TL;DR: gh config set telemetry disabled

iNaturalist would agree with you; they explicitly say[1] it's not meant to be the primary source for your photos. Users generally fall into a couple broad camps: 1. Mostly use the …

Points are rendered server-side, backed by Elasticsearch, and served as PNG tiles for each zoom level. Individual markers are only rendered for small sets. Some of the relevant sou…

Both iNaturalist and Observation.org publish observation data to GBIF: https://www.gbif.org/dataset/50c9509d-22c7-4a22-a47d-8c48425... https://www.gbif.org/dataset/8a863029-f435-44…

IMO it's best-in-class. The next best thing might be google's speciesnet: https://github.com/google/cameratrapai

It is a gem. There are all kinds of fun location/organism-specific tools you can put together with the public read-only data, and owlsnearme is a good example of that. I just used …

I've wanted to do something similar, but unfortunately their CV model isn't public and can't be used through their API.

It's not framed exactly the same way, but I think this article is relevant: https://siddhantkhare.com/writing/ai-fatigue-is-real Discussion: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=46…

Yeah, I hear you. I almost started using a purely text-based todo workflow for those same reasons, but it was hard to give up some web UI features, like easily switching between li…

The linuxserver.io image for Nextcloud requires considerably less babysitting for upgrades: https://docs.linuxserver.io/images/docker-nextcloud As long as you only upgrade one majo…

"You're absolutely right!"

Check if your router has an option to add custom DNS entries. If you're using OpenWRT, for example, it's already running dnsmasq, which can do split DNS relatively easily: https://…

The article mentions Vikunja as an alternative to Nextcloud Tasks, and I can give it a solid recommendation as well. I wanted a self-hosted task management app with some lightweigh…

This was a fun read, and well written. Thanks for sharing! Adding/improving support for some niche piece of hardware sounds like an ideal way to get started with kernel development…

I also assumed those were going to be links, but after a second of confusion I really liked the side pane with animations. It adds a lot to the article and it's more pleasant than …

Other readers' cursors. You can turn that off with the 'quiet mode' toggle in the upper right.

This was such a delightful read, and I thoroughly agree with it. Favorite quote: "attempting to apply its childlike logic to realistic dynamics can only lead to cognitive dissonanc…

Could you elaborate a bit? Do you think said "GitHub culture" is just because it's the largest platform, or more intrinsic qualities of the platform? Anecdotally I see many of the …

For what it's worth: Thank you for your work on SQLAlchemy and Alembic! On large projects like those, what ratio of community interactions would you say are angry/demanding vs supp…

At the end of the article, there's a link to a script[1] that does the steps covered in the article. That got me thinking: how do other self-hosters/homelabbers here go about autom…

That was a fun read. Thanks for sharing!

Empires of the Undergrowth is probably what you're loiking for!

I'm also a big fan of LocalSend! I've tried several tools in the category of "easy cross-platform file/text sharing over LAN," and LocalSend really stood out as the most polished o…
