Writing. I want to do it, very badly. I just don't want to be bad at it. You have to be bad at it in order to get good at it. But... Catch 22 isn't it?

replied to:

I think reading helps quite a bit, especially writing about what you’ve read, even to yourself, just so you can go through the process of having to explain something that you’re only recently familiar with. There’s something about that process that seems to be helpful, at least to me.

replied to:

Same. The way I consume information influences how I think. Short form content makes my thinking fragmented without a clear structure. I feel that fragmented thinking won't lead to convincing writing. And I'm trying to regain some of that lost control.

replied to:

Very interesting! I think something along those lines might be happening for me too. Another aspect, always cooking in the back of my mind, "if you can't explain it well, don't explain it at all."

replied to:

The fear of being bad at it is the only thing holding you back. I experienced something like that with playing music with others. Perhaps you could learn to lay down your critical brain during the creation process and that good/bad isn't a useful distinction until later when you're editing your work.

replied to:

Yeah, this is pretty much what I can't do. My critical brain has a lot of power. It's very evolved at this point :/

még csak barátkozom azzal a gondolattal, hogy a Gemma 4 miatt először is Windows 11 lesz a gépen (meg hogy Szentmihályon presszó lesz), ezért nehéz elkezdeni

I'm still getting used to the idea that because of Gemma 4, I'll have Windows 11 on my computer first (and that there will be a presso in Szentmihály), so it's hard to get started.

I work with c# and distributed systems. Anyone with experience in that domain?

我在中国是一个准脱离政府掌控者，基于身份的一切活动我都不参与，比如正式工作和网购。我也为此付出巨大代价，我的选择空间被极大压缩，行动能力损失严重。我只能通过少量免费wifi访问互联网

In China, I am practically independent of the government; I don't participate in any activities based on my status, such as formal work or online shopping. I've paid a heavy price for this; my choices have been severely limited, and my mobility has been significantly impaired. I can only access the internet through limited free Wi-Fi.

been building a voice first os using jev and some small voice models. I'm surprised how well it's working and I'm very close to the point where I can go into a feedback mode and tell it what behavior I want changed, it will spin up Claude or codex inside itself and setup the build to restart itself and continue with new code. tempted to let it build itself completely

replied to:

It sounds amazing! A voice first OS was also in my mind. Curious to hear more!

Asked Claude to implement a game based on a text quest book I played in 90s. Let’s see. Tried to play the original text, downloaded epub. Well, I died after 3 minutes in the game.

Bad people are working together to enrich themselves and slave others into rat races. Good people need to start working together too.

replied to:

Good people are always more, if more affraid of things. Bad people, unfortunately, is more willing to make harm, hence why they keep the upper hand. To support eachother is the minimum we need to move forward, and so long this doesn't happen things will remain the same. A revolution, as they say, doesn't happen with a single person, we need the mayority to join.

replied to:

"we need the majority to join" - this is a very interesting point; actually we only need 3,5% 👌 Erica Chenoweth from Harvard found this from their research with Maria J. Stephan, and wrote the book "Why Civil Resistance Works". They also found that nonviolent resistance is more often successful than the violent ones. Very interesting stuff.

The best Mcp server I have as Claude Connector is Emacs running on my Homeserver. It has one tool - eval-elisp. Using it Claude can do almost anything. My top 1 pinned chat is “Run agent-start-claude-code using HotterEmacs in dir …” - after that I have a ready to use remote-controlled session running on my homeserver.

I laughed at this. I'm all for people crafting their own tools, but it really feels like everyone's reinventing the same handful of wheels for agentic development.

In terms of where I invest my time, I'm trying to find ways to zig while everyone's myopically zagging.

az interneten nem lehet egy képet sem átméretezni, sem Windows alatt, a Grok is csak hozzávetőlegesen dolgozik, mi következik ebből, muszáj lesz beengedni Gemmát, mintha Linus Thorvalds a napokban panaszkodott volna, hogy a Linuxot is elárasztotta az ai

You can't resize an image on the internet, not even under Windows, Grok only works roughly, what follows from this, we'll have to let Gemma in, as if Linus Thorvalds had complained the other day that Linux was also flooded with AI
