This is the first thing I started looking for when I started gathering ESP32s. I will definitely be checking this out! My main thought for it was experimenting with Meshtastic firmware without potentially bricking one of my devices.
Those are not really usable as something you toggle on/off when needed, since they are under the battery cover and you are strongly recommended to only flip them while the phone is off.
Cool that they are there, but not suitable for what most people actually want.
It's understandable, I don't think most of us like getting to the actual documentation of our project and would rather keep coding and/or prompting.
I think this is a message more for everyone that feels this way than just you but...
I'd suggest having a model go through it using pstack's unslop skill and see if you like that copy better.
But in all honesty we should be proofreading readmes before sending instructions out to millions of people. I've tried setting up a few that just didn't work when following instructions because of incorrect info or just completely leaving necessary steps/info out... Usually totally useless info in its place.
There's a conundrum there where we're so excited to show off our project that we present it in this streamlined way that makes people unable (or unwilling) to even digest what it's for and how to properly set it up.
Back in the day I probably modded over 100 consoles for people, Xbox, Wii, DS, Switch, PS3.... I can't say that even once the person cared about hearing what XBMC was and all the things it could theoretically do. They just cared about being able to play/watch things with the press of the button without having to know any of the tech aspects.
Anyone I knew that could mod consoles just did it themselves.
This one wasn't as bad as the majority that have the emoji in each header too. At least these emoji did seem to properly represent the item they're next to, not an immediate rocket ship emoji in the header following by irrelevant ones of various sizes littered throughout the text.
So was the article. It was more of a shower thought with no real thought. Seeing a lot of these two paragraph blog posts on HN a lot lately. Do we have so much AI fatigue that it's shareworthy to post a paragraph allegedly written by a human?
I'm fairly involved with such communities and I've never seen a poly relationship that lasts long. All power to the people that can do it, but it's anecdotally rare and it's not for me.
> This release contains security fixes. To give everyone time to upgrade, details will be added to this post in about a week.
Is this something that has been happening for a while or a new trend due to LLM concerns? I understand the reasoning, it just made me do a double take because I haven't really seen that before.
With Gitea specifically or in general? A lot of different software has silently included security fixes in updates combined with other changes and then later revealed what security fixes were made or stayed quiet about it all together, since long before LLMs could analyze changes.
Security researchers and malware authors would reverse engineer software updates of proprietary software, and scrutinise source code changes of open source projects to find secretly shipped security fixes.
(bias note: I am a project lead of Gitea) this approach is based on what peertube has been doing, and is being attempted as an alternative approach to what we've been doing previously due to feedback we've been receiving from the community.
The feedback was that we gave too many details too soon, and so we solicited feedback from the community and peertube's approach was given as a suggestion for us to try. But to be clear, this decision was discussed and made by the maintainers, including the elected leadership team. I'd say that this is a successful example of governance, as it isn't a unilateral decision, and everyone was involved in making.
