All of this is because of the technological change (MP3, internet speed) not because of the streaming service.
kugla··on Many AI safety orgs have tried to criminalize currently-existing open-source AI
That is why I believe that this debate is pointless.

If AGI is possible, it will be made. There is no feasible way to stop it being developed, because the perceivable gains are so huge.

kugla··on On Emacs 28’ context menu and Unix mouse-usage in general
For me it is not about the speed of typing or not breaking the flow.

But after experimenting with home row mods and (split) keyboards with multiple thumb keys, regular keyboard layout usage just feels terribly inefficient.

While fast typing is not a bad thing it is definitely not necessary skill of good coder. But coding and using the terminal requires frequently using special keys and combinations, which on regular keyboard require constantly moving hands to access hard to reach keys.

Using home row mods (with a special keyboard) the hands are almost resting.
