I thought this was a right-of-publicity case where the "her" tweet basically misled people to believe the voice is of Scarlett Johansson, who's against the use of AI tech like any other Hollywood people?

I might be overthinking, but this "store" thing would not work that well. I blame GPT here, because I'm quite certain that GPT itself can be used to analyze and clone GPT apps, perhaps fully automatically. Even those extra k

Yup, Logseq is simply too different. It basically wants to go farther than what Obsidian aims to achieve. That said, some features of Logseq are janky, as they are not refined enough. I think Obsidian hit the sweat spot that is easy to impl

Technically, yes. You could even do this using MS Word, and wikis, of course, can do all of these. The only difference is that this is practically the first local-first app that maintains links automatically.

Right. X11 is just old and widely used. Wayland is entrenched in its own bad decisions. It used to be one legacy and one new thing, but now it's one legacy and another dragging its own legacy.

I agree. I'm already sick of reading through political hit pieces, exaggeration, biased speculations and unfounded bold claims. This all just turned into a kind of TV sports, where you pick a side and fight.

For DSP, we already can do that using something like Easy Effects[1][2]. Unfortunately, this isn't shippable for distros. The biggest issue is acquiring proper impulse-response data. In theory, it has to be tuned per-model, and turni

Rust is just doing its job here, but it's PITA that Rust is extremely bad at letting people to write inefficiently secure code concisely (i.e. scripting languages like Python). It wants you to go all-in from the day 1.
