This is very reminiscent of old defrag tools. Keep this running in the background, for old time's sake. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KR3TbL3Tl6M

The HDD sound doesn't correspond to the defragging :(

What are you running that can handle that many websocket connections/messages?

basically anything that supports async/event-based would work just fine on a $10/mo vps

Earlier quoted context omitted.

Would be fun to read a writeup of how you implemented it.

it's a tiny flask server, a bitset stored in redis, updates broadcast (too frequently! but i don't want to change it now) via websockets, and react-window to only render the checkboxes that are in view. I'll do a writeup when i finish putting out fires!

I don't understand, where is the AI + LLM part
