That's clever insight. If it was lisp from the beginning, maybe would be more straightforward. It's as simple as code can get, according to Uncle Bob, while still being expressive. It's no wonder Emacs still reigns supreme. Well, I am happy with Niri's kdl approach for the time being.

Excellent work, paired with the 500kb TTS model headlining today I can see the full stack coming together.

Thanks for mentioning that. I also wanted to use API only and with the cache hit rates I'm getting with Reasonix/whale harness on deepseek, it's going to be a difficult adjustment moving away from practically free.

I see it attracting more people than it dissuades. You can use jj as just a prefix for Git commands like jj git init. Yet you get supercharged repo navigation abilities. If obscelecene is your concern, jujutsu is VCS agnostic and doesn't have to use Git in the future.

Nix is as simple as it gets, even better than docker. Just 'nix run' whatever flake file someone gives you and everything works magically.

This codeforge going away can't happen for me because I self-host it.

Yes, separation between git storage and identity. Very simple to use your own Knot instead of the default knot1, just enter your own website link to it. Not as beholden to Github downtimes that are out of your hands.

I was using Codeberg this morning, now I'm on Tangled. All I had to do was switch remote origin.

Now there's Jank too, the first time a Lisp dialect has reached into native world since Clasp. The way it interops Clojure with the LLVM is unprecedented.
