In the age of unlimited and very fast content production (for any media, code, images, music, text, or otherwise), I think content curation like this may be more desired than ever.

Maybe I'm too optimistic, but personally it would lower the burden on me so much to have a curated list of *awesome* projects.

The fact that another person has taken from their time, so the hundreds or thousands of people reading this list don't have to do the same amount of investigation to figure out if a project is truly awesome, is in itself awesome.

Honestly you don't need ConEmu (the terminal emulator part of cmder) anymore with the new Windows Terminal

All Zachtronics games

Really interesting. This makes me wonder if it would cost less to have human answers for like 90% of every-day AI requests.

This is assuming people even read the code.

I hope this practice doesn't die out, or complexity will skyrocket for no reason.

Personally, I can't stand default LLM writing. I found out about this skill https://github.com/ayghri/i-have-adhd That I actually copy-pasted into the default instructions for Claude.

It's night and day, I wouldn't have been able to use it if it wrote in its default style.

It can be a bit weird because when it outputs a list it asks you to report on the first item (and usually it's stuff so small I do all the steps before writing to it again).

But it's so much clearer !

I only saw pangram being mentioned on HN. How good is it in general ? And what do they use to check if a text is AI Generated, the text watermarks from big models ?

Sorry, I didn't directly assume you were a bot, I'm not at this stage of disbelief (yet).

I just wanted to make a small joke response, because obviously you pointed out a real issue with the README that the human who prompted it would have also flagged if they had read it.

> it feels absurd and a bit dystopian that I’m even having to type this comment and defend my humanity

There's also a lot of bot spam on HN, so green usernames make people suspicious, but I agree...

If only the author of the project used this LLM to improve their README. It correctly detected an obnoxious issue !

That's an LLM README for you. They probably used the sentence "without electron" during development in some prompt and it ended up there

Honestly I have trouble understanding how it's different than Wine.

I really like ATProto as an interoperable protocol for social applications !

ATProto is the right protocol for the social elements imo

I found this website to play with it, it's very well made !

Have you heard of Shakespeare ?

Actually, I wonder if an LLM would be able to make working code of it, or if it would confuse itself and try to predict the story.

I can picture this esolang. Someone should make it. (It should be hard to make it with Claude though)

Oh I didn't know about this thing, thanks for the discovery.

When reading the start if your comment describing libghostty, I was thinking: "Surely an example of a cross-platform software that could use such a thing is IntelliJ"

And right afterwards you write that not only it is the case, but the change is very recent !

And the officially maintained website (that only tracks the final law changes instead of the whole process): https://www.legifrance.gouv.fr/

I wanted to replace VCR OSD Mono for my Hyprland rice because it doesn't support a lot of accented characters, this is perfect ! I can even put it in the terminal !

In many cases like this it's requirements from the prompt that are leaking trough. It's usually stuff that matters for the model itself writing the text/code, but are irrelevant to the end user and add noise

I am currently teaching programming to my cousin, which is 13.

She was interested in Python and now in Godot, even though she knew how to use ChatGPT and all, she still wants to work towards the challenged by herself, using AI as a guide.

This makes me think that at least for the next generation, understanding will still be valued. Even though I am still questioning it that will be the case in the long run

> Yeah fuck that and fuck them for suggesting it. Do they even understand what running linux means?

Why ? These are features that are built into linux. Source code you can audit.

Having a "signed gaming kernel" doesn't mean you are running arbitrary kernel level code. You'll always have the source code and can check it matches what you run.

That's why they require the other features (tmp2.0, secure boot, signed kernel)

As long as its the linux kernel, they will always publish the source code as well, so I am fine with running a "gaming kernel" that is distributed as a signed binary but that I can compile myself and well to check that it matches.

Honestly, since in the end your signed kernel is open source anyways, I don't mind.

While this is of course very bad, I am happy to see for once something which everyone works together to fix and understand in the bugzilla thread.

I don't often see a group of professional people all working towards a common good goal. (Which here is simply to revoke the certs from everywhere and make sure everyone has the information, but it still makes me happy)

I don't know if that's related, but I couldn't access YouTube, and Google takes ages to load.

But using a VPN to the US for example it works very quickly.

Revolut is also unavailable apparently

I would mind a lot less being forced to use an open source signed kernel than being forced to use windows with proprietary kernel-level anticheat drivers.

Honestly, I would have thought valve would be the company leading the anticheat for linux thing.
