I used a Pi 4 as a home server for literal years. For a lot of light work, the Pi works great, consumes very little power, and (before the 5) required no active cooling. I understand that if you're running machine learning pipelines at home, you might want a mini PC. But it feels like most developers severely overestimate how much CPU power you need to run most services.
Sigh. Maybe the Clicks Communicator (at 13cm tall) will get my money.
I've worked on docs at quite a few companies at this point. Almost every company I've ever seen has built a Rube Goldberg machine and totally overengineered their docs for reasons I simply can't understand. It's funniest when the overengineering doesn't even solve problems better than the vanilla solutions out there like AsciiDoctor and Sphinx. So many useless checks. So much unmaintainable javascript and styling. So many botched search and AI chat implementations. And don't even get me started on Vale, which generally just annoys the hell out of contributors instead of helping them.
Great work on the site, Tangled. Your docs site contains useful instructions and a sidebar that clearly communicates an organization structure. It doesn't peg my CPU or RAM. It's amazing how that makes your site better than 90% of docs sites out there.
One tip: could you add a favicon? Bonus points if it's slightly distinct from your main site's favicon so I can distinguish docs tabs at a glance.
If it wasn't for Apple Silicon and its stellar impact on battery life, I'd be gone. iOS 26 might make it happen anyway!
- food, a thing that literally every human needs every 24 hours (really 6-12) to continue to live
- GenAI, a new product with dubious value that contributes significantly to the systemic enshittification of the US and global economy?
FYI whataboutism is a well known (and honestly quite lazy) fallacy and propaganda strategy: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Whataboutism
I'm not sure it's such a terrible idea to disable quarantining if you know what you're doing -- I think of it as more of a safety net for the truly clueless. If it annoys you a lot, disabling it is totally fine. But of course users should be aware that it's better to leave it enabled!
I'm glad OP shared a way to permanently disable it for homebrew casks, though. I didn't know that env var existed, and this is a pretty common issue for smaller casks. Take a look at the GitHub issues for any small project and you'll see just how much this comes up.
Decent summary post here: https://www.lambdalatitudinarians.org/techblog/2025/01/09/th...
Until autonomous vehicles reach "read a book or fall asleep" levels, this is all I'm interested in. No thank you to any dumb "autopilot" system that I can't actually trust, but tries to control my wheel.
FYI: even now, monitors aren't necessarily shipping with the latest firmware. They've improved response times significantly since the early firmware, so it's likely worth your while to update the firmware when you get the monitor. Sadly you need a Windows computer to update the firmware -- if you manage to run the updater via Wine, let me know!
Wow indeed. A real-world life hack!
It still boggles my mind that mermaid's devs think you need an entire freakin' browser to render an SVG. Sometimes I think people need to be reminded of the fundamentals.
