This mentioned using the claude binary, is it using 'claude -p'? And are you worried about the subscription/billing changes that were supposed to take effect this month? I have a similar ui I made for myself that I'm wondering if it will just become useless eventually.

I didn't know banks were closing their SDB services. I've been thinking about getting one as an offsite/offline backup for a few important things, but maybe I'll reconsider.

Searching I do see there are some companies who aren't banks and offer similar private vault services. I wonder how reliable they are.

how do OSS projects even know unless that single engineer tells them or opens a github/etc issue or something like that?

Very cool. I don't usually get excited for new chat apps, but I like the idea of having one frontend for multiple servers instead of pushing hard on p2p or federation.

I do also still like irc, but haven't used it much in recent years because most of the people I talk to are using discord now.

I don't know what the "official" pronunciation is, but I would say "Chat-o" is probably right.

OCR is a decent use-case for smaller models. I've had good experience using gemma for OCR'ing handwritten stuff that tesseract doesn't do so well on.

But for 2, probably only useful if you have a huge batch workload you want to get done quicker and don't want the local hardware for it?

Would you see using a vpn as the better alternative to a bastion host?

I've worked at a couple places where prod is air-gapped except for the bastion host that allows access to prod. But the bastion itself is still behind a vpn. And of course each user still has separate user accounts on both the bastion box and prod boxes.

I can definitely see your point though that a bastion/jumpbox isn't enough by itself.

For some reason, I can only scroll down a little bit on medium articles and then firefox freezes that tab and won't let me scroll up or down. I assume it has something to do with adblock, but I've noticed it a lot recently.

what model(s) did you end up using with pi?

I want to move away from claude but don't have the hardware for "good" local llms, and would rather use a ZDR api instead of one of the big apis for privacy reasons.

fwiw when I opened the site, my fans spun up and firefox slowed a lot. No idea what it's doing, but it's definitely using a ton of cpu.

have you tried using proton//steam on linux lately? I find almost every game I want to play actually works decently well now. The ones that don't are multiplayer/online ones that require some sort of anti-cheat.

If you already use jira, maybe try putting the specs directly in the jira ticket? And/or in a confluence page?

I'm not sold on SDD yet, but part of that is because we already have decently detailed tickets and designs.

Gotcha, I guess I should have asked if you were using 'claude -p' or something else to re-use the subscription.

It looks pretty interesting though, I'll give it a shot

Don't forget to watch SGU too, and I think there were a few other movies too?

Any idea if claude code will continue working with paseo after the billing/usage changes in a couple weeks?

Did you set up solar nodes in random spots or only areas you own/control?

I've wondered if it'd be legal to just chuck a couple into some random trees.

Sometimes I feel bad that I lost years of chat history from then too, but you made me realize that might be a good thing.

It might be too late, but have you thought about using something like ledger/beancount for the storage?

Having a nice tui/plaid sync for plaintextaccounting would be nice.

Why not actually use smtp+imap/pop3 if that is the intention?

Also I'm going to complain a little bit about the name: SMTP is for sending (not reading) mail, so asmtp to me at first glance looked like 'async-smtp' which didn't really make sense. And 'agent-smtp' sounds like "let your agents send e-mail" vs an api spec.
