I'm not sure why reading and writing the registry is considered a bad interface for programmatic system administration. I realize text files can be processed by utilities for working with text files. And text files can be read by human

Maybe this will result in a well-defined API for government. If I really squint my eyes and dream I see a government with event-sourced, auditable and reproducible architecture.

I love this. I see this vision, in many forms, yet have trouble articulating in a way that motivates and inspires others, including myself. I don't think a lack of hardware and software technology is what is lacking, but rather a visio

I love that this has been in development for so long. It's a breath of fresh air in this manic vibe coding era, and a reminder to me that I can slow down.

Do you recommend reading "Gödel, Escher, Bach: an Eternal Golden Braid"?

Hmm so you don't see any value? I was thinking if you used the identical old hardware, you'd get something close enough. Personally I prefer to watch analog with an all analog signal chain, but am still curious what would happen i

I'd love to walk around with a Hi8 camera and 4K camera with a rig to record identical frames, and get a few hundred hours if footage and train a model to do intelligent upscaling and cleanup of old footage. Possibly a 3D printed rig w

I think maybe there is a "frontier living" fantasy that is resting on the hidden assumption that you can bring your modern tech stack with you, minus the civilization that it relies on. If I squint my eyes and imagine really hard,

It always intuitively felt to me like there was enough space, but I am now getting the sense that my intuition here has been wrong. Will you define "frontier living" so I can better see the lack of space ?

I also completely agree. My "try harder" was with regard to doing exactly what I had just had an emotional reaction to and criticized.

by manofmanysmiles 6mo ago
I agree with the pragmatism. I think pragmatically yes, it is my responsibility. In a very real sense, I am able to respond, being aware of the emotions, even if perhaps the person I am speaking to is not. I guess I have a hard time viewing

Are you implying other people's emotional immaturity is exclusively my problem to solve? Also when you state an absolute like the word of God, how do you expect it to be received? The article seems to imply to me: form relationships wh

I read recently that there is an effective cartel of Samsung, SK Hynix and Micron. Price collusion, and dumping (flooding market with low prices) if any real competitor shows up. Someone please correct me if I'm wrong.

Okay, I think I see what you're saying. Each individual point stands on its own. It's their relevance to each other and an overarching theme I am not seeing made explicit. The through line I am seeing here is that: 1) The people i

Hot take: It's time for something like Java/Web Aassembly to come back, built into the OS. JIT and AoT translation like Rosetta can make it almost native. Trimming out the middle of the stack will make it in practice be faster tha
