   I like this example. A lot of people would prefer to use PowerPoint because they can still use their files and templates they made last year even if Microsoft doubles the price of Powerpoint, removes features, discontinues the product, or g

   That was the first such car. Even though the automatic transmission was invented a long time ago, new cars are still made with manual ones

    This markdown mirror is a partial solution to a problem that does not exist in "normal" Logseq (what's being rebranded to Logseq OG). The markdown files ARE the data (which syncs beautifully over Dropbox and the like.)

    I am a Logseq user and I was under the impression that development had stalled or better, stabilized (frankly, most software does NOT need a constant stream of updates). Based on this post, it looks like they're back - and they've

    Code is not spec. There is an implementation spectrum. On one end, you have code that can perform only the behaviour explicitly declared in the spec, but has to be thrown away and rewritten for any new or updated spec. On the other end, you

    Sounds like a good system. To use the analogy from ths other comment, this would be like running an image through JPEG compression twice. The issue happens then if you're updating the individual research files on a regular basis. (Or m

    I do remember early SourceForge. It remember it as very clean, simple and reliable, and popular.

    you already could! just install Termux, npm install your favourite agent harness (pi for one has explicit Termux support, but its AGENTS.md works just fine with Claude Code for example - https://github.com/badlogic/pi-m

    Hypothesis: it's a sprawling, labyrinthine mess because it was grown at high speed using Claude Code.

    Partway through, I recognized the function calling syntax as similar to Nix which I just started learning. Turns out the implementation of the article is in Haskell, another declarative language. At work. we use Power Query with it's M

    I find that the default Claude Code harness deals with the ambiguity best right now with the questionnaire system. So you can pose the core of the problem first and then specify only those implementation details that matter.
