    I have older versions of litellm installed on my system - it appears to be a dependency for aider-chat (at least on NixOS)

    Protothreads are amazing, but really expose you to a lot of subtle bugs. I would not recommend them for any new projects if something like async rust or an RTOS are options.

    I switched to a candy-bar style dumb phone for a month and did something similar. My list was pretty much the same as the one in the article with a few small changes. The most jarr…

    Yes you're right. I'd assumed that tokio was used internally in the UI but from a cursory read it doesn't seem to be the case.

    I wish remote build/deploy for Raspberry Pi was in a better state - it seems like a perfect fit for NixOS. I've got x86 servers running NixOS that are deployed using Colmena, but i…
