https://runnem.com - something I use to easily get projects running again when I get back to them. It also helps the AI get at the logs of the running processes.

It's because Claude RTFM.

I was also looking for examples.

Yep, Medium was free and everyone donated content... then it put up reading paywalls and conned everyone, I'm also surprised when I see people writing on there.


Cool, I wonder how different the results would have been for us had we used your tool: https://foundinglean.substack.com/p/how-we-got-consistent-he...

We just threw Cursor/Claude at the images and it dug out the colours we wanted.


"Unavailable Due to the UK Online Safety Act" - without my VPN... do you know why?


Geo blocking the UK satisfies any age verification, otherwise the site owner would have to check if their content is considered adult in the UK and implement something.


"otherwise the site owner would have to check if their content is considered adult in the UK and implement something"

IMO a small blog website is not going to get pulled-up for this - it's about the author making a point. They're entitled to do so of course.


Never know when one of your posts might gain serious traction. Not worth the risk. Very easy to find many examples of people making decisions thinking “I/we will never be big enough for that to be relevant” only to be haunted by that decision later. Classic example: partnership agreements/contracts between friends and family on small endeavors.


> IMO a small blog website is not going to get pulled-up for this

Well, maybe not the typical engineering blog but I think if you're a puritan some posts/texts from Aphyr probably reaches borderline "adult content", so I'm not that surprised Aphyr rather play it safe and also make a point at the same time.


It's "playing it safe" in the same way that wearing full hockey gear to go to the store is "playing it safe".

He is either making a political point or excessively paranoid.


It's probably a political point, but I think your comparison over sells how inconvenient it is for someone to geoblock one small country and the headache if anything did happen. It's not much more effort than doing nothing really?

And clearly users in the UK can find their own way to read it if they like, so the cost is also small there.


>geoblock one small country

Considering that there is multiple "why is this blocked in the uk" comments on every single one of these posts maybe the UK isn't such a small country. Geoblocking a decent chunk of your readership would be a pretty big inconvenience for a writer I would imagine.


the culture section of this writeup links to explicitly adult/erotic content in the footnotes and discusses 'adult themes' directly. his caution seems reasonable.


>or excessively paranoid.

Have you even read the shit politicians are either pulling or trying to these days? There is no amount of paranoia that is too little when talking about things like cross national prosecution, laws regarding users not considered adults, and age verification.


aphyr may have some NSFW photos on the site IIRC which may have got the domain swept up with the new UK laws.


It's self-imposed, I think? curl connects to the same aphyr.com in both cases, but when connecting from the UK it receives a different response body. Probably sensible I expect, if you just want things to work, legally speaking.


The act:

>... mandates removing illegal content, restricting access to harmful material, and implementing age verification, with Ofcom enforcing compliance. Violations can result in massive fines of up to 10% of global turnover or £18 million.

I guess some people either figure it's easier to block the UK or do so on principle as a protest against the thing.


When you win you win small but when you lose you lose big? :)


Satoshi is not Adam Back. Satoshi suggested that the block size should increase when needed. Adam Back blocked this to profit himself.


> Making AI great at coding was the strategy that unlocks everything else. That's why they did it first.

They did it first because doing it first was easier. There are tons of examples around and code can be verified to work.


That looks sweet. It would be great to adjust for inflation based on predicted inflation rates over the period.


Great feedback, I'll add to dev pipeline.
