact that HTML was assembled on the back end) and it was so powerful! It allowed for so much customization without leaking the

To the author: I'm sorry that your post is flagged and now mostly hidden unless someone actively tries to read it. I'm actually curious about a few things. 1. How much total did you spend (and with which provider)? I'm curio

Why was the comment from the Author flagged? I found it helpful. Is it because it's a summary? Because I also found it helpful as I went through the actual link. Is it because of the low Karma? Because mine's not that high, e

Don't tell this person about translation plugins. They change everything! The end user never reads what the website actually served!

Which part of the mobile software infrastructure are you referring to? Do you mean, for example, Jellyfin, which reaches out to my home server and is for my personal use? Because that works. Or do you mean why don't we just write our

3d print models, parametrically generated. Blender can run Python... with the app open or headless. My Blender skills are nigh useless. I know how to describe what I want mathematically with variables/constraints, but I don't kno

Very true. I suppose it's not worth it to me. I've never had an Instagram account, and never used Instagram itself. I guess I don't need it in my life.

What do you mean by my "existing account"? I didn't have an instagram account before today. But, as a general rule, I keep all of my accounts separate. There's too many horror stories of a person getting locked out of

I wouldn't know. I only know what it's like to (1) set up an account of any type, which usually requires quite a bit of initial activity, followed later by (2) decreased ongoing maintenance. But, whatever. They set up an automat

Well, I guess I'm forever lost as a user, since I'm banned for doing the very thing that they encourage... sharing my original content. I disagree, though, that it's spam behavior. It's "well, it's time to set

That's great! I see it as a lot of people learning about a lot of cool stuff that interests them. Just because AI was used doesn't mean that it wasn't valuable to that person as an experience, and that it's not also val

Yes, that sounds like something that a harness would do internally, but not expose. My own project will do something similar for spinning off worker agents. You could expose it, however, by (1) a custom MCP server that assembles and provi

In the future, some LLM will incorporate this into their side-hustle suggestions. :)

In our company, Claude keeps trying to run terraform commands (another team member's experience). Thankfully, it's in a locked-down environment, but it still keeps trying, even if you tell it not to. In development, it will somet

I am writing my own harness, and I would love to hear more about what you have in mind. Can you give an example of your use case?

With 128 GB strix halo, you can't do as big of a model as you would think. You can do larger than having a single graphics card, of course, but that 128 gigs cannot all be dedicated to the model. Remember, the context alone is usually

There are so many variables here. My question is how much do you have to invest into getting it done right? Local has come a long way, but it is still limited and slow. And while there are some people who have done stuff like this, the fiel

This resonates with me, but what helped was to come to a realization. I love coding. I love low level coding. But I haven't written any code in the last 6 months, roughly. But I don't feel empty or dissatisfied at all. My realizat

Nice. I have a friend who is a young accountant. I have tried to get him to consider AI, but he claims that they tried it and it's not that good. I've tried to get him to understand that AI has improved dramatically in the last

I'm in the same boat. I have 2 old servers that I let get "too" old, and now I'm afraid to touch them to update them. However, with some of the shenanigans that the Linux distributions are pulling around age verificati

In anyone in the future is reading this, I ended up vibe-coding a chrome plugin to let me pull the page info as a MCP call. It's working (and I successfully can extract data) using Qwen 3.6 locally (GMKTec EVO-X2, 128GiB RAM).

Thank you for your reply, but I haven't paid for Claude, and I don't plan to with my other subscriptions. Plus, I'm trying to have this be part of my headless automation with my own, local llms. If it weren't hacked toge
