I wonder if mozilla's container tabs blocks this type of tracking?

We should be able to train an agent to mentor junior devs and have senior devs allocate one session a week for progress report from the mentor. The hardest part is to keep them away from ai. Ironically we may have to build guardrails against Jr talent using AI, to ensure their natural coding growth and skills development. Even if we have to place them in coding enclaves.

I think this is a Global phenomenon guys. In my humble opinion STEAM kids will need to be assigned 2 agents (quite honestly, I think every kid)... a digital brain and a digital tutor(s). We also have to revamp the entire curriculum, just hear me out; Why do we not memorize binary or assembly in computer science? Why do we allow calculators after a certain grade? Because we have abstracted large portions of the lower level structures in those disciplines. The medical industry is suppose to be revamping requirements for medical professions, and I think the STEAM programs should do the same.

We have to do something tho. Today I was thinking out loud how it would be awesome if we could build a middle ground party around mamdani and company, along with like minded individuals. Sure he couldn't run for President, but what if the Party was different in it's constitutional structure. What I'd party power was divided into two heads, chairman(who vehemently defends the brand), and the political leader (charismatic figure dujur). This setup would mimic nature, close to perfect ecosystems in nature make use of antagonistic forces to maintain balances and preserve environment. This thir party would exist smack in the middle of the spectrum. Let the Oligarchs have the republican party, and let the corporatist/wall-street/speculators have the Democratic party. The Pleb/people can build a new modern real and functional party in 2026. Why Mamdani?? He just achieved what seems like an impossible fiscal feat, in your face Bezos and his bold claim that taxing the Rich won't make a difference. Honestly guys, the Mandani movement has gained cosmic gravity power with that move, I'm talking probably surpassing Bill Clinton's mobilization and even the legendary "yes we can" of Obama fame. Even if he cannot run for President. We'll make him Governor of the new Moderate Centric Progressive People's Party. First constitutional commandment: Though shalt not take candy from Corporations.

I am confused with the church's stand on this. If it is a genuine moment in time that the created begin to create on their own accord, then why not promote the distribution of these ai creations to us, so we can boost our productivity and carry on for another millenia or two. Or is it that this creation truly gives us independence from church, state, and consumerism? and that frightens them? Remember that there are 3 main powers in the world, political, religious and consumerism. CHina is aggressively pursuing humanoid droids. I can't wait to have one droiding(manning) my homestead. The task of animal husbandry, aquaponics, etc, will be childsplay then.

bzmrgonz — Wed, 20 May 2026 14:28:13 +0000

wow, that's a lot of time... I wonder if we can offset that time by doing one HIIT exercise a week. there's a group of people trying to crank up SPRINTING-SATURDAYS as a thing on youtube (sprintingproject). I like the idea because the body has 6 days to recover, there's no way to cause damage with 6 day recovery.

you're right, the other SOTA's are megacorp whic have no interest in spinning off their AI to stand alone.

Am I correct in thinking it's a race to who launches IPO now? I mean among the SOTA models. Especially since OpenAI has been given the all-clear by the court.

This article resonates with me, mainly, because I think there is one technology, or maybe 2 which can free us, but they will disrupt so much of our technology, that I doubt they will be allowed to exist. Solar flying/hovering craft (aka antigravity) and farming androids. Currently, we are trapped in the 2-dimentional plane of transportation. If we move it to 3d, we wont need roads, grids and even cities(maybe just marker/shopping hubs. As for the droids, we have rhe answer to cheap food production but we are too lazy for manual labour.

Here is how I see it. Imagine you're an old fashioned Police Precinct. You're thinking of building a K9 unit. The FDE in this article, is a K9 officer, who will come along with a puppy shepherd(ai agents), and stay at your precinct until the puppy is ready for his first patrol. The ideal scenario, is for your precinct, to equip some of your officers with puppies(ai agents), and mirror the FDE. Guys, this is literally a rehash of SAP deployments. You guys remember those? A team of outsiders would come in and transition your workflow and processes to SAP. In this case, it's more like a traffic controller equipped with ai agents to assist him with the toil, and he serves as "human-in-the-middle".

What about dynamic credentials. Why can't we deploy HSM(hardware security module), they are so much more affordable now. We then deploy fido2 keys, have our long lived keys in there and have HSM serve as dynamic credentials server.

Strix was so close to being the hero we deserve. I think these blue torches like strix should offer their services for free to open source ships out at sea. There are 3 wins here, GLOBAL GOOD WILL, testimonial and reviews, and market loyalty reward.

Care to share your multi-site strategy? I've been investigating ways to program billing alerts, which should alert me when bill is at xx%. There are a few ways, so that makes it more paletable. It just boils my blood when these big platforms don't offer it as a feature. THAT IS JUST PURE UNADULTERATED EVEIL, IT SOULD BE CRIMINAL REALLY!!

Also, it looks like there are egress charges to download R2 object storage. So he day we choose to exit stage left, we will be taxed. Wanna setup independent backups for compliance, we will get taxed on egress. Am I reading this right guys??

Welp, it looks like if you selfhost, the sandboxing of plugins benefit goes out thr window from what I'm reading. What kind of open source is that? Opencore? More like openinsecure, for thr security version, pay the Piper. I might still give it a try, but I sure hope we can put monthly monetary ceiling, had ceilings on our accounts. Anyone knows if cost-caps are possible on CLOUDFLARE??

Can you expand on this, specifically how it compares with jamf? It is a direct competitor to jamf right? Essentially Apple vying to eat their lunch right?
