> Feels better to me in the sense that it doesn't try to be too clever. When I ask it to do things it actually generates code that a developer would write. That still lets me build software in layers like I do mentally. And it keeps you in control of where abstractions are.
yes!So it's not just me. In terms of how intelligent they want to be OpenAI is at the top, then Claude. And actually when I was playing with Sol it meant that many tasks it would just try to do something else because it thought I don't know what I want. Even trying to nudge it back in the right direction wouldn't work.
I guess the models just have the cultures of their creatures.

KeepassXC now supports passkeys as well.

Did you not read the part from the author saying that there is currently no linux support? And yes, it looked like a macOS app to me. [1]
But apart from given what I've seen from my experience with handling maildir, actually implementing mail sync, storage, and all the other things associated with mail AND calendar, it sounds risky to use a project this young.

The search is also incredibly slow. I didn't notice just how slow and inaccurate it is until I built my mail client on notmuch.

I think this looks good, but I'm not on a Mac anymore.
For people that want a terminal client with tabs, integrated html viewer(including images), markdown compose, MCP, with unified inbox, I built notmutt.

It's still doing exactly that. Bullying Taiwanese and European companies to move their production facilities, throwing their CEO's in prison and then offering freedom in exchange for a sale. I'm not going to sugarcoat how the EU is starving its graduates from access to capital to build things, but much of what comes from the US is research from other countries.
It's funny how the US is amazing because it takes the worlds research, but China is horrible because it steals IP from companies it invests in.
Whatever, even if you ignore the company IP side of things, 8 out of 10 top 5G research Universities are Chinese now.
Not long ago I remember reading that Britain was complaining about how Germany was creating counterfeit items with british labels and that Made in Germany back then was something imposed on them to deal with this situation. It was some sort of Trade conference in Europe in the 19th century I believe, but I cannot find that book anymore.

I'm surprised that people don't know the patent landscape. The US may be leading 5G patents in total numbers, probably by multinational corps. But 8 out of 10 top university contributions come from China and Huawei is the largest single company contributor in 5G research. Qualcomm wouldn't make an agreement with Huawei if they didn't need to.
To the people that say "why can't Huawei make a 5G phone". Huawei was manufacturing their chips with 5G modems at TSMC until the US went after them trying to turn them into HTC or Alstom Energy, but it failed. It's one of the reasons why Taiwan now has zero leverage as the US has been hollowing them out since the last administration. But Huawei have been building their own domestically produced modems for a few years now.
I used to attend the communication network meetups with all the professors in Germany and mI think all of them agree that all that energy sanctioning China should have been spent on actual competition domestically in the West.

It's not that talent isn't there anymore. It's that retards are at the helm everywhere and therefore talent is running away the first chance they have.

Usually when the US forces exit a theater it's a prelude to war, like the Afghanistan withdrawal was so that they couldn't be retaliated against. I caution people not to get too excited about this.

Most electricity and infrastructure is profitable. But not after carving it out in a way that looks at it in complete isolation. Just like train infrastructure creates a lot of business around the area of the train infrastructure, even if the train itself may seem not self sustained.

I'm building notmutt (notmuch + mutt). A tabbed, async terminal mail client with unified inbox, with included html viewer(with image support), mcp server, lua scripting. I tried using neomutt with unified inbox and I ended up messing up my maildirs every so often. i also tried adding async tasks(for sending) to neomutt, but there was no interest from the project, which made me realize that there is a lot more to it than just sending async mails.
The goal is to have a very fast terminal mail client where you don't have to wait for any operations and that is tightly integrated with notmuch(a common mail full text search engine) tagging engine, and other workflows(like crm queues and ai summary's if enabled in the config).
There is a document that explains why it was made in go. It has the best notmutt cgo bindings, and there are other reference terminal clients I can use as reference. althogh himalaya(rust) also looks interesting.
I would love to get some help with it, but I don't know where I should post it to get people interested.

Why did that happen?

Match owns Okcupid now doesn't it?
With how easy it is to build apps now, is it really unreasonable to bring the old one back in a simple/cheap/sustainable way, that shields it off of being bought by those nightmare data brokers?
