On a side note, thanks for wisp. I was looking for something like it so I could use it to quickly test the web builds of my tauri mobile app.

You don't even have to go that far, `base64` is a coreutil (https://github.com/coreutils/coreutils/blob/ebfd80083b4fe4ae...).

The point of ut is not to replace or invent new tooling. It is meant to be a set of tools that are simple, self exploratory and work out of the box with sane defaults. So, essentially, something that you don't have to remember syntax for or go through help/man pages everytime you want to use it.

I wanted to start using golinks in my workflow and I am a fan of the duckduckgo bangs. So, I built a Rust based web server that can act can act as your default search engine and handle bangs and go links for you.

It is configurable via a toml file.

From the readme,

Beam cannot support end-to-end encrypted buffers. While data is encrypted during transfer to and from the Beam host, it’s decrypted temporarily before being re-encrypted and forwarded. The host only holds a small buffer (typically 1 kB) of unencrypted data at any time and never stores the full stream. For extra security, you can encrypt your files or pipes before sending them through Beam.

With a little effort, beam is as trustable as any (if not more) of its alternatives. And, that extra effort is a result of the design goal of not having to force a binary installation.

Plus, you can always self host beam, it's not that complicated.

Is anyone here aware of beginner friendly learn-by-building style resources for getting into FPGA programming? Eventually, I would like to get to a point where I could build something like a DCPU-16 or maybe even an rv32mi core.

I have been using it to reword messages that are displayed in an UI. I write out the information that the message needs to convey and ask it to generate a simple and concise piece of text that does the job.

A month or so ago, I tried asking it some really specific questions about the Linux kernel and it did not generate anything useful. I assume it must have gotten a lot better now with the larger model.

Love the inventiveness.

My question is about the image distribution costs. All the memes on the site seem to be coming straight off an object storage, all that bandwidth consumption has got to add up(?). Some sort of a CDN might help depending on the search patterns.
