I worked in the networking group for a cloud computing company. You've heard of them. We didn't charge for (some) DNS traffic, so some customers figured out how to use DNS as a transport mechanism to skirt around paying data transfer fees. It would essentially be a DoS attack which affected EVERY customer, so a few could save tiny fractions of their overall spend. A peer team of mine had to deal with the mess. That team had > 100% annual staff turnover, because they just made the oncall staff deal with the problem every time it showed up rather than ever solve the core issue of having a DoS vector masquerading as a feature.

fwiw, i always make my first PR to an open source as simple / uncomplicated as possible. Something like a spelling or grammar fix in documentation. It's a litmus test for how much drama I will need to face on the more complicated code issues to follow. When the project owners ignore or reject simple stuff, I generally wander off somewhere else.

OMG. I wanted to get the end, but I was doing it on mobile. I upswiped once, and leftswiped once, so it took THREE tries. The first two tries were each more than 10 minutes in. When I was finally, done, I realized I had skipped my planned workout.

Then it hit me: Point. made. dammit.

Nice! FWIW, The only nova model I see on the HuggingFace user space page is us.amazon.nova-pro-v1:0. I cloned the repo and added the other nova options in my clone, but you might want to add them to yours. (I would do a PR, but... I'm lazy and it's a trivial PR :-)).
