But does joblin support anything more than markdown? I'm thinking of using it as a like a store for agent plans, so I can easily edit stuff. Can an agent add rendered HTML, meramai…

Sure, but for simple tasks that require a large context window, aka the typical usecase for 2.0 flash, it's still significantly more expensive.

These flash models keep getting more expensive with every release. Is there an OSS model that's better than 2.0 flash with similar pricing, speed and a 1m context window? Edit: thi…

I mean over in that I don't see a need to use the other models. Codex models are the best but incredibly slow. Claude models are not as good(IMO) but much faster. If gemini can bea…

This is a big jump in most benchmarks.And if it can match other models in coding while having that Google TPM inference speed and the actually native 1m context window, it's going …

https://github.com/FarisZR/knocker Knocker, an http knock based access service for your homelab that works at a reverse proxy or firewall level. It's a more convenient albeit less …

Is there a way to force clients to use a relay? It seems like this is only meant as a fallback, but what if a relayed connection is actually faster (like when direct peering betwee…

Hey I'm the creator of knocker! I actually wanted to write a blog post about it before posting, but OP already did that. If you have any questions just let me know! Will go into mo…

The TTL is for the whitelist. The whitelist rules aren't permanent.

Sorry if i wasn't clear. It isn't more secure, it's just more convenient because it works in every network, without needing to set up a VPN connection on each device. I created thi…

> Why not just run a reverse proxy in front of (whatever service you're trying to protect) and use the API keys there? Because it breaks the clients of most homelab services. That'…

It's a compromise.It's not as secure as using a VPN, but it's way more convenient, since only one device has to have a knocker client on it without needing any sort of VPN. The lik…

Tailscale is not as easy as this. It has to be installed on every device or at the router level. And it will not work on mobile if you already use another VPN.

I mean you are free to not use it, it's for personal use. I was annoyed by all the vpn based solutions and built knocker to have something that works without installing it on each …

I mean it's just using firewalld. You can't inspect the rules. For me it's simple enough that it shouldn't be a big security issue, but I understand and that's why I wrote that in …

I use tailscale for this. But I can't have two vps running at the same time on android, nor do I want to install tailscale on every device I own. I created knocker exactly for this…

Finally! Pixel hardware is a joke, the pixel 10 pro has the performance of a three year old phone, with battery life worse than the iPhone Air (according to shortcircut/ltt tests).…

Did they make human voices sound robotic on purpose? Is that some kind of Ai fingerprinting? It's way too obvious

The phone is just in general sluggish, but video calls and usage on cellular are a catastrophe, it just turns into a hot potato.

Tool use and sycophancy are still big issues in gemini 2.5 models.

I'm sorry I absolutely don't agree. This model is on a whole other level. It's not even close. https://twitter.com/fareszr/status/1960436757822103721
