C-suites barely had a grip on reality before AI came in and started yes and -ing everything :( It's really going to be a top-down destruction of everything

I'm on Android and honestly love how it looks, but you can blue-ify your links and change the line spacing if you want. Settings > Appearance > Custom CSS and you can do anything y…

PE was created in a time where phones were VERY unimpressive when it came to compute

Currentsite isn't as good as it was in pastdate, the grass is greener on othersite!

They don't need to actually filter/blackhole to have have the same virtual effect. Show someone a list of resumes with an "applicant score*" and they'll naturally ignore the ones w…

The same reason that they don't do that for Email. It's a lot more complicated for little obvious gain

You're treating Mastodon as the protocol here, and sure it's a combined frontend/backend, and it is the most used one, but its just one implementation of the AP protocol. You can p…

I think they're saying that frontier LLMs may be usable to spot citations that are correct by shape (a real citation) but incorrect by usage (unrelated to the text) I kind of hate …

It'll depend immensely on what you're actually doing, but if it's simple enough you may be able to make a macro that subs out the types & awaits

It isn't web based? It's a set of Lua scripts that run locally

1Password has really been bugging me recently, all the emails they send have giant link buttons they want you to click without verifying where you're actually going

Our organic artisanal code is written by free-range developers

IIRC Thunderbird is a fork of Firefox, so it can do all of the web things your heart desires

My local build of helix is 20MB, did you use the suggested flags on the install guide page?

> Is there some established AI-agnostic protocol/interface? AFAIK no

I desperately wish Helix would support virtual text (code folder, markdown links just showing the text when not selected), but the default keybinds and the way that selecting and e…

I know it's not a proper fix, but helix does have `:reload` and `:reload-all` commands I have reload-all bound to Ctrl-r
