Really cool! I’d love to try those switches. Can’t imagine using a non-split keyboard though. Great work regardless. Stunning.

Can’t even get my friends to buy a used electric car instead of a diesel. Which is an improvement in drivability and comfort - maybe a mild inconvenience for some. Imagine trying t…

So with Chat Control 2.0 your nudes are collected and viewed by some creeps in a room somewhere. They are automatically viewed — nej, shared — with a bunch of strangers. Great.

Game play bots (monsters, commanders maybe) would be really cool. But it needs long term support and probably local AI instead.

What are your use case for these? I’m manly interested in coding where more capability is better - give me a 10x model at 10x the price and I’ll take it. A worse model at very low …

They portray 5h charging at home as a downside. Something to scorn at. But, how long does it take to fill up a diesel truck at home? I haven’t gone to a gas station since getting a…

I can see three reasons: 1. They have left over capacity that will go unused otherwise. Most users have hit their limits before the end of the week. Might as well get some use out …

I run Windows on all my computers but was pleasantly surprised by the desktop mode on SteamOS. The incredible number of options on a simple config dialog such as changing the keybo…

Every time I try one of the newer models I don’t want to go back. What is the value of a dumper model? It makes more mistakes. Wastes more of my time. At anything below Opus 4.8 I’…

I was thinking this too. Then it might as well look like a normal font. But copy-paste and you get a garbled mess. Screen readers though.

Absolutely, but more focused on smaller groups. Family and friends. I think it has to do with the encryption scheme. Large groups are probably tricky. Therefore the app isn’t built…

Sounds a lot like we might as well use Discord?

Agreed. I don’t see the appeal compared to Signal. Although, Signal is also sketchy with an operating cost in the tens of millions of dollars per year. Where does the money come fr…

Remember people. We didn’t die form the 2k bug. We didn’t die when the Maya calendar ran out. We didn’t die from that asteroid or the other. Spreading fear is a very old pastime. H…

I play a lot. Competitive shooters mostly. Most of them are unplayable for one or two reasons. Cross play (controllers with aim assist) and cheaters. As a PC player I would like to…

Me and my friend wanted git for a game project. Setting up a VPN for this felt overkill. Turns out git provides a very nice transport abstraction though. So I built an iroh transpo…

This makes me sad. We have these type safe languages, then a DB comes along and brakes the type barrier. What are we to do? Property attributes and an ORM? Is there a Linq to SQL t…

I think the opposite is in order. Ban phones with screens for those over 18 (driving limit). Phones are a drug that people cannot seem to let go off. Even when driving. Kids don’t …
