If it's winter, put the baby in the pram outside, while you do a quick sauna session?

Oh neat. Zigbee support.

I wonder if I at some point can create low power devices with EspHome for home assistant. I assume this should use less power than connecting to wifi?


The C6 and the H2 already support ZigBee. Their SDK has a thin layer on top of zboss.

You already can with nRF52 boards. Presumably they'll add ESP32 support soon too.

I think intellij idea can git worktree for agents as well.

Can't you use the official claude code vs plugin? AFAIK it uses the same binary as the cli in the background.

Yes and I do. My above point was just that I’d like to have fast inline auto complete.

I think they just don't want every post to be about llm, vibe coding, harness and if claude is down.

Some sub reddits forbid memes, because else they get flooded and the good content drowns in it.

Some sub reddits only allow certain content of certain days to counter this.

What do you want to mods to do?


I'm quite impressed what is possible with just 12 to 16 GB of vram in terms of image generation.

Yeah, it's not very good.

Even the basics:

> Every second of video requires rendering hundreds of individual frames

Was probably only 24 or 30 frames, not multiple hundreds per second.


> Also unsure why they said "Claude Code", it's not an CLI agent AFAIK?

Claude Code is a Desktop app as well.


The consfusing way AI companies like to name products is something to be studied.

tbf they're not the only one doing so, we had 3 different "Microsoft Teams" and "Outlook" until recently...

Ok, but "Claude Code"/"Claude Desktop" regardless is software, a tool, not a model/LLM. Doesn't make much sense as they've written it.

For the end user who just installs the app it's probably all the same. It's not a technical document.

For the user it's just important that the small grimlin that sits in the Ente app is not as smart as the grimlin that sits in the Claude app.


I don’t think so. IIRC the desktop app is called Claude and it has a code option in the UI.

Claude Cowork (part of the Desktop app) is claude code, running inside a VM.

Not that it is important any way ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Mhh, far from it.


Is this advice also applicable to Desktops installations?

The better distros have it (ZRAM) enabled by default for desktops (I think PopOS and Fedora). In my personal experience every desktop Linux should use memory compression (except you have an absurd amount of RAM) because it helps so much, especially with everything related to browser and/or electron usage!

Windows and macOS have it enabled by default for many years (even if it works a little different there).


I did an Archinstall setup this weekend, and that also suggested zram.

Because it's an easy solution esp. to a rather new installer: setting up swap on disk (partition or file, if file which file system, if partition w/o encryption, ...). Zram: install one additional package and forget.

See also the "zram on Fedora" section in the article.


I get the impression that most desktop users enable zram or zswap to get a little bit more out of their RAM but there is never any real worry about OOM, not regularly anyway, so then (according to the principles laid out in the article) it shouldn't matter much.

On my workstation, I run statistical simulations in R which can be wasteful with memory and cause a lot of transient memory pressure, and for that scenario I do like that zswap works alongside regular swap. Especially when combined with the advice from https://makedebianfunagainandlearnhowtodoothercoolstufftoo.c... to wake up kswapd early, it really does seem to make a difference.
