Isn’t Microsoft perpetually short on capacity?

It’s a new SKU. You’ll have to pay for that new type of app.

There are the handful that it’s not just a web console or API you interact with. Have to file a support ticket.

Those will be a pain.

This is the conversation I plan to have with Okta sales soon. Wait till you see how easy AI makes it to switch to Entra ID or anyone else. It’s tedium not even problem solving.

I thought this might be the case. Thanks.

IMO, the text is in the wrong direction. I thought it felt uncomfortable to read. On my real life bookshelf, it flows from top to bottom.

Amazingly some companies like Hyland still ship software that requires IIS. Bonus add are the pages and pages of setup instructions.

Home Assistant shipped an MCP server and client: https://www.home-assistant.io/integrations/mcp_server/

Mechanics, car wash, anyone who can unlock the vehicle while it’s parked.

Curious about other experiences.

I’ve been playing with this stack and left wondering if Strands provides any secret sauce with Agent Core. So far it doesn’t feel that way and sometimes they even feel at odds with each other.

I still can’t use Containers because of a broken DNS implementation. I suppose I could manually set the DNS as I switch on and off VPN, but I don’t have to with Finch, Podman, or Docker Desktop.

mDNS should work here even without a reflector.

I live in the SE US suburbs and a regular story on the news are fears over roaming packs of kids on e-bikes or e-motorcycles. Now, while the safety concerns of reckless riding are warranted, it also tells me that at least some of the kids are alright.

I live in a low density, large neighborhood where kids 8-17 are out roaming all the time, the older half heading to adjacent shops and other neighborhoods. I recognize and know who most are and their parents. The common trend I see is a purposeful limiting of screen time.

When it goes all the way to the top, their question isn’t how should we stop them, it’s how can we get in on this?

I'm likely being overly specific, but blocking npm downloads, installation on corporate devices, etc is trivial in a restrictive corporate environment.

Not quietly. Uploads are commonly monitored by data loss prevention (DLP) solutions, especially when MITM is being used for corporate proxy.

Downloading a tiny JS from a CDN, or accessing a GitHub page is mostly noise, especially if obfuscated well.

I've been trying out MCP servers for FreeCAD to mixed results.

One area I had near magic was providing a land survey which includes details in writing of the plat. It took those directions and beautifully reconstructed the boundaries to exact precision in CAD.

Where I ran into trouble was creating good constraints on sketches without being overly explicit. I kept running into it creating distance constraints from an arbitrary point instead of using other elements in the diagram that a human drafter would think to do by default.

I've done this exact approach before. It's a good way to exfiltrate data. Post the software on GitHub pages, or a popular CDN that co-hosts other shared libraries and you've got a very difficult to block method.

Really goes to show that it's very difficult to stop a motivated and informed actor.

Admittedly I’m unsure if it was Google or DuckDuckGo. I switch between both. I quickly asked the in search AI for a UTC time conversion like a lazy fool and it got it off by almost a day wrong.

Sadly it’s going to be more nuanced.

The Bedrock models, at least, have additional click through EULAs for Anthropic models. You’re going to need to review and agree to those as well.

Claude is going to be marketplace spend and that’s usually capped towards your PPA at 25%.

A “crate” motor you can’t install yourself.

I didn't know I could do that, so I just gave it a try.

First instinct, double tap the side button to open Wallet. Couldn't rearrange the cards there. So,I opened Settings app and couldn't rearrange the cards there. Finally, I opened the Wallet app and found I could rearrange cards there, though there's no visual indicators that I can. I accidentally changed my default card on the first attempt.

It's wild. I reinstalled Facebook to sell some things on Marketplace. Thirty minutes later I'm doom scrolling through shit I wouldn't have sought out. I uninstall the app after I no longer have items to sell.

I'm guessing pressure is not allowed to escape before it's on the last thread.

What would also be very interesting is a graph of relationships and movements. Let's see just how incestuous the boards really are, and what's going on with serial CEOs who move from one business to the next.

Sure, with Microsoft Defender for Endpoint, why not?

You’re an every day hero. Thank you!

I had to abandon Apple MacOS container because it has so many issues with networking and DNS. I'm looking forward to try it again if they can get it fixed.

This could be because of a floating neutral.

There are certainly cases where harmonic distortion is a problem for a device. It’s just that everyone is left guessing, and there’s an overblown fear of devices being harmed.

Sure. It’s just rarely what lay people associate with “sensitive”. Most customers are worried about small electronics with switching mode power supplies that wouldn’t have a problem with just about any power source.

I wouldn’t run some AC motors, old AC clock, ham radio, or many other things on some generators.

The line is open to interoperation and never defined by the manufacturer. It’s blanket liability avoidance that confuses customers.
