Can I easily run whois, curl, dig, grep, python, browser/playwright? Yes. Was watching an agent with terminal access install its tools, configure them, then map my lab, find services, and guess stack just pure magic? Also yes. Did it c

The coordination and discipline required to build it is quite simply not there (or here, or anywhere). We will sooner have multi-gigabit space internet or 7G.

How often do you launch a fresh terminal though? I start mine with a script to have favourite tabs ready at boot and then generally not much afterwards.

Yes, there was a whole idea about civilizing and pacifying the world through economic cooperation that would foster middle class in countries across the world that would then in turn make them democratize and become peaceful trade partners.

China is bad and there's a moral argument there. But the reason you want to be careful with sending IP to China is quite pragmatic: they're willing and able to use it while competing with you. Is Alibaba interested in copying your

I don't get the point. That Anthropic or OpenAI have more expensive products than Alibaba? So does Apple, AWS/GCP, and pretty much any other large western company vs its Chinese counterparts.

I would rather we be great at tech and sovereign as byproduct than try to copy Americans, poorly. Trump's admin is trying to put breaks on new AI models. Meanwhile we will make procurement even heavier and slower with additional requir

Wait, wait, wait: browsers allow websites to store junk on my drive? They take up gigabytes of memory and still write to disk on top of this? Without even asking whether the site can use local storage? Years and years back when laptops stil

Does this affect people using the socks proxy feature? I generally connect to the same Mullvad server over wireguard (not their client) and then use different servers for socks proxy as exits. My clanker says no because socks proxies have a

The subsidies deployed by the industry are so massive I don't even know if consumers need public assistance here. It's kinda like the gov was subsidizing web hosting or basic banking. The price for a regular consumer already barel

This is very cool because it allows you to use any model. Obviously, it still lets the model and its operator see the entire context of the conversation. I quite like Moxie's Confer[1] approach to just encrypt the whole thing in such a

Another one is hijcking ctrl+click (open in the new tab) into mere click (open here). I am shocked how many ecommerce sites do this.

Just as you get used to something crazy after two decades, have kids, and are about to unleash it on them, it gets fixed. Will there be no boomer pleasures left for us millennials?

Yeah, what I am saying is that these votes, regardless of their formal content, are usually an expression of general anti-immigrant sentiment. Like voting for AfD. I doubt many people look at this organization and its leaders to conclude th

It is constantly shocking to me that no matter how many times and where in the west people vote against immigration (which is what most of these votes boil down to), they can never get it. It's truly a crown in the gutter moment where

LinkedIn (like Teams) is a Microsoft product. And it shows. However, they have a very generous free trial for sales/recruitment. You could probably activate it and get real support.

In general "being a person who", that is projecting identity, is boring. This is why you need polarization as a crutch. Being someone who's into competitive puzzle-solving, pop punk, or birdwatching is exactly the focus group
