Yep. LinkedIn is pretty much the only social network out there where the average person has a shot at a little reach for their posts. Even if it’s just past and present colleagues and various acquaintances, I actually have an audience of pe

Yes, MCP is an API. Previously, it was an API with a weird stateful standard; now it is essentially a bog-standard stateless JSON-RPC API with conventions for tool discovery, long-running tasks and multi-round-trip requests If you wrote you

I take your point - no doubt I approached this in a very naive way. That said, we did collaborate on it - at the very least I needed to learn his address before sending. Neither of us have ever sent or received a package in Uganda. It was a

~$200 doesn't go as far as you'd expect for good used laptop, even in Uganda. We did look into our options. However, there's definitely a sunk cost aspect to the operation. After the first failure to send it through Australia

I have a feeling that a big risk of using AI all the time is that our own neurological capacity starts to dwindle. Just as many people leading sedentary lifestyles have to make a deliberate effort to exercise, because inactivity is really b

I still use it and find it helpful. My OpenClaw instance uses an Obsidian project as its memory. Mainly, it's just my main day-to-day LLM that I access via WhatsApp, but instead of the memory being locked away with a specific vendor, i
