Another option, if you already have terminal open, is to drag the file/folder from Finder into your terminal window. The path will be pasted there.

Probably a routing issue. Shot in the dark would be that one of these routers is NATing traffic, and the other router doesn’t have a route to that NAT’d range.

It’s interesting to observe and build LLM-driven solutions in Networking.

The biggest challenges that most of us networking people have are around velocity (how fast we can build and scale networks) and how effectively we can operate them (avoid defects, fix them fast when something breaks).

LLMs are great in both areas. AI helps with deployment challenges by speeding up tooling development and the creation of workflows on orchestration platforms. A manual process step today, say - reserving an IP address in an IP DB — is automated the next day instead of on a backlog for years. This post is an example of that (config-gen/config-deploy).

Operations use-cases are more interesting, IMO, and address the “too many signals” problems that we face. Network substrate telemetry, overlay telemetry, service host metrics, service metrics, customer metrics, recent change data, prior alarms - the list goes on. Being a network operator is not for the faint of heart and is under-mentioned on high stress job lists. AI makes AMAZINGLY good network operations triage agents, since they are able to immediately process so many signals.

Exciting times!

It seems odd that such a tiny proportion would run `discoverable=yes`. Any idea why that is? It makes me question the numbers.

My home lab has grown over the years, now consisting of a physical Proxmox cluster, and a handful of servers (RaspPi and micro hosts). A couple years back I got tired of failures related to host-level Docker issues, so I got a NAS and started using NAS storage for everything I could.

I also re-investigated containerization - weighing Docker Swarm vs K3s - and settled on Docker Swarm.

I’ve hated it ever since. Swarm is a PITA to use and has all kinds of failure modes that are different than regular old Docker Compose.

I’ve considered migrating again - either to Kubernetes, or just back to plain Docker - but haven’t done it. Maybe I should look at Uncloud?

Same, one of my very first gaming experiences. Nothing but great nostalgia!

Huge nostalgia wave seeing some of these. Many of them are hard for me to pinpoint but unmistakably familiar.

My first website was a geocities site back in ~1999, which was dedicated to StarCraft. I wish I could find it now; I remember it being really aesthetically pleasing - it would be funny to see how it held up.

“At the primary moment of disruption, we saw YemenNet (aka TeleYemen) lose transit from BICS (AS6774) and Global Cloud Xchange (AS15412) at 22:32 UTC and revert to satellite service from BusinessCom (AS197206)”

It’s never good when your primary ISP’s only connection out to the world is via satellite

Amazon Prime’s price hikes have a predictable cadence: * 2014: $79 to $99

* 2018: $99 to $119

* 2022: $119 to $139

We should expect a price hike from $139 to $159 in 2026, assuming the trend continues.

This was not my experience, reflecting on about 10 years of service in AWS network engineering (both as an engineer and manager). I’m at Oracle now, which, by contrast, is orders of magnitude more focused on revenue/spend.

That was their Digits box.

You’re almost always going to bottleneck on your home internet or upstream ISP, rather than this local interface. That being said, you aren’t going to be waiting too long either way, depending on download speed. Deepseek R1 is 671GB. Multiply by 8 to get into bits: 5368Gb At full 10gbps (which, again, you probably won’t get): 5368Gb / 10gbps = 537 seconds to download 537s / 60 = 8.95 minutes. Call it 10m with overhead.

The larger question isn’t if we feel or not. One of the questions is: is our “window” into consciousness occurring before or after decisions are made.

If it’s before, then you can easily tie consciousness and free will together. If not, we are effectively watching videos of our bodies operate. Oh - and there is no spoon.

What was your method of invoking Claude, out of curiosity?
