First off, very cool project and great article showcasing it! Why does it also have MIDI?

Where is the city of Dinipro from? It's not one of the 55 from this book and I can't find anything about what you're describing on the internet.

AI obviously.

It's basically a derogatory term for AI. I've seen it used the same way a slur would be used to berate a person.

Also of every request you send with your language's request library if you use default settings. And they can do it without you being able to detect it.

Depends on what your metric is. If you care about profitability it could turn out to be the least successful product of all time.

Wow, embark is very well done! I feel like there is some sort of solution space between notes, whiteboards, jupyter notebooks and Arcan FE that could make knowledge organization much easier, but it's such a huge space to even comprehend in the first place I can only ever hold part of the solution in my head.

Have you played the arcade game in the letter C yet? If not, then you've probably missed other stuff as well.

What do you mean by that? To me it seems like every single letter is pretty much hand-written and attributed to one or two team members.

I wholeheartedly agree with your comment and have thought a lot about how I would solve these problems. Considered founding a startup as well, but the market size is very unclear. I would say in theory, cloud-in-a-bottle already comes quite far. The only thing missing is another tier where imbue only provides you with a domain and a reverse-proxy so your home-server is reachable. Of course, their software would then also habe to manage the whole certificate lifecycle and DNS-challenge, but if it did, then you can have your server at home and not have to worry about how it manages to be reachable from the internet.

However, if I'm understanding you correctly, a solution like this would also be too much vendor lock-in for you, correct? If so, how independent do you wanna go? I think especially if you want people to be able to self-host from home, you will always need some proxy in the cloud. Or are you considering a DDNS setup?

Hmm, I agree that the problems are real and very relevant and anadu intended to offer a solution. But it was simply never finished enough to actually solve them.

100% agree. The mac mini was offered with 8GB for some time as well, and when my dad needed a new desktop, I thought that would be a good option. It was basically unusable. Even when you only have a few finder windows and a few (less than 5) tabs in safari open, you can feel the swap slowing down the system; just opening a folder or a new tab is noticeably slow, opening safari itself takes multiple seconds, and with just that basic usage you can run into the out-of-memory dialogue, something I had never seen before in macOS.

I have no idea how apple can believe that the neo won't damage their brand reputation. They must have optimized something to make 8GB viable.

This is fascinating. I scrolled through that page and immediately felt like something was marketed to me. I actively hated reading this because it felt so much like the tech company's buzzword-filled landing pages that I have come to despise over the course of my career.

But giving the paper to Claude and having a dialogue about it was a very pleasant experience because I could ask questions to focus on the parts that seemed most interesting to me.

Anything particular about perplexity that helps you replace web search, or do you mean any LLM-Chat with access to web sources would suffice?

Are they? I couldn't find any info about this and my past perception has been that Anthropic has a stronger moral codex than other AI companies, so I would be genuinely interested in where you got this information from.

What was your process? Decompilation and porting to typescript? Crosscompilation to wasm?

You clearly didn't read the whole article. He specifically explains multiple options for how you can get any software onto the system you want.

The goal of this project is to provide a platform that regular developers can write apps for and that regular users can understand and be productive on with minimum friction.

There is no loss of freedom here.

Could you explain what you like about it? I feel like I'm missing something. I've listened to half an hour now and there have been a like five minutes of substance, the rest is self-references and jarring editing.

If I listen to a podcast I want to learn something, gain a new perspective, listen to a well-moderated conversation or at least laugh.

This podcast does none of those things. Literally doing nothing and letting my thoughts wander is more interesting than listening to this.

> It is a pity but people do not read much these days.

This is a common belief, but it's just not true. The book industry is healthier than ever.

Could you explain how? Does it do something funky in the venv that uwsgi doesn't understand?

I don't really understand how the data can be "only briefly exposed" but also it could be confirmed that the records were all new and never-before-seen. Like, is this a problem now or isn't it?

How is that relevant? A few examples do not disprove anything. It's pretty common knowledge that the more successful/rich etc. your parents were, the more likely you'll be successful/rich etc.

This does not directly prove the theory your parent comment posits, being that better circumstances during a child's development improve the development of that child's brain. That would require success being a good predictor of brain development, which I'm somewhat uncertain about.

This makes me curious; have there ever been security exploits that utilized the font rendering as an actual attack vector? To me it feels like font rendering should be pure (in the functional sense) and thus have no side-effects, but of course that doesn't mean anything in practice.

I have been dreaming of creating a mixed hardware/cloud service that would make this possible again in today's internet. Basically, you can open an account and get your own domain and nextcloud + mastodon + wordpress instance. You pay based on how much storage you use. If you want, you can get your entire cloud shipped to your home, attach it to a router there, and then you only pay for my service to be the gateway to the server you have at home. All the data is at home, you have full control.

Of course, the defaults would have to be basically zero-management. But people would be able to choose how much control over their own data they want versus how convenient they want it to be. Right now, it's pretty much all or nothing.

Those broad rules were proposed and rejected on the basis of being too broad. That is exactly what the mentions of "concern trolling" are about, and as that is an effective way of preventing any change to the structure that would allow to drive those people out, this cycle has continued for months, if not years.

I posted this somewhere else, but I feel it's important to note here:

Forking Nix would take an immense amount of effort, and the maintainers are already overworked. There would absolutely be a community split, which means that there would be even more work required than before to just maintain both of the forks and keeping them in sync. The nix language itself has no spec right now, meaning the behavior is defined by the singular existing implementation. Forking Nix itself will very likely introduce incompatibilities that are impossible to remedy. A lot of the power of nix comes from nixpkgs (where the entirety of NixOS is maintained as well), its build system hydra and the binary cache, the servers, CDNs and agents for which are sponsored by external companies (we're talking 0€ cost for something that would normally cost 10s of thousands every year). Forking would lose all of that, it's pretty much impossible financially.

> I think it really warrants saying it without sugarcoating... this is exactly what a terrorist does.

What about this situation made you think it warrants saying that? What is your definition of a terrorist? I thought a terrorist was a person that spread terror by acts of violence. Which is not what's happening here.

This answer by the developer of Rufus clears up this common misconception amongst Linux users; copying an .iso file to a USB drive with dd is the correct way to create a bootable drive and has the same result as burning the .iso to a physical disk.

TL:DR; This works with basically all Linux Distros, but only because of a hack/software called isohybrid.
