Also, all spam messages.

It might be related to earlier attacks on Codeberg because of their open support of diversity, equity and inclusion.

I host routing for customers across the US, so yes I need it all. There are ways to solve the problem with less memory but the point is that some problems really do require a huge amount of memory because of data scale and performance requirements.

Nope. Some algorithms are fastest when a whole data set is held into memory. You could design it to page data in from disk as needed, but it would be slower.

OpenTripPlanner as an example will hold the entire road network of the US in memory for example for fast driving directions, and it uses the amount of RAM in that ballpark.

May be spam. No other sites seem to be carrying this story besides this one that does not appear to a news outlet and is infested with VPN ads.

Simple means different things to different people.

I self-host Ghost and find it pleasant to use and low maintenance. It is a single Docker container plus MySQL. I recommend a reverse proxy in front of it like Nginx. There are importers from many other blog formats.

This is interesting, I would be quite impressed if this PR got merged without additional changes.

We’ll see. Whether it gets merged in any form, it’s still a big win for me because I finally was able to get some changes implemented that I had been wanting for a couple years.

are you able to read and and have a decent understanding of the output code?

Yes. I know other coding languages and CSS. Sometimes Claude generated code that was correct but I thought it was awkward or poor, so I had it revise. For example, I wanted to handle a boolean case and it added three booleans and a function for that. I said no, you can use a single boolean for all that. Another time it duplicated a bunch of code for the single and multi-monitor cases and I had it consolidate it.

In one case, It got stuck debugging and I was able to help isolate where the error was through testing. Once I suggested where to look harder, it was able to find a subtle issue that I couldn’t spot myself. The labels were appearing far too small at one point, but I couldn’t see that Claude had changed any code that should affect the label size. It turned out two data structures hadn’t been merged correctly, so that default values weren’t getting overridden correctly. It was the sort of issue I could see a human dev introducing on the first pass.

do you know why it is uncommented?

Yes, that’s the fix for supporting floating windows. The author reported that previously there was a problem with the z-index of the labels on these windows, so that’s apparently why it was implemented but commented out. But it seems due to other changes, that problem no longer exists. I was able to test that labels on floating windows now work correctly.

Through the process, I also became more familiar with Rust tooling and Rust itself.

It’s not great that four changes are rolled into a single PR, but that’s my issue not Claude’s because they were related and I wanted to test them all at once.

This weekend I successfully used Claude to add three features in a Rust utility I had wanted for a couple years. I had opened issue requests, but no else volunteered. I had tried learning Rust, Wayland and GTK to do it myself, but the docs at the time weren’t great and the learning curve was steep. But Claude figured it all out pretty quick.

But it’s not self-hosted and I’m not sure it supports offline reading.

It isn’t hard when every works perfectly but there is a tremendous amount of complexity in some of these apps and a huge range of quality, documentation and required env vars and mounts.

And so, so many ways for things to break.

For work apps, you can “contact an admin” if you can’t access TOTP. Some other services also have account recovery options if you lose that access.

In other cases, I think you are screwed because you opted into requiring a second factor then lost it.

You still have manage upgrades due security vulns in all the features you are ignoring.

Nothing in the UX here conveys that you should open a second Authenticator on a second device. And what if you aren’t logged into the second Authenticator? Is a third one needed on a third device? And if you aren’t logged into the third?

The original TOTP phone apps don’t require their own login. The protection is provided by the mobile OS.

Microsoft is making this complex it’s not usable.

Yes. DMZ on router 1 exposes router 2 IP to internet.

No, this is all happening in the browser, there are no other image manipulation tools being called.

I just tested the new release. Consider defaulting PNGs to convert to JPEGs unless they have a PNG-specific feature like transparency. Lots of screenshots are initially PNGs, but not because they need any PNG-specific features. Consider: In a test screenshot, it compressed 3.4% with the default 80% setting and PNG->PNG, but for PNG->JPG, it compressed 84.6%.

MCP sounds like a standardized way for AI clients to connect to data sources, the Model Context Protocol.

It sounds like it may compete some with Google’s A2A protocol, which is for AI agent to agent communication.

Both share the same goal of making services easier for AI to consume.

The top-rated answer to this question on the Security StackExhange is “not really”. https://security.stackexchange.com/questions/189726/does-it-improve-security-to-use-obscure-port-numbers

On Serverfault, the top answer is that random SSH ports provide “no serious defense” https://serverfault.com/questions/316516/does-changing-default-port-number-actually-increase-security

Or the answer here, highlighting that scanners check a whole range ports and all the pitfalls of changing the port.
