Very nice! I also saw you have a vllm branch and I validated it works on my system. There is bugfix which sent you a PR for to auto-discover served-model-name which vllm hard validates for.

With lower margins of course. Walmart, Indian Railways, major airlines etc all support massive user bases comparable to or bigger than the paid tiers of these apps. But of course the cult of Big Shareholder value creation means the CEO that

The VSCode plugin now (since last week I think) allows you to highlight elements of the plan and add comments. I think it first appeared in Antigravity but now is in Claude code. Unfortunately there is only so much you can do in CLI. It is

More impressively, Da Vinci Resolve is actually free with no restrictions. It is a high end video editor that film makers and professional film studios use (together with hardware and some paid features) from black magic design. Incredibly

If you're running your apps on Kubernetes, standard ingress supports certs. For small applications, Cloudflare TLS on free tier is dead simple

Not the original poster but have tried all that that. It's far easier with Kubernetes - just deployment, service secret & ingress config and stuff just works cleanly in namespaces without stuff at any risk of clobberring each other

This take misses the real un-stated strategic mistake which is what I'm pretty sure Merz actually means but can't say aloud. Shutting down nuclear reactors means you lose a source of plutonium that can be diverted to weapons manuf

The point of the whole Congressional exercise was to grab ownership of a highly lucrative social network on the cheap to the American investor class. Whoever won the presidential election got to choose the winners.

You are assuming military pilots will pay attention enough to unilaterally notice and stay clear without making mistakes. In the Dulles disaster at least, this clearly didn't happen. With transponders on, both aircraft (via TCAS) and
