can you recommend a setup with ollama and a cli tool? Do you know if I need a licence for Claude if I only use my own local LLM?

It seems that this is only in place at the security entering the terminal. I landed in Heathrow a few days ago and had to empty out my water bottle (which I got given on the flight to the UK) for the transfer security check.

We once stayed in a beach house with an outdoor shower in South Africa. One morning I got up, took a shower (without my glasses, I am very short sighted) and went in for breakfast. About 20 minutes later my sister-in-law comes running into the house shouting that "there is a huge snake in the outside shower"

Fully agree. Walking towards the address I came around a corner and my jaw dropped. Still get goosebumps thinking of that moment. Sadly inside was a construction site with no lighting (this was around 2003), would love to go back and see it again.

Around 2001 I worked for one of the big dot com news outlets. In our reception we had a PC with a browser set up where people could "use the internet" while they waited. One day the receptionist asked me to fix the PC as it wasn't connected to the internet and no one from IT was available. So I messed around a bit (think in the end I just reset the DCHP lease) and to test I opened the browser to surf the net.

Of course with the millions of websites available I couldn't think of one specific one, so I just held down the "x" key and then pressed CTRL+ENTER (which automatically added "www" and ".com" to your entry - typing this on a mac I see it still works with Firefox).

Of course www.x(and a few more x).com was a porn site.

Of course there were a bunch of people (including customers) sitting in reception (and the receptionist herself) who could directly see the screen.

Of course the PC was running nothing else, so a quick alt+tab didn't hide anything.

I announced that all was fine and ran for my desk.

As others have mentioned, this resonates well. But for me, not only biology. Looking back, I wish my history teacher had done something similar; taken me by the shoulders and shook me until I really understood what we were learning. Instead, major events in our history ended up being "memorize yet another date" rather than us understanding the impact these events had on us or our parents/grandparents.

That's a very good idea, probably also the easiest to implement since my set up is API driven.

I LOVE the simplicity of it!

Fully agree, this is probably the most viable future option.

Would pumping up into a tank in the roof work? Any idea of the amount of energy vs weight can be stored?

I have a heat pump driven boiler and I do run it when the excess is available - it uses 500W, so I'm still left with a potential 2-2.5kW. I can of course set the boiler hotter, but then I'm just wearing out the components to lose the heat at night (since I don't need so much hot water).

I do have an EV charger, but no nearby neighbours yet with EVs.

However "sharing the excess" is an interesting idea, since everyone needs electricity. I could run an extension cable to the neighbour and let him run his washer/dryer from it at peak times.

Sure, 30kW storage is fine, but it implies you use all the energy every day (or night). In the summer months my current set up uses basically 0 grid hours (as I already have some storage for night time). The 30% really is an excess after storage, running home appliance, charging batteries etc.

perhaps give a consistent fake birth date (rather than a random one)

My dad mentioned to me once that back in the early days of commercial flying each passenger was weighed with their luggage

Looking through some of the points above, I was somehow reminded of Johnny Mnemonic, where he puts together a computer to get online. Based on today's reality he wouldn't need all the most modern, hard core parts, but actually as retro as possible - break into a computer museum and fire up some kind of antique running code he writes himself.

They have similar limits in Europe already. Is this also the case in the US?

Generally you lie in the water in a wetsuit for buoyancy. The spotter holds on to you to make sure you don't float out to sea (in our case). They also check on you by prompting you to give an "okay" indication (by lifting a finger every 30 seconds or so).

One danger of being under water is that you can pass out even after you've taken a breath of fresh air, so the spotter also is there to make sure you are good in the few seconds after you come up.

> if you are using vim, it is more efficient to use ctrl+[ instead of the escape key

I'm always amazed by how, after using vi(m) for so many years one can always learn something new. I opened a session and tried it out and then found my hand moving to the escape key automatically...

They have them in a few intersections here in Munich too

I think the difference is that in the US you are allowed to turn right (in many cases) on red. Here in Germany it generally isn't allowed, so bikes have right of way over traffic turning / crossing over the bike lane
