Agreed ... I'm not talking about the implementation but rather the idea that this research is novel.

This is almost a year behind Steve Yegge's first post on beads. Gas Town and Gas City provide orchestration for the swarm. So far I haven't seen a perfect implementation but this idea isn't new.

I think I've had this on duckduckgo for several months

You make this corner of the world better dang!

For real concentration I can't have lyrics but that's a great idea for other flow states. Mozart and Brahms are good for me ... Not slow enough to put me to sleep not fast enough or unusual to make me pay attention to the music.

If this site actually provided privacy-preserving recommendations, there are many of us in the U.S. who would (or should?) also be interested in these services. Sadly, this is SPAM.

"At the time, MySQL existed ..."

You had to be careful with MySQL back then as constraints were syntactic sugar but not enforced. PostgreSQL was indeed much tougher to manage but more full-featured.

Too late ...

That is very close to a half-length shipping container.

HN as a tabloid ... After all enquiring minds want to know!

I was part of Omaze and can definitely empathize with the amount of work charitable fund raising takes and the amount of heartache that come from seeing under needs. Thanks for your hard work!

Great article and it really takes me back to my past! I was fortunate enough to always have a VM700 or equivalent to assess the quality of my modulators but one low channel isn't it of reach. One quibble with:

After realizing that broadcast television uses negative modulation ...

NTSC is actually vestigial side-band so while it's easy to notice the modulation below the carrier, the low frequencies which include the sync information are also present above the carrier with the effect of having twice the modulated power.

Here's the one I use a lot ... And the underlying `glamour` library is great for programmatic markdown display: https://github.com/charmbracelet/glow.

Look at ERC-8004

My agents gave to run pre-commit before calling a coding tag done. In this case, it's just a robust set of checks.

I designed a security dongle a long time ago ... Used properly, it did rotations and XORs like a CRC. You could definitely make it hard to defeat but it was still ultimately deterministic.

When I was in high school, we were not allowed to use calculator for most science classes ... And certainly not for math class. I'm ten years, will you want to hire a student who is coming out of college without considerable experience and practice with AI?

This is a pretty clear emergent pattern. An OSS alternative is https://github.com/Dicklesworthstone/mcp_agent_mail.

You can also install and run Zoom in FlatPak which secures your computer by running the executable in BubbleWrap. If you know what you're doing, you can also sandbox it directly.

When Zoom took the world by storm due to the pandemic, they're security was known to be horrible. They aquihired the keybase team who are crypto experts and this presumably had some measure of positive effect.

I agree that this probably isn't in their own interests but "because I refuse to do business with a company that takes its customers for granted" should be heavily qualified. My power company is taking advantage of me but so far I haven't had the nerve to fire them.

I wish a couple of those paragraphs were on the home page!

Why would I move to GhosTTY versus the terminal emulator that comes with my OS as it's not clear to me from the documentation?

I didn't realize that KDE was now considered to be "lightweight". I left after installing KDE 4 as my relatively new computer slowed to a crawl. This was a bit sad because I like the Qt widget system and was writing apps for my Sharp Zaurus.

I have quite a few machines that were constructed using Ansible ... When I get a chance, I'll reverse then and compare the results to the IaC that created them

Funny ... I have a 50-line bash script that does this but it also runs each agent in a sandbox so the agents can't write to disk outside their designated got worktree. I'm happy to skip the TS+NodeJS but will admit my version might not be as portable.

Just reread Accelerando ... Still awesome.

Sounds pretty deadly!

Kafka is fast ... And MongoDB is web scale [0]. I completely agree that we shouldn't go chasing each new technical bauble but we are also wasting breath on those that do.

There's an Ethereum ERC that sounds like almost the same thing: https://eips.ethereum.org/EIPS/eip-8004
