I guess this unfortunately means HuggingFace won't be "the first company to go public with an emoji instead of the three-letter ticker" as the cofounders originally intended: "When we started the company, a running j

This is why the "reduce thinking" approach of BottleCapAI is both quite interesting and very useful in practice: https://huggingface.co/bottlecapai/ThinkingCap-Qwen3.6-27B

I built a multi-agent alternative with Stream Deck and cmux/orca and it works pretty well -- particularly when you pair it with CodexBar and can easily see your token spend across multiple subscriptions. It is all open source https:&#

By far the most impactful product of the Apretus project are the people. To quote a memorable line from Dominique Paul ( https://www.thisiscrispin.com/ ): > What most people miss IMO is that this is not a team who is doing

You are right, I am not sure why I did not realize Python is the whole point of the image. This is indeed much faster and easier.

It's pretty rough to learn I sound like Claude. Will need to do something about it then. (For what it's worth I did write the message above manually but I understand why no one would believe that now. At least I did not call netca

Yes, a very minimal image indeed. Had it been a custom image, curl would be one of the first things I would make sure it contains :)

Totally! I was really just trying to see if intra-container connectivity works, and this ended up being a very quick way of doing so. (The alternative being building and deploying a new image, which would likely take significantly longer.)

That is indeed a solid pushback! :) For what its worth, this container used `python:3.12.2-slim-bookworm` and I really would not expect that sort of an image to bundle `curl` -- even if it is intended for production.

I ran into this while checking connectivity between containers on an internal Docker network where the image had neither curl nor wget. The main surprise was that Bash has /dev/tcp which lets you do the equivalent of an HTTP reque

I have also had positive experience with doing this multiple times via multiple model families, and then to recursively have the fixes reviewed too. It's called review-anvil and does find significant amount of problems that might pop u

Storing Claude Code API keys in KeePassXC instead of plaintext config(mareksuppa.com)

Author here. I wrote this after setting up Claude Code with MiniMax and Z.AI and realizing their docs all tell you to paste API keys into settings.json in plaintext -- which is risky given that Claude Code has been known to read .env files

It really seems the primary benefit of MCP servers was to force companies to establish some externally exposed APIs if/when they did not have them.

To be fair, it's not like he did not read a single line of code that ended up being generated.

This (multiple major outages a day) has unfortunately been happening for quite a while now -- on the 2nd of February, 2026 for instance. The GitHub Status Page does not visualize these very well but you can see them parsed out and aggregate

Do you normally run Opus by default? It seems the Max subscription should let you run Sonnet in an uninterrupted way, so it was surprising to read.
