I'm confused are against the idea of private groups at all or just that you can't change the visibility settings later on?

I have a travellers journal and one of the inserts in that is my messy, unstructured brain dump of thoughts. The other two are for daily planning and the more structured long term …

I very much connect with the "I'm in grief but desperately trying to hold onto something long dead". People point to the smolweb (ugh, that term), Gemini, or something else as proo…

That's the one, having the chat interface to the side, with really nice support for various resume options and when prompting the CLI it's having reference to the buffer open has b…

This is working great, it plus the Claude code integration has really adjusted how much I use Emacs. It's become a bit of a hub for me now.

Okay, yup, this line of reasoning has me removing agents from my personal machines. I was enjoying the convenience and waved that internal niggle away with a vague feeling of "they…

I have a mudita kompact as my primary phone, is there any value in getting an additional device like this?

I would love if a device like this, combined with the zines of old would produce some really creative and interesting shortform content to get folks off smartphones. I'm trying to …

https://pi.dev/models is throwing an internal server error for me.

Looks nice, I'm forced to use OSX at work, but it's a hard no for another subscription.

No judgement whatsoever, but for almost everyone they too will think, no big deal you only install software through stores right? Nothing changes for them, in fact they can't conce…

Archive.org shows this went live last September: https://web.archive.org/web/20250108142456/https://learn.mic... It took ~5 months for anyone to notice and fix something that is ob…

You should be unbelievably proud of what you've achieved, and it's lovely to be reminded of the amazing things people can accomplish amongst the backdrop of almost deafeningly nega…

Yeah, I’m not disputing that AI-assisted engineering is a real shift. It obviously is. My issue is that we’ve now got a million secondary “paradigm shifts” layered on top: agent fr…

Probably, but which ones, do we get to a place where you have X years experience in Gastown development, but I only have Y years experience in Entire. I also keep getting job appli…

Christ, a $60m seed round. The AI fatigue is real, and the cooling-off period is going to hurt. We’re deep into concept overload now. Every week it’s another tool (don’t get me sta…

Highly relevant username!

This is a very good point. Years ago working in a LAMP stack, the term LAMP could fully describe your software engineering, database setup and infrastructure. I shudder to think of…

Looks like the status page is overloaded...

Not from the prices I'm seeing.
