    OP here, the actual content of the missing domain is here: https://somosazucar.github.io/www-blog/ for now

    I sometimes use llm from the command line, for instance with a fragment, or piping a resource from the web with curl, and then pick up the cid with `llm gtk-chat --cid MYCID`.

    For all of you using `llm` - perhaps take a look at [Gtk-llm-chat]( https://github.com/icarito/gtk-llm-chat ). I put a lot of effort into it - it integrates with `llm` command line…

    That's right this is a nontrivial problem that I struggled with too for gtk-llm-chat! I resolved it using the streaming markdown-it-py library.

    Hey I felt bad that there was a longer delay and by making sure to lazy-load everything I could, I managed to bring down the startup time from 2.2 seconds to 0.6 on my machine! Mas…

    I've got a i5-10210U CPU @ 1.60GHz. You triggered my curiosity. The chat window takes consistently 2.28s to start. The python interpreter takes roughly 30ms to start. I'll be doing…

    I'd truly like to know! But I've no access to a Mac to try. If you can, try it and let me know? If it does, please send a screenshot!

    I wonder! In my more modest setup, it takes a couple of seconds perhaps. After that it's quite usable.

    Yeah I agree, I've been thinking about using Rust. But ultimately it's a problem with GTK3 vs GTK4 too because if we could reuse the Python interpreter from the applet that would s…

    Comment #43755106

    Yeah absolutely, I've just got to point where I'm happy with the architecture so I'll continue to add UI. I've just added support for fragments and I've thought to add them as if t…

    Show HN: Light like the Terminal – Meet GTK LLM Chat Front End

    Author here. I wanted to keep my conversation with #Gemini about code handy while discussing something creative with #ChatGPT and using #DeepSeek in another window. I think it's a …

    I think this is big. The fact that it isn't saddens me.

    I suffer from the limitations of both X11 and Wayland. Some things work in one and not the other, it's a trade off. In Wayland I can use different scaling for each monitor (in exch…

    I think Linus's major contribution to the world is Git, name coincidences notwithstanding.

    I downloaded the 64bit Linux build and it has a strange executable called "payload". I moved it out of precautio and still launched the app, and it seems to work fine without this …

    Great manual. I helped deliver two babies following this and the book for midwives. Fortunately haven't needed it for anything else!

    Forgot to mention `pingus` is a lemmings-alike. Good for logic, also comes with a map editor which my kids like.

    There's plenty! Try `childsplay`, `pysiogame` for collections of didactic activities. Other fun individual games are `raincat`, `colobot`. Try `rabbit escape` also. For fun (we let…

    I also have fond memories of QBasic and a 7 year old. I agree with few comments here that: - Javascript has the best deployability - Python has the nice syntax - QBasic was a nice …

    Hi, author here, thanks for submitting this :-) It's meant for writing Nuxt.js apps, so mostly for the Web, generally not Desktop (unless you use a Electron style Webview).
