The actual requirement is not: a centralized console where macOS antivirus updates are pushed to all user devices.
We take security very seriously but this is not the way.

We do run that on our Linux servers. For macbooks, ClamAV makes very little sense. Besides, they mandate we centrally manage that, too.

The full story didn't fit in the title.
They want evidence of the antivirus updates for our macbooks being centrally managed by some tool (quote-unquote: WSUS). I get this is how some enterprises operate, but for our small shop we're talking a handful of macbooks that have access to even anything. And even so the people who operate those are contractually obligated to run a very tight ship (encrypted disks, auto updates (which includes XProtect, apple's native antivirus so to speak), 2FA on all services, etc), tunnelling on unprotected wifi, etc.
We sent evidence of all of this. But they really want centrally managed antivirus for our macbooks.

This looks really nice but it’s good to point out that this project can use the Ollama HTTP API or any other API, but does not run models itself. So not a replacement to Ollama, but rather to the Ollama npm. Perhaps that was obvious because the post is about that, but I briefly thought this could run models too.

A respectable person offering nuance can be shattering if you identify as pro- or anti something.
I wish we had an easier time talking about ideas with a little more detachment.

antirez thank you for talking some sense. I’ve seen skilled devs discard LLMs entirely based on seeing one (too many) hallucinations, then proclaiming they are inferior and throwing the baby away with the bathwater. There is still plenty of use to be had from them even if they are imperfect.

Like LogicBlox received so much community love? I’m a Nix user and their paying $9k/mo for this never amounted to me learning their name. Could say a lot about me but could also say a lot about how appealing it will be to sponsor this.
Could be changed tho, Nix leadership should brainstorm how to make this an attractive thing to sponsor. Feature name prominently on site, conferences, social media, even CLI(?).

It’s not, but then I also don’t have a word yet for what I’ve been up to all day yesterday :)

> “those affected have already been notified via personal and work email”
Even for remote staff, there are many more human ways of informing someone they are out of a job than shooting an email. Am I the only one who feels that way? Is it actually better to get an email an process the blow in async? Genuinely curious as I didn’t see this comment yet.
