I've been thinking about autonomous/agentic systems from an operating systems perspective rather than a model or framework perspective.

This is an attempt to sketch what an autonomy kernel might look like and where its boundaries should be.

Where would you draw the kernel boundary?

Thanks, I think I can relate.

For me, the camera gets more important as I get older. I realise that, althougth I'm not into photography either, it's very easy to capture day-to-day memories.

However, I'm one of those people who would never buy a dedicated camera. I'm just not into it that much.

I'm courious to see if the hardware would be OK. If so, how much more can we get by writing good software. After all, there's only so much we can improve with hardware until it becomes irrelevant!?

I guess it's a vicious cycle with open / linux-based. Although not impossible, it's difficult to get good grade apps with slow capital. E.g. It seems to me that the appstore is one of the main arguments for choosing iPhones.

SwitchCenter aims to improve the experience of managing your opened apps/windows on macOS.

With this, you can display your opened windows grouped in columns (by application). You can also also display the minimized windows in the same column as the opened windows and allows you to pin applications so they always display in the same order. On top of that, it allows for (arguably) better windows control (close, minimize, full-screen, Zoom In / Out, etc.).

It started as an experiment because I was looking for a cleaner, more organized way to arrange the (many) opened windows.

I'm thinking of adding browser tabs somewhere in there (maybe).

Good idea. I'll make a video and upload it to the page.

Unfortunately, the first version will not support spaces. I tried to add that functionality as part of the MVP but as it turns out, working with OSX's private functions for spaces is not straightforward. However, I do appreciate that you (and probably other people too) use spaces, so I'll add it in at some point in the near future.
