Is the last release on GitHub from 2022 or is it me?

I think I'm like you in the sense that I'm a law abiding citizen in what I consider a high trust society. That said, I'm not naive to the fact that "having nothing to hide hence nothing to fear" doesn't cut it:

Let them start somewhere. Inequality has only accelerated in the past decades, undoing the fabric of the fair and democratic society which many/most people perceive as a condition for long-term stability. If taxing wealth isn't it

But then can't the case be made that narrower and stricter-defined use cases are better served by more conventional ML? If/Wherever efficiency is a concern, that is.

Or now that python has ~types, this is really an area where things could be improved. Filtering would just be lambda predicate with fields auto complete as seen in .NET, scala, etc

I would really love to try MD: besides the "tactileness" of it, the storage limits imposes to actively curate playlists and make compromises on how much/what music you can carry with you given the circumstances. An iPod class

The tactile experience is a nice throwback in a touchscreen mostly/no physical buttons present, but the display is garbage by modern standards, finding specific tracks sucks, and doing any amount of playlist management is an exercise i

For what's worth, I only really started using passkeys after committing to bitwarden/vaultwarden as my password manager. I've been skeptical of Google's/Apple's/Microsoft's passkey implementations for

Would you still adore it as much today, though? I know I don't adore my iPod classic as much now as I did in 2006, and that's inclusive of the nostalgia kick. It's just not very practical and usable in today's world.

Anthropomorphizing big matrices is how those "labs" managed to sell and advertise LLMs for more than what they are, and convince investors to shovel trillions into it. Really Claude should be looking for incentives NOT to do that,

US-made... Cloud products? Like there's anything US-specific or unique about Taiwan made/China assembled computers the instant it's sold by a US corporation?

Not OP, but your comment had me looking into it: the fact that it's Firefox-based is reason enough to give it some consideration: the Chrome monopoly we are currently under is not compatible with a healthy and neutral web.

I didn't mean that you were nonfactual, only that you overgeneralise.
110.
by ezst 3mo ago
That may sound obvious to you, but it's not for many, and this opinion of yours is shared by fewer and fewer people.

Haha, same vibe! Mine was running mandrake/mandriva + kde. Also programming on such a low specced device gave a superpower (and good coding hygiene): you would immediately spot memleaks and inefficient code because you would feel it as

Did my whole engineering curriculum as my single computer, ran MATLAB and other JVM GUIs/IDEs on 1GB RAM/Atom N450. The build and display were horrendous, but that was a good companion to take notes during lectures and in the lab.

Except there's no way for the Unicode standard to be prescriptive enough for the different implementations to express identical intent. And that's before the politics get mixed in (e.g. Apple's water gun). That's why you

by ezst 3mo ago
Except that the notes don't organize themselves, you just offload to a non-deterministic black-box to "lose them for you". Many (although, not all, true) give their PKMS a very opinionated shape, because the way knowledge is

I needed the "edit anywhere" capability, too, had a keen interest in logseq as a result, and now can't recommend Trilium more. https://triliumnotes.org/

by ezst 3mo ago
It can be both: I love being able to use Trilium "as a website" to check out my notes on other's (e.g. employer's) devices, and as a local first/fully offline/totally synced app during e.g. a flight trip or in
