My router doesn’t have a WPS button, so I also had to use the two button interface. Not fun having to cycle through some 50 plus ASCII characters for the WiFi password. I’m pretty sure you can emulate the button press in openwrt with some p

I just use HN as my comment platform. I have a Hugo short code that (very respectfully!) grabs the comments on a full rebuild, but only if those comments are not already cached and if the post is less than 7 days old. The formatting looks q

For sure, but these LARP situations are mostly based on defending against a highly motivated and powerful entity like the government. But other situations like against thievery, domestic abuse, or brute force deterrent (ie: setting a simple

The main critique I’ve seen of the duress pin is that it causes undue trouble. The obvious counter argument is that if you genuinely have the need for a duress pin, it’s worth its weight in gold. If the severity of the charge or physical pu

The web server that powers fossil was also written by its author! It’s nice that unlike git instaweb you don’t need to install an additional web server just to see a read only view of your commits.

I use Fossil for all of my long term projects. It can even import Git repositories if you want to try it out. Today I was working on a semester paper for a non-technical class. It is versioned in fossil and I have all my miscellaneous ideas

Fossil itself is a C binary, not a database. Maybe they meant that Fossil’s source code is hosted in Fossil, or that Fossil repositories are SQLite files? I don’t exactly know either.

I quite like this one: https://tonsky.me/blog/monitors/ Although it is a bit slow to load sometimes.

I think the most valuable part of this “e” lineup is the in-house developed modem. The power and security benefits are probably enormous.

Well, the masses are wrong. See: insane amounts of compute wasted on “thank you”, “haha true”, “redo it”, etc. I think the UI should be designed to avoid misuse, and I think an ever growing distillation of your most common traits is not a g

Gemini’s web UI and mobile app are horrible. Gemini outputs malformed links that lead BACK to gemini.google.com. There are constant bugs with the side panel not showing your chats or the current chat timing out for no reason. Also, the mobi

I see what you mean, but I like having a clean slate even for those one off questions. I don’t want a differing answer to a philosophical inquiry just because the LLM remembers a prior position I’ve written about you know?

by wps 7mo ago
This seems to imply that customers assume by default that the LLM remembers their past chats? I feel like the UI makes it incredibly obvious it’s a clean slate every time? But then again people ask ridiculous meta questions all the time to

Could someone explain the appeal of account-wide memory to me? Anthropic’s marketing indicates that nothing bleeds over, but I’m just so protective of my context that I cannot imagine having even a majorly distilled version of my other chat

Detection methods only serve to stop the most blatant, low effort kind of LLM responses. The more pressing issue is that people are reading LLM output, and paraphrasing it for their assignments, reports, emails, etc. The obvious problem bei

This is a nice, refreshing post. Not everything has to be a big deal all the time. Also, there’s a LOT you can do at build time in terms of dynamic content for a simple static site. On my blog it actually renders the HN comments at the end

Nope, I meant VeraCrypt. As I assumed you meant splitting attachments into their own BLOB. This means you would have the KDBX file, then the attachment blob. I’m saying that you might as well use a purpose built encryption container tool. A

It’s more of a purist attitude on my end for sure. I cannot stand the idea of storing a PDF and all its bloat for a single paragraph of information that could easily fit into an entry note. Vendor PDFs are also sometimes ridiculously unopti

Haha, this is essentially what the original maintainer (Dominik Reichl) does. He keeps a 1.0 and 2.0 version depending on which format you use.

> but "some" isn't even "many" True, but it’s a start. Splitting the file into pieces is certainly not the right way to go about it though, as you would just be poorly emulating VeraCrypt! The most robust sync so

This class of mistake could have been wholly avoided if the format was SQLite based because there is no assumption that everything must be loaded into memory. Of course I defer expertise to you, but I've had a far better time with SQLi

I really appreciate your commentary here! I understand that SQLite would not automatically solve the politics issue. As ctoth mentioned, it would serve as a "flag day" for the KeePass community to hopefully cover everyone's b

Good to see you in here! You make a great point, historically the breaking changes have not really affected users. You kept your db as is, and it would get migrated if you wanted to use new features. A friendly warning on open with a prompt

KeePass is for sure better suited for this usecase. There is far less to keep track of, and the unlock mechanism and data are tied together. I've also had inexplicable issues migrating GPG keys cross-platform to where I just do not bot

I think a relational DB is the best tool for the job! I argue more for the use case of "secrets manager" than solely password manager. People store TOTP seeds and Passkeys and a myriad attachments. A SQLite store would better faci

I really doubt it. I have not seen any evidence to suggest that there are irreconcilable issues with SQLCipher's page level encryption over a flat file. Codebook, Enpass, Signal, and a ton of other important clients use it just fine.

by wps 7mo ago
Note to self is quite a bit more ephemeral in practice than keeping it in your kdbx file. Any number of things could cause you to lose your chats with Signal.

Attributes are meant to be user facing, and are super useful for all the assorted info that you can use during autofill steps. I primarily use this to autofill card information with autotype. Cryptomator checks all the requirements. It is a

The biggest weakness is the cost. Each client would have to purchase an expensive license. The source code is provided upon purchase though, but essentially destroys the ability to build a client from source due to the compiled binary distr
