Playground | ty An in-browser playground for ty, an extremely fast Python type-checker written in Rust. types.ruff.rs [1] ty, has a playground running at types.ruff.rs. You can edit code in there and see what the type checker results would be in browser. This looks good, excited to see it running in my lsp. Here is an example where a Optional may not be defined. [2] Checking for existance before using it resolves the issue. [3] Note This post is a thought [4].

3D Printable Power Brick Bracket Designer Generate custom 3D printable power brick brackets for your devices. Design and export your own mounting solutions. Bracket Engineer · bracket.engineer [1] This is madness that Wes Bos made this with manifold.js and no openscad! Yes, I have these stupid brackets everywhere, yes, I hand model my own brackets. No I don’t do it enough. I don’t like that these model generators like openscad cannot make fillets and chamfers, but I appreciate the heck out of the speed and automation you can make iterations of things.

661: Working Vacations, Ripping Out JavaScript, and Non-US Cloud Service Options What are the non-US cloud services options, falling off the blogging train and trying to get back on, working on vacation, Chris recaps the Alaskan Folk Festival experience, how often do you go bac… ShopTalk · shoptalkshow.com [1] Chris hit me where it feels about 10 minutes in. He said he has not been writing on his site as much lately and how hard it is to get back in. He mentions having a baby idea of a post, but then having the thought do you really want to come back from a long break with this! Momentum is a b**** when you got it you cant stop, and when you don’t you can’t stop. Note This post is a thought [2].

A quote from Mark Zuckerberg You also mentioned the whole Chatbot Arena thing, which I think is interesting and points to the challenge around how you do benchmarking. How do you know what models are … Simon Willison’s Weblog · simonwillison.net [1] Interesting how confidently he says we can easily go to the top. really makes you wonder what we the normies are leaving on the table by using these general purpose models and what could be achieved with really tuned in models. Could I make an automatic blog tagger more accurately, maybe smaller, maybe tuned so well it runs fine on cpu? Note This post is a thought [2].

Helm - Postiz Documentation Install Postiz using Kubernetes and Helm Postiz Documentation · docs.postiz.com [1] I didn’t realize that postiz had a helm chart, I just hand rolled mine based on the compose file they provide. I went from running the compose stack locally to running in my homelab [2] with kubernetes. I am using cnpg rather than a postgres container which I really like the workflow of as far as backup and restore. The one hiccup I ran into was changing the domain from localhost to my homelab domain killed all of my integrations and they needed the redirect url updated. Note This post is a thought [3].

- This is a wild concept for a slicer, essentially he didn’t even make a slicer just a crazy pre-process and post prossess to cura slicer, deforming the part until it doesn’t have any overhangs, creating a normal planar slice, then undeforming the output from cura. He also mentions that the rapid moved needed modified as well. I’m assuming this is because they are generally long distances and not short, without breaking these long lines up we would still end up wtih a straight line after deform.

Marp: Markdown Presentation Ecosystem Marp (also known as the Markdown Presentation Ecosystem) provides an intuitive experience for creating beautiful slide decks.

- How to make an entire clickable without presenting the entire content of the card as the link title. These videos are great, I’ve ran into these types of problems so many times, and definitely did not know about things like isolate to keep the z-index scoped to one element. - isolate - scope z-index inside this element so that it does not leak out. - [.relative [.absolute, inset-0, z-10]] - the inset zero is a modern shorthand for zeroing all sides, top-0, right-0, bottom-0, left-0.

- This is an absolute banger of a review by prime and Dylan Beetle. I love the similar takes with different perspectives, would really like to see them podcast together, but this one way style interview does really well to cover a lot of issues in open source, rug pulls, version pinning, thankless maintainers, what its like to open source from a large company.

Perils of Self-Hosting We speak to Kevin and Patricia from Traefik, discuss Alex's recent ZFS snafu and we wonder if the new Chromecasts can match up to the Nvidia Shield. Self-Hosted · selfhosted.show [1] Interesting takes on Diun here. I agree that I like to be in control of updates and pinning not to latest. both seemed like they weren’t going to run it because they can look up the latest version. Maybe I need to be less aggressive on keeping things up to date and its a me problem. I just got diun setup and hooked into ntfy, and I kinda like the automated checklist of new images that I can review and update. To be a bit more clear, having control over changes coming in from others, even if I dont care to see the changelog, it is nice to roll out an update, have it in your git [2] history, watch it deploy and work like before, if not roll back and read the changelog. For internal applications I’m down for automated releases like argo image updater give you, this thing has already gone through review, launch the damn thing at least to a dev space.

Spring 2025: Self-Hosted Update The one where things plod along. dbushell.com · dbushell.com [1] Davids blogs always have so many links that send me down new rabbit holes. Interesting that his experience with smart home is turning away, I’ve been somewhat interested for awhile, but never fully pulled the trigger on buying things. I really hope tailscale enshitification does not take off, but really for me, I barely use it even as a homelabber. Idk why, but every other homelabber praises it so much and I just dont find myself using it. Note This post is a thought [2].

Diun Receive notifications when a Docker image is updated on a Docker registry crazymax.dev [1] Diun, looks like a very interesting tool to monitor for image updates, it does not make any change, it only makes notifications. This feels like an easy start to getting image updates started with low effort, keep git [2] ops, but requires manual updates. I see this as a tool that would be a great start and pair well with automated image updaters to ensure they are working as expected. Note This post is a thought [3].
