I recommend trying pi.dev as your agent harness for local models. In my experience it has been the sweet spot of functionality (which you can and should extend with plugins) vs per…

Not 100% sure why this is trending, but anyone here interested in the Code of Cannon Law for the Roman Catholic Church, might also find this of interest: https://github.com/Divinum…

The "issues" described here seem to me to be basically just run-of-the-mill aquisitions considerations. Is anyone out there buying any kind of enterprize-grade hardware in any indu…

Building and maintaining a functional marketplace (e.g. through common-sense anti-trust enforcement) is about more than just optimizing for a specific outcome...

100% agree that decisive anti-trust action is needed. In addition, many of us can (and do) choose to just not participate (to the best of our abilities) in the nonsense from these …

I get it. I run FF as my primary browser (mostly because I don't want to see the internet devolve into a Blink mono-culture). But, I always recommend Brave for less-technical folks…

Been using Zellij for awhile and it is delightful! I am only a moderate terminal user, but I really like having some basic multiplexing features if I need them. My brain just could…

So much this! The internet does not have to be a monolith controlled by the mega-corp/govt flavor-of-the-month. It originally was (and still can be) a network of smaller federated …

Yeah, was thinking that as well. IMHO, compose.yaml is the best balance of convenience and simplicity if you need one (or even "several") instances. You should only get more fancy …

Honestly it kinda feels like they just reimplemented CouchDB/PouchDB.... Not that it would be a bad thing to do that, but really, for small scale stuff Couch works pretty okay. My …

This is the part that impressed me the most! I know other editors "support" this kind of workflow, but opening "remote projects" via SSH is so clean and intuitive in Zed! I love th…

The Russian angle is an interesting one I had not considered! Even the "threat" of an increased US presence in the Arctic would seem to apply some additional pressure on Russia. It…

The pop of Alaska is not the relevant number here. Presumably the vote to transfer Alaska to Russia would have to be at the level of the whole country. (The question of whether a s…

In the historical context I would see "Vox Populi, Vox Dei" as intentionally juxtaposed against the "Divine Right of Kings" (the leading political philosophy in Europe for the last…

Yes! I have never struggled with drug addition, but I have had personal experiences that showed me how sometimes in life "getting through today" takes a higher priority then "fixin…

Not sure if I have just spent too much time in the JS/TS world and so I have forgotten the pain in this area in proper compiled languages, but to me it seems like needing "typed ho…

Do these same concerns still pertain to dev-hosted F-Droid repos? (E.g. I am thinking of how I install Bitwarden from the their own repo: https://mobileapp.bitwarden.com/fdroid/ ) …

Big fan of Graphene! The balance I personally prefer is to use Shelter to create a "work profile" and install Play Services in there along with any apps that must have Play Service…
