And moonscript, which does a decent job as well

We vibe code everything in flavor of the month node frameworks, tyvm, because elixir is too hard to hire for (or some equally inane excuse)

I look forward to the eventual launch of a new and improved version of your app using electron.

What’s the point in having 64 Gb of DDR5 and 16 cores @ 4.2 GHz if not to be able to have a couple electron apps sitting at idle yet somehow still using the equivalent computational resources of the most powerful supercomputer on earth in the mid 1990s.


We also plan to incorporate a full local llm, to ensure we fill the memory up. It will be used to direct people to our online knowledge base, which will always be empty

Make sure another LLM summarizes pages upon loading, but doesn’t load any content before that completes. Each page should have a few megs of JS tracking scripts siphoning the users CPU to create massive logs on AWS that nobody will ever use to improve anything.

Oh and put everything behind the strictest cloudflare settings you can, so that even a whiff of anything that’s not a Windows 11 laptop or iPhone on a major U.S. network residential or mobile IP gets non-stop bot checks!


I agree with your post conceptually.

However: Don’t underestimate community support (in the areas you’re likely to want it) when comparing development stacks.


Conversely, a community means nothing if they flit from one "best practice" to another

It's become a bit of a shibboleth to have js disabled, and brag loudly about how that breaks much of the Internet. It's a weird form of nerd signaling

Rms?

I've been beating this drum for years. The problem with signal and most other privacy ware is that they require you to effectively deanonymize yourself, typically by making you use a phone number to use their service. Knowing who someone is talking to is, in many circumstances, far worse than knowing what they're saying

How?

I go to court for knowing a drug dealer. That case goes nowhere.

I go to court for buying from a drug dealer. That's open and shut.

I'm not a CEO of a trillion dollar corporation or the president of anything. My privacy needs are far different from theirs.


It's why I'm so excited about Nostr, and apps built on top of it, like 0xchat: https://www.0xchat.com/

Two sitting US presidents have used the intelligence apparatus to spy on political opponents. One was impeached over it

And tangled.sh supports JJ stacks out of the box

Woah that's actually huge. I've been very interested in tangled from an atproto perspective but I had no idea it had that as well. Wonder why that isn't talked about more. Seems like an amazing feature to potentially pull some people away from GitHub/GitLab after they've have been asking for years for a better stacking workflow.

I've been going through a lot of different git stacking tools recently and am currently quite liking git-branchless[1] with GitHub and mergify[2] for the merge queue, but it all definitely feels quite rough around the edges without first-party support. Especially when it comes to collaboration.

Jujutsu has also always just seemed a bit daunting to me, but this might be the push I needed to finally give both jj and tangled a proper try and likely move stuff over.

Do it. It's absolutely worth it. You can pick it up in 30 minutes and have full proficiency in an afternoon

Our amazing journey...

Same here.

Switched to a Boox, installed koreader, set up sync thing. It's insane how much better a reading experience this is
