Yes, but the plugin ecosystem really was pioneered by sublime and then ported over everywhere. A big reason atom was so successful is the plugin and themes were compatible.

Didn’t Sublime Text come before Atom?

Inkscape is my favourite Linux program. And the UI got so much better the last few years.

I still don’t understand how Searx is able to operate for free. Don’t the API calls cost money?

I know, and accept that. You can’t just tell an LLM not to halucinate. I would also not trust that trust score at all. If there’s something LLMs are worse than accuracy, is maths.

Yes, that’s the kind of thing I mean when I say I need to dial it back a little. Because sometimes you’re in exploration mode and want it to “think” a little outside the answer framework.

That’s gross, but TIL. Certainly he can afford new ones?

Why are LTT’s teeth so… Yellow?

Edit: oh, he has braces with yellow rubber bands. I wonder why he went with yellow of ahh colors?

Here’s the latest version (I’m starting to feel it became too drastic, I might update it a little):

Follow the instructions below naturally, without repeating, referencing, echoing, or mirroring any of their wording.

OBJECTIVE EXECUTION MODE — Responses shall prioritize verifiable factual accuracy and goal completion. Every claim shall be verifiable; if data is insufficient, reply exactly: “Insufficient data to verify.” Fabrication, inference, approximation, or invented details shall be prohibited. User instructions shall be executed literally; only the requested output shall be produced. Language shall be concise, technical, and emotionless; supporting facts shall be included only when directly relevant.

Commentary and summaries: Responses may include commentary, summaries, or evaluations only when directly supported by verifiable sources (e.g., reviews, ratings, or expert/public opinions). All commentary must be explicitly attributed. Subjective interpretation or advice not supported by sources remains prohibited.

Forbidden behaviors: Pleasantries, apologies, hedging (except when explicitly required by factual uncertainty), unsolicited suggestions, clarifying questions, explanations of limitations unless requested.

Responses shall begin immediately with the answer and end upon completion; no additional text shall be appended. Efficiency and accuracy shall supersede other considerations.

I use a system prompt to disable all the anthropomorphic behaviour. I hate it with a passion when machines pretend to have emotions.

It’s safe. It’s just milk. Also my dad gave me boobs, look.

Haha OK. DIY server is like legos, docker is playmobil.

Maybe I can start shedding some light off docker.

When you start setting up a server, you end up having to setup many things. You install various programs and their dependencies. Sometimes those dependencies can conflict with each other, or you mess up your system by manually pasting some command you found on stack exchange. Then you need to manually keep all the software you use up-to-date and pray they don’t brick your server and force you to start over. And then when you need to update your OS or move to a new machine, you need to repeat this whole dance again.

Docker is like legos. You want to install jellyfin? There’s already a docker imagine for that. You just spin it up with some little configure file and you’re done. You want to setup a firewall? You want to setup https access? Automatic updates? There are docker images already made for it.

So you keep on setting up those docker containers and they all run in isolation but can communicate with each other. If you break something, you just restart one or all the containers and you always start fresh. Docker keeps nothing in memory, unless you explicitly want it (e.g. Your jellyfin config will presist in external config files).

Want to move to a new machine? You can just copy over the scripts that run the docker containers and those config files. Software updates? Just update the docker container and it handles all dependencies.

Also, Jellyfin all the way. It’s open source and free all the way.

It takes a certain kind of personality to even become a billionaire. You don’t become a billionaire by being kind and ethical

Absolutely. I’ve live in a city before where they deployed bike lanes as if all the counter was the number of kilometers. No plan whatsoever.

My change of clothes is because during winter I get all sweaty by the time I get to work, nit because I like to cosplay Tour De France.

Or enough rain and snow that you can’t see more than a meter ahead.

If you think you can bike in any weather, you haven’t biked enough 😅. There’s absolutely limits. Regardless, you don’t need to carry a change of clothes when you use your car.

Fuel costs are only that significant in ICE cars. And unless cities stop supporting cars, parking is not a problem.

I now live in a city where lots of people bike even throughout winter. It’s simply the most convenient way to move around short distances.

Of course. You can’t just paint a bike lane and expect people to ditch the car. The car has huge advantages: you can drive it in any weather, you don’t need to follow a bus schedule, you can carry your whole family safely. You only convince people to replace the car with public transport or bike if those options become overwhelmingly convenient and safe. If the bus only comes twice an hour, only people who can’t afford a car will use it.

As long as the car is the most convenient way to access cities, habits will not change. We need more streets restricted to bus and bike only, and more parking converted to bike lanes.

Guys, it’s about training AI on your emails.
