fmoronzirfas··on Show HN: ThoughtDAG – An editable context graph for LLM conversations
I vibe coded/sketched a similar idea for the obsidian canvas. https://github.com/ff6347/obsidian-canvas-context it is more a research artifact then a real product/tool.

I think I gave up at some point because it does not integrate with my agent workflow. I also try to keep my second brain free of AI generated text.

But it was a nice experiment. The biggest barrier is for me that it happens in a different space than the agents I run and it does not scratch an urgent itch. I think a bidirectional integration is crucial.

I've built something similar. I use it together with Firefox container tabs for quick notes. It saves to local storage. https://notes.inpyjamas.dev/ Source https://github.com/ff6347/notepad
fmoronzirfas··on LunarVim
I’m one of these newbies, who want to learn vim but already have experience with other IDEs. Having a project with sensible defaults like lvim is a great starting point for me. I just can’t go through learning/configuring everything from scratch in my daily business. With lvim I already have the features I depend on in other IDEs ready to go. So I “only” need to learn vim core editing syntax.

Reading the help does not help all the time when starting from scratch even more for non native English speakers

fmoronzirfas··on What happened in creative coding in the last five years?
The Wikipedia article is a okayish description https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Creative_coding . I guess if I had to describe it as short as possible I would say: using code to create art. Some good examples are the works of Anders Hoff https://inconvergent.net/generative/ or lots of projects on https://www.creativeapplications.net/ and of course the pioneering works of Frieder Nake et al. Am examples for generative design would be the old logo of the MIT Media lab https://www.engadget.com/2011-03-10-mit-media-lab-gets-a-mul...

fmoronzirfas··on Nova by Panic
Hm. Looks quite nice but does not work out of the box with fish shell and or Node installed using nvm only. It gives me a hint like this:

> Prettier couldn't be found because npm isn't available. Please make sure you have Node installed. If you've only installed Node through NVM, you'll need to change your shell configuration to work with Nova. See https://library.panic.com/nova/environment-variables/

Unfortunately the documentation is for zsh and bash only. Has anyone an idea how to get this up and running with any other shell?

fmoronzirfas··on Ask HN: Can the `lang=“en”` attribute interfere with the text content in Chrome?
The text itself was DE. The lang attribute was set to EN. I don’t know what language defaults his browser has. I assume DE. I thought Chrome was smarter then relying on this one attribute for translation…
fmoronzirfas··on Ask HN: Can the `lang=“en”` attribute interfere with the text content in Chrome?
I tried to replicate this scenario on Browserstack but that didn't work. The content of the page is in German. The Chrome built in translation showed the language as unknown. Also most of the text seemed right he only pointed out these two words.

I think orcs eating orcs only happens in the movies. In the books orcs don’t do that. What he missed is orcs eating human flesh
