Hi, I'm fiiv, and I'm the creator of Cache Horse. I built it because I wanted an easy plug-n-play solution to caching and simplifying HTTP requests - in particular, on frontend. Fi…

I do this. Ollama makes it very easy - just pull the model you want. The great thing is the ability to test them in the same tasks, there's a huge difference in comparable models. …

Or it could be mostly people fed up with working under shitty conditions.

I remember trying out Skeleton many years ago. Skeleton's Github repo has not seen an update since 2014. A fork of it can be seen here: https://skeleton-framework.github.io/ https:…

Seems to be working for me (firefox, safari, chromium). The SSL cert appears to be valid, expire next year and be issued by Amazon. It could be a block by your country, ISP or poss…

Yes indeed! I'm not surprised there's some difference. One thing I learned doing this is that there's a lot of choices to make when selecting the best icon. For example, some sites…

Whoa, I hadn't thought of a sprite sheet, but that's a great idea actually. It shouldn't be too hard to generate one of these. How many favicons in one sheet are you thinking?

"Blockchain" is like "cloud" as a term – it is ambiguous. It means different things to different people. Not everyone understands what a blockchain is – a lot of people probably ha…

I think the interesting factor here is not political at all. It does not matter if you agree with the sanctions or not. The fact is that clearly Iran sees blockchain tech as a way …

I use a variant of Chromium, the Eloston/Ungoogled Chromium build. I find Chrome just an overall better experience to use. I am kind of a stickler for UI and to me, Brave's and Ope…

I support transparency on this topic but come on. At some point, Facebook was going to block automated simulated click events done via browser extension.
