The appeal of GitHub for me is not only in the git hosting, but also in codespaces. It gives me:

    1: An easy way to start a VM
    2: A one-click solution to access it via private https access

So for development, I dont need to dabble with spawning my own Hetzner VM or something. And I also do not have to dabble with getting a temporary domain and DNS so I can set up my own letsencrypt certs and point the domain to that VM.

I can just write an index.html, execute "sudo python -m http.server 80", click the link that then opens to something.app.github.dev and test my new web application.

This is why codespaces make starting a new product idea a thing of like 1 minute instead of 1 hour for me.

Why base the decision on what tools are used by the author and not on the quality of their past contributions?

Which part of looking at the binary to understand how the device works and then writing a driver from scratch that talks to the device would violate copyright?

One would not have copy the implementation. Just use the binary to understand how the hardware device works. Like "Aha, it sends point data as x/y/pressure triplets, each being 16 bit values" etc.

I meant the binary.

With enough patience and spit it should be possible to understand it. And AI can do it while we sleep.

Could AI do it?

Would it work to give the Windows driver to an LLM and tell it to analyze it and write a Linux driver?

    AI isn’t replacing me. Like a toddler, it
    needs to be constantly coached.

Like a toddler, it will grow up.

Humans are really bad at noticing trajectories. They see the current situation. They know what the situation was 5 years ago. But for some reason they do not believe that there is a trajectory. They view the present state as the final destination.

先月議論

But why recruit people, now that we have AI?

Couldn't an agent monitor feature requests and bug reports, reason about them, and then implement and fix the ones it deems important?

先月議論

For an open source project, is there any reason to still accept code contributions?

Feature requests are valuable because they tell you what users want.

Error reports are valuable because they tell you under which circumstances the code fails.

But the code that implements those features and fixes those errors can now be written by AI. AI follows all the rules for how code is supposed to be written in your project. Is already producing very high quality code. And soon it will produce a quality that no human can match.

The status page says it is fixed, but the server I host with them is still down. It even says so when I log in. Not available "Due to a current error".

Would running Codex in a container on its own fix such vulnurabilities?

    If a more capable show up and starts
    beating all the other models

There is an instance of this in the chart. In 2025-06-24 when Gemini-2.5-pro shows up. As you can see, the ELO of the others do not drop.

Could it be that this is a reasonable protection so that the average user is not being spied on via cameras in the printers when their computer gets compromised?

I guess you can do remote monitoring via Orca when you set the printer to developer mode?

2 か月前議論

No, that is not how ELO scores work.

Here it looks like you can connect Orca?

Here is my perspective as someone who has not started 3d-printing yet, but is interested to give it a try:

I'm a confused about the whole "3D printer sends prints to its manufacturer's server" issue. Because I wouldn't want to connect hardware device like a 3D-printer to a network in the first place.

Can I buy a Bambu Lab printer and just never hook it up to any network?

Will I be able to print from sd-card just fine?

Can I update the firmware from an sd-card?

If these two are possible, I would not have any problems with such a device. If they are not, I would not even think about getting such a device.

And when it comes to slicing software: Can I use any slicing software and all I have to do is load the hardware info of the Bambu Lab printer I want to use? Or do I have to use Bambu Lab Studio or a fork like Orca Slicer for some reason?

And while we are at it: Does command line slicing software exist? I wouldn't want to dabble with a GUI. I would want to define the parameters of a print job in a yaml or json file and then slice it like "./slice.sh config.yaml myobject.stl"

I still do not support IPv6 on my servers and I think I will skip it and wait for IPv8:

https://www.ietf.org/archive/id/draft-thain-ipv8-00.html

Avoiding a dual-stack and making IPv4 a part of whatever superseeds it seems like the right choice to me.

IPv6 always seemed to me like throwing away all existing telephone numbers, just to support longer numbers.

I wish there was a system that lets users put up a donation that is released once a specific bug is fixed or a specific feature is implemented.

Wouldn't that be cool? The company would have a list of tasks with a dollar amount next to it.

I for one have been dabbling with a bug in ThunderBird for days now that drives me mad:

I recently created a folder in Thunderbird and called it "archive". No way would I have expected that this will lead me to a bug and will take hours out of my day: There seems to be no way to get rid of this folder anymore.

Things I have tried:

"Keep message archives in" in "Copies and Folders" is disabled. I tried temporarily enabling it, setting it to some other dir and disabling it again, that did not help.

I have disabled it in "subscribe".

I cannot rename it.

There is no "archive" folder in the web interface of my email provider, so if it Thunderbird somehow created it on the server, there seems to be no way to see, let alone delete it again in the web interface.

I tried deleting archive.msf on disk. That makes the folder disappear after the next start, but it is recreated after about a second.

I deleted folderTree.json and folderCache.json, that did not help.

Swift reminds me a lot of Flash back in the day.

While the Flash guys had to use a native development environment and compile their stuff, I could just edit JavaScript in a plain text file and hit reload.

20 years later, and some of the same friends now swear by Swift. And have to use a native development environment and compile their stuff. While I still prefer to just edit JavaScript in a plain text file and hit reload.

I only skimmed the article, but the proposed solution seems to be that the authority (the "issuer") sends data to a device the user owns but has no control over. Like an Android or iOS phone.

The data is of such form that the phone then can pass challenges of type "are you of at least x years old" without giving out any other information.

And the user cannot share that data with other users because their phone will not let them.

    P.S. `curl -fsSL https://claude.ai/install.sh | bash` works.
    You can run real Claude Code and it can use Shiro's tools
    like a normal Linux system.

Are you sure? I am getting this:

    user@shiro:~$ curl -fsSL https://claude.ai/install.sh | bash
    Installing Claude Code...
    Installing packages globally...

    Resolved 1 package(s):
      + @anthropic-ai/[email protected]
      22 files extracted
    Created 1 bin symlink(s) in /usr/local/bin

    Packages installed globally.

    Claude Code installed successfully!
    Run: claude
    user@shiro:~$ claude

Now I get what looks like errors:

    anonymous/q2<@https://shiro.computer/ line 991 > AsyncFunction:57:43
    y/<@https://shiro.computer/ line 991 > AsyncFunction:9:688
    ...and some more like this...

And then I am back on the normal command line.
