I don't think your sign up process is GDPR compliant - you need to say why you are collecting the information you are asking for, what you are going to do with that information, how long you are going to retain it for and how one can request for it to be deleted.

How old are you now? Mid fifties here. And 'vibe coding' in what exactly - it is not of interest from a programming perspective, but from a 'what does the AI know best perspective'? I've followed a similar, but not identical trajectory and now vibe in python/htmx/flask without needing to review the code in depth (NB internal apps, not public facing ones), with claude code max. Vibe coding in the last 6-8 weeks now also seems to make a decent fist of embedded coding - esp32/arduino/esp-32, also claude code.

I had a Naida, now have a Marvel. The difference is night and day. The Marvel is hands-down the best hearing setup I have ever had (I am mid 50's, have worn aids of one type or another since I was 3 yo). Bluetooth is a game changer. The Roger On is fabulous in meetings and with computers (it appears as a USB sound device, it's far more reliable than BT for that). Battery life is fantastic, it lasts more than a day, and there's a fall back to disposable cells if required. Mobile app is a bit 'meh', but the rest is so good I can't complain!

Quite sure the complexity of AWS is forcing the SME types out - even the most basic operations require reference to chatGPT to find the details buried in the UI. It's gone from being 'good enough' - I mean the UI 15 years ago was basic, but adequate to labyrinthine. We don't have complex needs, they're met by AWS, but the combo of premium pricing and a diabolical UI will force our migration eventually.

I'm sure markdown email has been done? But just didn't gain traction?

What is Dia (perhaps provide a link)? I'm aware of the diagramming tool, but that's clearly not what you mean here?

Lister diesel generators are much the same - half a dozen cranks, restore compression and off they go. The hand cranking can easily break your arm if you get it wrong though.

This is patently wrong - as an experiment, I've vibe coded* four apps in the last 10 days. I did not write one line of code myself. Two are crud style, one is DNS related and one is for an embedded device. They were non-trivial use cases, built using claude desktop with various MCP tools. I was blown away by just how good it was.

*the original definition of vibe coding involved using voice to dictate the prompts to AI, I prefer to type.

The only time my home directory gets cleaned up (it is littered with random binaries) is when I get a new machine... It feels very wrong, but also quite cathartic at the same time!

What is tailscale going to do with GPUs? It's about as far removed from NL interaction as you can get, I really don't see any sane AI fit. Maybe they are using them for AI driven dev work? Probably need to think more laterally.

When they raised the 100M three years ago, I'm pretty sure they said they didn't need it and were saving it for a rainy day (or words to that effect), always seemed very odd at the time. Two q's for anyone who cares to speculate: have they burnt the original investment already? And if not, why would they need more funding? AFAICS there's no real competition in the market place for their product today, the only thing I can conceive is that they have a secret 'tailscale 2' project in the wings which is massively developer or capital intensive. Let's hope it is nothing related to AI band wagoning :-)

Just wondered if the vm provising frontend is opensourced in all or part? Not looking to clone your business, just for a provisioning framework that allows for fiddling (as opposed to say something like proxmox, which allows for provisioning via a friendly UI but can't practically be tweaked behind the scenes).

This is the way, small bite-sized pieces of the elephant. Unfortunately it means you do need to understand programming concepts, composition and to a lesser degree, architecture. On the positive side - these are new tools, and we need to learn how to work with them. They do have the power to nX times the person who has a bit of knowledge and can also adapt to their ways.

The open source model seems to be uncensored, lending weight to the separate filter concept. Plus, any filter needs to be revised as new workarounds emerge - if it is baked in to the model that requires retraining, whereas it's reasonably light work for a frontend filter.

Symbian is anything but simple!
