This is a great point. I highly recommend "Liminal Thinking", which explains how what he calls "Battles for the Obvious" like this get started.

What I've been doing when I want to avoid this "unexpected leading", is to tell the LLM to "Ask me 3 rounds of 5 clarifying questions each, first.". The first round usually exposes…

I also tried Zed on Linux a few months back, and had GPU/driver issues, so it was either slow or didn't run. Tried it just now and it worked right out of the box, and it's incredib…

My son (11yo) has had this as well for the last 2.5 years. Seeing an Audiologist for treatment. Can you elaborate a little on "listening to violent noises" approach? When do you do…

I've started teaching my (homeschooled, 10yo) son Python, and he's been briefly exposed to some 3D software (including Blender). I'm curious: how do you imagine this working? Can y…

I'm the creator of the app that inspired this one, http://gingkoapp.com They say imitation is the best form of flattery, but I'm surprised Ray that you didn't credit Gingko at all.…

Interesting approach. I agree with the premise (code is structured, and shouldn't be handled as flat files). I've played with the idea of using my own card-tree editor as a LISP ed…

Comment #7514970
Lots of interesting points, but I disagree with the logic that "we are not designed to handle more than one layer at a time" necessarily implies that a tree-editor is impossible/un…

This is pretty much exactly what we're trying to achieve with Gingko. It's a full tree editor, that is being used for everything from PhD theses, to television screenplays. http://…

Thanks for the feedback! Yes, more than three layers deep is our highest priority, along with offline mode. And you are right, I meant "depth-first"; makes more sense.

I love overthinking things! It's true that if every card had a title, then import and export while maintaining the tree structure would be easy. But as it stands, if you have the f…

Most of the site is much more toned down, but I thought I'd share what I believe about Gingko's potential. I respect Nelson, but his intensity is off-putting... don't want to make …
