    We still maintain phpbb forums, but activity on them is close to nil when compared to the Discord server. This is for a MUD client too, not exactly a mainstream audience!

    The hard part, I heard, was closing a UK company!

    They can't convince others, so I shopped around until I found a willing bank. This is due to introduced KYC requirements and the harsh penalties associated with them - so banks are…

    Before Europe gets lumped in as one country, founding a company in Netherlands and Sweden, speaking from personal experience, is a breeze. Although Sweden is a bit strange in the f…

    How can you practically use this in software if you're to deploy this to users? Asking a user to create and enter their own API key is a bar too high for good UX.

    The release post is AI-written with little human oversight and it shows.

    Claude is also surprisingly good at analyzing system issues on a Linux system and solving them!

    The question is where do you go?

    I find that fascinating as well! I hope tech will give us the answer in our lifetimes.

    I had the same discussion with the color of a river in Albania with my wife. The test says my boundary is a bluer than 85% of the pop - sounds about right!

    Appreciate the honesty from the team. At the same time, personally I find prioritizing quality over quantity of output to be a better personal strategy. Ten partially buggy feature…

    I'm dissatisfied about the TAP leak as well! I was affected, and like you, didn't even receive a notification - nevermind compensation for having leaked my personal data to the dar…

    What would mathematics have to do with internal company politics, a soft/people skill demanding job?

    https://github.com/patrickjaja/claude-desktop-bin seems to be trying hard to but I haven't tried it.

    Only on macOS though? This doesn't seem to work on Linux. Neither does Claude Cowork, not officially.

    Can it work with comments in sheets as well? When I looked into it, that seemed like a limitation.

    US should first implement a national identifier that can be used for healthcare purposes before implementing age verification, that would be a lot more helpful.

    Anyone here familiar with the details of GendBuntu[1], the Ubuntu distro used by the French Gendarmerie? I'd love to hear what is working and what isn't on the ground. [1] - https:…

    If someone is willing to put in the work in governance, FOSS projects would be willing to fund it - at least Mudlet would be. We get income from Patreon to cover the costs.

    I'm in Europe and ended up creating an organization since I have my own company, but they messed up the verification of one of the legitimate documents, and there was no way to rea…

    A year ago I used Azure Trusted Signing to codesign FOSS software that I distribute for Windows. It was the cheapest way to give away free software on that platform. A couple of mo…

    I've been doing something similar by letting Claude run in a Virtualbox VM. It's easy to use, no issues with observability, and the attack & damage surface is far less of an issue.…

    I'm not one to believe the Silicon Valley hype usually (GPT-2 being too dangerous to release, AI giving us UBI, and so on), but having run Claude Opus 4.6 against my codebase (a MU…

    LM Playground, not LM Studio.
