OpenVPN has both terrible configuration and performance compared to just about anything else. I've seen it really drop off to next to no usage both in companies and for personal use over the past few years as wireguard based solutions

Nice but is it possible to limit which websites the extension has access to? It's requesting access to read and modify content on all websites!

Nice find. Sonnet 4.5 = Fail, Gemini 2.5 Pro = Fail, Qwen 30b = Pass!

macOS not remembering finders window size at all is a never ending source of annoyance for me. This is neat - but disabling SIP to use it is a no-go for me at least.

I was looking for something like this the other day, thanks for sharing I'll be sure to try it out.

As I stated this is the top Qualcomm model we're talking about, not the base which is significantly lower. Given their top model underperforms the most common M4 chip and the M5 is about to be released it's not very impressive at

Their top model still only has "Up to 228 GB/s" bandwdith which places it in the low end category for anything AI related, for comparison Apple Silicon is up to 800GB/s and Nvidia cards around 1800GB/s and no word i

Nice that's great. I have a 96GB M2 Max that's plugged in 99.9% of the time so that's not an issue. Cheers for the response!

Nice work, does this work with local (100% offline) models assuming you have decent hardware and are serving them up with llama.cpp or similar?

4.6 is really small, what's the actual news here? Was it strangely shallow or something?

Nice, I quite like the interface. Is it open source / self hostable (offline)?

I've been running it since the RC and am currently in the process of uninstalling it. The new UI is so incredibly ugly I honestly cannot understand how they thought it was acceptable to even released as a beta let alone an RC and now r

No, it's worse. Basically it's the same experience but with an uglier UI

I think you forgot to include a link?

It's not really clear where you download the said grammar checker or if it's open source. Looks more like a puff blog piece than something actionable.

Fairly sure it's just a joke. Who takes testimonials on a products website seriously anyway?

Two things: 1. Just because you use AI to write code does not imply there is more code. You can write concise code with AI, you just have to set yourself (and the AI / tools) up for it. 2. The opposite of debt is not value. I agree tha

A few things: 1. Your token count per day seems quite low ("2M input tokens, ~30k output tokens/day") - that's FAR less than I'd expect,, for comparison I average 330M - 850M combined tokens per day, I'm on the

It's standard convention for (mostly GUI) applications to visually hide files and directories that start with a ., I don't know what you think a hidden folder is if it's not this and it has been widely accepted in the industr

Not for servers, containers, embedded or IoT devices which is the vast majority of the internet. I'm not sure what a reliable way of counting for developer machines would be but I'd doubt it'd be anything like it was in the 9

I was responding to your comment about hidden (.) files vs extended attributes. As much as I do not like Android - it does respect hidden files. I don't 'bother releasing stuff for Windows', as I said - for me it's not w

Had a chuckle at "classic Linux-first development", it's every OS except Windows - Windows is the outlier here, and I know plenty of engineers (myself included) which have no interest in trying to make things work in the Wind

I think MCP security scanning tools sometimes slightly miss the point when they're marking content that MCP tools could return containing things like 'curl, rm, sh' etc... with blanket high risk ratings. If we swap "agen

Hey, I've submitted you to two PRs, one to use a supported Python version, another to correct the links in your README and QUICKSTART docs.

TensorRT-LLM is a right nightmare to setup and maintain. Good on them for getting it to work for them - but it's not for everyone.

These are pretty embarrassingly bad compared to what was already out there. They refuse to do so many simple things that are not remotely illegal or NSFW. So safe they're useless.

This is incredibly sensible design (if they pull it off), it's a reasonable size (unlike a lot of 'Murcian utility vehicles), has some good options (like the dual solar roof) and a useful carry layout.
