That's planned, not a disaster. They've deprioritized brand awareness. Siemens for instance doesn't need brand awareness, if they did, they'd pick an english name.

Has it been merged into the GitHub repo? I wasn't aware of that and I don't see it here: https://github.com/django/django/tree/main/django/tasks/back...

This one? https://github.com/RealOrangeOne/django-tasks That and the rq backend sound promising to me.

I think it might be answering long-term questions about direct chat use of AIs. Of course as AI goes through its macroscopic changes the amount it gets used for each person will increase, however some will continue to avoid using AI directl

They're part of the same company, but that's a good point. They both have mediocre security.

The author didn't explain what the actual impact was on them. They stopped at "security implications" because the only reasonable outcome that would obviate this "Warning to All Users" would be to provide the latest

It's more of a Yelp review platform in this case.

They are essentially the same as software purchased from the 70s to the 00s though - shrinkwrap software, a term cleverly coined by Joel Spolsky. I just thought of it as buying software in a store at the time. Perpetual license is also a go

Perhaps instead of writing an llm abstraction layer, you could use a lightweight one, such as @simonw's llm.

I wouldn't use this, because it seems odd to use a Cloudflare Worker for something inherently static, but I thought about what I might use, and bunny.net came to mind. Now I have a question, which is why on the Bunny.net pricing page d

I was just pointing that out from the post you replied to, I don't agree with the author. However, I think that Iowa City isn't doing the symbolic fare, and that Brisbane's 50 cent fare would make some kind of a difference.

This gives me a good sense of how old these versions are: https://documentation.ubuntu.com/ubuntu-for-developers/refer... 14.04 LTS has Python 3.4 as well as Python 2.7.

It might be that you can start a trip in one of the cities, but you can travel out of the city to anywhere in the highlighted area.

llm is a lot about the Python API (or SDK) as well: https://llm.datasette.io/en/stable/python-api.html It shows how to use it async or sync, and even handles using async in a sync context. It's hard to write

They're dumping competition on two other open source python libraries LiteLLM and simonw's llm. Unlike these two, Mozilla's any-llm doesn't have to make money. I'm sure simonw will be welcoming because he's a f

That component is what keeps me from using Cloudflare for anything. Not because it exists, but because the way it's run is terrible for the open web: https://www.theregister.com/2025/03/04/cloudflare_bloc

I happen to be inclined to agree with what the post says. First it leads with a similing mastodon with hearts. Later on it says "I’m also aware that my aversion to public appearances cost Mastodon some opportunities in publicity."

The name Bard didn't fly, so they went for literal flying instead.

The name seems odd to me, because I think it's fine to describe things as a digital brain, especially when the word brain doesn't only apply to humans but to organisms as simple as a 959 cell roundworm with 302 neurons.

Thanks Mozilla, I don't know what I would do if I couldn't generate a config for Apache 420 with OpenSSL 69.

Amen. Friends don't let friends use Firefox in the manner prescribed by Mozilla in its current state. It's horrid. I have LibreWolf and Chrome installed, but not Firefox, and I like part of Firefox in spite of, not because of, the

Another thing this is similar to is Google AMP, which provided predictible user experiences through heavy restrictions. I guess AMP is to Mini Apps what Google Glass is to Oculus.

This isn't a "W", but I am finding my own "W" from this by seeing others distrust Google, and remembering to continue supporting and looking for open alternatives to Google.

The issue expresses doubt about a policy specific to LLMs being accepted. I think the way to go might be to accept that the bar for outside contributions should unfortunately be higher. It doesn't take an LLM to have a glut of low qual

That would be a fact in this case, because "Btop - Resource monitor that shows usage and stats for processor, memory, disks, network and processes" is too long for a HN submission

That seems like a correct interpretation and I don't like seeing it spelled out like this in a law. It seems more like a CAN-SPAM act than a step in the right direction.
