I'm sure this in jest, but my real answer: I remember so much more when I have notes to look back on. I store mine as some YYYY-MM-DD-Notes.txt and edit via local web UI or terminal/SSH. It's a blast to browse and see what

Personally, I just want the ability to export from the stock iOS Notes app as plaintext at all. Currently I need to copy/paste my notes into my own editor or dump them .pdf and extract. I won't even be using markdown, I just want

Sometimes I like to think of myself as the CEO of my life. Why yes, I'm the CEO and make all critical decisions around Me, LLC. However, the founders have disvested and retired in another city. :)

Great point! I suppose then it would be trivial to add ones own USB-C port if desired.

This is insanely cool. It's a beautifully written article that covers all the major design decisions and issues that affected the final outcome. I'm considering purchasing one for myself and to support the developer. It would be a

I know this wasn't meant literally, but it does make for an interesting thought experiment - under what circumstances might it be valid to dial 911 to ask for the time? My first thought was something like a nuclear operator - "we

I really like NT 4.0 as well. In my experience the stability varied based on hardware and driver support, though. I tried running NT 4.0 on a "relatively fast" K6-3+ system with GeForce 2 and AWE64 but had weird issues, like sound

Beautiful writing in which I support fully. I appreciate Harvard for standing up against unlawful pressures and clearly communicating its support for current and future students. Let's go, Harvard! Let's learn and grow in response

Great overview. I wonder if we'll start to see more text diffusion models from other players, or maybe even a mixture of diffusion and transformer models alternating roles behind a single UI, depending on the context and request.

I think it would be cool if you kept some of the original Friendster design and color pallette, at least to start. I would love a "classic" social media site with a modern backend and mobile friendly frontend. For example, Faceboo

I agree, it's impressive. It brings me back to early Windows when keyboard control was a first class citizen in the UI, and most functions had dedicated alt key combos per dialog.

This is kind of how plywood is made - take wood chips and glue and press them together. I feel it wouldn't work well with sawdust, even with the chemical and heat+pressure process, since there would be little natural cohesion between t

I personally find pleasure in reading my old notes, even ones that contain outdated ways of thinking, incorrect assumptions, etc. If anything, it helps me reflect on the growth that's occurred. I agree it's not necessarily product

It's very impressive to see "realistic" graphics on the N64. The demo reminds me of "ICO" for the PS2. I've always wondered if it would be possible to create an SDK to abstract the N64 graphics hardware and exp

Same. I had nearly full administrative privs on the laptop, yet I get "Access denied" trying to deprioritize the scan. We got new hardware recently, so we should be good until the scanners catch up and consume even more resources.
