    I definitely appreciate all the work that has gone in to LiteLLM but it doesn't take much browsing through the 7000+ line `utils.py` to see where using it could become problematic …

    Seems to be a change in Cloudflare's managed WAF ruleset - any site using that will have URLs containing 'camel' blocked due to the 'Apache Camel - Remote Code Execution - CVE:CVE-…

    Thanks, this is an important nuance. Recommendation algorithms are absolutely useful, and if you're so inclined you can absolutely make them work for you, but this is about making …

    Great point. I'm personally trying linkblogging and following other link blogs inspired by Simon Willison [1]. The more people that do this the more we can start rebuilding network…

    I was definitely influenced to write this by Alec's excellent video which I recommend everyone watch. I'd hoped it would be a way to share my own opinions on it, summarise my own p…

    This looks very useful and far less hacky than my solution using OBS' Browser source and Bodypix/Tensorflow.js ( https://usher.dev/posts/make-your-webcam-look-slightly-more-... ). …

    Excellent! It's great when it tries to generate code: https://stackroboflow.com/#!/question/8138 (the last line here made me laugh)

    This is great - any others you can recommend?

    Fair enough! I'm intrigued to know your opinion of the game from what you've played of it. Do you enjoy the synchronization/counting aspect?

    I think that's a little reductive - there is more to it in the same way that there's more to poker than hoping you get dealt a good hand (I'm sure that's opening a can of worms). I…

    I've never been able to find the one note-taking system to rule them all, but that seems to be because the contexts in which I need to write/access notes are quite different. At th…

    I'm a big Moo.do[0] fan - I use it for notes, my todo list, and agenda, so at the moment I've got it set up as my new tab with some custom CSS to hide the stuff I don't need to see…

    I've been seeing an unusual amount of NTP requests in my PiHole logs but never got round to figuring out the cause - nice to have an explanation. Hope this is fixed in a firmware u…

    For what it's worth, I use Insomnia every day with some pretty large requests and I've never had an issue with it. With this, VSCode, Slack & Boostnote - a good portion of my daily…

    Ambitious is definitely the right word for this game. I've put about 7 hours in to it so far and can definitely say I've not played anything quite like it. It's huge, full of uniqu…

    I've not come across anything that I would call 'epic' from a minimal set of rules, but some of my favourites that you can throw in your bag, teach in 2 minutes and play in 15: Wel…

    This looks nice and simple! I've been enjoying Lost ( https://github.com/peterramsing/lost ) with PostCSS for grids recently - it has Flexbox support which works well and keeps gri…

    Great work, I've been enjoying using this exact stack recently - this has definitely taught me a few things. The main thing I'm still trying to get my head round with React/Redux/R…

    Sorry for the nausea - it's only after posting that I realised I could have been less antagonising. It's good to hear your opinions though.

    Really interesting to hear your experiences - thanks for sharing.

    I wouldn't call it zealotry, but probably resistance to change. As with anything new and interesting, it's easy to insert a fictional future scenario that takes away what makes our…

    Thanks for the answer (and to everyone else that replied) - it's always good to hear the other side of the debate. I could never imagine myself in a situation where I'd consider it…

    Can someone explain to me the appeal of this product? Why would anyone choose to drink a nondescript sludge over the plentiful ways we can get good, enjoyable & healthy food? I can…
