Renamable tabs?

That looks super interesting, congratulations. I would suggest you do write lots of documentation, a more elaborate readme on github and generally push your approach. As it stands, the repo looks somewhat unfinished and inactive, unlikely to make people spend their time and energy digging into it. I hope you drive it forward!

That looks perfect, thanks!

Almost all of them will have some difference. What is needed is to parse the previous state, calculate the difference in size, and show only the "significant" difference.

I often want to know who there is a sudden growth disk usage over the last month/week/etc, what suddenly take space. In those cases I find myself wishing that du and friends would cache their last few runs and would offer a diff against them, this easily listing the new disk eating files or directories. Could dut evolve to do something like that?

I wrote a cross platform outliner 20 years ago that I have been using almost everyday since. I have more than 60'000 headers in there, with my notes about everything.

Right now I'm building a flutter/kotlin meditation timer for myself.

You might not see any benefit, but that's what those words mean :) Grab any textbook, it is linguistics 101!

That's technically wrong. Every language has morphemes for the simple reason that every word is at least one morpheme. `cat` is a morpheme. `cats` is two morphemes (cat-s).

(The point about semantics is also technically wrong. You would first need to specify your view of semantic compositionality before such a point can be evaluated, but the usual views of semantics don't have any such consequence.)

The minimal semantic parts of words are morphemes. Syllables are phonological units (roughly: the minimal unit for rhythmic purposes such as stress, etc)

it only takes 3 lines in a systemd override fille (which I think don't suffer the overwrite-on-upgrade problem). To my mind, that keeps the startup logic nicely local in service files.

Beautifully said! However, in my experience, finding your own virtue requires interacting with others, and adjusting our view depending on how it went. Ie it takes both the grouping with others, and the inner quest.

And once you're grouped with others, why not interact also group to group, rather than just individual to individual, and profit from both higher order learning and influencing the world -- which I think is similar to what you describe as "power seeking aspects".

That said, the piece about finding "like-minded individuals" remains elusive, if one is serious about pursuing one's own values and way of being in the world.

Freeware versus open source is a good point. But freeware typically can't be modified by the recipient, whereas downloadable models and open source code can. So I think there's still a need for a different term, neither open source nor freeware...

You also need to change the boot behavior of sshd to wait for wireguard (tailscale in my case) to be available. I had to add a couple of lines to the ssh systemd unit.

This looks great - how do you then keep the subset that you want to continue listening to in the longer term? Is there an "extract to my music collection" feature - or is this your music repository?
