How is this not any different than the Apple "you're holding it wrong" argument. I mean the critical reason for that kind of response being so out of touch is that the same people praise Apple for its intuitive nature. How ca

For my iPhone I made a dumb script using the Shortcuts app. It's a horrendous app that combines all the worst parts of a scripting language with all the worst parts of a visual language. But I'm not sure how else to do it besides

Yeah my dotfiles, notes, and scripts are in a single repo. I think the most important thing to do is organize. I just match the system. So I put everything that a rc file in ~/ in one directory and everything in ~/.config in anoth

While I'm a big fan of that paper, as a ML researcher I can confidently state that it is not well accepted. I can also confidently state that it is not well known. I think there is a critical flaw in the paper though. Not critical from

Has the refresh rate on eink devices reached like 30-60fps? It definitely looks cool and I might give it a try, but I do love my dark mode and color syntax. My understanding is that color on eink is pretty limited. It also isn't worth

Just trying to help given that you responded. I'm happy to help you find solutions but the constraints might be too much, unfortunately. If you don't have a machine that can run local AI and don't have the funds to buy one th

Are there any benefits besides a nice GUI? I'm fairly comfortable with my linux desktop as an interface. TBH the most frustrating part is the iPhone shortcut app I made which I strongly believe is less about me and more than Apple is a

In the last 5 years I pretty much fully migrated to my laptop being a terminal for other machines. I more use it like a local machine in HPC: web browsing, word processing, scripting. Anything serious is done remotely. But I also live in th
