Getting a FS going on the web has been such a brutal slog for me. There's some pretty decent existing projects lole lightning-fs but it feels like the web APIs have been changing & changing & I keep wanting newer. Very cool to

Node & ports architecture for assembling blocks of components. Really smart choices to build atop good existing tools. Vscode graphical editor. Seemingly just python code generation under the hood. Cool effort.

I get it, but building a prison for computing is a horrible fate to trap us in. Bad use constantly being used to consign us all to worse & worse forms of computing is a godforsaken trend.

Full circle eh. I wonder how well it compares to just trying to use the actual Whisper models on a variety of existing GPU capable bigger frameworks. I don't know much practically about how hard it would be to take the Whisper PyTorch

This is beautiful. I like the intro, it resonates. The Protean desire, the desire to be vast & powerful resonates to me as something not very dealt with, as something taboo. It's fun & useful framing. The whole article though f

I personally feel quite lucky & fortunate to have companies that have been quite social. Well over 50% of conversations only happen because of physical immediacy. One person grumbles or just looks stressed. Someone asks. A conversation

I agree & I don't. I'm sure that being an app store owner exposes you to the absolute worst just most constant stream of really really awful people doing the worst things, like, forever & ever. There are some warped incent

I'm not sure how willing I am to peg the PC platform to Microsoft. Just looking at the 1980's there were tons of operating systems being created & getting used. That there could be so many OSes was part & parcel to it sudd

It's wild that decades latter ARM still is so incredibly fantastically far behind x86 in building generic systems one can install a mainline Linux on. 99% of their uses are for appliances/phones, so it makes sense that they'r

Crazy day in dropping huge lawsuits, what with RED & counter-suer Nikon dropping their lawsuits as well. None of these have any resolution. The legal system just gets to keep ignoring the need to say anything about gobsmackingly massive

It was lovely that Steam tried to get so many folks to make Steam Boxes. Hopefully the Steam Deck doesn't have to remain singular. I, for one, think Windows is inferior for users, broadly, and hope the Deck becomes a replicateable succ
