You’d be surprised to know this works even without the tools, with just the context window as a persistence layer. I did a POC for this in July - https://www.ohad.com/2025/07/10/voidware/

In the context of LLMs memory can often mean a broadly defined, application-specific ability to detect, retain and re-use bits of useful context along the journey. In contrast to Persistence which is more like a DB with a schema and clear e

Totally agree. Persistence is a huge part of what we usually mean by state. Nothing stops this from plugging into a real database when needed. But also, nothing stops us from rethinking what a database even is, especially in a world where L

good question. I think it'll be self-reinforcing, since the context keeps growing with everything the software has done for you, along with every interaction you’ve ever had with it.

Speaking of the AirPods becoming actual hearing aides - how will we reconcile the fact that it is not socially acceptable to wear AirPods when speaking with someone? Even if you get to explain ‘oh my AirPods are functioning as a hearing aid

In 1998 Assembly programmers who typically participated in Demo competitions did a series of size coding challenges. The first one was a Snake game (Nibbles), all in a DOS environment. The winning entry was 48 bytes long. https://

Fantastic, thank you for implementing one of my future side projects. I was planning to build a web-based version of Soulver with sharing/collaboration. I hope this can fill that spot for me.

One thing I couldn’t figure out by skimming through the article is who performs the actual authentication (checking if an item is counterfeit)? Is it the two founders? Do they have a team working on this?

Phrasing can always be better but the point is that there's a way to map your DNS to Netlify which is risky and Netlify hasn't made the aggressive decision of blocking it. They outline in their docs all the reasons why you shouldn

Thanks, founder of Stackbit here. We currently support NextJS, Gatsby, Hugo and Jekyll with many more coming soon (e.g. Eleventy). One of our goals is being tech agnostic as we want to empower developers to pick the best tool for the job.

Great - One thing Meeter does which is great (they are a commercial app that does something similar) is popup a notification with a 'join' button 2 minutes or so before the meeting starts. That reduces the interaction to one click

I’ve thought about this concept a bunch and I think there are real commercial opportunities there. Namely I don’t want to pay Dropbox a markup over S3 and develop a dependency on them. What I prefer is to purchase the software from Dropbox

Another way to achieve this is to avoid the native apps for Twitter/FB/etc and just use the mobile websites. No access to camera/photos/contacts/location/etc.

I too had the fortunate experience of picking up his Assembly book around the same age and it was indeed a magical experience. I got into real time computer graphics programming (the demoscene) thereafter thanks mostly to the Assembly.

Hey, Stackbit founder here. Creating websites with Stackbit is and will continue being free. It has a low cost of operation for us and we find its an attractive way for people to experiment with static sites / the JAMstack.
