Where are you seeing this write up?

This is exactly what I wanted, love that the phone app has a native UI for agents like Pi instead of relying only on terminal renderers.

I think this is a neat idea. Is there a way to self-host the web app interface?

None yet. Any discoveries made with a possible impact risk would end up on the NEO Confirmation Page for follow up. As soon as an observation arc is long enough and gets a provisio…

The models only output text. Tool calls are nothing more than specially formatted text which gets parsed and interpreted by the inference server (or some other driver) into somethi…

Is this related to Cloudflare? I'm getting cf-mitigated: challenge on openai API requests. https://www.cloudflarestatus.com/ https://status.openai.com/

I humbly post this little widget to help your team decide if some functionality warrants being a separate service or not: https://mulch.dev/service-scorecard/

Celery is great and awful at the same time. In particular, because it is many Python folks' first introduction to distributed task processing and all the things that can go wrong w…

I also started my career with Django using 0.96 in college and 1.1/1.2 with my first industry jobs. It was a really empowering framework and it is surprising to me that I still pic…

I've been liking pdm as opposed to poetry, as poetry uses some non-standard syntax in the pyproject.toml file. I had a lot of trouble getting hatch environments to handle changes t…

"Type ahead" or "autocomplete" is absolutely a different type of problem, and often simpler. This generally falls into the use case where the searcher already knows the specific it…

Broad full text search is incredibly hard to do well. I've had to build, maintain, and improve multiple search systems. The difficulty is largely dependent on the context of the ty…

The only purchase I've made on Wish was a similarly "too good to be true" set of flash drives. When I received them I tested them out on a linux live image and sure enough they wer…

Self-promoting a little utility I wrote that helps guide teams on whether your service boundary is a good idea: https://mulch.dev/service-scorecard/ The service scorecard asks a bu…

I was hoping somebody would make this.

I humbly offer my service scorecard as a tool to try to gauge whether a piece of functionality deserves an independent service: https://mulch.dev/service-scorecard/

The interaction is not the worse thing about npm audit. The security model of the tool has a big hole depending on how you use it: https://mulch.dev/blog/CVE-2020-5252-python-safet…

I know this is now an old thread, but just seeing it I feel it's worth responding. It is absolutely possible to be earnest and sincere in communicating real feelings and conflict w…

The nasty pretend exchanges between coworkers on this page is a really depressing way to highlight this tool: https://www.qt.io/design

The comments here on HN seem really knee-jerk. Some people like to claim no one is made to feel erased or reminded of their otherness when they hear this terminology. Some people s…

Here is PyUp (safety) response: https://pyup.io/posts/patched-vulnerability/

Really astounding to see them publish this article today. I have a CVE that's about to go live regarding auditing tools like this one. I contacted Snyk a week ago to point out that…

What video codecs do you support as inputs?

I've found that methods like this don't actually help me avoid procrastinating. The key for me is to remove the psychological barriers to starting a particular task. I think Gettin…

Wasn't there another company or two that just did specifically this?
