Absolutely! Australian Millennial year. Grew up watching S2-8 every night over dinner on Channel 10 (IIRC), and I sometimes think I could communicate exclusively in Simpsons quotes from that era.

Thank you for putting together and maintaining Frinkiac! I use Frinkiac multiple times a week to share memes with friends. We all grew up watching S1-8 weeknights over dinner and can quote those episodes almost flawlessly. Would love to rea

I was surprised (and frustrated) that OpenAI’s and Perplexity’s browsers are both Chromium-based. I would have thought that they would have gone with a Firefox (or WebKit) fork given: 1. That Google is a competitor to them in the AI space.

Agreed. I just don’t want to have to use a Chromium-based browser given Google’s grip on the project - but what alternatives are there if Mozilla goes under? Safari? Orion?

100% agree. I would happily run a dedicated enterprise browser that blocks downloads, has DLP, has watermarking (etc) if it meant I could use my own PC. Not Browser Isolation or VDI - An actual enterprise browser. My job is pretty much 100%

Yes. The acronym is “ZTNA” (Zero Trust Network Access). It is an alternative to a traditional corporate VPN that addresses a few architectural issues; namely: - L3 connectivity (which allows for lateral movement) to the corporate network. -

You’re absolutely right! It’s not just grating—it’s professionally reckless!

I've cancelled my Max 20x plan after hitting this and will try out Cursor Ultra or ChatGPT Pro + Codex for a month. Both are also $200/month. The best thing to do is vote with your wallet; particularly if you're leveraging th

That was my experience with them as well. There is a noticeable latency rendering the search results with Kagi as opposed to alternatives.

Firewalls and endpoint security are important, and Little Snitch is pretty good, but this feels like an ad being posted. It’s just a link to the main page of their website: nothing specific to warrant discussion.

Oh wow, it supports directly specifying a Pydantic model as an output schema that it will adhere to for structured JSON output. That’s fantastic! https://github.com/googleapis/python-genai?tab=readme-ov-fil...

Google needs to be broken up. It's extremely concerning that a company that derives most of its revenue from internet ads, can use its control over the world’s most dominant browser to limit apps that are a risk to its bottom line as i

Isn’t this the whole point of working; particularly at a FAANG? > It’s a shallow post-mortem I respectfully disagree. It’s an 8 minute read. Sure, it’s mostly in dot-point form, but personally I’d rather that than some massive 80,000 wor

> Across SRX Good lord. I don’t know whether I respect or pity you. There used to be a saying at Juniper: If there was an issue with MX, it was likely a config issue. If there was an issue with SRX it was likely a bug. Was incredibly acc

Spring cleaning my bedroom and home office. My whole life feels too cluttered and messy and the moment... Its like I’m in a rut and can’t seem to find the motivation (or passion) to start anything new. I’m hoping a clean-out might kick-st
