I'm not saying the world needed another mini-claw, but I needed one. A minimalist self-hosted Telegram bot to talk directly to a [Pi](https://pi.dev) AI agent harness.I'm not saying you should use it. But if you're a Unix guy like me, maybe you can get inspired, in a world where personal agents include the kitchen sink and a Minecraft server. :)- Supports switching Pi sessions directly from...

Could be done, but nothing is EVER simple regarding IPv6. :) What about EUI-64? Any special cases regarding TEREDO, ORCHID2, 6to4 addressing scheme (NOT the same as NAT64!), etc...?

Nevertheless, something like this could be an option.

Let's hope this not end with me taken away in handcuffs, lol :)

Heh, I never thought about that, but it's true.

Thanks for the encouragement, Edmund!

That could be a logical next step!

You would be surprised how many of us are on IPv4 :) With GUA, who needs tracking cookies? ;)

Show HN: Chat with people who share the same Internet connection (= IP address)

I built a simple, ephemeral chat service that connects you only with users who share the exact same public IP address as you.It's essentially a temporary, isolated chat room defined by your NAT gateway.It's not super useful nowadays, but let's see where this takes us. :)

I wanted to say that I still occasionally use TCL, too! :)

My favorite quote from Systemantics is, "When a Fail-Safe system fails, it fails by failing to fail safe." :) So true

We europeans were aware of this since our childhood. :) Where had they thought Der Maus lives?

I prefer to think of it as a toolbox -- the right tool for the right job.
Re:What happened to CouchDB's popularity? on Thursday November 03, 2011 @05:25AM (#3190952)
I have to agree. Not long ago, the biggest advantage of CouchDB for those new to NoSQL were its simplicity and "relax". Lately it really has disappeared into IBM-esque product combination offerings.

I truly hope they sort it out though, since CouchDB itself is great technology.

Can you post a link to NX? (I try to google "X NX" I get, well something very different :) )

I like this "remotely triggered deploy" idea :)
