I use PI ( https://pi.dev ) and ( https://hermes-agent.nousresearch.com/ ) as the main drivers together with deepseek-v4-pro as the main model (~10M/day tokens overall there). Hermes basically rules my pers

On the contrary, they could have stated their points much more bluntly and strongly than they did in the post. I had the same impression upon reading it. Milquetoast perfectly describes it, I am happy to see less common words used around

This is so cool - thank you! I have a very (ahem) useful purpose for this: I use a command line application that calls back to a browser during authentication and that alone prevented me from doing what I needed/wanted from an ssh term

This one is customizable in Lisp, and overall pretty neat: https://sawfish.tuxfamily.org/ - I have been happily using it daily for many years now. :-)

Thanks! Yggdrasil ( https://yggdrasil-network.github.io/ ) should probably in this list too, except that it doesn't need a central beacon node.

Ha - so cool. I love that it can be easily used to send a stream (the only thing I missed in magic-wormhole). Basically, ls -lah | croc send works. Thanks for this link!

I thought the new title better but I did not want to change the original (because I had already shared the link with friends), so I just changed when submitting. Should've gone with the original...

The thing is they change/deprecate/retire paid-for services too (in a brutal contrast with the competiton). Two quotes from one of the posts referenced in the submission (from Steve Yegge): ...I know I haven’t gone into a lot of

About deprecation: the gold standard is what AWS is doing with SimpleDB: essentially, never. The thing here is that if you run hundreds of services in production - many of which work smoothly and you don't need to touch often, you will

git-annex. I love this tool - it allows you to have a single virtual gigantic git repository with your entire life inside it. I basically dump everything there in folders and thanks to git-annex it is still manageable. https://

While I personally never used Node-Red to build anything, I am now a fan of this technology for a simple reason: I saw non-developers happily creating & deploying working and reasonable-quality solutions with it (more than I can say abo

Exactly! In the past I asked high level/generic questions and often got very little out of it. Shallow responses or no responses at all in some cases. Nowadays I send the email I will paste below to every new hire after a couple of mon

I don't think that is a fair assessment of him, even then. At any case, I hired him fairly recently for a security audit and he worked quickly, and was very effective (he found several important vulnerabilities and reported them in a c

This is really cool. Thanks for releasing it to the world! Of course it is as secure as the virtualbox Sanbox is, but some variation of this statement would also be true for Flash, for Java and a host of other technologies that despite wh

Nonsense - their service is extremely cheap. For the record, I paid their top tier price (actually more than that - they created a custom plan just for us because we had over 50 users) happily for several months (and would have paid 2x mo

What works for me is: a) Making the candidate interested - I want them to be really interested in being hired, to ensure he will give his best shot (this is much easier when hiring with a specific spot in mind, which is not always the case)

By resources I meant wall-time, mostly - what I am optimizing for (I move >200GB zfs snapshots around a lot..). I did not pay attention to memory, specifically - in that light I updated the side note. What else did you find odd/wrong?

In the tests I did (including compression of an entire filesystem image), xz always compresses better for the same effort (amount of time). One example (using the standard tools, not the multithreaded ones): igorhvr:tmp/ $ ls -la co_201

You are right. The .pdf version of the user manual of pigz (at http://zlib.net/pigz/pigz.pdf ) has a few details (the bottom of this answers your question): "Pigz compresses using threads to make use of multiple processors and cores. The
