Re:How to Code Claude Code in 200 Lines of Code on Friday January 09, 2026 @05:41PM (#46560465)
wdym? claude code is just a wrapper

you can get yourself an api key at console.anthropic.com and build whatever you want

(i use local models where possible but must admit opus45 is good)

Definitely not sqlite-on-s3! Just for the photos and videos, and the periodic db backups
Wow that's great! Interesting if it's possible to use not just a folder but like a s3-compatible backend for photos and for db backups as well

(I don't think all my photo/video archives would fit on my laptop, though the thumbnails definitely would, while minio or something replicated between my desktop plus a backup machine at Hetzner or something would definitely do the thing)

Re:Authentication (sorry, no whitepaper for you) on Tuesday October 07, 2025 @02:46PM (#45507106)
one-time codes are better than magic links imho.

think a minimal, clean work pc and email on the phone.

can also do both ofc.

Pipedream.com Is Down

all workflows on my profile either timeout or show errors; the slack is full of people reporting various errorsironically, the "contact support" form doesn't work eitheri suspect the team is happily sleeping bc status.pipedream.com is all green

Re:Typed Lisp, a Primer on Monday May 05, 2025 @08:19AM (#43894275)
of all things, this is the most beautifully formatted and organized LISP guide i've ever met.
this is all very cool, but what it does sorely miss is usage examples.

it must be obvious for its creators, but presents quite a wall of features for others to join in.

I've found OneDev (selfhosted) to be an excellent alternative, unlike others which feel either half-baked or require a lot of configuration/maintenance

Re:Chat is a bad UI pattern for development tools on Tuesday February 04, 2025 @12:16PM (#42935449)
Can't say for everyone, but I have terrible memory and rely heavily on the chat history (and other tools) to keep my mental model in shape.

Here, ephemeral means "this conversation might as well never had happened", so why waste time on that?

what is surprisingly missing from their comparison is roaring bitmaps [0]

i'm sure they should've seen this paper because it's quite old

Re:100x defect tolerance: How we solved the yield problem on Wednesday January 15, 2025 @05:38PM (#42718158)
this is an important reminder that all digital electronics is really analog but with good correction circuitry.

and run-time cpu and memory error rates are always nonzero too, though orders of magnitude lower than chip yield rates

well, thanks for the nudge, moved my domains elsewhere.

Login works fine, operations after you log in - not so much. Edited "down" to "broken".

Thanks. I guess we need to summon dang now to remove the url?

[NOTE: Is it OK to submit URLs that require login?]

https://status.gandi.net shows all green, but:

- can't add or remove credit cards

- balance refill charges the card, sends no emails, account balance stays at $0

- at https://admin.gandi.net/billing/ you can't view invoices/orders etc with CORS error:

Access to script at 'https://assets-admin-gandi.global.ssl.fastly.net/billing/dis...' from origin 'https://admin.gandi.net' has been blocked by CORS policy: The 'Access-Control-Allow-Origin' header contains multiple values 'https://admin.gandi.net,', but only one is allowed.

(edit: yes, I've double-checked and that's the actual Gandi website)

Dreamwidth has this feature, agree it's awesome.

Obviously you don't see private journals someone is reading, still a good way to discover new things.

Google gets money from showing you ads, not because you pay them for quality search results.

When you have to come over and over, and visit more pages to finally find what you needed, they get much more cash from advertisers than when you get everything instantly.

Thanks for the ack!

M2 Max discharges in 2-3h when running ML models, and plugged into 140W brick.

M4 is likely more power efficient, but not 2x.

moondream.ai, caretai.app affected, likely more

> Nov 28: @cloudflare gives us $250k in credits, so I move a bunch of workloads over

Jan 1: They try to charge us. I open a support ticket, no response until I posted QT, they say they opened a ticket to the internal billing team.

Today: R2 access cut off

I had tried a ton of options, and settled on ceramic ball pens.

They're both the softest and most robust on different kinds of paper in case you don't have your preferred notebook/whatever handy

turns out the backdoor is a door after all ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Re:Pushing AMD's Infinity Fabric to Its Limit on Monday November 25, 2024 @11:24AM (#42237527)
btw what's about as important is that in practice you don't need to write super clever code to do that, these 68GB/s are easy to reach with textbook code without any cleverness
fireproof is super cool!

built a lot over couchdb 10y ago and fireproof checks most of the pain points i had with it!

well that's a weight reduction too!

on a more serious note, could it be that the load on the muscle gets lower so they adjust?

8% reduction for 30% body weight reduction sounds reasonable to me at first glance
