Run Ollama In The Menu Bar On macOS With Custom Host Bindings

By default ollama runs on the localhost IP address of 127.0.0.1. But if you want to host it on macOS somewhere else, it requires a system-wide environment variable change. The developers of ollama recommend running this command, and then relaunching ollama:

launchctl setenv OLLAMA_HOST "0.0.0.0"

This works great! If you want to run this automatically at startup you can use a small AppleScript to create an application, and then add that application to your Login Items.

First, open Script Editor and paste the following code:

do shell script "launchctl setenv OLLAMA_HOST \"0.0.0.0\""
tell application "Ollama" to run

This will bind all IP addresses to ollama and then launch it. Obviously, you can bind any specific IP address you like.

Next, in the File menu use the Export command to create an Application that is signed to run locally. Quit Script Editor and then put the new application in your Applications folder.

Finally, search for “Login Items” in System Settings. Remove any existing Ollama application from the list, and add your application.

Now when you restart and sign in, your application will launch, set the environment variable for the host binding, launch Ollama, and quit.

So if IVF embryos are legally considered children can we claim them as dependents on our taxes? Can we do this every year since they never physically age? Do they legally age each year giving them the right to vote in 18 years? If they were implanted after 20 years would they qualify for social security at age 35? I have questions.

Sometimes I think that parents send infuriating MAGA texts to their kids just to get a text message from them between holidays.

MAGA is a dirty word. It’s a word that requires blind support for Trump; leave your critical thinking skills at the door. Bend to your confirmation bias. As Trump once said at a Veterans of Foreign Wars Convention in Kansas City, Mo, “don’t believe what you’re reading or seeing”. And his credulous supporters are happy to oblige. It’s madness.

It looks like we’re on-track to have VGER come back with so much research data that it will inadvertently destroy the earth.

As a software developer, when I hear the term “alpha male” I think these males must be unstable, missing important features, ridden with flaws, and not fit for public use.

Our Sneaker Con con-man Trump is selling $400 ugly sneakers. He doesn’t even wear sneakers. I don't think he has EVER worn sneakers. In his life. And they're made on-demand in (you guessed it) China. No existing stock. Because he sells ugly sneakers like a shady GoFundMe so when no one buys them he's not stuck with inventory. And he knows that's how this would go down.

If someone cheats on their taxes, cheats on their bank loans, cheats on elections, cheats on paying contractors, cheats at golf, cheats on magazine covers, and cheats on their wives, don’t ignore the pattern and assume they won’t cheat you too.

Overzealous app design patterns for mouse hover modals, tips, and cards frequently cause user frustration by obscuring the items with which a user wants to interact. I see this all the time in everything from websites to software development IDEs. The solution? Exercise restraint and add options to disable these hover actions.

The Hobby Lobby funded Super Bowl commercial about Jesus being poor and washing feet is a good reminder that Joel Osteen takes money from the poor and doesn't wash his own feet.
