Re:Show HN: Cursor for LibreOffice Week 2&3 (AI agents and voice) on Tuesday March 17, 2026 @11:05PM (#47421181)
Hey all,

Repo here: https://github.com/KeithCu/writeragent

I think local (and privacy-respecting) LLM integration could make LibreOffice more used by regular people. Happy to fix any issues people find.

People are better off moving away from AWS anyway, which is expensive and proprietary: https://medium.com/@keithccurtis/why-the-dod-should-use-open...

Glad you like it! It is Linux focused. Unlike Drudge, I'm not choosing the articles. The Slashdot feed is the main feed. The Linux-only feed has only about one article per day so it would be too boring. However, it is customizable, so add your own RSS feeds if you think it is missing something. Or send me a URL and I'll think about adding it to the default page.

Thanks! It is a small project in Flask, including caching and customization.

I don't have a dark mode yet, but maybe someone who cares will fork it on GitHub or GitLab ;-)

It has good ideas I tried to borrow from: fast, simple 3 column layout, no ads everywhere, constantly refreshing, etc.

I don't read it anymore, but I used to check it regularly to find out what was going on in the world. It is one of the most popular websites in America with 1B hits / month.

I didn't question his right to make a decision, I just wanted to know who was involved.

It isn't an attack to remind someone they might be biased.

It's not a threat as I have no interest in getting involved with a PyTorch fork.

I didn't order to give more information, I asked. I want to quote him and his first answer didn't give very much info.

I didn't accuse him of wasting my time by saying I spent several minutes looking. I just wanted to make it clear that I wasn't being lazy and wasn't able to find any public information on how PyTorch came to be lax.

I didn't say they should roll over. My point is that I don't know if this is an effort built by a small group who have done most of the work and want to keep it a lax license, or if this is a codebase that has a large community of random people who might want that protection.

You might know of PyTorch, but tons of people don't compared to Google's Tensorflow.

Thanks for the tips!
