    I use PI ( https://pi.dev ) and ( https://hermes-agent.nousresearch.com/ ) as the main drivers together with deepseek-v4-pro as the main model (~10M/day tokens overall there). Herm…

    On the contrary, they could have stated their points much more bluntly and strongly than they did in the post. I had the same impression upon reading it. Milquetoast perfectly desc…

    This one is customizable in Lisp, and overall pretty neat: https://sawfish.tuxfamily.org/ - I have been happily using it daily for many years now. :-)

    Thanks! Yggdrasil ( https://yggdrasil-network.github.io/ ) should probably in this list too, except that it doesn't need a central beacon node.

    Ha - so cool. I love that it can be easily used to send a stream (the only thing I missed in magic-wormhole). Basically, ls -lah | croc send works. Thanks for this link!

    I thought the new title better but I did not want to change the original (because I had already shared the link with friends), so I just changed when submitting. Should've gone wit…

    The thing is they change/deprecate/retire paid-for services too (in a brutal contrast with the competiton). Two quotes from one of the posts referenced in the submission (from Stev…

    About deprecation: the gold standard is what AWS is doing with SimpleDB: essentially, never. The thing here is that if you run hundreds of services in production - many of which wo…

    git-annex. I love this tool - it allows you to have a single virtual gigantic git repository with your entire life inside it. I basically dump everything there in folders and thank…

    While I personally never used Node-Red to build anything, I am now a fan of this technology for a simple reason: I saw non-developers happily creating & deploying working and reaso…

    I don't think that is a fair assessment of him, even then. At any case, I hired him fairly recently for a security audit and he worked quickly, and was very effective (he found sev…

    This is really cool. Thanks for releasing it to the world! Of course it is as secure as the virtualbox Sanbox is, but some variation of this statement would also be true for Flash,…

    Nonsense - their service is extremely cheap. For the record, I paid their top tier price (actually more than that - they created a custom plan just for us because we had over 50 us…
