I recently wrote about the PKM automation stack I run on a Mac + VPS with Tailscale, background agents, and Claude Code skills. A few people pointed out it's basically OpenClaw. They're right — same architecture, very different security posture. This post compares the defaults.

Please provide more information about what this does before immediately asking for me to set up an account.
There is no Antimemetics Division
This is the more interesting question, I think. 30+ years later still having dreams about exams for classes I forgot to drop, exams I didn’t study for, etc etc.
Having dreams about upcoming exams seems obvious compared to why a lot of us have dreams years and decades after your college years are over.
You may not have intended this use case, but Bebop serves as a really nice and quick front end for getting notes into Obsidian. I just set the Bebop save directory to the same as my Obsidian Vault inbox and I’m good to go. A widget would be a great add to quickly add content from the home screen.
Came here to be “that guy”. Never had a single cavity in over 50years of being alive and have really bad dental care habits. I brush once a day for about 30 seconds, don’t really floss and have gone up to 6 years between cleanings.
I don’t eat a lot of processed foods or foods high in sugar, but I don’t completely abstain from them either.
Nothing to do with Lumina directly, but I’ve always been curious about my dental microbiome and how something about it is different from others.
I often worry about new products like Lumina upsetting whatever balance I’ve got going on.
Looks really interesting and definitely a use case I face over and over again. The name just breaks my brain, I want it to be an R package but it’s Python. Just gives me a mild headache.
It’s like the old consulting adage: “If you’re not part of the solution, there’s money to be made by prolonging the problem.”
Yeah, it’s GOST not GHOST. maybe they spell the acronym as GhOST or G(h)OST to add to the number of skipped characters.
Both the “Get the TestFlight” buttons lead to a Stripe checkout for nanodevpro.com totaling $79. At least on mobile they do.
Before somebody stole their cinnamon roll.
Tiny suggestion, add the time zone of the daily update to the 8am on your website. It appears to be Eastern (UTC-4 at time of comment) but this could be due to fact that I’m in the Eastern time zone.
Cherry-picking maybe? You’re selecting only the data that supports your argument.
It does. arc’s my daily driver. Best vertical tabs implementation I’ve run across (for me).
I am genuinely concerned about the author's mental well-being. This is not an ad hominem attack. Based on the limited sample size of this one article, I am genuinely worried. I sincerely hope they are aware of the help available and are willing to seek it. As someone who also struggles with mental health and has recently sought help beyond medication, I have become more attuned to mental health issues in others.
Oddly not paywalled for me but yes, the article is based on that preprint.
I usually rephrase it as “getting run over by the lottery” or “winning a bus”. Just to be different/humorous/less morbid.
Exactly why I had one as well. I never felt more sci-if than using my MD player. I actually miss that thing. The build quality was amazing.
I’ll come to the defense of Arkansas Blacks. They are definitely better than Red Delicious. They’re just really hard and quite tart with a faint green flesh. Red Delicious are mealy and tasteless.
I love the Arkansas Blacks, but they wouldn’t be everyone’s cup of tea.
> draw real time as you explain, which allows you to draw based on audience understanding and what you want to focus on
This is critical. While I took formal flow charting and diagramming in college, it can’t replace real time diagramming as you explain.
When I was in consulting, we would often project Visio diagrams on a whiteboard and then extend them using markers. As we moved through the explanation process. My Visio jockey would the transcribe the whiteboard notation to Visio diagrams once we all agreed on the approach. This allowed us to collaborate with the flexibility of a whiteboard while confirming and capturing the final documentation as we went.
Martin’s just happy to be here.
I saw that the adaptation existed but immediately thought, there’s no way they could get it “right”
As the word changes, do the green letters I may have gotten always remain green? They remain valid letters and always stay in the same location?
I have not played Disco yet, but have been tempted. Thanks for the comparison to The City & The City, easily one of my favorite books and such a mind bend. If you’ve not watched Counterpart with J.K. Simons is very similar in feel, to me at least. Shame it was never finished.
It seems interesting but their acquisition by Databricks stopped development on Bamboo last year.
