The way you nonchalantly mentioned your dad died last week caught me off guard -- my condolences!

AI is not great at browser use at the moment and it's also quite inelegant to force it to. It's one thing if it reads your nicely marked down blog, it's another for it to do my groceries order by clicking around a clunky site

Yes, when I said Betamax I was actually referring to Swagger/OpenAPI. It's been around for a while but it didn't catch on the way MCP did. What I'm saying is that the AI hype is making people make that business decision,

I suspect people will get pretty riled up in the comments. This is fine folks. More people will make their stuff machine-accessible and that's a good thing even if MCP won't last or if it's like VHS -- yes Betamax was better,

I came to a similar realisation about world news a few years ago and live a much less stressful life now. Especially since most of the news was about the US, and I don't even live there and there's nothing I can do about it. If so

I currently use Hapi ( https://github.com/tiann/hapi/ ) for this and find it quite handy. I can easily tap into a session on my PC from my phone. Before that I used Happy ( https://happy.engineering/

What.cd were extreme sticklers for quality! When you applied to get in, they did a live interview on IRC to test your knowledge of ripping, transcoding, and different kinds of compression, how torrents and private trackers work, and their c

Does this background process have any neurological backing (literally a part of your brain) or is it more of a mental mode?

I was not aware of this, but this actually supports my point, since the reasons in that study seem to be correlated physical comorbidities, so that makes the claim "autism increases mortality due social isolation" both easier to m

The author may like https://omnara.com/ (no affiliation) instead of SSH-ing from their phone. I have a similar setup with Obsidian and a permanently-on headless Claude Code for my PKM that I can access through the phone app

I haven't dug into all the sources, but I think there's a potential confounder here, or maybe even reverse causality. The author seems to assume causation when the studies only indicate correlation. E.g. the first link says "

The APIs thing: it's not just Chrome, but Chromium too. I first noticed this when trying to replicate some of the screen sharing UI (buttons to share different things) from Google Meet, only to find that no non-Google domains have acce

Not sure how to DM on here, but I just checked your landing and wanted to ask in what ways you're better than clerk.dev?

This is an excellent point. We launched on PH and reached #1 of the day and #1 of the week. We barely got any new customers, but we did get a lot of inbound investor interest. I'd say that if you're fundraising, it's worth it

> different countries manage their public services and institutions. This is the injustice. The decisions made by these institutions are not just. Sometimes they're business decisions (e.g. a university can make more money price gou

For half my life I had an Egyptian passport, and for the other a German passport. Having experienced both sides, that bit of paper is without a doubt the most valuable thing I own. It's hard to quantify the kinds of doors it has opened

My daily driver is Android + Samsung DeX, and I've tried doing this a couple different ways. In the end, the only thing that didn't make me pull me hair out in the long run was proper VSCode (arm64 build) inside termux/Ubuntu

Yup. And I'm my area, you'd have wanted to keep the dust out too. At certain times of the year when it was windy and the power went out and the ceiling fans went with it, you'd have to open the windows to cool down, but live

I don't get it. Why can't bullying exist in the group homeschool at church? It's functionally equivalent to a school. Are you making a brand new point about traditional homeschooling (parent-child) or replying to the OP in th

While we're discussing alternatives, does anyone know any for specifically Stripe Connect? E.g. for a marketplace app.

Not realistic (for me) the way the advisor relationship is portrayed, and not enough academic politics. I wrote about my own experiences here https://yousefamar.com/memo/notes/my/views/phds/
