Jan: Tool that integrates into a single program various open source generative text AI models.
  • I installed it in Linux and it's headed for a live environment.

    Starling looks good so far.

    One improvement I'd recommend is to make links visible. They are currently the same color as general text in the chat, black by default. I'd recommend blue.

  • [US] Brokerage with decent API?
  • Yes but I've read that Schwab will have its own API. I read that within the last two months. I've also been told as much by a rep, with disclaimers of course. That was a year ago.

    Either way, I expect schwab to have an API. Why else buy TD?

  • [US] Brokerage with decent API?
  • I understood that TDA accounts with API would continue to work. Did yours stop working?

    I delayed moving an account to TDA with API because I wanted to wait for the first to settle.

  • Anytype as an alternative to Notion or Obsidian
  • The community can only read the source code, as of yet. All of the source code has been provided by a set of internal developers.

    The fact that it is open source means that, if somehow two malware elements have made it into the source code, then someone will eventually report it. But this doesn't mean that two malware elements cannot be there right now.

    These two malware hits on total virus scan should be communicated to the developers.

  • [Feature request] Blur level

    For NSFW images, in card mode where images are shown in full size, the default level of blur allows others to see the essence of the image. It would be nice to be able to increase the level of blur further. Perhaps three levels would be good.

    What do you think about MX Linux
  • Works great for me. I'm running mx23 after running mx19 for a few years.

    I hope mx23 is better with updates, or making easier to update, as updates broke in mx19 not long after I first installed it. My only complaint. Otherwise great.

  • Lemmy instances that are focused on mirroring Reddit content?
  • Checking out !main@soccer.forum I saw very few posts by bots. Mainly saw posts by you. I saw one post coming from alien.top .

    What's interesting is that only posts by bots have any comments. So maybe this could be a good way to get communities started.

    Therefore, if it's okay with the admins at the following community, I'd nominate !tennis@lemmy.world

    There's almost nothing happening there.

  • [EU] Buying company shares at my job - worth it?
  • Take the free ones. Ignore the discounted ones, don't buy them.

    There is too much concentration in your livelihood when you invest in your employer. For example, and I know too many examples of this, if your employer starts doing badly, you can not only lose your job, but they might move out of town leaving your home in a state where you may need to sell it in a depressed market. Often the shares you would have invested in the company are worth too little to sell. Your assets, your job, your home, all take a hit at the same crazy time. Not worth it.

    Instead, invest in broad-market index funds. Go to Bogleheads where they discuss this and ask there. If you like momentum, arguably the greatest investor that has ever lived, Warren Buffett recommends a split between 90% SPY or IVV (S&P500) and 10% cash. The S&P500 is something like a momentum fund of the top winners of the US economy, and constantly changing.

    Your employer is only trying to tie you down and have real skin in the game so that you'll work harder. Ignore the tendency.

    Best of luck.

  • Lemmy instances that are focused on mirroring Reddit content?
  • Let's say I have a favorite sport and there exists a sub_ named: r/.

    Let's also say there already exits a Lemmy community and that community is struggling to get off the ground: !@lemmy.world

    I can see a value add if your project directly helps !@lemmy.world get started; but I don't see how it does. If anything wouldn't your project compete with !@lemmy.world and therefore hinder it?

    It might be different if your project directly tied r/ to !@lemmy.world but it doesn't.

  • If downvotes are the issue, beehaw.org doesn't allow downvotes. Those folks are automatically eliminated from that. You can then just ignore the comments you don't like and it's all good. 👍

  • Distinguishing features of Long COVID identified through immune profiling - Nature
  • I'm not an expert but I feel for you and will try my TLDR.

    They did a study of almost 300 people. They split these into two groups, some with long COVID and some without.

    They then tried to determine if those with long COVID had a signature in their antibodies. That's what "immuno phenotyping" means ... finding a unique pattern in antibody types and responses.

    They did indeed find those signatures or patterns. Specifically, people with long COVID had more of specific types of antibodies and faster antibody responses to COVID and other viruses like Epstein Barr.

    These differences between these two groups might help to identify and diagnose long COVID.

    Further study is recommended (edit: almost all papers end with this recommendation)

  • Textual Web takes a Textual-powered TUI and turns it in to a web application
  • I went over to their Discord server and here's what I was able to glean.

    I gather they run a web-facing server which accepts text I/O from your Textual apps running on your personal machine or server, probably as a daemon. The connection between these two is via normal TCP/IP connections which your firewall already allows. Your Textual apps receive keyboard and mouse events and text.

    They claim it should be "essentially free" for hobby use.

    The text stream between your apps and their servers will eventually be (or are) encrypted.

  • Instance / Server evaporation

    In the Fediverse, what is the solution to instances or servers going missing?

    To elaborate: The problem with commercial aggregators like Reddit, Twitter/X, Facebook, etc. is enshitification, for one reason or another. Of course, Lemmy, etc. on the Fediverse is the alternative solution, seemingly. But let's say that the hardware for a large Lemmy instance just disappears. What happens to all of the posts? Yes, old posts will still be available for a while on other instances. But, seemingly, there won't be any more updates. How is this addressed?

    Moderators would of course be interested in continuing but they may not have the skills and resources to set up the hardware.

    Instances/servers can disappear for many reasons: retirement, illness, confiscation, war, bungee jumping or parachuting accident, ... the list goes on.
