I'm assuming you're talking about the featured image for the post. What you're seeing is not uncommon in America, especially in the mountains. Roads for traffic in the opposite dir…

It was added in the most recent release: https://manticoresearch.com/blog/manticore-search-27-1-5/

This was annouced a few weeks ago, and goes into effect today.

As someone who has done a lot of downloading/parsing, this is so awesome and impressive to see. One thing to think about, which I also struggle with when it comes to large and comp…

Yesterday, Opus 4.6 cost three credits. You can no longer use 4.6 or 4.5. Opus 4.7 is available today for 7.5 credits per prompt. They have also suspended new signups. After testin…

I'm also not seeing it. Did you have the "Auto-reload" on or off?

Both. Just sent an email. Thanks!

I have been attempting this exact sort of clustering solution for a few years now (on and off as a side project). Do you have source code available, or more detailed explanations/r…

In the photo of him on his last day [0], there's a cassette deck on his desk. That could be something mundane, but I'd like to believe something crazy happens if you yell at it [1]…

I haven't used Claude Code, but I have used Windsurf, Cursor, and Continue. They all do well with their own "rules" files. I essentially understand that as something similar to a S…

I do that. And it's not bad. But it still doesn't treat the input/interface strictly as plain text. I can't remember all the little things that happen, which wouldn't happen in a p…

I have used Joplin daily for years. The only thing I _REALLY_ wish they did was allow you to just store and display notes as plain text. Instead, there is always either markdown or…

For people interested in this sort of thing, I recently published a blog post looking at counts of HTML tags and their attribute values from a 2.9B page Common Crawl dataset. [1] T…

If anyone is interested in an example of how ZSTD's dictionary compression performs against standard gzip, a number of years ago I put together an example using some Common Crawl d…

This is an analysis I put together of the November 2024 Common Crawl HTML/Warc dataset. I counted HTML tag attribute values to identify the most common values per tag+attribute com…
