The recent releases of OpenClaw have made running it on docker/podman much easier. I've been running it on a stand alone Lenovo Thinkcentre running inside docker. For my needs the setup works well. There are some limitations like

Looks great. Image/file > Base64 and the inverse could be a useful addition.

I was/am interested in a Rivian R1T but the fast charging network is probably the biggest variable holding me back. Rich Rebuilds did a great video where he experienced first-hand what a PITA it is to travel long stretches in one ( htt

I grew up in rural Maine and always called 10-pin bowling "TV bowling" because I had never actually seen one of the large bowling balls. I didn't play my first non-candlepin round until my mid 20's. I still prefer candle

I live in New England and am an avid fisherman. Due to our industrial past, I believe just about every single river in the state I reside is polluted either by PCB's or lead to the point you cannot safely consume fish regularly. It is

Yes, I make considerably more than I did as a IC engineer but I have significantly more stress/risk.

There is no substance to this post, it is clickbait. Most of the listed languages wouldn't even be considered. Most of the other "languages" are irrelevant in terms of building a platform. Ex: SQL, Bash, Powershell, Matlab.

I combined a series of state collected freshwater bio/fisheries data into a web app that maps it out per lake. I use it for discovering and targeting specific fish species within a given area (town/county). I used it with much suc

I've been working on a side project that aggregates state gov't survey data on lakes/ponds (currently just one state) that includes water quality, depth, size, fish species, invasive plants, etc and allows me to search it and

I've been pretty happy with MikroTik routers. I have an extra HapAC2, if you cover shipping it is all yours (I'm based in US).

We use AWS ElasticBeanstalk with Docker images for our app infrastructure and it has served us well. I think it ends up being similar in that it pushes docker images to EC2 containers. It may not be cutting edge but affords us all the conv

If you were coming from a different background (ex: manual labor / blue collar) and it would be a step-up I would consider it. For you, no matter how you slice it, this will be a step down and even if you were to get parity with your c

I have a 40 acre plot in Maine and ordered a "camp" hand built by Amish craftsmen using decent timber for 12K delivered. Granted, I have to build out the interior but when all is done I'll be into it for < 25K. https:&#x2

Coincidentally I just finished reading Biohazard by Ken Alibeck and while old news (circa 1999) it left me with no doubt that there are still stockpiles of bioweapons grade smallpox in military labs. This news is strangely reassuring given

I've seen plenty of the ultra-hyped sales culture in LA and SF. Saying it is purely an East Coast phenomenon is completely misinformed.

by dadro 10y ago
"It's still very common on the east coast." What is that supposed to mean? I could use purely anecdotal experiences and make the same remark about the West Coat.

I don't see the connection either. Warby Parker provides an experience that differs from their competition (luxottica) and happens to be significantly cheaper. How is Vastrm any different than a company like BlankLabel?

I'd like to read what specifically lead them to categorize Backbone.js under "hold". They wrote about the various technologies that are recommended but don't provide much of a narrative for any of the "holds".
