I scratched a similar itch and found local LLMs plus Whisper worked really well to listen in and "DJ" a soundtrack while playing tabletop RPGs with a group. If you want to check it out: https://github.com/sean-public/conductor


Claimify from MS research aims in this direction. There's a paper and video explainer from a few months ago.

There are utilities to help, waybackpack comes to mind, but I haven't looked in a while. https://github.com/jsvine/waybackpack


As OP, I think I'm supposed to arrange for the card to be collected... oh hey you're Kirk! It's Sean formerly of Amino as well :)


Sean! Hah, small world. It's great seeing you! If you're going to be in Vegas in a couple weeks, drop me an email (in my profile here) and let's say hi.


Don't forget to take your nerd card so it can be collected


Are you looking for a tool like Barman?


For failover handling repmgr is probably better (they can work together though)


Thanks. What role does repmgr play?


I don't know. Barman would only be part of the HA puzzle no?


I've been using the unofficial builds via scoop for the last two months. It's working great so far. I use it on a Macbook as well and I haven't found any features that are missing or buggier on Win11. Really enjoying the new agent version of the AI assistant, which I use with both Claude API and devstral locally via Ollama.

Maybe their privacy pass is useful then?

Unfortunately the assistant officially does not work with Privacy Pass, for some inexplicable reason.


Been having a great time with postgresml for this exact kind of thing. If you don't need a complex DAG but have a simple pipeline or work queue that can be easily represented in postgres anyway, it's very straightforward to work with and nicely encapsulates all of your processing (traditional data munging and LLM calls) together with a modest extension of a familiar system.


You can use the number with your local area code just about anywhere at the pump to get a gas discount as well (a common loyalty reward program benefit).


A very similar card game played by deciding when to stop flipping cards from a deck where red is $1 and black is −$1 as described in Timothy Falcon’s quantitative-finance interview book (problem #14). Gwern describes it and also writes code to prove out an optimal stopping strategy: https://gwern.net/problem-14


Nice!

Only quibble i have is that black should be +$1 and red -$1 to follow standard finance conventions, i.e. be in the "black" or "red".


That is a nice game and writeup.
