I remember trying out a zombie running app ~15yrs ago and am a fan of the concept. That was a podcast pretty much, audio-only storyline in your ears describing proximity/urgency/etc. I didn't grant this thing GPS access (work

I can't begin to picture how much AI slop they are having to filter out. I wonder if they are going to entertain some UX to save people disappointment. "The project should be non-trivial. Don't post quickly-generated one-offs

In case anyone else is curious, local Gemma4 12B Q6 XL really struggles to make use of this for simple goals like a daily briefing after an MCP tool call. I don't think there's a simple artifact concept? Still early but confused.

Seems like a good candidate to replace my home-grown llama.cpp web UI clone. This comment used to be a gripe about their provider UX not giving an example URL (realized /v1 is expected as the final segment).

They've got an openai + anthropic compatible endpoints. I got far enough to run some tests on the openai endpoint, albeit with some finagling (their /models list is empty, my tool auto-configures using that, was an initial stumble

what model did you try it with? I agree and also push back a bit: How will we know when the LLMs reach the point of handling it if no one takes the leap? I applaud more people sludging through the slop and hauling their slop buckets around.

I'll agree and expand on "weird restrictions" -- I used to check the claude usage graphs multiple times a day to see where I'm at on my weekly budget. With gpt 5.5 I don't think I'm working differently but have

Probably not _as_ good, but you can run gemma 4 for the ears/brain (accepts audio input), and kokoro TTS for the mouth. You want something like silero VAD sitting in front of the LLM so you aren't passing wasteful audio to gemma 4

The best project I found to throw it at was cloning llama-server's web UI essentially in one shot. I'm not sure what I'll do with 5 extra days, maybe try to imagine some complex features. I'm no longer surprised at how m

Lately I've been following https://loco.rs/ as it aims for a rails-like experience, complete with generators for workers, controllers, etc. I've only had time to experiment but it's the closest I've gott

The car prototype reminded me of Spy Hunter graphics, but I couldn't remember that NES game's name at first. Sent me on a nice nostalgia dive!

Just wanted to say thanks for bringing this up! So far it is a really interesting tool for me, as someone too lazy to find a proper financial planner

I don't recall a ball, but they dropped a feather and a hammer (the gravity experiment).

I helped write what might be a similar API gateway prototype in rails (made a DB query and decorated downstream requests with auth/role/etc headers). You might have threadpool/process/concurrency tuning to do. Even then,

Came to upvote this. I think that github component in particular worked really well for me on a recent experiment. Server-rendered HTML can use custom components in our fancy world today! It's a feel-good place to be compared to just a

if you're in rails, then in my experience you just add `safe-pg-migrations` gem and call it a day :D

I'll throw out the the GTFS transit standard involves publishing zipped CSVs representing your DB tables regularly. There are nice things about it and downsides IMO. This is how google map's transit directions function -- they rel

I still have my OG backlit kindle. It's showing its age with a tiny tear that lets backlight through, but I'm still pushing through books on it. I'd be curious how these newer E-ink displays have improved, wonder what the ref

just in case I confused: i'm not sure mold helps with the size of that directory :D. I was commenting on how big my rust repo is really, just saying that mold seems to help big builds like mine

This linker noticeably improves rust development happiness on an exploratory, chunky repo of mine that is trying to be a big ole web monolith (uses SeaORM and axum/tokio). You don't want to know the size of my `target` directory,

Looks slick for how quickly it was built. I was surprised by the download size and RAM footprint, but... if it was easy to do cross-platform, I'm thinking this is still ahead of electron on footprint? Or at least competitive. Interesti
