Remote terminal via WebRTC, incl. file-transfer – no SSH/VPN required
Perhaps the easiest way to get a shell on your remote devices wherever they are (even behind NATs and firewalls) -- no VPN required. Offers file transfer right from the terminal itself. Because it is web-based and connects via WebRTC it is better than VPN + SSH in every way: - no setup required on the client machine, it hence works on all OSs and even your phone, - it will always find the shortest-path to your robots, meaning it won’t go through the cloud if you are on the same network as your robot - still end-to-end encrypted - file upload via drag & drop - file download by clicking on…
In plain words
This tool provides remote terminal access to devices over WebRTC, eliminating the need for VPN or SSH setup. It works across operating systems and phones without client installation, automatically using the shortest network path and avoiding unnecessary cloud routing. The service includes end-to-end encryption, drag-and-drop file transfers, and can be embedded in applications. Designed for robotics and remote device management, it functions even when devices are behind NATs and firewalls.

Perhaps the easiest way to get a shell on your remote devices wherever they are (even behind NATs and firewalls) -- no VPN required. Offers file transfer right from the terminal itself. Because it is web-based and connects via WebRTC it is better than VPN + SSH in every way: - no setup required on the client machine, it hence works on all OSs and even your phone, - it will always find the shortest-path to your robots, meaning it won’t go through the cloud if you are on the same network as your robot - still end-to-end encrypted - file upload via drag & drop - file download by clicking on filenames in ls The UI component can be embedded anywhere you like and you can specify the device to connect to directly in the embedding code. This solves a common pain-point in robotics, but seems equally useful in many other applications. Please share your thoughts and questions if you have any! Short demo: https://youtu.be/doYcVNRtbAU

Outlines is a Python library that focuses on text generation with large language models. Brandon and I are not LLM experts and started the project a few months ago because we wanted to understand better how the generation process works. Our original background is probabilistic, relational and symbolic programming. Recently we came up with a fast way to generate text that matches a regex (https://blog.normalcomputing.ai/posts/2023-07-27-regex-guide...). The basic idea is simple: regular expressions have an equivalent Deterministic-Finite Automaton (DFA) representation. We…
