Does anyone know how this compares to Supacode ( https://supacode.sh )? I just started using Supacode a few days ago and have been enjoying it so far; it is based on libghostty.

I’m in academia and I try to convert everyone I know… I only recently started using it for a few things, and I used Claude to do some pretty advanced stuff that I wouldn’t have ventured to even try with latex. That is, I think a lot of the

What’s my remedy when Google’s product (Gemini 3.1 pro high) makes a “grave” mistake? This is unrelated to the bans that’s been happening recently, but wanted to share … This morning I asked Gemini to “save” its output to a local file. Howe

Love this story too as many others have said. Thanks for sharing this. Maybe someday I will do the same. Luckily our archive of tapes isn’t so large.
