Letting the provider decide for the harness is a terrible idea in my eyes. Outsourcing harnessing is giving up control over the AI and equivalent to abandoning your sovereignty. It…

That would be ideal, but AI is less like a tool and more like a human in this regard and you don't have character sheets for each of your colleagues, as well.

Maybe it is just me, but by far most of the time, when I want to archive something from the internet, it is information and information is best served in an absolutely minimal text…

You make it sound as if "coding" was a distinct thing with clear boundaries in the technical world. But this critically misses the fact that coding agents dramatically lowered the …

It seems like many people have the same or similar ideas. I was thinking of using a tool similar to bookmark-managers as the foundation of a new web. Where you subscribe to RSS-fee…

That's like saying Spotify wouldn't be a good example, because it outsourced music production to musicians and just not a meaningful point.

I thought that early coding assistants came to be written in some Java/TypeScript, because AI companies just had web-devs playing around and then made it a product even though the …

I like rants though. They help me understand, not only how people feel about stuff, but also why.

That's not a factual statement over reality, but more of a normative judgement to justify resignation. Yes, professionals that know how to actually do these things are not abundant…

That's a Microsoft problem, not a FOSS problem though.

I can't turn it off on my Samsung Galaxy S23 which I originally bought, because it was not marketed with AI. The patched it in later and ever since it just randomly starts as if it…

I was also baffled how the author completely fails to realize, that the US didn't just abandon Europe, but is actively exploiting and working on undermining it.

Not what I imagined under neo brutality.

Do you have specific things in mind to which you refer as more modern alternatives?

I find this topic of link aggregation, feeds and readlists highly interesting and believe that herein lies the solution for a new web similar to like reddit basically imagined it, …

Taking control of your own data is shitloads of work, I and understand people do not have time it, and have other priorities. That's not a physical law, but just the result of the …

wdym? We are in Edward Snowden times. The timeline where Edward Snowden gave up on an awesome life to inform us, the global public, of the greatest scandal of all times and nothing…

I don't even understand the problem: ESC and the following key is generally just an alias for ALT+key.

Your refusal of 996 is relatable for senior or mid level workers. But that's something less experienced people can not afford and in this market even unlucky seniors are forced to …

> Europe’s trade negotiators will outclass Trump’s B-Team Hardly matters. As long as von-der-Leyen remains head of commission the European Union stays devoted to the US no matter t…

> The way to understand it is when you catch yourself almost falling asleep at night while reading something. You lose the ability to understand anything, even though you are still…

Anyways, we as informed consumers are hopefully all agreeing on striving for an open mobile OS and open hardware. For those of us, who consider themselves democratic, that is even …

How do you actually read man pages? Do you skim them, to actually read and focus on interesting parts? Do you try to memorize features?

To be fair, I presume learning a tool by manual is not very efficient. At least I personally find the manuals of most utilities lacking in detail and it hence difficult to understa…

They probably learned Russian in school in the former communist part of Germany.
