I sync Garmin to intervals.icu and then use their mcp server

How does someone sensibly come to such a wild conclusion?
Re:How I Over-Engineered My Book on Wednesday August 19, 2026 @07:01AM (#49359842)
Where can I find the source for these? I'm currently over engineering my own book and you have done interesting ideas is love to reuse, without having to reimplement.
Re:Google launches Pixel 11 Pro Fold on Thursday August 13, 2026 @07:57AM (#49284660)
I've got a pixel 9, I don't see any meaningful changes here worth upgrading. The hardware looks essentially the same, except for a better camera and a ruby but if more battery. What am I missing?

I have a framework 13, but I couldn't imagine running a local llm on it, how do you do it? Do you have a eGPU?
Your Boris?

Could you publish your gitlab skill to give an example?

Missing from this is Nostr, which is very similar to Atoroto
Re:Aikido Code Audit on Saturday June 20, 2026 @08:56AM (#48608906)
So you have a write up on how to do this?
Engineers are conditioned to find problems, it's why we have the saying "don't let the perfect be the enemy of the good". It's paralysing. Often we raise problems outside of our lane, and that drives people nuts. This article is suggesting that we never raise issues, I've only ever seen the opposite, where we cannot keep our haranguing to ourselves and we fail to know when making a point makes sense or how to make our point and move on
Name the company, hiding it is irresponsible
Re:Noam Chomsky's wife responds to Epstein controversy on Sunday February 08, 2026 @05:30PM (#46939231)
He could have created this, and then Epstein decided not to launch it? It can exist without you and others knowing about it.
Re:Noam Chomsky's wife responds to Epstein controversy on Sunday February 08, 2026 @02:30PM (#46937631)
Just because you can't find it doesn't mean it didn't happen. Also just because you give it hard to imagine, does not mean that it didn't happen, or that people with better imaginations as you could accomplish that.

Why do you find it implausible that he got money to develop this challenge? I work in the non profit space and we get these kind of gifts all the time, with minimal strings attached or sometimes the deliverables don't see the light of day. 20k is actually small in my experience and they often come from random people who support our mission. Sure we do investigate and sometimes refuse based on findings, but we don't know or find everything. Taking money doesn't mean you know and support everything the person who have the money ever did, thought, said...

Fun fact, mullvad browser is created by Tor in collaboration with them.

Look into the Apache module called mod-remove-IP, it's old and hasn't had any changes for years, but it works much better than just disabling in the logs because it will also persist those removals throughout any frameworks. Also with Apache you cannot as easily destroy your error logs which sometimes have IPS in them. Consider nginx as an alternative

Re:Obscuring P2P Nodes with Dandelion on Saturday December 13, 2025 @10:47AM (#46255390)
The explanation for why Tor is different makes no sense. Instead of using a highly audited, 20 year proven, research backed protocol, let's invent something else? NIH syndrome

Your assumptions are based on faulty understanding of how tor works.

Clickbait title is usually a good indicator of clickbait content.

I see in the comments that the author is an academic, my cursory look of the site makes me disappointed to see such weak rigor applied here. This looks like a hit piece dressed up to sound scary. Not going to waste my time further on its claims when on the surface its given me this impression. Strikes me as yelling and not listening type of personality.

Would be interested to know how this compares to logseq etc

Why does Tor Browser get grade C when it only has green thumbs up?
