There is also dua-cli or mcdu, if someone prefers a ncdu-style disk usage visualizer.

Isn't that just point #2 from above? He rationally decided that his friends and family, and the values he is a part of, are more important to him, then being in geology, and some deep truth that it would supposed show him. Maybe he just didn't care enough about _this_ truth, compared to being part of the world he is in.

This is really cool. Have you thought of maybe accessing the screen through accessibility APIs? For Android mobile devices I have a skill I created that accesses the screen xml dump as part of feature development and it seems to work much better than screenshots / videos. Is this scalable to other OS's?

Actually they do change the native API quite a bit. Not in minor releases so much but in major releases

Thank you for sharing, this was very insightful.

Do you have another example of something like this that your team had to deal with that was not as easy, but "looked easier" for the users?

This article is about an Israeli developed system, so no US tax payer money was used. It is an off topic discussion to discuss your hatred for Israel. Maybe submit a different article about that, but it is off topic for this one.

None. The US money Israel receives is purely used for buying from US defense contractors. This is developed by purely Israeli defense contractors. The US leverages significant discounts on these Israeli developed systems compared to other countries.

Also, the amount Israel gets is in the same ballpark as Egypt and Lebanon, but interesting that that is never mentioned?

In theory, that is the benefit of having an agent that is limited to only doing the tests, and an agent that only does the coding, and have them run separately, that way to fix a test, you don't change the test, etc...

OpenAI is not profitable because it is spending resources into moving forward and training new models and creating new tools.

There is nothing to defend there. They could have easily: * Made the donations go directly to funding the browser development. Right now I don't know if it even possible to donate purely just to browser development * They could have easily opened a services/consultancy arm, similar to igalia. A great and easy way to fund browser development. (How igalia has funded servo development in the past) * Create a for-pay enterprise support. In the past a lot of government organizations wouldn't use Chrome due to how the Chrome updates worked. They could have made a killing in government contracts just around that

And these are just a few simple income directions that are pretty common in other OSS projects. Instead they did braindead ideas like being a VPN reseller, giving away Pocket, and other things no one wanted or asked for.

If the WSL 1 ended up working, it would have been one of the best historical coincidences in MS's history. A long forgotten feature in the NT kernel, unique to pretty much any other OS out there, used to push it's dominance in the 90's, is revived almost 30 years later, to fight for relevance with Unix based OS, once again. To quote Gorge Lucas, It's like poetry, it rhymes.

That sidebar doesn't have the ability to do any actions on the browser tab, or have the data form the browser as a context in any way. It is just a simple iframe.

Thanks! Will track your project for the future. Looks very promising

Looks amazing. Would love something like this in Firefox or Zen. Mozilla released Orbit, but it was never something that ended up really being useful.

A similar process is happening with zellij and tmux. Since I switched over I feel that tmux is obsolete.
