This SM is like a subreddit feed, except you also get a personalized feed along with 'hot' and 'latest' for people you follow. Or maybe it's modelled after twitter? Never used it so wouldnt know

Testing this quiet corner of the web. I collect small notes about everyday tools �� file formats, tiny utilities, offline workflows. First post is just a hello; longer notes will follow once I settle in. Plain text feels good after years of heavy editors.

replied to:

Hey that's interesting... I have an interest in plain text markup languages and tools and stuff. Feels like an overlap. :)

replied to:

I’d love to hear also about these workflows. Welcome!

日本語話者はどれくらいいるんだろう。ここで日本語で書き込み続けるのはどうなんだろう

I wonder how many Japanese speakers there are. Is it okay to keep posting in Japanese here?

Hello World

こんにちは。はじめまして。

Hello. Nice to meet you.

ここで日本語で書き込み続けるのはどうなんだろうサイト作成者はさまざまの言語の話者が一緒に話せる場面にしたい気がする

I wonder if it's okay to keep posting in Japanese here. I get the feeling the site creator wants this to be a place where speakers of various languages can talk together.

replied to:

Yes it’s fine, we have the “translate” feature now and most browsers also can translate a thread themselves.

τώρα έχουμε αυτόματες μεταφράσεις!

now we have automatic translations!

Very satisfying taking something that underperforms and slowly pushing it to 60 fps.

Probably because it's very frustrating to be below that.

I dislike using aliases. I prefer fish shell like history search, fzf integration better.

That said, I stumbled upon a function (for zsh) that would expand an alias upon typing space. That's some great middle ground.

I have made this longer than usual, only because I have not had the time to make it shorter ~ Blaise Pascal So, should we all give AI agents more time so they'll write things shorter?

replied to:

no yes🎉👍🤔

replied to:

Too much sound deafens us; too much light dazzles us; too great distance or proximity hinders our view. Too great length and too great brevity of discourse tends to obscurity; too much truth is paralyzing. - Blaise Pascal You reminded me of this other quote, from what I think might be my absolute favourite passage in B.Pascals Pensées, thank you!

Hello! Is anyone else trying local AI? Im dont know what im doing but lately ive been trying "Llama 3,2 3b instruct q5km" on my phone and its been surprisingly good.

Its to replace using central ai for basic tasks like text editing, analysis and brainstorming.

replied to:

If you have Mac, you might check out this app: blaizzy.github.io/nativ/

replied to:

i think the best you can get right now is qwen 3.8 27B. youre gonna need 24 gigs of some fast memory though, i heard theres decent quantizations that can also make it run on 16. im quite excited about open/local models, but theres big investment overhead with the prices right now

replied to:

You might be able to try out colibri, its quite good and the models are a bit better. I am unable to connect any of the cli agents to do things with it though, probably due to context limits, but try it out. OlMoe is the lightest

the more you use ai to create stuff, the less you touch the creativity void inside you

replied to:

on the contrary, at least for me, it unleashes creativity because I don’t have to switch to execution mode (linear thinking), I can keep myself in the creativity mode (lateral thinking).

buit a keyboard driven calendar webapp right now cause im disappointed with all tho other solutions i could find. no dependencies, super customizable, im kind of obsessed. for the first time in my life im actually keeping my calendar alive.

replied to:

Something you’re willing to share in any capacity? I’ve felt like calendar apps are one of the most poorly-solved areas.

replied to:

i actually just shipped it lol: let me know what you think if you set it up! I really like the cursor for navigation.

So, I'm watching two shows right now - Silo and Attack On Titan. I'm nearing the end of S3 on Silo and have just finished S3 of AOT. The parallels between the two are interesting but the contrasts are more interesting, namely how much more intricate AOT is.

Any shows recommendations? I have no idea what is worth watching (since I rarely watch shows) so now I’m watching The Mentalist from 2008. They had flip phones then.
