Looking forward to the early bird launch. JMAP support from an email provider (other than fastmail) is great. Additionally, this seems like a good way to fund thunderbird apart from donations, while supporting open source email.

Another fun thing are these stable diffusion/controlnet combinations which create QR codes that at the same are AI generated art. e.g. qrdiffusion or qrbtf

Does a Banana Pi BPi-M5 fit your specs? The banana pis have pretty good networking options.

The reported 119GB vs. 128GB according to spec is because 128GB (1e9 bytes) equals 119GiB (2^30 bytes).

That can't be right because RAM has always been reported in binary units. Only storage and networking use lame decimal units.

Looks like Claude reported it based on this:

  ● Bash(free -h)
    ⎿                 total        used        free      shared  buff/cache   available
       Mem:           119Gi       7.5Gi       100Gi        17Mi        12Gi       112Gi
       Swap:             0B          0B          0B

That 119Gi is indeed gibibytes, and 119Gi in GB is 128GB.

You're barking up the wrong tree. Nobody's manufacturing power-of-ten sized DRAM chips for NVIDIA; the amount of memory physically present has to be 128GiB. If `free` isn't reporting that much usable capacity, you need to dig into the kernel logs to see how much is being reserved by the firmware and kernel and drivers. (If there was more memory missing, it could plausibly be due to in-band ECC, but that doesn't seem to be an option for DGX Spark.)

Ugh, that one gets me every time!

off topic: What's the font this website uses for the code? The font ligatures seem nice, but I also would have to get used to reading code like that.

Inspector is telling me it's "ZedTextFtl", with "Jetbrains Mono" used for the monospace blocks.

I found this course very helpful if you're interested in a bit of math (but all very well explained): https://diffusion.csail.mit.edu/

It is short, with good lecture notes and has hands on examples that are very approachable (with solutions available if you get stuck).

I found it to be the best resource to understand the material. That's certainly a good reference to delve deeper into the intuitions given by OP (it's about 5 hours of lectures, plus exercises).

It's just an ad for their SSH cert service...

I feel like for SSH certs to expand beyond large companies, there's the need for an open-source service which does the issuing of short-lived certs after a user authenticates. I know smallstep, but their offer feels open-core/freemium.

Hey totally agree with the open source aspect here in order for SSH certificates to reach broader adoption (coupled with seamless admin and user experience).

Infisical SSH is actually an extension of the Infisical platform which is open source and used by a ton of companies for secrets management.

Can anyone recommend a site for buying DRM free books so I can read it with KOReader?

https://www.libreture.com/bookshops/ has a list of stores (and for Norwegian books there is https://ebok.no/ ), but I have found no way to search "globally" (across sites like that) for DRM-free ebooks.

https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=32442549 has some more tips.

Oh and https://bookshop.org/beta-search now actually lets you check "DRM-free" when you search, which is a very good step in the right direction!

I have a dream of https://news.ycombinator.com/user?id=marginalia_nu taking up the mantle. Though I think anyone could make something that's better than what we have now, which is nothing.

Not for buying, but for free: https://standardebooks.org

The best solution I have found is to buy a DRM book, then download the DRM-free version from libgen. That may not be what you're looking for but it keeps me in Calibre.

I've purchased a lot of mine from Kobo. There's also Standard Ebooks if you want free, high-quality reproductions of public domain works.

Note that with Kobo you need to check. I bought one there once thinking it was DRM-free, it was not.

One can also remove DRM from books one purchased with Calibre+DeDRM plugin.[0],[1],[2]
