Hard to disagree based on what I just experienced.

This morning I got some new earbuds. The booklet that came with the earbuds includes no written instructions. Only a short series of pictures to show you how to pair and use them. There is also a QR code to a video.

The pictures were clear and simple to follow. I must admit it was nice not to need to use my reading glasses. I’m not sure how cooked we are though. Mass literacy is a pretty recent development for human society after all.

post literate society gets closer everyday

Making Spinach and Broccoli soup for lunch and fantasizing about cleaning and redoing my desk after ;)

Its a benefit to use something external when a new browser comes out that you want to use instead of FF or if you need some passwords on a device that has no FF. Loosely coupled solutions generally have more flexibility.

Last week for me. I burned a FreeDOS 1.4 CD to install it on my recently acquired Pentium 4 desktop.

Good morning!

I just started a batch of chili in my slow cooker for dinner tonight. I can’t wait to eat it…

How do you explain this tradeoff to users in a way that feels honest and understandable, without sounding like you are making excuses for Electron?

To people who dislike Electron due to its size, I don’t think you can. To someone with that mindset, saying “we are seeing something like 50–60 MB for the actual usage” itself sounds disingenuous.

However most people don’t seem to care that much about the size of Electron. Most people I know expect a modern system to have enough ram for it to not matter.

Two of our secrets of 19 years together and counting are having two comforters on the bed and each a pair of sleep earbuds which double as ear plugs because 100% that is what one of us is listening to.

what does this have to do with selfhosting?

No, absolutely not

very cool! i may need to dust off an old copy of forte agent…

I do have an agenda, which is to try to understand…

If your goal is to understand why people feel the way they do then why are you arguing with people and attempting to refute their responses instead of thoughtfully reflecting their concerns back to them to confirm if you have understood?

Reading through this thread and your responses gives the strong impression that you just want to argue while at the same time aren’t very well informed on the matter. Where you do respond its mostly whataboutism rather than actually addressing the comment you are responding to.

Your post asks “Why do people hate AI?” and then goes on to validates many of the commonly heard reasons people have for hating AI. You end with a suggestion that if we could develop AI into something else in the future, it might be good.

So it seems you already understand why people hate AI and are promoting an agenda rather than asking a genuine question.

just ask yourself: do you really think the chucklefucks of tech have got coding figured out?

Someday someone will write something nice about FreeBSD without feeling the need to denigrate linux. I like and respect the BSDs. I’ve used them personally and professionally. But people, its been 20+ years and its time to let this crazy one sided rivalry go.

About 10 years ago there were several apps like that: Whisper, Secret, Yik Yak, etc. All faced controversy and went out of business. Today you have Hush.

Both look delicious!
