after trying MiMo 2.6 Flash: unfortunately it ends up in infinite loops.
Re:Xiaomi MiMo v2.6 on Monday September 21, 2026 @04:50PM (#49793210)
how do you recognize "claudeslop"?
Re:Xiaomi MiMo v2.6 on Monday September 21, 2026 @04:48PM (#49793180)
yes. I use opencode and opencode uses Xiaomi as a provider.
Re:Xiaomi MiMo v2.6 on Monday September 21, 2026 @04:29PM (#49792956)
ah, would you look at that. I was wondering why mimo 2.5 became "dumber" the last weeks. I was speculating they are probably about to release a new version of the model. because the model really acted out a lot. especially the last two weeks. dont know, was just a feeling, highly speculative.

but now I got my "proof".

Re:Embedded Rust RTOS vs. C RTOS on Thursday September 03, 2026 @08:08AM (#49548932)
a much better comparison would have been "(Rust) Embassy vs (C) Protothreads-style (cooperative coroutines)".

why would you put controller logic into a non-deterministic environment like node-red?

you might as well just use vyos.

Re:10 Years of Let's Encrypt on Tuesday December 09, 2025 @09:40PM (#46213404)
only downside to LE is the attack surface presented by CTLs (Certificate Transparency Logs). as soon as you request a cert, you will get attacks on the endpoint/subdomain you have registered by countless IPs trying to login etc.
Re:Launch HN: Phind 3 (YC S22) – Every answer is a mini-app on Monday December 08, 2025 @04:09PM (#46197681)
too slow man. come on. you make phind worse and worse. unusable. no need to wait a minute for an answer.

seriously, just use https://chat.mistral.ai/chat folks.

Re:Launch HN: Phind 3 (YC S22) – Every answer is a mini-app on Wednesday December 03, 2025 @02:27PM (#46138821)
hey michael, long term phind user here. phind became absolute sh*t. almost every answer is wrong. web search should be on by default to get accurate info. but even then is ends up hallucinating a lot.

if every response starts with "You're absolutely right -- ..." you know phind is hallucinating and you can immediately close the tab.

Re:Cloudflare Global Network experiencing issues on Tuesday November 18, 2025 @02:14PM (#45970640)
one way to mitigate DDoS is to enforce source IP checks on the way OUT of a datacenter (egress).

sure there are botnets, infected devices, etc that would conform to this but where does the sheer power of a big ddos attack come from? including those who sell it as a service. they have to have some infrastructure in some datacenter right?

make a law that forces every edge router of a datacenter to check for source IP and you would eliminate a very big portion of DDoS as we know it.

until then, the only real and effective method of mitigating a DDoS attack is with even more bandwidth. you are basically a black hole to the attack, which cloudflare basically is.

the functionality OP is searching for is already provided by chezmoi. and many more features.

Re:Black Hat Rust on Monday December 09, 2024 @06:44AM (#42365276)
I could so I did. I wrote one. completely anonymous, private and secure.

the price you pay for is: it is slow.

so someone decided to build around docker + wireguard + a web UI dashboard + use buzzwords like serverless (which it isnt btw) + wrote some third-party API handlers and this is it? this is how you make $50 (once) per customer?

haha

Re:Rust-Query on Saturday November 30, 2024 @04:08PM (#42284044)
everytime I see something like this I question myself why I would want or need this over postgREST.

I mean why reinvent the wheel? we live in a time where the DB itself is a REST API with postgREST.
