Well, just because LinkedIn still tries to send the requests on Brave doesn't mean the blocking doesn't work. The question is whether any request will give a valid response. That said, I can't find conclusive info on whether

Everyone knows you have to flip the USB cable twice before it’s no longer upside down.

Yes, that's what they're saying. LIDL doesn't have a cloud. The Schwarz Group does.

So? There’s no game with payout odds in your favor. Lotto (at least where I live) also shows the odds, which are always ridiculously low. Still, people play, because the human brain isn’t built to understand odds. It’s essentially worthless

The first model I see on the HF homepage is this one: MiniMaxAI/MiniMax-M2.7 Do you think that this 229B parameter model will work on my consumer PC? Stop pretending like HF is in any way beginner friendly.

And why do I use ggml-org/gemma-4-E4B-it-GGUF instead of one of the 162 other models that can be found under the ggml-org namespace? And how do I even know that this is the namespace to look at? That's what I meant by model manage

Thanks for pointing that out. From the description in the blog post it sounded like it was GUI only without an API, and I didn't bother looking into it because of that. But it look pretty nice, so I'll give it a try.

Exactly. The blog post states that the alternatives listed are similarly intuitive. They are not. If you just need a chat app, then sure, there’s plenty of options. But if you want an OpenAI compatible API with model management, accessibili

If you think AI can replace an SRE in 2026 April, I've got a bridge to sell you. I'm not saying "don't use AI." I'm saying don't turn off your brain and let AI drop your production database.

I can't sign in. We're not at capacity for OAuth servers or relational databases. This proves that vibe coding your infrastructure is a bad idea.

The only thing that's user error here is the developers of Fiverr exposing files without proper session authentication.

> will Fiverr be the first company to truly crash and burn from an "AI-first" approach? No. Nobody will care.

It kind of is, though. Google doesn't randomly try to visit every URL on the internet. It follows links. Therefore, for these files to be indexed by Google, they need to be linked to from somewhere.

Wait, I just deleted prod. You're absolutely right, that shouldn't have happened. My mistake.

I saw a TikTok of someone recommending to put cut roses in Sprite instead of water. Apparently it keeps them fresh much longer.

Interesting. I think I can confirm this. Got a Tahoe system with 55 days uptime that's mostly idling: % netstat -an | grep TIME_WAIT | wc -l 850 All other systems with < 49.7 days uptime report low single to double digit numbers.

Then you're not using any of their services besides DNS, at which point you don't need to use Cloudflare at all. As soon as you turn on any other service they offer, you need to actively migrate away. It's an inherent issue o

I had a similar issue and evaluated alternatives. Sadly, there were none that did the job well enough. How do you suggest to implement bot prevention that works reliably? Because at this point in time, LLMs are better at solving CAPTCHAs th

We solved this by introducing a silent block. If the system notices unusual behavior (too many payment attempts per user, for example), it no longer sends the payment attempt to the provider. Instead, it idles for a second or two and then j

Sir, ChatGPT 3.5 is more than 3 years old, running on your bleeding edge M4 Pro hardware, and only proves the previous commenters point.

Exactly. So why isn't Microsoft doing just that? Isn't that how Microsoft usually handles things? Just look at Xbox. They essentially screwed up everything they could and then some.

I’m still baffled that Minecraft is doing so well, despite the whole Bedrock thing. At this point I think Microsoft just forgot that they bought Mojang.

That'd be Nadella's head then. Not that I'd be complaining, though.

So let’s get rid of internet on the highway and in trains, too. Because it’s pretty much exactly the same thing. One just happens to be airborne.

Then they can enable downloads in the settings. I’m not saying they should remove the feature. I’m saying setting this as a default on a non-budget device is a bad design choice.

This one drives me nuts. Not just on Mac, also on iPhone/iPad. It's 2026, and 5G is the killer feature advertised everywhere. There's no reason to default to downloading gigabytes of audio files if they could be streamed with
