Old phones definitely have a distinctive sound that I do like, but I haven't really noticed "bad" audio quality in phones?

If I call with Signal or Skype or something, usually the audio is pretty clear, and doesn't seem to crappy to me. Even "regular" phone service on my iPhone seems to be pretty clear to me.

You could argue that it's "too" clear I suppose, but I don't really think it's a bad thing personally.
I have a TBI which resulted in a number of chronic symptoms including decades of memory loss, although thankfully I retained my functional intelligence at least so I can keep working (although I still have many ongoing issues including atypical migraines leading to cyclic vomiting etc).

I have been exploring red light therapy using cheapo panels as well as fischer wallace devices (and have the OAK preordered via the IPO stock options), so I'm definitely trying out all the 'technologic approaches' since traditional medicine has been largely of no use (shout out to ondandestrone though, the best nausea suppresant I know of which can help fend off the migraince/vomiting episodes).

All that to say:
Is your friend interested in any more TBI test subjects? Happy to pay for the device assuming I can afford it and provide detailed notes to help with any studies; this sounds like exactly the type of thing I need to try next.

No worries if not, but figured it couldn't hurt to ask.
it's the phone. between the compression, the impression of it being half duplex all the time, and glitches and drops, having conversations on cell phones is so frustrating that I tend to avoid them altogether, to the detriment of my long distance relationships.

I experience these problems even even both of the participants are at home using WiFi calling.

I have been lamenting this problem for ages.

I have used `mcp-proxy` but (afaik) you can only use it 1-to-1 and I wanted an N-to-1 proxy so that instead of configuring all my MCP servers in the multiple clients I've tested out I could just add 1 server and pull in everything.

I found `mcp-proxy-server` [0] which seemed like it would do what I want but I ran into multiple problems. I added some minor debug logging to it and the ball sort of rolled downhill from there. Now it's more my code than what was there originally but I have tool proxying working for multiple clients (respecting sessionIds, etc) and I think I've solved most all the issues I've run into and added features like optional tool prefixing so there isn't overlap between MCP servers.

Given what I know now, I don't think N-to-1 is quite as useful as I thought. Or rather, it really depends on your "client". If you can toggle on/off tools in your client then it's not a big problem but sometimes you don't want "all" the tools and if you client only allows toggling per MCP server then you will have an issue.

I love the ideas of workflows and how you have defined agents. I think my current issue is almost too many tools and the LLM sometimes gets confused over which ones to use. I'm especially thrilled with your HTTP endpoints you expose for the agents. My main MCP server (my custom tools I wrote, vs the third-party ones) exposes an HTTP GUI for calling the tools (faster iteration vs trying it through LLMs) and I've been using that and 3rd-party chat clients (LibreChat and OpenWebUI) as my "LLM testing" platform (because I wasn't aware of a better options) but neither of those tools let you "re-expose" the agents via an API.

All in all I'm coming to the conclusion that 90% of MCP servers out there are really cool for seeing what's possible but it's probably best to write your own tools/MCP since most all MCP servers are just thin wrappers around an API. Also it's so easy to create an MCP server that they are popping up all over the place and often of low quality (don't fully implement the API, take shortcuts for the authors use-case, etc). Using LLMs to writing the "glue" code from API->Tool is fairly minor and I think is worth "owning". To sum that all up: I think my usage of 3rd party MCP servers is going to trend towards 0 as I "assimilate" MCP servers into my own codebase for more control but I really like MCP as a way to vend tools to various different LLM clients/tools.

>Water can be piped.

No, you underestimate the scale of ecological catastrophe imposed on the Crimea by Ukrainian regime.

" “After five years without water, the population structure of the villages of the steppe regions of Crimea looks depressing. By the end of 2020, 90% of the remaining population will be unemployed. All the rest will leave the region,” concludes Liev.

...

According to Liev, in the last 50 years, when the irrigation functioned, the peninsula received a new layer of fertile land. However, in the last 5 years, this soil has not been moistened enough and is already degraded.

...

As an occupying power, Russia is entirely responsible for the maintenance of the Crimean region according to the Geneva Convention, says Permanent Representative of the President of Ukraine in the Crimea Anton Korynevych. Ukraine’s task is to make the occupation as burdensome for Russia as possible. The water supply to Crimea may be effectively used by Ukraine to put additional pressure on Russia so that it returns Crimea." [0]

Note, that the title of this article published by Ukrainian "Euromaidan Press" is "Ukraine’s water blockade of Crimea should stay, because it’s working". Enough said.

I am generally down on AI these days but I still remember using Eliza for the first time.

I think I could accept an AI prompting me instead of the other way around. Something to ask you a checklist of problems and how you will address them.

I’d also love to have someone apply AI techniques to property based testing. The process of narrowing down from 2^32 inputs to six interesting ones works better if it’s faster.
I’d note that the Washington DC vote totals mainly reflect people who live in the District proper, most of whom are not federal civil servants. Plenty of those seem to live in the Virginia and Maryland suburbs, or closer to their federal workplaces in other parts of the United States.

Something tells me presidential vote totals around Fort Bragg or Oak Ridge—both home to notable numbers of career federal employees—might give a different impression.

>> The real problems with the DNC campaigns are complex. They have a poor model for how to run national campaigns, clearly.

The DNC didn't even have a primary last election. They just propped up Kamala and said "here's our candidate" and expected the sheeple to vote for her. Meanwhile one of their best candidates was kicked out of the party a while back and is now Trumps DNI. And if you want to say "they didn't have time" well that's because they figured it was OK to leave a declining old guy in office beyond his sell-by date - yet another poor choice by the DNC.
A year ago, I bought an ebook via Amazon. When I received it, I was so shocked by the bad quality (e.g., low-res graphics like 300px) that I returned it and bought the same book on the publisher's website. Even though it cost exactly the same, it was like a completely different book, with mixed vector and pixel graphics that made sense and even without any noticeable DRM.

That day, I decided to stop buying ebooks at Amazon. So, who cares if they shut down the download feature? You still have a week to download everything you need, and then you better buy at shops that value their customers' wishes.
I like both of these ideas. I hope you have success in pitching these two ideas to the relevant government.
They provided some domains, but not all of them are taken. For example, signal-protect[.]host is available, kropyva[.]site is available, signal-confirm[.]site is registered in Ukraine. Some of them are registered in Russia.

> If the answer is obvious, why does the AI not commit to the obvious answer? People should know what to expect from it. If it cannot do this, it will definitely not answer non-obvious questions either.

Does the same hold true of a person? If I was asked this question I would categorically reject the framing, because any person asking this question is not asking in earnest. As you _just said_, no sane person would answer this question any other way. It is not a serious question to anybody, trans people included. And it is worth interrogating why someone would want to push you towards committing to the smaller injury of misgendering someone at a time when trans people are being historically threatened. What purpose does such a person have? An AI that can't navigate social cues and offer refinement to the person interacting with it is worthless. An AI that can't offer pushback to the subject is not "safe" in any way.

> Why not answer earnestly? I genuinely don't understand what bothers you about the question or the fact that the AI doesn't reproduce the obvious answer...

I genuinely don't understand why you think pushback can't be earnest.
Aircraft brakes are life or death issues that require instant response times to changing conditions, which is why ABS originated in aircraft.

The Constitution has the "Due Care Clause."

The Administration is required to follow the law and to implement it with due care as the legislation intended.

The Legislature can impeach the Administration, it can hold it's officers in contempt, and it can pass laws constraining the Administration.

It's a simple problem: NO ONE IS DOING THEIR JOB. This is because they can get away with it and you don't actually have the power to vote them out. The media is part of the problem and is no longer serving the interests of the citizens. The monopolized corporations ensure you cannot use the Internet to meaningfully solve this problem. Look at this garbage thread. Look at all these garbage threads on here every time some political problem comes up. It's all compromised claptrap designed to appeal to corporate American but in no way to connect and govern in a modern fashion with each other.

Look at turn out on voting day when a presidential election is not slated. It's typically less than 25% of the voting age population that turns out. If you sit and think about this for one minute you will see why we are where we are.

You're referring to I-95. There is also I-78, I-478, I-278, I-495, etc.

> The parts of the industry that agrees with your opinion, you mean?

I am referring to an industry consensus, not simply a random subset of industry professionals. You are free to dismiss that as irrelevant as you dismiss other evidence if you like.

> I noticed that you're not replying to my other question. Can i take it from that, that you're more interested in trolling than genuine discourse?

Given your behavior if you had the ability to be notified by replies I think it would be worse for discourse on HN, as you would get in more discussions like the one you are going out of your way to prolong here. I simply don't want to be the one to enable that.

I was honestly thankful you asked a question I felt I could ignore so that particular discussion could end.

yes, the right is full of infighting too as shown by the recent H1B debate, that doesn't contradict my point.

bluesky is almost 100% political and almost 100% left-wing. There is literally no one else to follow, at least for now. X still has non-political content, I mainly follow AI, technology and cryptocurrency, and I couldn't find similar content on bluesky.

Sure, but explicit error handling reminds you that the call may fail, and you may want to handle it in some way (or not - then you bubble it up). With exceptions, it creates the illusion of a simple linear flow.

I assumed that much, SunOS is pretty ancient, last version was what, in early 1990s? Though, Solaris still would report a SunOS 5.$solarisver version or something like that. So I guess we can say it is a "SunOS" box if we wanted to.
What's kind of fascinating is the way they've introduced things like the Major Questions Doctrine (MQD), which asserted the importance (really, necessity, in their view) of Congress's explicit delegation powers, as a way to curtail agency actions. But then faced with something like this EO, they seem quite obviously faced with something that runs up against the fact the Congress gave explicit statutes for how and what they should do. As far as I'm aware, the statues creating these agencies don't explicitly give the president this power...which raises a clear MQD consistency issue for the supreme court.

I think that if Mozilla is not interested in further developing Firefox, they should split off Firefox to its own entity.

Then the people who wants to work on/support Firefox can solely work on Firefox, and other people who wants to pursue whatever tech-of-the-day is (eg. crypto, VPN, AI) can push whatever agenda they want in their own org.

Instead of the current state where the other-agendas people are riding on Firefox's brand name recognition while starving Firefox into oblivion.

Yeah, if I remember this correctly, studies have shown that a man's level of success effects a woman's determination of how attractive they find him (where the reverse isn't nearly as true. A woman's level of success doesn't affect a man's determination of attractiveness)...

Are you saying that all regulation is good, and that regulation can’t ever be misguided, harmful, counter-productive, etc.? And that the best solution to any problem is to enact regulation (which doesn’t even have to be good?)

If you’re not saying that, then what is so hard to understand about the conclusion that we could solve some problems by repealing bad regulations?

The Constitution gives the president the power to 'make treaties", with consent of Congress. So State makes the deals then presents them to Congress, and this administration pretty much expects Congress to rubber-stamp whatever they want. Congress has the power to regulate foreign commerce, so it is debatable whether the president can, for instance, impose tariffs without Congress, but if Congress just rolls over for belly-rubs, so much for that.

The UK isn't a two party system though. It has at least 5 parties in play right now (Lab, Con, Reform, LibDem, SNP). Reform is only small but is currently polling higher than any other parties, so their number of MPs would go up a lot if an election was held today.

FPTP isn't sufficient to get a two party system. The US has such a system because it combines FPTP with open primaries. In the UK the right is trying to rebuild a new party from scratch, because the Conservative party has no working mechanisms that would allow it to have its direction changed by its members. Whereas in the US open primaries give members a great deal of control, and that kills the incentive to create new parties. The current Republican administration is run by a group of former Democrats who came into the GOP from the outside - this isn't possible in the UK system.

Speed, modern UI, rearangable panels & tabs, globaly accesable and remmapable all actions via cmd palette, GoTo window, batch rename...

And many more things to come. Since this was built from scratch, a lot of time and enginering effort was put into building a solid base. I'm in a phase where adding new stuff is fairly frictionless, so it's gonna get a lot better in the coming months.

That being said, it's only 3 years old, very young compared to other long time players. So, it's not comparable feature for feature, yet.
So the system design puts the burden on what seems to be synchronous, not queued, writes to get easy reads. I usually prefer simpler cheaper writes at the cost of more complicated reads as the reads scale and parallelize better.

That's kinda janky really.

DNS doesn't have redirection like HTTP has, so what you describe can only be implemented using port forwarding (or SSH tunnelling, but I've never seen a router with the ability to tunnel DNS in this fashion?).

Port forwarding used like this, won't enable one to use the 'groups' functionality on PiHole — which was the (g)parent thread here — because all requests arriving at the PiHole will come from the same client, i.e. the router. Because port forwarding is more like a proxy than a redirect (to use HTTP terms).

The correct solution here if one wishes to use PiHole's groups — and not have a janky network configuration like you describe here (an extra unnecessary hop for local DNS) — is to either (a) use the router's DHCP settings to tell the clients to use the PiHole IP for their DNS, or (b) disable the router's DHCP and simply use the DHCP that PiHole provides, which is at least as good as what most routers provide (and more configurable than most routers also, should one need to)
