Do you take pictures with deli meat/cheese on his head?

Or does he have a sibling named whiskey?

Not being sure it applies to this scenario and too lazy to verify, sometimes the security scanners get updated and flag previously accepted code.

... tough to make sense of flagging a readme though, unless there's sensitive info in it.

In a sense, more people working towards secret protection generally did result in better secret protection, like encryption algorithms and secure architecture and whatnot.

It only starts to become a paradox when you get into actually executing the task of protecting a specific secret... but I think we could draw that line somewhere for almost any task.

There is a point of generality where more people means better results and a point of specificity where you only want the exact right number of people.

People keep asking if I'm back, and I haven't really had an answer. But now, yeah, I'm thinking po-tay-toes!

If anyone has followed the saga, apparently 4/14 is my serious answer

To satisfy the curiosity, just download Ollama. You can run your interactions locally, no feeding the demon and full privacy.

Set up a modelfile with system prompts for the kind of personality you want to create. Do some googling, may want to tweak settings to get response creativity just right. Higher parameter base models generally better and more hardware costly.

If you want pics, you can use StableDiffusion. I recommend using docker images because it's really complicated and environment sensitive.

You can tie the two together with a little Python logic and have the core bot prompt the image generator at certain chat moments. Ironically, if you're not comfortable writing code, you could just get VSCode and Gemini and spit out some pretty okay Python code without strong understanding.

There are also tools for local audio generation I'm less familiar with but am sure Google could get you there.

Maybe start with a basic Ollama setup and see if it feels like it's working for you.

As a kid, our Baptist church had two flags with golden eagles on the top in the pulpit alongside the cross.

The actual religious tenants aren't a part of your typical American church.

Can confirm. Agents just kicked my door in and shot me dead.

The only thing I really remember being taught was something like, "If you think you're going to cut it close, file for an extension."

It's just so damn easy now with the internet. I can get my W2 in my company portal, 1099's from the bank portal, and file my taxes (for a fee) in the browser.

We're not fiscally responsible enough to have anything going on that makes it very complicated, so there isn't much genuine fear to overcome my natural laziness and poor impulse control

4/24 is the day for this chore
