The gap in capabilities is mostly quantitative and not qualitative.

That's one (Marxist) definition of it, but the movement is much broader and more varied than that.

When competition has no rules it resorts to people banging each other over their heads with clubs.

Disheartening. macOS seems to get less and less support in a way. For example some of the Blizzard remakes don't run on macOS but the originals do.

"Buy more RAM" usually isn't the thing I want to hear when my linter is slow.

There is a qualitative difference between unsafe Rust and Zig as far as I know.

I don't think you have specified that "," is used to pick up stuff in the bar below the log.

Climate change is too soft of a term. Maybe that's why it doesn't interest people who like to declare war on things.

The targeted term must be something that is clearly human made, something that sounds undeniably bad and something that is easily understood by everyone at first glance:

_War on Pollution_

Nature is good, pollution is bad. People who pollute are _obviously bad_ and they do bad things. Pollution is wasteful and ugly. Yuck!

Also it's more general than climate change. Ocean plastic is also bad. Chemical, electronic and light pollution etc.

The people who think of chemtrails and 5g waves. They really hate pollution so much, they see it everywhere. Give them a war that they can join in.

These corporations exist and do work. Worker owned companies have their own challenges and their own advantages.

For example they tend to be more stable during crisis, because workers tend to vote for lowering salaries/benefits temporarily rather than doing layoffs. So they retain talent better. But they also tend to have difficulty to grow quickly, for obvious reasons.

Besides full on coops, there are also plenty of examples that are hybrids (partially worker owned).

> they would get their face eaten by other more efficient and ruthless corporations

You're possibly of assuming that a company needs to have an adversarial relationship to their workers in order to be competitive. I don't think that's generally true. This approach has advantages in specific situations, but disadvantages in others.

I think you make a point that is worthy of discussion, but the first sentence is unnecessarily hostile. The comment you responded to already made a caveat that they might be too cynical.

I‘m surpised at the presented dichotomy between JSON formatting and what the Apple SDK provides to parse output into structs.

Based on what I understand about how the former works, I would assume that the latter has the same properties and failure modes.

Local could also mean self hosted.

The obvious optimization for the case presented would be to generate all the summaries on a server instead of in the client. Then the totally used compute would scale with the number of articles instead of number of users.

Aside, but I struggled a long time with regular sleep. I have been a night owl since I was a kid. I experience late hours as magical, don’t know how to describe it. So I always slept too little, then not at all, then drifting and sleeping in.

But I somehow managed to have a regular schedule and now I start to sleep at 00:00-01:00 very often, sometimes even earlier.

No idea how I managed to do that. I guess I just did improve many small things, like getting rid of bad habits, being more content, appreciating sleep more, prioritizing things differently.

I wish everyone good, healthy sleep.

The insight for me is that the assumptions of system need to be stated, not just the intent.
