An “everything” feed reader. Its a plugable framework that allows you to push anything into an RSS feed reader type interface. Email, Slack notifications, RSS, etc.
I want one place to manage ALL notification settings. So if I want to be notified of Slack messages that contain the word “cat”, I can do that.
I am also looking to add summarization and tagging using a local SLM. Trying to find a method that can run on older hardware.
I had a similar situation using Jekyll (before Docker) so I wrote my own SSG, and its compatible with Jekyll frontmatter.
Its been a great experience and completely solid to use. Need a URL shortener feature? Code it into the generator. Want some static search? Code it into the generator. Want to generate a newsletter for certain posts? Wire your generator up to SES and do it.
I guess my first thought here is that I would just implement this on my blog platform as a series specific RSS feed. Generating an RSS feed per series and even per tag would be trivial to implement and make for a decent user experience. IMO.
I want RSS with micropayments. I want to consume information in my own interface, and am willing to pay. I am not willing to pay for a full subscription to a publication when I only find a few articles a year that I want to read.
I want Spotify for text, but with a business model that makes sense for all involved.
Data Story: Ethics, Productivity, Age and AI:How do these correlate with Developers’ Stances Towards AI at work, 2024
A smaller scale yet interesting look at how ethical issues impact stance on AI in developers. This post looks at data from the Stack Overflow Developer Survey 2024.
So for people building real things today are you saying instead of stringing prompts together with logic we should just sit on our hands for a year and wait for the models to catch up to the agent paradigm?
I’d be interested to see what this does to overhead costs of businesses that actually need a large vehicle.
I have a small horse farm and drive a 2010 F-150. I haul horses, 900lb. hay bales, feed, lumber for repairing fences and building shelters, etc.
If my truck breaks down I am going to have to scrape through used inventory to find something that fits my needs. I don’t need leather, 16 cameras, seat warmers, and a high end sound system. I need a truck that can get done everything I need around the farm, and I need it to be cheap enough that I’m not worried about it getting scratched.
All cars seem to be luxury vehicles now, I don’t know what folks are doing the just need something more utilitarian.
So I discovered the opposite. My reading was always tied to a goal of some sort. I started reading on a kindle and turning off progress indicators and suddenly I had my attention back. I wasn’t worried about improving or reading a certain amount per day or finishing a book by a certain date. I just read.
I have no use for this but my first thought is wondering how safe the features like InfiniteSpin are from hallucinations. That’s assuming it’s using an LLM of course.
I’ve been using radicale for contacts and calendar for quite a few years now. Plays nice with iOS Mail and Contacts as well as Gnome Evolution and has overall been a great experience.
“ By putting themselves in a corner, he created (at no small cost) the conditions where he could do the work.”
I think this might be the more important part. I am a firm believer that you do your best and most creative work under known and limiting constraints. With the constraints in place you couldn’t afford to NOT bring your half-baked ideas to the table.
The Raleigh NC area has quite a bit of tech, and if you stay about 20-25 minutes outside of downtown you can get that rural lifestyle while still being close to the city and tech companies. Specifically if you stay south of the city. I have 2 acres and regularly see cows across the field in my backyard but I also have a good selection of local tech conferences and reliable fiber internet.
I haven’t and haven’t had to. With this setup though I could really do anything I want with the messages.
I wrote up an article on hosting email in an S3 bucket. It does mean your email is in AWS, so not sure if that is any better.
The big difference is my setup doesn’t require another email service. Just 10 lines in a config to spin up an imap server. I was trying avoid the big mail providers when I set this up.
I plan to write a post about it. I’ll put it up here when I’m done.
I started there but didn’t like having my drafts and unfinished ideas visible in the repo. I now maintain my site in a private repo and publish to S3. Not sure if that’s possible now in Github or not.
I found s3 + cloudflare to be a better combo. Cloudflare offers free ssl certs and has overall been a great experience. I also use AWS SES for my domain mail. It gets delivered to S3, then a local python script grabs it and dumps it in a mailbox file for dovecot to serve via imap. I pay $0.05/month for my hosting of my site and email.
How is it compelling for DNS? (Asking honestly) Any article I have attempted to read is full of non-informations and vague generalizations.
I was wondering the same. No way I would load a module just to monitor CPU.
I have four kids and I still find time to speak at conferences, write the occasional blog post, and work on side projects. One thing for me is that having kids has forced me to be better organized. So even though I can't spend an entire Saturday working on a project anymore, I get a lot more done with the time I have.
This feels like what Meetup does. What makes this app different?
I think most RDBM systems have a way to pin a table or database in memory. The difference with the Microsoft solution is that it is a separate engine designed explicitly for memory. So there is no locking or blocking of pages. There are some other neat features as well, like hash indexes, but I have been able to push an 8 core box to ~80,000 inserts per second from a remote client, and over 200,000 per second for a test I ran on the host. I have not yet ran tests for express edition, but I will be interested to see how it performs.
To answer your other question, you have the option to either keep it all in memory (and lose on reboot) or commit the data to disk. In my testing I only saw a ~10% performance penalty for committed data to disk (granted we have extremely fast SSDs).
Fully in-memory SQL can also be accomplished using IMOLTP via MS SQL Express on Linux now as well. And you get a fairly feature complete engine along with multithreaded execution, no blocking, and some great client options. The only limits right now are 4 cores and ~350MB of in-memory data per database.
They are. But Apple was the only company smart enough to control that on their mobile platform BEFORE it became an issue.
As someone that lives in the Southern US, all I can think about is the number of spiders that would live in the cubby the bed slides into.

I guess I need more detail to understand your position on this one. An employee that is working for their own personal benefit and gain only is not going to work well in most team settings and will likely not care to work on projects that move the company forward. I don't think they are saying you need to die for the company, simply that your work should be focused on the goals of the company. It's kind of what you get paid for when you go to work.
Maybe as a percentage of total population it would be true?
