If your talking about obsidian, essentially its all .MD files. So not much more portable than that. I just setup my vault to sync notes to a share that I have an iteration of my agent have access to that I can chat with via telegram. Has access to tools etc.

I've been using obsidian and obsidians CLI to inject context via dataview queries. if it needs full context it knows the markdown file to goto.

Its not a tell on my hand strength when lean my hand on my cheek. It's to smell my cologne, because the dude next to me smells like hot trash.

Poker tip: wear cologne to defend against pungent fish.

What if I fine-tune the open-weight models with the high-quality reasoning traces from Claude?

Well. these guys (TeichAI) did just that and optimized them for GGUF inference on consumer GPUs and laptops.

Random Claude Code tip:

Create a UserPromptSubmit Hook that adds the current date time (including day of week).

This helps with things that are obvious like tasks deadlines/calendar stuff, but also if you have Claude do research so it understands how old a source is.

I am interested as well, I pay for 404, and other sources I'd pay for are substacks. But subscribing to individual writers like that can add up quick.

Was paying for medium, but it's pretty much turned into a slophouse.

I really want to play a damn computer game.... But I can't stop building shit for the Homelab stack.

Its barely a lab, its a prod life stack.

I was asked to check this, the journal uses a Rail Fence Cipher, so you read each line up and down, left to right. The deciphered text in the article below is accurate, and names names. The file itself can be found here:

Asimov πŸ’― but I tried Heinland specifically "Stranger in a Strange Land" and I got through 3/4s of it thinking to myself "just finish it, you are suppose to have read this by now". Till I ultimately put it in the DNF pile.

Obsidian note editor displaying a SPECTRE Intelligence SITREP dated 2026-02-04, styled with an LCARS-inspired theme featuring orange text on a dark background. The left sidebar shows the DAx-n0v-shared vault file tree with folders for DAx (Chronicles, Decisions, Dreams, Memories, Projects), Documentation, Poker, Research, SITREP, and others. The SITREP folder is expanded showing daily entries from January 31 through February 6, 2026, with February the 4 entry highlighted. The main content area shows the Director's Assessment section discussing five key cybersecurity themes including VMware ESXi zero-day exploitation (CVE-2025-22225), fileless DEAD#VAX malware campaigns, and China-nexus APT coordination by Amaranth-Dragon and Mustang Panda clusters.

I would have never spent the time to build out an LCARS @obsidian.md theme without Claude. What would have once been a fleeting thought, brought to life. And I freaking love it 😁

This applies to security too. Blocking it with policy is just another form of denying reality. Our threat models assume human-speed, human-scale. That's already obsolete.

If you ask me (nobody asked, by the way) which OCR model I’d use, this would be it. They’ve been doing OCR for years, and it shows.

Oh man, idk wtf I was doing before... Just added an "Adversarial Engineer" agent to my Claude Code setup. Its whole job: tear apart my plans before (or after) I implement them. Find the gotchas. Poke holes. Should've had this from day one.
