krzyk··on Spain to expand internet blocks to tennis, golf, movies broadcasting times
Any summary in English? My translation service doesn't give good results.
krzyk··on April 2026 TLDR Setup for Ollama and Gemma 4 26B on a Mac mini
By desk you mean that "Mac mini"? Because it is pricey. In my country it is 1000 USD (from Apple for basic M4 with 24GB). My desk was 1/5th of that price.

And considering that this Mac mini won't be doing anything else is there a reason why not just buy subscription from Claude, OpenAI, Google, etc.?

Are those open models more performant compared to Sonnet 4.5/4.6? Or have at least bigger context?

krzyk··on Spring Boot Done Right: Lessons from a 400-Module Codebase
Who cares about startup times if apps is started only when new version is deployed?

And 5 minutes is a bit long, maybe someone is doing some database operations during start?

krzyk··on Spanish legislation as a Git repo
Why is it a fantasy to have a fair system with no room for interpretation?
krzyk··on Migrating to the EU
Knowing Russia, it for sure did.
krzyk··on Migrating to the EU
Yeah. Try to enter US as EU citizen and see how good it is. Immigration officers are in bad mood (to say lightly).
krzyk··on Migrating to the EU
AfD is a party in single country in EU.
krzyk··on Migrating to the EU
Sure, those EIO will be held if Hungary starts applying EIO that it got (e.g. for former Ministry of Justice of Poland which awaits trail, he sits comfortably in Hungary).

Let's hope elections there will change Orban into something saner.

krzyk··on Migrating to the EU
EU did not force Romania. Romania itself annulled them because Russian intervention happened.
krzyk··on Migrating to the EU
Trends are various. You had Poland remove rightwing goverment 2 years ago (yes and elect righwing president few months ago). Romania electing a European centric president.

We can go on. EU is not a single country, not a single community of people.

krzyk··on Migrating to the EU

krzyk··on OpenCode – Open source AI coding agent
OK, make sense, but there are also claw clones that are in Rust (and self modifying).

Also python ones would also allow self modifying. I'm always puzzled (and worried) when JS is used outside of browsers.

I'm biased as I find JS/TS rather ugly language compared to anything other basically (PHP is close second). Python is clean, C has performance, Rust is clean and has performance, Java has the biggest library and can run anywhere.

krzyk··on OpenCode – Open source AI coding agent
By "agent" you mean what?

Coding is mostly "agentic" so I'm bit puzzled.

krzyk··on OpenCode – Open source AI coding agent
Why most of those tools are written in js/ts?

JS is not something that was developed with CLI in mind and on top of that that language does not lend itself to be good for LLM generation as it has pretty weak validation compared to e.g. Rust, or event C, even python.

Not to mention memory usage or performance.

krzyk··on Nvidia NemoClaw
OpenClaw? The one started by a person that sold his previous company and got >$100M ? I wouldn't call him a novice either.
krzyk··on Apideck CLI – An AI-agent interface with much lower context consumption than MCP
Nope, random MCP server where no one looks into its code is a bit more unsafe then a command you see (and can approve) executed in shell you control. In case of MCP it can do antything, and you don't see it.
krzyk··on Apideck CLI – An AI-agent interface with much lower context consumption than MCP
They are not also, but I like that they didn't ban those, we can use agents thanks to that.
krzyk··on Apideck CLI – An AI-agent interface with much lower context consumption than MCP
Not sure. Our big org, banned MCPs because they are unsafe, and they have no way to enforce only certain MCPs (in github copilot).
krzyk··on MCP is dead; long live MCP
There is no standard for MCP authentication, because of that it is e.g. blocked in my enterprise. Basically they want to avoid non-technicals installing random MCPs and exposing internals to internet.
krzyk··on MCP is dead; long live MCP
Most CLIs use `--help`, any other are just plain hostile to the users.

`-h` is also popular, but there is also possible issue of that shorthand, hence `--help`.

krzyk··on MCP is dead; long live MCP
If one doesn't sandbox agent run environment then there is a problem there already.
krzyk··on MCP is dead; long live MCP
I don't think so. There is no MCP standard for authentication, our infosec banned MCP because of that.
krzyk··on MCP is dead; long live MCP
MCP also doesn't work for coworkers that are technical. It works for their agents only.

CLI works for both agents and technical people. REST API works for both agents and technical people. MCP works only for agents (unless I can curl to it, there are some HTTP based ones)

krzyk··on Hardening Firefox with Anthropic's Red Team
What is there to loose in trying?

Basically, don't trust AI if it says "you program is secure", but if it returns results how you could break it, why not take a look?

This is the way I would encourage AI to be used, I prefer such approaches (e.g. general code reviews) than writing software by it.

krzyk··on Google Workspace CLI
I feel better with `curl ... | sh` than with npm.

npm suggests projects written in js, which is not something I'm comfortable.

It is nice to see that this is not JS, but Rust.

krzyk··on Google Workspace CLI
https://github.com/googleworkspace/cli/issues/119

Looks like it is not available for @gmail.com accounts, because of that bug.

krzyk··on Google Workspace CLI
github? I just do some click here, click there, copy paste and gh cli is ready.

For google I need PhD to setup any kind of API access to my own data. And it frequently blocks you, because you can setup as a test product, add test accounts (but it can't be owner account (WTF?)) etc.

I gave up on using a google calendar cli project because of all that lack of normal UX.

UX for google APIs looks like it was designed by accountant.

gws auth setup looks promising, but it won't work yet for personal accounts.

krzyk··on Google Workspace CLI
Crazy.

And this project uses "google" in its org, so I would assume it is offical or at least lawyers are running toward the owner with lawsuits.

krzyk··on Google Workspace CLI
Is Google Workspace some separate thing from well, normal Google?

I mean I have personal gmail,drive, keep, etc. Will it work there?

krzyk··on U.S. science agency moves to restrict foreign scientists from its labs
"their" meaning what?

Whole worlds culture except US?
