At the same time the dumps of government and corporate emails have been invaluable to society at large. They’ve helped win court cases, uncover corruption, etc.

FreeBSD is touted for long running and stability.

Makes me wonder: are there Unicode code points for tone of voice? If not could there be?


If you think in terms of quantum mechanics and density matrices across higher dimensions, then, yes there are interesting geometries that arise.

I’m exploring some “branes” that might cleanly filter in emotional space.


Any know if these only installed on Tahoe? I'm running Sequoia still and get an error about model not found.

> Apple Silicon Mac, macOS 26 Tahoe or newer, Apple Intelligence enabled

Yes, the model ships with Tahoe, not previous versions.

I too would love to try this for simple prompts but won’t be updating past Sequoia for the foreseeable future.


Same. What a disaster Tahoe is.

Nah, ESP32's have had ethernet capability for a while and ESP-IDF supports it well. I've been using one I built for 5+ years now. Unfortunately RMII (ethernet phy) interface takes up a lot of the GPIO pins. This part looks like it'll remedy that issue.

There's two ESP32 boards that have been around for a while with PoE:

I'm more hopeful for single-pair ethernet to gain momentum though! Deterministic, faster than CANBUS, single pair, with power delivery:

I really wish there was a camera option. You’d have made wired doorbell cameras possible without a retrofit.

I’d buy in a heartbeat

I keep looking for a reasonably priced 10baseT to 10Base-T1L bridge... everything commercial seems too expensive (for me) and the two hobby designs [1] [2] I've seen are not orderable :(

But I'm seeing more commercial options lately, so that's hopeful.

The ManT1S linked by a sibling has a bridge. Still not cheap, but probably better than most commercial ones.

any reason you won't send #2 to a pcbfab? include assembly if that's an issue.

SPE with multidrop and PoDL would be awesome ! They are working on that and it will be everywhere.

Multidrop SPE isn't going to outperform newer CAN versions though. Somewhere in the sub-100Mb/s (e.g. 10-20Mb/s range) is the practical maximum speed of a multidrop bus at useful lengths, and that essentially applies equally to CAN or SPE. The only way to really get faster in a "multidrop-like" sense is with logically loop-like systems like ethercat and Fibre Channel where each network segment is point-to-point and the nodes are responsible for the routing.

Are the newer CAN versions single pair with power delivery? Those are the real sweet spots of SPE.

It’s funded by the FreeBSD foundation, so “by” fits.

But it's got a separate entity providing paid support?

svelte is very new, it’s supported by the foundation not by. also the foundation is not freebsd they are two separate entities. freebsd is the developers, the foundation is a bunch of canadians supporting said developers.

> It’s funded by the FreeBSD foundation, so “by” fits.

No, it is not.

FreeBSD are listed as ONE of the three core sponsors.

The other two are commercial organisations.

The GitHub repo is not hosted by FreeBSD either, it is by one of the other sponsors, "AlchemillaHQ".

There is nothing "by" about this.

"for", sure, but "by", nope.



Renewables may be the cheapest at spot values, but there needs to be a way to price in the intermittent nature of the power.

There is. The cost of my electricity changes every half hour.

People disliking renewables always say this.

Then when asked what method to price in the Swedish nuclear fleet having ~50% of capacity offline multiple times last year and France famously having 50% of the capacity offline during the energy crisis I always get crickets for answers.

It’s apparently fine when nuclear plants doesn’t deliver, but not renewables.

The difference with renewables is that it’s even easier to manage. Their intermittency is entirely expected and the law of large numbers ensure we never have half the capacity offline due to technical issues at the same time.


And pay $60 per Ethernet POE+ light bulb.


> And pay $60 per Ethernet POE+ light bulb.

In the commercial/industrial space this may be worth it: how long do these bulbs last? how much (per hour (equivalent)) do you pay your facilities folks? how much time does it take for employees or tenants to report an outage and for your folks to get a ladder (or scissor lift) to change the bulb?


I discovered the same exact thing wiring a second phone line to my bedroom as a teenager. I jumped into a pile of fiberglass insulation! :/
