open source apps can be insanely powerful (and free!) but a thing that keeps a lot of them from 'mainstream' adoption is simply the F-tier user experience

gimp had the same issue and i wouldnt be surprised if you also miss the old GTK UI?

making audacity feel like a modern app instead of a dusty relic isnt making it into McDonalds..

I for one applaud this upgrade -- its the polish it should have had years ago

just me or does this entire site/text read as 100% LLM generated? extremely ironic if so, they just pasted the AI.

fun fact: this ”far right” party was founded by a former member of the Young Left - youth wing of the Swedish Left Party (formerly known as the Communist Party). Horseshoe theory in practice or just wrongly labeled?

just read it and not entirely sure what the allegory was, if any.

some ideas off the top of my head:

- "humans invent meaning after losing orientation": instead of simply accepting reality (we cant comprhened, our instruments cant measure this, we are lost etc) they turn helplessness into theology

- "science-becomes-religion": hypotheses, measurements revise previous findings into increasing absurdity which eventually becomes religion.

-" life as a waiting room": the station is an allegory for life or conciousness. we're all solitary voyagers on our infinite journey thru the "waiting rooms" of our existence. the journey is the destination etc

curious to hear other riffs/takes on this

what’s this precocious urge to define what vibe coding is and isn’t?

who cares?
