Sadly these relatively recent price bumps on hardware have made on-prem a bit of a harder sell for some.

Definitely do so, please! I happened to stumble upon Sythe more than a decade ago but never participated.

And here I was thinking of Trailblazers Into the March.

> Length is just an attempt to be less wrong

Don't know if it was intended but there's something to be said about the discussions happening at length on www.lesswrong.com and I felt I had to acknowledge your penmanship.

On the actual topic I for one think some people like reading themselves just as much as hearing themselves thus they're writing for their own audience of one.

The "footnotes to Plato" quote is more about the idea that Philosophy doesn't exist in a vacuum rather than just scoring brownie points with peers studying the same thing.

I had a longer written reply but it turned out pretty snarky. In my opinion Philosophy is built upon just like Mathematics otherwise most people can't meaningfully engage.

Since when are code poets no longer a thing? /s

From what I know (someone correct me if I'm wrong) Pi/Earendil is VC-backed so it's just a matter of time really. I don't see any other end game for them as a company other than being acqui-hired. In this regard I have more faith in something like Zed (the code editor, VC-backed too) to retain their "independence".

Pi is alright but it's only virtue so far is being the Neovim of harnesses, minimal yet (incredibly) extensible. That being said it's still early days and unclear how the whole landscape regarding agentic stuff will play out at various different levels. For example I prefer stuff like Claude Code and Pi but I've seen a friend use Kiro at work with some crazy workflows all basically structured around Markdown files, spec writing, ingesting tickets from Jira and then validating/testing the code written automagically.

Nice! I've seen it around on the Nim forums. Is it terminal only or do you plan to make use of Nim's JavaScript backend at some point to make a web UI too?

Yep, check out PlayTika's slew of games for an example. They're a pretty large company specializing in this kind of stuff.

The one time a similar mascot to FreeBSD's would've made sense.

When I was younger and I heard the saying along the lines of "struggling against the indifference of the universe" I didn't realize at the time it included people too.

I'm still a bit salty they fiddled with the Lists UI when star'ing a repo and adding it to a list.

The emojis I had at the beginning of the list name don't render anymore (they show up as :eyesore_emoji_name: instead) and the list is sorted alphabetically now instead of by last modified. Also it's one looong list instead of a small scroll-able container like it used to be.

This is on Firefox btw. Now I'm seriously thinking about moving these GitHub "bookmarks" into a separate place like a bookmark manager even if I lose a bit of convenience.

The Emacs version for Android makes uses of something like this IIRC by signing a version of Termux with the same key and distributing it in the same SourceForge repo such that Emacs on Android can access CLI tooling like git for example.
