the gif in the readme has visibly broken ui (the text on the right in the header is not vertically aligned)

i'm not convinced a human has ever actually looked at this project; this must be the work of someone's overzealous openclaw agent or something.

the Fremen express freedom of speech despite overwhelming oppression

> So sex, alcohol and drugs are not an issue today, but gambling, addiction, disenfranchisement, exploitative business practices, mind-boggling amounts of corruption - they're all back in the same form and for the same reasons

what is sex referring to in this context? is this talking about societal attitudes toward sex, sex as in gender, or something else?

this is an interesting interpretation. i always imagined the jihad as being a violent struggle.

the other jihad in the first novel is that of the Fremen, which is described as being unspeakable violent, so I find it hard to imagine these to be different in that regard.

i’m not sure how to distinguish any difference from modern reality from what you seem to consider plot-armour to be.

what does the Butlerian Jihad “working” mean?

this feels like a direct descendent of this work of art:

themes are actually possible on macos

Unfortunately the demo doesn't work on Firefox from me due to the WebGPU requirement. The creator does have a video that shows off the technique nicely however:

> Agents, by making it easiest to write code, means there will be a lot more software.

He's saying that agents make code much cheaper, therefore there will be a large increase in demand for code. This appears to be exactly what you're describing.

Is data about how long links are on the front page available publicly anywhere?

I find Zed has some really frustrating UX choices. I’ll run an operation and it will either fail quietly, or be running in the background for a while with no indication that it is doing so.

Okay, you’re right that the LLM writing style isn’t singularly producible by LLM’s. However, I’m not sure why this writing style would become increasingly common? I don’t see why people would mimic text that is seen as low quality or associated with academic dishonesty.

Additionally, I do think it is valuable to determine if a piece of text is valuable, or more precisely, what I’m looking for. As others have said, if I want info from a LLM about a subject, it is trivial for me to get that. Oftentimes I am looking for text written by people though.

I think Google Docs does this automatically.
