Depends on the architecture.. They could have one SQLite instance per user and then have a single sweeper that goes through all last writes and then replicates it to the main instance - eventual consistency fanned out across files

Isn't cholesterol released into the bloodstream to protect arteries when it gets acidic, and over time turning into plaque buildup? Also, going the other way doesn't help either because if you got a spike in acid your arteries wou

It’s the perfect analogy! People these days complain about AI are complaining about how the sausage was made rather than how the sausage tastes. Prove me wrong

Thank you. I’ve been thinking about this for a while now and couldn’t express what I was thinking about… but when you linked information theory to thermodynamics, it clicked. Given the quantum fields were collapsed in the early universe, I

Using the superpowers skill will help fill in the gaps for what’s needed to one-shot (it’s more setup so you can one-shot). And if it gets it wrong, at least you have 80% scaffolding that you can ask to iterate on. Hoping you’ll get 100% yo

Fun fact - not every Christian sect believes in the trinity. Another fun fact, the Jewish God and the Christian God are the same… it’s just that the Jewish God didn’t have a son who was also himself that killed himself only to resurrect him

I looked at gptel and eca about a year and a bit ago… how far have they come, at the time they were more geared toward code completion and essentially a buffer for communications - but all while not having some kind of Ralph Loop, Skills, a

Not accepting a PR because it was purely written by AI is like saying PRs will only be accepted if the developer used a standing desk for more than 75% of the time during the code's creation. In the end, as long as the code is not shit
