There is any reason why you choose to build a Python wrapper for a Golang binary? I've been playing around with mcp-go[0] and it seems pretty good. [0] - https://github.com/mark3labs/mcp-go

Fastmail already provides this feature if you have a custom domain. If you have 'domain.com' you can receive emails either on 'foo@domain.com' or 'bar@foo.domain.com' without problems.

Some people really love putting dumb validation rules for emails in forms... You would be surprised to know how many system in the real world will just refuse anything that is not a letter or a number in your email. And the 'fuck them,

I'm not really sure how Apple's Hide My Email works, but my impression is they work by creating a proxy email for you. If that is the case, it should be a good solution for protecting you privacy. The problem is you become hostage

My point is that LMM is a tool, and we should never attribute any sort of blame to our tools. The blame should always be with the humans.

I don't really believe that LLMs will make us dumber. It only changes what we decide to put our attention. It's the same that happened with Google, it changed our relationship with information. Even though it has several shortcomi

I don't really understand why people bash so hard on LLMs. In some cases it is a spectacularly bad tool, I get that. But it is only a tool. Imagine if you have a judge giving out sentences based on astrology books. I don't think a

They tried something similar with the New Nintendo 3DS but a lot of people got confused. Sure, "new" is probably one the worst words you could use. But I don't think "super" would be better. And even if they did use

I was also expecting they would fumble marketing again and call the new console something like 'Switch U', but it seems they really learned their lesson there.

Couldn't you implement this as a plugin in your text editor? I think this could work reasonably well in Vim. You could have a shortcut in normal mode 'av' (add variable) which would let you create a new variable and possibly

While I kinda agree with you, I don't think we will ever find a meaningful way to throw genome sequencing data at LLMs. It's simple too much data. I've worked in a project some years ago where we were using data from genome s
