No thanks

The original Raspberry announcement about Raspberry Pi Connect

All devices get remote shell out-of-the-box, and if you use a Wayland compositor, such as Wayfire, you can also share your screen. In practice, this means you can use screen sharing with Raspberry Pi 4 and later models, and remote shell with all models of Raspberry Pi, even the oldest.

Now I have another task to purge this out of my pi.

at the end of the day prompts are just a API call and it's easier to write standard code that treats LLM calls as a flaky API call

They are also dull (higher latency for same resources) APIs if you're self-hosting LLM. Special attention needed to plan the capacity.

Can you ELI5, how did you make this possible? I see the readme asking to download a binary and then also mentioning sqlite extension. I have never had exp with sqlite ext, so not quite sure how do they work. Appreciate how does this solution work under the hood.

And this understanding is extremely important when you are working on rate limiting. Instead of controlling the rate of requests, one must control the number of concurrent requests - https://docs.fluxninja.com/concepts/concurrency-limiter

Throughput (number of requests processed) is different from capacity (number of requests that can be handled). Managing capacity is more practical and optimum solution than managing the throughput

And yes, specifically talking about plugin based architecture. Not just a code refactor. Decoupling is the first step and the plugins will be created by internal team initially, the next will be to ensure security when external users publish their own plugins. The tech stack is Node.js.

The acquisition seems to be old, Y2019. I am not sure if you wrote this blog just now or had written earlier and published now. How have your perspective changed about the decision to get acquired since 2019, if it did?

I doubt it will be a huge success but this sparks interesting thoughts - how to put all these things on such a tiny board and power it up with a tiny Li battery. How to build it at home? FEMTO-ITX seems like the smallest motherboard to get started with. Is there a better/smaller alternative?

While this articles point out all the right explanation on why telemetry is needed and how it can be made little more transparent by Go toolchain acting as intermediary and publishing the telemetry data publicly, it fails to point out the disadvantages/risks of such system. At the core, the issue is about trust and the user not having any incentive.

That's what I meant to say - don't put your critical services passwords in one cloud password manager

Not Getting Hacked 4 years ago

Using "password manager for everything" comes with a critical disadvantages of making the pass mgr a single point of failure, increasing attack surface area. Take an example of recent Lastpass breach, I am pretty sure it will lead to hacking almost all services for some Lastpass users. Although Lastpass is saying - don't worry, your passwords are encrypted with your master password and it will take million yrs to crack them. No, it won't take even a month/day to crack master password of many of those users. You're overestimating people's ability to create strong master password and the efforts needed in cracking a password.

I'd rather be very specific in suggesting password managers, use them only for non-critical services.
