Reading Slow Productivity by Cal Newport, discovered via onboarding content in mymind mymind.com

My son's new class doesn't have a Smith, Johnson, or Williams. It's the Hughes kid who breaks in at . I expect these kids with strong stage names to have pants and personalities to match.

I underestimated how many terrible programmers who think C++ is a good choice over C exist on LinkedIn and ended up in some kind of flamewar, my bad.

Blargh. I've got that dry tickle in the throat where you know you're getting sick. Begone, virulent tingle, begone!

This has been me the last few days. Blossomed into a proper scratchy throat today. Hoping to keep an escalation in symptoms at bay.

Zinc lozenges I’ve found helpful at this stage.

Developed a Vinboard (my pinboard.in clone) shortcut, works really well. On iOS it lives in Share menu, on macOS in the Dock. Click sends the current browser page (Safari, Chrome, Zed, Firefox) for bookmarking. On the server side Jev decides tags from 60 least recently used; and archival opens a real Chrome to save the whole page for posterity. Unlimited API limits and direct requests to the database. Pinboard charges for much less functionality $22/year.

What if AI will never reach full autonomy and humans are still needed to give direction and purpose and take responsibility - probably... not all humans like to be masters of AIs all day long and not all (who want to) can do that equally well.

theres going to need to be a human or company to hold accountable when something goes wrong

Microsoft Word Online (web version) is horrible.

replied to:

It was the only way to reproduce the authentic horrible experience of the offline version.

replied to:

🤣 Did not remember the offline version being this bad, but maybe it went downhill in the past 5 years I have not used it.

…

replied to:

I never used the online version, but the last time I used the offline version it already was a horrible experience. This was about 5 years ago, before I had moved entirely to Linux. It was so bad I downloaded a pirated version of some old MS Office 2007 Blue Edition to have something acceptable. I unironically prefer Libre Office.

Water sort is a fun game available on fdroid on Android devices.

replied to:

Nice! Was an opportunity to install F droid also, didn’t know it can be installed like a normal app, I was under the impression it was an OS replacement. This is neat, perhaps we can deploy textlog app there? cc

replied to:

Certainly think so! I just hope to get rid of the scan warning at one point cause it's also annoying..

Greetings.

did they silently decrease the subscription limits on codex? (in addition to reintroducing the 5h limit?) subscription models suck so bad when they can just change the terms and make the product shittier.

replied to:

I reached the limit also for the first time on the $100. Either that or we’re just using them more.

a kis laptopnak pedig nincs elég memóriája, szóval ezt a főterminált eredetileg programozásra vettem, azt nem tudom már, mit akartam programozni vele, de pont úgy zúg, mint egy adatközpont, és hogyha egy kicsit korszerűsítem, a Gemma 4 LLM éppen visítva el fog tudni futni rajta

and the little laptop doesn't have enough memory, so I originally bought this main terminal for programming, I don't know what I wanted to program with it anymore, but it hums like a data center, and if I upgrade it a little, the Gemma 4 LLM will be able to run on it screaming
