    i think "self-hosted", "home" or "company"/"office" should be the term we use, instead of "local", since 1. every LLM is _local_ in relation to the location the storage and/or the …

    The agent sessions (traces) would be very educational too. Would it be possible to share the jsonl files too, like how Mario Zechner shared his chats with the AI, while working on …

    i'm also using https://betterdisplaymac.com/ for this purpose. even on a native 2K monitor, having a virtual 5K frame buffer downscaled to 2K yields perfectly enjoyable results, co…

    I just received this Keychron B11 Pro semi-split kbd with scissor keys: https://www.keychron.com/products/keychron-b11-pro-ultra-sli... pretty amazing so far. put together a SpaceF…

    Pi is the Emacs of coding AI agents. It's a pity it's written in TS, but at least it can draw from a big contributor pool. There is https://eca.dev/ too, which might worth consider…

    a good reason for getting used to the M-n/p/r binding is that they work in the minibuffer too, even in `emacs -Q` (though without live feedback, but i think that's a fine compromis…

    i second the eat package recommendation. there are some quirks with it though, given it has a couple of input modes. i think everyone should read its fantastic documentation 1st to…

    i also thought i can't get used to it, but i can! otherwise, as others have mentioned it, remap the keys! also, you can talk to some LLM about it, if you feel it would be tedious t…

    Were there any immediate benefits of this conversion, e.g. reduced memory use or lower CPU utilization?

    no. as others have stated too, the following should be mentioned - what's the 2 meaning in BMP - it's designed as a monospaced (or proportional?) bitmap font - designed in a single…

    In earlier versions of Apple OSes, you could edit the menus yourself, with the officially supplied resource file editor app and there was nothing really special about it. There are…

    I wonder, how rigidly has the JSON format been baked into the protocol. It feels like a shortsighted choice, just because it's prevalent in recent decades. It took years to impleme…

    Great. It's finally as snappy as recompiling the "Borland Pascal version of Turbo Vision for DOS" was on an Intel 486 in 1995, when I graduated from high school... They C version o…

    Can you give some pointers to some popular implementations or algorithms in any language, please? Is there some "industry standard" or "best practice" for such a metric? I guess Bi…

    While I agree with what we don't need, something is still off with the UI. I can't really put my finger on any specific problem, though. It's just a gut feeling. The names are bold…

    @shiomiru What's the best resource (paid or free) in your opinion for learning about these TTY related concepts? I'm aware of https://www.linusakesson.net/programming/tty/index.php…
