Very cool! Although, the concept, the feeds, the design and everything reminds me of https://www.worldmonitor.app/ - also live and deployed btw, if you want to check out the interface.

This is very interesting because I have been thinking vaguely about a somewhat "opposite" effect. In the sense, talking to LLMs kills my enthusiasm for an idea with other people. Sometimes, I' get excited by an idea, may be e

Not quite there yet but Yunohost is a fantastic attempt to get closer to this ideal. Install the OS - and the basic self-hostic-use-case apps are all just there to click and install. From Immich to Kodi to Wordpress and what not. https:&#x

Probably those SAP, Salesforce ServiceNow folks come somewhat closer? Like the author says - fleet-tracking system, a bus-ticketing platform or IoT platform share some basically similar requirements. And this is what those SAP types offer -

Very interesting... with the marginal cost of basic software dev decreasing but distribution costs remaining high, I have been wondering how that changes software consumption (1). I suppose this is one interesting pattern for that. _1: (exp

There's also some more light CBT-inspired stuff: like reminders when you're stuck, off-screen break suggestions (I consider breaks essential to long term momentum), and automatic summaries showing how far you've come when you

Meanwhile, Google Pay has emerged as the king of UPI payments in India, with annualised transaction value worth $110 billion. Sometimes, so tightly focused US-only news without even recognising it as such amuses me. https://techc

Wow... Would this collection be helpful as a free and curated source of coding blocks to train future LLMs on?

This is indeed fascinating - people not being as passionate about desktop clients than mobile clients. I wonder if it's to do with desktop usage more linked to typing compared to mobile usage pattern framed around clicks /taps...
