So to free up space you delete folders instead of moving your familyvphotos that you don't have backup.

Can we stop a bit this all evil Microsoft fault?

And the author have a solution. Yeah those headline are buzzing.

Docker is hard to setup. The author made a nice solution but not sure if he know devcontainer and what he can do. You do the setup once and you roll in most dev tools. I'm still surprised the effort people put in such solution ignore the dev's core requirements, like sharing the env they use in a simple way. You used it to have custom env and isolate the agent. You want to persist your credentials? Mount the target folder from home or sl into a sub folder. Might be knowledge. But for Linux or even Windows/Mac as long you don't need desktop fully. Devcontainer is simple. A standard that works. And it's very mature.

Isn't this mainly a skill injected in the context? Rather a model/platform specific feature?

Ollama is quite a bad example here. Despite popular, it's a simple wrapper and more and more pushed by the app it wraps llama.cpp.

Don't understand here the parallel.

You can improve a lot the success rate with providing HELM and clear instructions with the tool description.

Over a year ago had a lot of issues and the description and example was the difference between 30-50% failure to 1%!

So I'm surprised a bit about the point. May be I'm missing it.

Why in nushell? Not in go?

But I like the idea and principle. OSS need this and it's traded very lightly.

Claims as always misleading as they don't show the context length or prefill if you use a lot of context. As it will be fun waiting minutes for a reply.

Issue llama.cpp is shipped and no more updated. Or you need to download it all.

This is killing me with complexity. We had agents.md and were supposed to augment the context there. Now back to cursor rules and another md file to ingest.

May be Mozilla have a point.

Chat apps, are replacing a lot the old way we consume information and search. That is mostly made thru browser. So I see the vision is follow this transformation to keep market share and offer an alternative to big players.

Mozilla and Firefox loosing market share and revenue too and that could bite back.

Ok and then? Those models were not trained for this purpose.

It's like the last hype over using generative AI for trading.

You might use it for sentiment analysis, summarization and data pre-processing. But classic forecast models will outperform them if you feed them the right metrics.

Previous report blaming TPlink slow to patch a CVE were already outdated as the CVE got patched. Yes TPlink are recieving updates if the products are not EOL. And even US products when EOL are vulnerable.

Seem more heavy lobbying to get their US marketshare here rathar than looking for secure products.

Also the report from checkpoint over firmware used to attache EU, the malware is firmware agnostic. As it can be used for other hardware.
