Yes it is extremely aggravating that Claude will often raise copyright objections even when doing something like putting images in a report for personal use. The AI companies are the most blatant copyright abusers in history.

Kirby rocks. It's so much better designed than WordPress.

For me the main issue with Bear is that it does not work with a directory of Markdown files, but locks them away in a database. If you worked directly on markdown files it would be nearly perfect. They did make a standalone markdown editor called Panda, but didn't pursue it for some reason.

I love this! It is like you have taken all the things I want from Obsidian (plus plug-ins) and made them into a single, well designed app. Great!

Feedback:

* This is so good you should find a way to keep it open source but also profit from it so you can develop it full-time. You could just have an official app version - I would pay for that.

* Feature creep. I am a big fan of Bear App for it's wonderful simple design, although I stopped using it because it doesn't work on markdown files directly. What I've seen is that equivalent apps/services (including Obsidian, Notion, Craft) are continuously adding new features. You've already got all the core features I think - try to avoid feature creep, and keep it focused on just doing the core things really well, like Bear App does.

Children of Time is wonderful! I wish Adrian Tchaikovsky would stop churning them out so quickly and write some more of the quality of Children of Time.

I can confirm that eliminating coffee can make a big difference.

Get glasses with the correct focal length for the distance you have your screen at. It makes a huge difference.

Great idea! Someone please do this.

What is the advantage of using avif over using an MP4 file?

The Economist rocks. They also have a wonderful daily summary of the news that takes five mins to read.

Yes Children of Time is very good. Tchaikovsky is excellent at portraying alien/non-human minds. You can tell he studied zoology and psychology at university.
