    Why do you want to make it easier for AI agents to subsume your work?

    It was at the time. Now it’s loading fine. In the 403 screen it specifically called out iCloud privacy.

    Blocking Apple iCloud privacy is pretty extreme.

    If you’re here next year for the “honest retrospective”, it’s a deal.

    Not sure 600,000 commits by one person in a year, most concentrated in a few months over the year, counts as “slowly”.

    I’m curious about how you used LLMs here? Also, to what extent you designed this vs the LLM copying it? My concern is all these vibe coded projects with huge readmes and fake GitHu…

    Indeed. It’s not clear at all to me that this is a better or even equivalent post to the one I submitted.

    What version of time is giving you that kind of output?

    That’s a great article, and indeed a very good blog. Just spent ages reading lots of their other articles. Of the bugs mentioned I think the most unforgivable one is the lossy UTF …

    First time I’ve heard of Kamal. Looks ideal! Do you pair it with some orchestration (to spin up the necessary VM)?

    I was familiar with the concept of unsafe blocks. What I didn’t know was there were issues outside that.

    I see you’ve been downvoted, but honestly this is news to me. I see that repo is two years old - are there flaws in Rust that aren’t edge cases that would make it not memory safe?

    This reminds me of the Action Replay device you could get for the Amiga 500 in the ‘90s. You could use a knob to slow down any game to a stop. You could also press a button to go t…

    I’ve had Proxmox on one of their AX42 servers for a year now. All of it is backed up to PBS, backed by Cloudflare R2 storage. None of it is mission critical - but it’s certainly so…

    I installed Proxmox on my main desktop - with GPU passthrough I can quickly switch to a Windows desktop for the rare games that need it (mostly VR).

    I haven’t yet worked out why cheap 100W PD cables partially fail after about 6 months. They can still provide some power, but between a MacBook and official Apple power supply, the…

    I keep going in circles with thinking about trying NixOS. I see an article like this about how great it is, think I might try it, then go down a rabbit hole of all the horror stori…

    I do wish egress were free, it’s one of the reasons I stick with Cloudflare R2 at the moment.

    I really like Tailscale. Recently though I’ve been having some hard-to-diagnose slowdowns even on a direct (non DERP) connection. I’m not sure if it’s something to do with MTUs or …
