You make the penalty for being caught have teeth. A slap on the wrist (or nothing in this case) just encourages more abuse. Make a public showing that it wont be tolerated. Something short of public execution, but decades in prison seems reasonable.

In the process of moving from claude code (opus 5.5 sub) to opencode with a custom sandbox system and using openrouter locked to certain models and providers with US data region requirements. Claude code is/was great. Just need to move due to industry regulations.

They don’t sell. They might just make it available through some other arrangement though

Can confirm. Reverts opt-outs. Resets some settings. Generally a worse experience with each update. Why would I want to know how fast my truck is charging at a supercharger? Thats no longer an option.

I’m not following. Youtube has always been an American company. YouTube was founded in San Mateo, California, USA, and it was an American company the whole time before Google bought it.

This isn’t just UK. Large portion of banks in US won’t work with weapons companies. It’s not law, it’s preference from their compliance groups.

Probably because 90% of work time is spent in recurring meetings.

This looks awesome. I am definitely trying this. I might lose more time to this than factorio.

The gas is primarily used to generate electricity. Where do you suggest the electricity for their electrification comes from?

Sounds like Dylan needs a better hobby.

So i buy one share of stock in a company and now I have access to all the internals? Can i go onsite and demand meetings?

Completely agree. Not just govt, but everyone who interacts with govt, especially DoW. Meetings are on DoD teams. Proposals and updates must be Powerpoint. Memos in word. Windows to connect to some networks.

We tried not using Office or Windows. Ended up needing a laptop with Windows and Office anyway.

Note to MS Product Manager: this should not be a success story. I was once your biggest cheerleader, now I am so desperate to get away from you that I am starting to look at Google as my savior.

I admire what you have done, but for a luxury experience, I do not want to talk to an AI that just tells me what is already on the website. If I have gotten to the point where I am calling you, its because I couldn’t find an answer to my question on the website in the first place.

A while back I built an orchestrator application that would monitor usb events and then launch/destroy containers that have that usb device mapped to them. The orchestrator also ran in a container with no networking.

Imagine my frustration when I learned that udev events don’t make it into containers unless networking is enabled.

Figured out a solution eventually. Was a combination of compiling certain packages from source and some kernel flags if i remember correctly.

I’m guessing they connected CoPilot to the inbound filter and it is doing stupid and unexpected things.

Yes. The Hailo chips are mainly for AI vision models. This is the first time I have seen them pushed for LLM. They are very finicky and difficult to setup outside of the examples. Documentation is inconsistent and the models have to be converted to a different format to run. It is possible to run a custom yolo8 model, but is challenging.

Tactical everything!

No. Written against the documented APIs and extension points.

I support Inventree. Even have raised PRs. Im specifically referring to things that are custom to our workflow.

Not specific to PartsBox, but we use Inventree (open source similar to PartsBox) and self host it. Over the past few months we noticed certain pain points in our workflow. Rather than looking for a new tool, we used Claude Code to write some backend services and some frontend modifications. Took 2 days of tinkering. Has easily saved that much time since we implemented it.

While rolling the whole solution with an AI agent is not practical, taking a open source starting point and using AI to overcome specific workflow pain points as well as add features allows me to have a lower cost, specifically tailored solution to our needs.

I switched to platformio in vscode (and command line) a few months ago after using arduino ide for over a decade.

Can’t recommend it enough. Faster startup. Repeatable builds. The abilty to save your image and then flash on many devices. Build time parameters. Also allows access to some functionality that is not possible using arduino build process due to how arduino compiles and processes sketches.

Are people seriously still on this “datacenter in space” thing? It has been beaten down with hard facts endlessly the past few months.

The problem I have seen is when I need it most, due to a rare fiber internet outage, so does everyone else nearby and cellular data becomes saturated and unusable.

Not OP. But Microcenter is in many US cities and prides itself on 18 minute pickup. I buy most of my tech that way.

Lets hear it for Tyranny by the Masses!

I can’t support Linux as the first computer enough. Both of my boys got an Ubuntu desktop for their 8th birthday. I showed them some basics. They were motivated to figure it out. They learned how things work along the way. Also no scammy popups or notifications causing confusion or them granting access “just click yes and it goes away”.

Ununtu (non root) and timekeeper plus. I work with them when they want to install something or do updates.

They have steam, minecraft, OpenRA for games and are happy.

They create music, program arduinos, edit videos they make with friends.

Smart people are not happier because of all the stupid people.

I agree. It take quite a bit longer to initially detect things. Then it also miss identifies certain things. Apparently I have 11 refrigerators (I dont). Also it finally did pick up my EV charger yesterday after 5 weeks.

I hope they continue to support it. I originally bought it because I don’t trust Duke Energy. Now it will be in the meters owned by Duke. Seems like a perverse reversal.

Epirus makes some good stuff from what I hear. Its use cases are limited though. Its another exquisite system. This means it will be high cost and low volume.

Sure bases and high value assets will have great protection. They already do. Stinger missiles (1 example) have been able to hit quads since the day quads took to the air. The cost asymmetry (150k+ vs 1k) means they are rarely used so you have to let most drone threats go.

The opening days of the Ukraine war showed that all you need to do to stop an army is tale out its undefended logistics tail. Fuel trucks, water, ammo, food, etc. These need to be protected also, and exquisite system like Epirus wont be part of these convoys.

Another take away from Ukraine is the lay-in-wait tactic where drones sit near the road hidden and wait for you to come by. The Epirus system (and most of the other cUAS systems) are not able to help. You are probably over a slight hill, hidden by trees, or too close to the danger zone where a bigger system would also destroy you.

Basically everything and everyone has to have a means of engaging these threats. It must be cheap (cost per kill including the initial system purchase), easy to use, and widely available.

Being logged out on a daily basis and having to login twice (once for the main client, once for calendar specifically) is beyond annoying. Hey maybe you would like to try copilot that we are shoving down your throat at every opportunity even through you disabled it as much as possible at the account level. Oh you thought you would get notifications reliably? Thats cute. We will only deliver them randomly. But yeah, sure, teams is better than slack or mattermost. We use mattermost internally. Has the good parts of slack without the lock in.
