Waiting for a neckband/choker wearable that can take transcription from my vocal cord nerve, so I can operate a chatbot silently. Yes, scientists have made impulse-to-speech lab equipment.

Git/SSH could be a great interface for more tools. Copy a binary to a server, chmod a few files and you have sync for password manager, RSS reader, notes app etc. 8$ VPS for a year (Racknerd) without Nginx or LetsEncrypt. OpenClaw is o

Wonder if VCs and giant companies encourage overhiring and bloat in their (open source) products to promote first party hosting while pretending to be self hostable. Seen one product needing Docker and Auth0 to self host, but two products h

How unserious/serious are the universities? Heard of diploma mills in Canada taking international students, letting them spend most of their time waiting at coffee shops and award them MBAs so they can be full time waiters and citizens

Tangential, when you mentioned "Full-text (BM25) and semantic (pgvector) search", what are the significant benefits of the latter? I used to think of BM25 indexes as vectors of documents, which support search, "more like this

One dev of a Lovable competitor pointed me to the rules thats supposed to ensure queries are limited to that user's data. This seems like "pretty please?" to my amateur eyes. https://github.com/dyad-sh/d

Tangential, did Gitlab become faster than a while back or is it an illusion from their lazy loading?

Is this profitable? Can imagine it competing with programming tools like Replit, Val town, Openclaw; acting as server for occasionally syncing tools like Bitwarden, Obsidian; webhook receiving tools; VPSes etc.
