Just today, I tried to run docker compose on a remote host via podman-docker on Fedora (Asahi). I ran into all sorts of buildx issues, and the easiest fix for me was to remove podman and install docker instead.
I tried working through it with Claude, but after a few failed attempts I gave up. I'd like to use podman, but the docker compose + buildx compatibility gaps made it more trouble than it was worth for now. I'm definitely going to try it again.
That's a valid concern. I took a more constrained approach for web searches for exactly this reason. Instead of giving the LLM full browser control, I built a Firefox extension that only handles web search client-side.
When my local LLM (llama.cpp) needs to search, it opens DuckDuckGo in a new window, loads the result pages in tabs, extracts content with Readability.js, and feeds it back. You stay in the loop - can see what's loading, solve captchas if needed. Less autonomous than Comet/Playwright, with a narrower use-case, but also less risk.
Thx, I cannot change my previous message, the QH is set to private, as me and my students are working on it. It will be made public next month. The qh:// protocol, we have just started, and we only focused on simplifying the header as an alternative to HPACK / QPACK. Currently we are collecting headers for identifying what should go into our static table for lookup, and for benchmarking. For simplicity, we decided against dynamic tables or huffman-style encoding/decoding. Just a table with often used header/values, the rest is binary encoded with no further compression.
UDP-based protocols are well suited for P2P, since hole punching is straightforward if you have predictable port mapping, you cannot disallow it. In that spirit, we are currently exploring this with:
The main idea is to have a simple encryption (ed25519/chacha20+poly1305) for encryption in the transport layer, on top of that then qh, where certs are use for signing content.
With out of band key exchange, you can establish a connection after you successfully punched a hole.
