It is the weekend. Most people use this site to avoid doing work.

Edit: whoops, it is Friday! Gave myself a long weekend, and was just default thinking it is Saturday.

I notice that the python versions and typescript versions are pretty different. Python is sort of class based, with python magic decorators

    class MyWorkflow(Workflow):
        @step
        async def start(self, ctx: Context, ev: StartEvent) -> MyEvent:
            num_runs = await ctx.get("num_runs", default=0)

whereas TS is sort of builder/function based

    import { createWorkflow } from "@llamaindex/workflow-core";
    
    const convertEvent = workflowEvent();
    
    const workflow = createWorkflow();
    
    workflow.handle([startEvent], (start) => {
      return convertEvent.with(Number.parseInt(start.data, 10));

Is there reason for this? });

Maybe the Key Changes page would be a better link if we're concerned with a specific version?

Agree, thanks for the link. I was wondering what actually changed. The resource links and elicitation look like useful functionality.

I've been curious to see the process for selecting relevant context from a long conversation. has anyone reverse engineered what that looks like? how is the conversion history pruned, and how is the latest state of a file represented?

I recently did something similar. Using uv workspaces, I used the uv CLI's dependency graph to analyze the dependency tree then conditionally trigger CI workflows for affected projects. I wish there was a better way to access the uv dependency worktree other than parsing the `tree` like output

Hi. I appreciate your feedback. Basically, juvio stores all of the project requirements (versions of the packages and of the python interpreter) directly within the notebook itself using the PEP 723 spec. Then, when you open the notebook, a new ephemeral environment is created on the fly with all of the required dependencies. Therefore, you don't have to maintain a separate e.g. requirements.txt/conda.yaml/uv.lock file.

This is cool and something that I’ve wanted, but I don’t see hot listings requirements inline foregoes the need for a lock file to maintain reproducibility. What about version ranges? Versions of transitive dependencies?

Anyone have any experience webscraping from a Starlink IP? My assumption is you could stay under the radar due to cg nat, but it's not exactly something I want to be the first to find out about.

lyjackal · 10 months ago

Mobile 4g USB sticks you can usually rotate your IP address by reconnecting. I tried on a pi, it was inconsistent. This was just with some random test mobile plan from rando carrier renting off Verizon I think

https://undetectag.com I developed a device that turns an Airtag on and off at specific intervals. Current Airtags are detectable right away and cannot be used to track stolen property. That device allows you to hide an Airtag in your car, for example, and someone that steals your car will not be able to use some app to detect it. The Airtag will also not warn the thief of its presence. After some hours, the Airtag turns on again and you can find out its location. It’s not foolproof, as the timing has to be right, but still useful.

lyjackal · 10 months ago

An idea for more complete coverage: have 2 of them, and invert their intervals, such that one and only one is always on

That is not true; first he says it's "tens of millions of dollars well spent," followed by "you never know". I don't think he knows.

I’ve wondered whether they use thanks as a signal to a conversation well done, for the purpose of future reinforcement learning

I don't understand why people struggle with either site. Follow only people you want to see. Both sites allow you to only see posts from those accounts. Problem solved.

lyjackal · a year ago

It's more the content creators who bear the brunt of toxic rage. Who you follow doesn't solve that problem
