I'll start wrapping my phone in tin foil btw

The title of the submission makes it seem like this is a blog post or someone introducing themselves, instead, it looks like a 100% vibecoded thingy

I can do that, and i notice that i kinda stop thinking about the reading and put more "brain resources" into the independent train of thought. Then i realize i was reading all the time without putting any effort in it

The commenter may be overestimating the first one, but i do think LLM providers are evil

World's first self-landing rocket

The Buran, a soviet spaceplane very similar to the space shuttle, landed autonomously

Hello! It looks nice. Btw, i found a typo in your website. Near the footer:

"Programms that make your computer go silent. Our goal is to design developer tools that everyone can run anywhere."

"Programms" should be "Programs", with a single "M"

It looks like a nice toy, just something fun. I don't think that someone would pay for this tough.

In my opinion, there's no such thing as "learning how to use LLMs" You interact with those tools using natural language, and normal people learn how to use natural language when they're 2 or 3, and master it as they grow.

I tought it was about to say "Canada's independent AI chatbot". Seeing that it is instead an old-fashioned search engine made me smile.

I see, this experiment is a fun thing to do. My comment wasn't concerned much on why we do this, but rather on the fact that many people are starting to see LLMs as genuine entities, and i really don't think they are (also, i feed bad about using the word "genuine" after it has been abused so badly)

My cats do that as well! Since they dig into the sand to hide their smell, i think they do that to check whether they can smell some more and need to put some more sand on top

I think many people have. That is, in my opinion, because of all the anthropomizing (sorry for typos!) language used. The companies building these systems keep calling their newest features after human processes, for example "Dreaming", "Thinking", and the fact that they make their models talk in first person

Wait, I noticed a pattern in my previous responses: I had some weird typos/letter additions ('sgreat', 'askinsg'). Actually, wait — did I do that on purpose or was it a glitch?

A person who has no idea what an LLM is would likely fall into this "trap"

The result was that dogs weren't interested in their unmodified scent in "raw" form, but the modified version was by far the most interesting thing in the room. They spent more time investigating it than any other stimulus in the experiment.

I know very well that this is kind of off-topic, and just like the author, i do not claim to know wether dogs (or any other non-human animal for that matter) is self-aware, and again, just like the author, i do think that the question cannot be answered. Either way, the modified version of their scent seemed more interesting to the dogs, maybe it's because they smell their own scent all the time. The single fact that their modified scent is more interesting to them does not mean they are self-aware, perhaps they are just trying something new.

This post is nice: the writer first explains a problem, using a simple example. In the next section, they reflect a bit about the problem, and then they casually mention two tools they built. In my opinion, this is amazing: you sponsor you project, while also making the problem it solves clear: use their tool to test how portable your code is

I really love this site, it is obivous that the owner puts a lot of effort into this

If a 15 years old can do so (me) then other people can do so as well. I did not feel uncomfortable at all when i first installed ElementaryOS and then moved to Fedora. everything just works, i never ever had to worry about drivers or stuff like that

It's not true that any app can get total control of your system. If you install them via flatpak, the apps are sandboxed. Also, unless you log in as root, the apps can't do much. Wonder why the most important systems in the world and big tech's servers run GNU/Linux? There's a reason

I dont wanna start a war over this btw, even though it may not seem :)

This is what happens when you run an OS controlled by some random big corporation. I dont mean that it's the person's fault, but just that you should not rely on Apple. they allow you to use your computer, but on their terms.

Install some GNU/Linux distro and you can do whatever you want.

Does that mean I now have to deliver? Well, if you'd like to, you're free to do so! If not, somebody else could do it. You're not your audience's slave

I know it was intended as a joke but still..

"Illustrated tear-downs and break-downs of everyday products, like mechanical pencils, lighters and pez dispensers, that you may have taken for granted. Drawn by Bryan Macomber, a mechanical engineer and artist."

The description above comes from the following post on mastodon: https://merveilles.town/@rek/116658587354593919

I believe it flopped because people simply dont want this kind of device. Maybe because it's seen as recreational (I'd never accept to try to do any work on it) and also because of the high cost. Most people are ok with just a phone.

America is a continent. Maybe you were referring to the US

If that's the case, so be it.

They made a blog post about it [0]. I haven't read it yet, but it might answer your question.

You can turn off they AI if you want

Since your company is basically based on this agentic coding thing, i really don't see why anybody would run Warp without AI. Why not use a normal terminal then? Oh yeah, to waste space on disk and to use more RAM: we have plenty

Donating to the free software you use, even a little, is good.

Not sustainable for normal people, let alone people

I hope you are aware of the fact a business makes way more money than a "normal" person?

This is what AI companies do. They steal stuff and then do not give credit to anyone, not even a "thank you". If doing so was needed to get money, that's what they'd have done. Anyways, i was very surprised to see they chose my favorite free software license -- the AGPLv3

Nice, from my understanding, it's supposed to sell digital goods, but can't people just see the url by analizing the HTML with the built-in browser feature?
