    why only llama3.x models are listed on ollama? llama4 no longer wants to support ollama, to better track the adoption?

    I was wondering how to figure out "when you stare at it for too long", then saw "Uses Mac's built-in front facing camera".. Err, I am not sure whether I want to keep camera on for …

    Claude can help you write a lot of okay Python code. Yes, Go is great, but in this MCP case, because of uvx and pypi, as well as kafka python lib, choosing Python is not bad at all…

    Running a mcp tool is expected to be lightweight. Starting a docker container is not impossible but will make this process a bit heavy. Maybe in the future the MCP client can provi…

    most of the MCP tools use Python env (uvx) or Node or even Java to run ANY CODE on your machine, so even the python virtual env is a sandbox but it's to isolate the dependencies no…
