<p>OpenRouter could enable/disable models/provider based on user. They could allow users to "self-regulate", if you are working on a government project disable access to deepseek (model or API). Not sure if that would be enough since no one can vouch for open source libraries. How do you know no one submitted PR to some 3 levels deep transient dependency package using deepseek? Only way to be somewhat sure is to ban open source. To me this looks like attempts to ban VPNs.</p>

<p>If I was to repurpose Hubble to be a spy satellite I would paint it black... I know it's not that simple due to sun radiation (including heat), they where probably coated with some mat black material or something to avoid this kind of detection. I'm just guessing since Hubble looks like it's wrapped in aluminum foil.</p>

<p>Not Honeywell. In consumer market they are known only for storage and memory products, I didn't know they do anything else. Timing is also interesting because his regional management office is in Tel Aviv, so it could be just a conspiracy theory at his local office.</p>

<p>Thank you for sharing the talk.<p>> I encourage others who work in the public sector, whether directly or through a contractor, to read and internalize Don't Get Distracted by Caleb Hearth.<p>I know a guy who works for well-known hardware company. He isn't a software dev, but close enough, works with Verilog on hardware design and verification. One day he tells me how he is working on video processing module and he doesn't know if that module will be part of surveillance system, missile guidance or nanny cam. It's possible that even middle management doesn't know more than him, and very likely the module will find uses in multiple products. He is a small cogs in a large machine, maybe his work will save a baby's life, maybe it will kill a person, he cannot know.</p>

<p>Not sure if they support multiple OPDS catalogs now.<p>I am on v10 (using JF for music only) and with book plugin (forgot which one) it didn't offer to split books into multiple catalogs, which was a bit annoying. Maybe I missed it in v11. Solution for me was to vibecode a simplest OPDS server with 0 css and basic auth.</p>

<p>I often do hand write SVG icons. I know roughly what I want, it's less messy compared to using an editor (cleaner, smaller xml, easier to hand-edit later if needed). Path arc is my nemesis, otherwise it's not that hard. Pelican would take some time, but same as software development, you split it into smaller chunks and do one at the time.<p>Main problem in complex icon is remembering which (x, y) point is used in which element, <g> with background grid is helpful here. I was even thinking about making extended SVG language with variables for (x, y) points.</p>

<p>I am using SQLite as document db for a side project for years now. Made a custom repository base class that can also store blobs in separate columns, so this type of data is not part of the json document. Today there is also jsonb [1], as far as I remember all functions work the same for json and jsonb.<p>Also the repo class stores write and delete timestamps as separate columns so I can have CDC. CDC is used for building cached view models and is pushed to object storage every 5 minutes for backup as NDJSON. Another process on home server is restoring the db every couple of minutes for second backup and ready to use DB in case it's needed.<p>I know there are things like Litestream, I wanted something in process and something that can send alerts on failed backups.<p>[1] <a href="https://sqlite.org/jsonb.html" rel="nofollow">https://sqlite.org/jsonb.html</a></p>

<p>Sounds like MoE but more pluggable. Not sure if anyone is researching something like this. I still think your swift or GIS model will need basic reasoning and coding to work, so it's more like multiple smaller models which you can load as needed, e.g. sub-agents for GIS needs the GIS model.<p>Another approach would be to have basic coding and reasoning model and then load specification for language and libraries into context, it could work for self-hosted models, but I don't want whole specification of the language to be send to API and waste tokens on that.</p>
