Have you tried the Import plugin in Obsidian? I used it the other day, and it seemed to do a good job with OneNote, though my ON notebooks are just simple text and images. I believe it automates an export from ON to HTML and then converts

Nonsense. WinGet has the ability to add repositories, just like any other package manager. If you want the 'approved' packages for the distro, that would be the msstore repository. If you want to use the 'community feed'

Disagree entirely. GHCP at least is transparent about the pricing: hit enter on a prompt= one request. CC/Codex use some opaque quota scheme, where you never really know if a request will be 1,2,10% of your hourly max, let alone weekly

Windows has great support, surprisingly, for TPM-backed sk keys using Windows Hello and OpenSSH. Protected with physical presence and anti-hammering at the hardware level, and easy to setup by just selecting a sk type key. I only use passwo

You can just replace dropbear with openssh on OpenWRT. That was one of the first things I did, since DropBear also doesn't support hardware backed (sk) keys. Just move it to 2222 and disable the service. I reenabled DB on that alt port

GHCP also has magical rate limits that hit users that slam multi-agent workflows or other crazy request burners. Mind you, I think GHCP is a great service at an excellent price, but the hardcore vibe coders complain about the rate limits th

Hey LLM, write me a system prompt that will avoid the common AI 'tells' or other idiosyncrasies that make it obvious that text or code output was generated by an AI/LLM. Use the referenced Wikipedia article as a must-avoid li

The bigger question is: does Anthropic have a big enough moat to matter? I've used/use both, and find them pretty comparable, as far as the actual model backing the tool. That wasn't the case 9 months ago, but the world chang

But onset of action is a very important distinction in medicine/pharmacology, as is dose. Most abusers of methamphetamine are not taking it orally (slow route of administration) and are generally using much higher relative dosing than

While stay at home parenting isn't, and shouldn't have to be, for everyone, it also isn't somehow a downgrade from being in the working world. If anything is doing something 'over and over', it's trudging to so

This is the point missed by many. The trades are in high demand, right now, because of a labor shortage and demand from upper-middle class individuals without any DIY skills. A generation or two of pushing kids into college, and an almost d

Are they? I'd put Codex 5.3 on par with CC for almost every task, and OAI has been rapidly updating their app, with a major initial release for Windows just a few weeks ago. Quotas are a moving target, but right now, Codex offers a bet

If you want to run EspHome inside HA, and you recompile the devices (every release of EH), you want a decent processor/disk. The ESP stuff is a surprisingly heavy compile for a puny microcontroller.

You're making it complicated with all the VLANs. HAOS in a VM (proxmox helper scripts for one-line install), and HA has plugins for all the other things. Just deny WAN access to the IoT junk you don't trust at the router, or for t

I've always said one of the best non-major-related courses I took in college was Criminal Justice 101, which went through all the most applicable SCOTUS case law for common scenarios. Ignoring the variation in state laws, you could boi

I'm curious why you don't like OpenWRT? I've found it to be the better choice for x86 hardware, because it performs so much better on older CPUs. FreeBSD has gotten better with driver support, but the Linux kernel in OWRT is

It worked for years for the SomethingAwful forums. A nominal charge for the ability to post, with plenty of 'timeout' chances for rehabilitation before an outright ban keeps out most of the junk. It feels wrong at first to pay for

I've found and fixed this bug before. There are 2 other ways to handle it Dapper has a static configuration for things like TypeMappers, and you can change the default mapping for string to use varchar with: Dapper.SqlMapper.AddTypeMap

This is exactly the argument that is (correctly) levied against firearm restrictions.

Even though I don't like the privacy implications, make sure you use the option to save and use past chats for context. After a few months of back and forth (hundreds of 'chat' sessions), the responses are much higher quality

From a 'public health' perspective, it makes perfect sense to limit the frequency of screening procedures by age and other broad risk-factors, but that doesn't help at the individual level if you fall on the unlucky side of t

Though ostensibly supportive of your claim, the first article says it best a few pages in (surprisingly honest): "To date, there are no clearly established biological mechanisms that could explain the role of red and processed meat in

I think the 'elementary mistakes' in humans are far more common than confined to the mentally ill or intoxicated. There are entire shows/YT channels dedicated to grabbing a random person on the street and asking them a series

It's interesting how much focus there is on 'playing along' with any riddle or joke. This gives me some ideas for my personal context prompt to assure the LLM that I'm not trying to trick it or probe its ability to infer

Drywall gets maligned, but it is a pretty remarkable building material. Inexpensive, easy to fix/finish, and very fire-resistant, especially for its weight. The timber-stud and drywall model also works well for the modern world, where

And... this is why the hyperscale cloud is such a compelling choice, even though it costs 10x what running your own servers would cost. Adding the security feature(s) you need is just a +$100/m checkbox, and they generally have sane de

The gateway/router should be the time source. DHCP has an option to provide the time server (NTP) - option 42, and most decent devices or OSS/DIY router software (OpenWRT, opnSense) will support that as well as being the local tim

Check who used to own your place and who owns that lot now and see if any names line up. I still receive occasional postcards from real estate mogul wannabes for a property out in Colorado (I'm in PA). The previous owners of our house

Compliance and tooling are a big part of it, but the places where the big public cloud providers shine is the PaaS offerings that you don't need to write yourself. In Azure, for example, it's possible to use Entra as your Active D
