This is true. But at jj ci you’re plonked into an editor and can change the description.

jujutsu is a fresh take on git-- you describe the work you’re about to do with jj new -m 'message'. Do the work. Anything not previously ignored in .gitignore is ready to commit with jj ci. You don’t have to git add anything. No futzing with stashes to switch or refocus work. Need that file back? jj restore FILENAME.

I know people who actively fight me on ISO 8601. They don’t like the way it sorts their files/folders, reliant on whatever behavior the operating system does. Whenever data recovery happens or their files are moved, all the change times are blown out the window and the sorting they expect is blown away.

I’m not yet using a 24-hour clock. But it has me thinking. That’s not such a bad transition for 24-hour local time into UTC. Or just using both. At some point the inconvenience of the local will become vestigial and UTC is what remains.

What if the only enabling factor to getting to Kardashev Type I is adoption of UTC for everything?

Yep, we’re doomed by the Great Filter.

How about two batteries that can be ejected and swapped without powering off the device? We don’t need to wait for super-capacitors today.

iPhones… someday. :)

(making a note for myself.)

While being blurry the background has lots of ships and detail that look “off.” The slant of the building was putting me off until I saw that this picture was coming from the UAE which has some wild architecture.

The page you linked from Highland definitely seals the deal that the Kronos is a real device.

Looks AI generated. Just the kind of thing that would make the opposition paranoid and expend ammo into the sea.

So, did that happen just before the Tiny Desk Thanksgiving talk? I don’t think they ever really explained why he wasn’t using the Resolute Desk for that talk.

Oh that’s awesome. The drop-down arrow “disapeared” with my mental blinders-- I was thinking it was only a toggle for PDFs.

This is a useful take: I too will use LLMs for search-- but not for search for journal articles with data and evidence. LLMs too easily confabulate these.

LLM-as-search is fantastic when you want a no-bullshit statistical result for what you’re looking for when you’re wanting an overview or interactive tutorial.

I have the big SearXNG portal bookmarked ( https://searx.space/ ) but I don’t find that I ever reach for it that often. Not being able to cull lower quality sites is just a little bit of extra toil I’m happy to pay to go away.

Ok, you piqued me: Got a link to a guide on using Kagi for the fediverse?

One of my best monthly expenses. I also appreciate being able to block low-quality domains from my search results.

Oh man, your demo gives me Hudsucker Proxy vibes (“You know, for kids!”). I’m going to have to watch it a couple of times to understand what pnk is doing here. My initial take is pnk is a DSL of bash functions that appear to be composing together Tkinter “primitives.”

An “APL” for UI. Interesting stuff.

StackOverflow initially had an interesting idea of putting metrics on things, and unfortunately humanity’s penchant for “what gets measured is gamed” was amplified and devolved into a hive of HOA Karens looking for infractions of the rules.

I’ll bet that if you “relaunched” a SO-like system and removed all human-visible “points” or “scores” you could achieve a less toxic environment. The only “ranking” is implicit based on your topical subscriptions.

Then again, you could “relaunch” the “relaunch” and “AlphaGo-ify” a bunch of AI agents to compose the dialogs and threads without any human interaction at all. I guess we’re on our way already to building Culture minds.

Absolutely doable.

I’ve switched to paid search with Kagi. Best standard feature is I can tell Kagi to block w3schools, mediumDOTcom and stackoverflow from my search results.

I don’t expect that from a month-old USB drive however. A month old USB drive that write-locks itself is a lemon.
