Great stuff. I always love technical fluff about the history and philiosophy of operating systems

haha, funny, I was thinking the same thing!

Pretty cool.. I had no idea Hal was such a hacker on the personal computers in those days... makes me think of Bitcoin whenever I hear Hal mentioned

Great article. I need to care more myself even if other do not care, thanks for the wake up call!

Almost skipped this as there were no comments. Ended up favoriting it. Thanks :)

I remember trying to help a fellow student in Manchester University around 1991 and thinking I was deleting a subfolder when in fact I was in their home directory:

rm -rf *

Ok I'm using cursor again. It is helping me with about 10% of the autocomplete on a very simple one file NodeJS project, but anything more complex it definitely messes it up.

Thanks. I've tried Cursor, but probably more useful on smaller codebases I found and for simple code changes. Can you share the github repo that you use it on, or give me an indication of the codebase size that you use it on?

I “wish” AI would replace me so that I could do other stuff than coding
