This is clearly a joke btw

Probably was shot with a Samsung phone

Interesting results https://rhashimoto.github.io/wa-sqlite/demo/benchmarks.html

TIL Adroid Emulator is Qemu

It saddens me that so many of these open source projects barely get any monetary love.

Checkout https://lfw.dev and https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=34857435#34862767 for background on the Localfirstweb.dev launch and ensuing conversation.

Amazing to see this community coming together. We are having the first #LFW meetup @ 4PM ET Feb 28,2023 on our discord stage. Come join us https://lfw.dev/ (https://localfirstweb.dev)

We have an amazing lineup prepared for you, including @pvh you can find the details here: https://twitter.com/founderYonz/status/1628846898898501632?t...

If you haven't already this would be a great #learn or #build post in https://lfw.dev

Not that many, we need more builders. https://www.inkandswitch.com/ has a few and ofc checkout the apps to try section on the site.

https://rxdb.info/offline-first.html has a good write up on this.

I'm also trying to dig up this local-first GitHub client that a hacker built and demoed on YouTube

Apparently, it might be caused by CSS blur

Absolutely need something here This keeps coming up everywhere. Down below in this HN thread, r/programming LFW comments and the discord chat.

Database as a storage and sync layer makes a lot of sense but it's hard to pull of the encryption and device provisioning at that abstraction layer.

That is a good point, we will have it updated tomorrow.

It wasn't deliberate omission but more that he is essentially the person who kicked it off and the first link is the ink and switch local-first article

Would love to have you share your learnings with the community.

This is the first time I'm hearing about QBIX. Feel free to send a PR with a short description to be considered for the page.

Lots of comments here, and r/programming are missing the point of local-first. Without local-first, there is no reasonable way to fix the fragmented and siloed nature of data in today's products. Local-first systems rely on data living in user space (vs. product silo), creating an avenue for reusable, portable, and composable data.

Let's take movie streaming to break this down.

1. Composability: Our viewing history is siloed in Netflix, Disney, Apple TV, and Prime Video. You could access better recommendations if these platforms merged your viewing history.

2. Re-usability: Say you signup for Hulu. Since the collaborative filtering model doesn't have any information on you, it takes a while for you to get good recommendations. Even worse still, this prevents new startups from being able to compete.

3. Portability: Web2 companies have almost perfected lock-in models, and this is primarily because you can't move your data. Most people learned the hard way trying to mastodon.

/> Local-first at a high level tackles these by moving data storage to user space (not offline but local-first). Yielding newfound capabilities for:

- ML trained on all your movie-watching history

- Single source of truth for your relationships as opposed to your connections on Twitter, LinkedIn, Instagram, etc., and their specific handles. If you want to partition by platform, you can still do it.

- User-owned private keys and historical data create exciting opportunities to skip signups and re-use historical data with new applications.

- Death to spinners!

Quick responses to some of the common themes,

- Conflict-free sync is hard, but it is not complexity for the sake of complexity; with in-device/p2p conflict resolution, you can finally have a world free of spinners.

- This is not native app development where your app state is a warm cache for BE source of truth.

- Yes, it creates a world where you can use apps offline, which is always a good thing.

- No, its not a service or a stack. It is more of an ideology and can't guarantee people won't abuse it.

Just wild! checkout the source code the page isn't doing much: https://github.com/localfirstweb/localfirstweb.dev

Being able to have storage and network transparent business logic is something that I get really excited about. In my mind I want a GraphQL interface (ORMis) for a database that acts like a wire protocol.

These two links have the same zip code: https://www.sqlite.org/np1queryprob.html https://engineering.fb.com/2020/03/02/data-infrastructure/me...

I get your argument, cargo really gave Rust a leg up.

Unfortunately we are far from having a go to platform. The community page's primary objective is to get the word out and connect local first builders.

Woww, is this still happening? its literally a barebones jekyll page https://github.com/localfirstweb/localfirstweb.dev

Not sure what we can fix, does https://lfw.dev also crash (redir to localfirstweb)

Genius! Gott love it when simple ideas create game changing improvement.

I have 168 tabs open and regardless of how hard i organize them, it's still a mess. I will give this a try today.

How is the CDRT work going for https://tinybase.org/ ?

Today's internet is broken due to the fragmented and siloed nature of products. Once you see that user owned data is the solution you can not unsee it.

My journey started with the https://www.inkandswitch.com/local-first/ that caused a stir on HN https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=19804478. With https://lfw.dev we are making it easy for others to learn about, discover and build the Local-First world.

But How?

Great compilation, would be great to see Vision Transformer (ViT) included.

Andrej Karpathy's GPT video is a must have companion for this https://youtu.be/kCc8FmEb1nY I was going nuts trying to grok Key, Query,Position and Value until Andrej broke it down for me.

Just finished this, need a part 2 for the PPO reward functionality

Is there any place to find Public keys to follow?

If Snowflake Cloud could bolt a working version of something like this, that would epic.

There has to be a way to do invariant training for LLMs, they are already mind boggling powerful but if these models could use language grammar files / Table schemas to learn to respond correctly it would be a game changer.

I am curious about the next codex release.

I believed the same thing for a while
