As for branding, IMO you could go a bunch of directions: Timelines Tempor (temporal) Chronos Chronografik Continuum Momentum (moments, memory, momentum through time) IdioSync (kinda hate this one tbh) Who knows! Those are just the ones that

If I understood correctly, it sounds like you could probably change very little of your current setup and just add in an extra step in a script where you use their CLI to upload new content after you do iOS backups [0] Files get hashed befo

Immich is fantastic. I'm itching to reply but not 100% sure what I want to say, I've got like a bunch of immediate, parallel thought processes about it. 1. I've got 25 years of photos and video that I originally organized by

Seconded, HandBrake[0] is great for routine tasks / workflows. The UI could be simplified just a tad for super duper simple stuff (ex. ripping a multi-episode tv show disc but don't care about disc extras? you kind of have to hunt

I kind of think we will see some industry attrition as a result of LLM coding and agent usage, simply because the ~ vIbEs ~ I'm witnessing boil down to quite a lot of resistance (for multiple reasons: stubbornness, ethics, exhaustion f

Recommended it before in other threads, I'm a big fan of CloudMailin [0] -- they've got some great inbound and outbound services, generous free tier, very simple integrations, useful and reliable dashboard. I've used SES, Sen

IMO file/folder structure in a project is a geographic mapping exercise. It's not that far off from city planning. I think it's so important to design the structure and naming conventions of a project with the ultimate goal o

Ok, very cool. But I want Netflix to explain it related to Seinfeld, which at 10-12 feet looks fine, but up close looks insane. Blocky MJPEG + grain filter?? It's not like we're on Pentium II processors anymore -- I can filter jus

Not at all, I've been doing this with ChatGPT and Claude for a long time. I only recently (last couple weeks) started playing around with Claude Code on command line (not in an IDE). I didn't like Cursor very much. YMMV

IMO comments so far seem to be not seeing the forest for the trees -- I can imagine incredible value for myself in a browser that hooks into a local LLM, writes everything it sees to a local timestamped database (oversimplification), parses

I can't really speak for psychology as a field other than a spectator, but I find it to be quite subjective. What I really meant was related to cocaine and nitrous oxide -- two very different substances that both result in wild egos, w

Yeah, keep in mind that significant abuse of the drugs mentioned are, uh, let's say, prone to inflating the ego rather than killing it and showing a different path. Kinda fills in some unspoken gaps about the 'discipline' of

I was fully "in" on webOS :( Still got a Palm Pre, Pre 2, Pre 3 and TouchPad in a box, and an LG webOS 2.0 OLED that died in the basement. Apps were built sort of like PhoneGap, but intentional and supported rather than a middlewa

Not to derail, but NFT mania (part of the opening salvo in the article) was the giant shitshow that it was -not- because the concept of unique digital bits in the possession of a single owner was a bad idea (or, the concept of unique verifi

Just conjecture, but this might also be what Apple does with a lot of their TV+ series that are filmed for Immersive / Spatial Video (shot stereoscopically and end up in MV-HEVC format). On a regular screen it ends up looking like a su
