Just wanted to say a huge thankyou for being so patient in the forum; it's quite annoying that the comment section is a more a function of the title + personal opinions than a function of the blog content.

I love using obsidian, and thanks so much for all the work that you and the team have put in :)

Confused here - setting up certs to MITM https requests to add a header seems like a decently big security risk?

I also see 577, so must be human testers action count. Also watched the replay, the solve seems different to mine.

Top non-ad google result for "polymarket" in Australia is a crypto scam

rtrgrd — Mon, 16 Feb 2026 03:52:28 +0000

Querying

https://www.google.com/search?q=polymarket

in Australia leads straight to a crypto scam. The scam website (polymarkets.*) seems to be 'organically' on the top. Perhaps this is because polymarket is banned in Aus?

I would suspect that for self hosted LLMs, quality >>> performance, so the newer releases will always expand to fill capacity of available hardware even when efficiency is improved.

New comment by rtrgrd in "Agentic Browser Security: Indirect Prompt Injection in Perplexity Comet"

rtrgrd — Sun, 24 Aug 2025 13:54:58 +0000

The blog mentions checking each agent action (say the agent was planning to send a malicious http request) against the user prompt for coherence; the attack vector exists but it should make the trivial versions of instruction injection harder

I've never used Kagi before and wanted to try: how does Kagi stack up against Brave search?

I assume the high volume of search traffic forces Google to use a low quality model for AI overviews. Frontier Google models (e.g. Gemini 2.5 pro) are on-par, if not 'better', than leading models from other companies.

Generally agree with the ideas of the article and wanted to know more about what a 'makerist' movement for AI would be like.
