Is this open source? Or would you be willing to share the prompt of how you accomplished the faithful representation of content? I’m curious what approach you took that sets it apart from the tools that you felt had failed. I didn’t watch the original video but the article looks well formatted.

Wake Up, Remix 1 year ago

I'd guess to add something like RSC or more integrated data loading. Seems like we have to wait until October to find out more, but hopefully they drop more information earlier.

I was able to get it working and it seemed fast enough. However I don't have any local databases of similar size to compare to.

ssh -F ssh.config -L 4213:localhost:4213 dev 'DUCKDB_HTTPPORT=4213 ~/.duckdb/cli/latest/duckdb -ui'

What is the ideal use case for this? It looks to be 13.5x more expensive for a much smaller model.

DeepSeek R1 Pricing (per 1 million tokens)

    Input: $0.00135 × 1,000 = $1.35
    Output: $0.0054 × 1,000 = $5.40
Google Gemini 2.0 Flash Pricing (per 1 million tokens)
    Input: $0.10
    Output: $0.40

My ip is dynamic so it seems I would need to wrap it in a script that would handle opening and closing. I didn’t see any authentication built into the UI. Seems like a great local tool but harder to get right in production.

It looks like the port is configurable, so that should make it easier to avoid conflicts but I wonder how the performance would be impacted.

What is the best method for using the UI with a remote server that only has SSH access? The database is too large to rsync locally and seems risky to start opening ports?

I'd be curious too. It sounds like standard RAG, just in the opposite direction than usual. Summary > Facts > Vector DB > Facts + Source Documents to LLM which gets scored to confirm the facts. The source documents would need to be natural language though to work well with vector search right? Not sure how they would handle that part to ensure something like "Patient X was diagnosed with X in 2001" existed for the vector search to confirm it without using LLMs which could hallucinate at that step.

What models would you recommend for basic classification if you don't need a 24B parameter one?

Installed via brew cask command and get the following error:

App load error Couldn't load app catalog. Check internet your connection, or try restarting the app.

I am running LuLu which I allowed the process to go through, tried to Retry and Quit but doesn't work for me.

My 2c, I like the logo on the website better than the app icon. The heavy drop shadows make it a bit dated. The website logo is minimal and clean in comparison and would look nice in the dock.

Do you have any recommendations for tutorials on setting this all up with docker?

How do you connect outside the network?

I am running DDNS to access my home services and it has been very error prone and frustrating. I moved some services back to the cloud because the bots were using all my DSL upload that we didn’t have enough bandwidth to work even with cloudflare firewalls.

I always struggle designing urls in the first place with SEO in mind.

Do I put an ID that bad actors can crawl in ascending order? Do I hash the ID? Do I have a unique slug that requires thought to avoid clashing in the future? Does that add another DB lookup or are you looking up the ID anyway? Do you do /id-slug or /id/slug but if you move to Wordpress or off your stuck with /slug or something with no ID.

Maybe none of it matters but it seems like it does, especially if you consider it a change you expect to last the life of the domain. Every tech solution instead of rolling their own has their own unique way of handling it.

I didn't want a NAS. I wanted a linux machine to experiment with docker and setup photoprism. I am self-hosting ~20 containers so far. It has 32GB RAM and pretty good CPU to experiment and run different workflows in the containers. I noted it could be done cheaper but that is not my goal. Can always add external storage.

My wife and I live states away from our respective families and once our first was born we started a self-hosted wordpress blog. Photoprism has been amazing to create albums that I later edit and document on a personal blog that the long distance families can access. We found it enjoyable to put together a post each month with some of our favorite photos and memories. Everyone else seems to love it as well. We are now working on putting together some posts on past vacations and other moments we want to remember. The combination of photoprism for viewing and wordpress for storytelling has been a perfect combination for us.

I built a lower end linux machine out of consumer grade parts in order to self-host this. I think it ended up being $600-800 with 8TB of storage but could be done a lot cheaper. Hard to beat $10/mo though unless your needs extend beyond storage. I ended up using it for a lot more in the end (mealie, wordpress, etc). Something to consider if you the budget and time.

it doesn't support traditional circuit network components used for traditional voice calling or SMS so these won't work like you expect.

Does this mean that the number associated with the Super SIM would be classified as VOIP and rejected by certain systems that require a "real" number. For example using the new SIM in any phone number verification system that rejects google voice and other providers.

Could this be used as a sort of sporadic consumer phone service? For example signing up for services that require phone validation but want to protect your real phone for privacy. Activate the SIM, signup, verify, then deactivate. Repeat if they don't recognize your device or when you need to re-verify. After hardware costs you would be looking at $2/mo any time you needed it.

Most other services I have looked at require a constant subscription. Or they are not a "real" number like google voice that can be detected and rejected. Or when you cancel and re-activate your previous phone number has changed so you can't re-verify without maintaining an active subscription. If the number is assigned to the sim then you can potentially rotate or have multiple numbers as well.

Waterfox Browser 7 years ago

Looks like its a sponsor of their CDN. The link doesn't embed any tracking that I can see. Its simply a referral link so that stackpath can determine how many people clicked from waterfox.

Already signed up, looking forward to trying it. I found this line on your blog:

https://support.photostructure.com/how-much-disk-space-do-i-... > As an example, if you have 250,000 images and videos, your library metadata and previews will consume about a half a terabyte.

I assume this is mostly from the preview image size and not meta data? This is where I was hoping for a configurable image size because I would be willing to have smaller previews to be able to store more metadata.

If the goal is to archive my entire life's photos or even use it for business use then at some point it looks like I would need a dedicated drive / computer just to view the photos on the other drives. If it is configurable then I could push this limitation further.

I have been looking for a photo meta data app for a long time, not sure if this is something you have/will offer.

I am essentially looking to leave the original photos on external drives and have an app that indexes them and stores a customizable thumbnail with the app to view them on my local machine. This way I can browse through all my photos and figure out the original file path if I want to retrieve them. The most important aspect is that I can take the drives offline while the thumbnails and index remains within the app and re-indexing when connected again.

My existing workflow is to import all photos on my mac to the Photos app. I pull them from different devices (phones, camera, etc). The photos app does an OK job at de-duping any matches. I also run PhotoSweeper to further de-dupe which analyzes the photos itself and I can leave the best ones remaining. After that I run some custom scripts to export the data as [year]-[month]/[year]-[month]-[day] [hour].[min].[sec].jpg. I then merge those onto my external drive and kick off my backup process to clone them to other drives and sync to cloud.

The closest I have come is Lightroom which indexed the drive a little bit but the "thumbnails" and catalog is huge. It allows some tagging and other features to discover old photos but some processes are a bit manual. This workflow seems to be common among digital asset management software which is expensive and way more then I am looking for.
