Good. Lets replace search with "AI" then! Totally logical if you ask me. Even more worth it when you know they're exponentially overtaking the airline industry in their carbon footprint.

Bluesky To Sell Your Content To AI Data Miners
So it begins. Hidden in Jay Graber's recent charm offensive is this innocuously framed initiative: Bluesky is weighing a proposal that gives users consent over how their data is used for AI (techcrunch.com/2025/03/10/blue…)
Not so fast.
1) Shows they are planning on doing content deals with AI companies.
2) Seems like it is Opt-out vs. Opt-in (see below).
3) It is just a voluntary robots.txt file

TIL about the bulk import functionality in django-import-export library.
django-import-export.readthedo…
Some caveats:
- set `batch_size` for better performance
- doesn't work with many-to-many relationships
- no `pre_save` and `post_save` signals sent (it' doesn't call `model.save()`)
In simple crude single-shot transfers without saved TLS sessions, you will not find HTTP/3 faster:
github.com/curl/curl/discussio…
Hello, got curious, and installed cloudflare's curl http3 client, and compared http 1.1/2/3, and interestingly http3 not the quickest, atleast on cold curl calls. These numbers definitely look odd,...GitHub
This isn't surprising. 0RTT and improved avoidance of head of line blocking are two of the big wins for HTTP/3, and those are ruled out by this test. Over a long connection you would get other wins (the difference in ACK vs. NACK management of loss), but "crude, single-shot transfers" weren't really the use case that drove the development of QUIC at Google or the standardization of it at the IETF.
You can see this pretty well in the first QUIC charter: datatracker.ietf.org/doc/chart…
TIP: Co je to gravel? A proč se mu říká štěrkáč či štěrkolet?
Gravel je cyklistický hit posledních několika let. Kříženec mezi silničním a horským kolem. Což znamená, že na gravelu si můžete užít jak silnice, tak terén.

I find it interesting what is happening to the polls in Canada.
What looked like an upcoming comfortable victory for The Conservatives has changed dramatically after the inauguration of Trump.
Should the Liberals end up winning the election later this year, the US president would be facing the new leader of the Liberal Party, Mark Carney.
We would then see the chaos president Trump fighting a trade war against a calculated, educated and experienced economist who has lead central banks.
SparkFun Retired Products Archive Reference
In late 2024, SparkFun Electronics relaunched their website. They deleted roughly 20 years of archived product information, along with all associated datasheets, schematics and tutorials. Luckily, the Internet Archive's Wayback Machine has good records of the site, and I was able to recover links to 5934 deleted products. So here's the list:
