Crazy for wanting a computer that's actually yours.

I believe there will come a day where people who can do this will be selling these on the black market for top dollar.


which desktop experience did you try

i'm a daily mac os x user (for a long time) and I think kde plasma is better


Even gnome tries to be too modern imo. KDE is perfect. I used to feel like KDE was too much like a toy. Now by comparison it looks utilitarian.


I've been using KDE for a decade and I completely agree. It used to be only better than GNOME because I could remove features from it and now I run completely stock KDE and it's solid compared to anything else.


I bought an SBC that booted into Gnome on the official disk image, and it didn't recognize my mouse. It was entirely unusable. In applications that were part of Gnome itself, like the settings menu, it was impossible to navigate using tab and arrow keys.


>settings menu, it was impossible to navigate using tab and arrow keys.

Huh? All you need is tab and the arrow keys to navigate the GNOME Settings app. I'm literally doing that right now. Maybe it was a later addition but it works perfectly fine in GNOME 49.


i love postgres and pgvector... this is exactly to my tastes


Yes, and I imagine pgclaw would pair well with pgmq and pg_cron for scheduled work. Postgres really is enough: https://postgresisenough.dev


Interesting to hear you say that, I was thinking (but hadn't said) that using WalEx to dispatch to some workers where the agent lived would be a better solution. The worker would then update the row (or more likely insert a new one in a different table with more constraints/different columns). I would be curious to hear what advantage you see in a `claw` type/`agent` column? I can't make heads or tails of it but I regard you as knowing a lot more about Postgres than me.


You could probably use listen/subscribe trigger to accomplish that.


Same, it's in a similar vein as pgvector - probably not as performant as turbopuffer or chroma but you get the benefits of being in a really nice ecosystem.


Is it? pgvector is primarily about indexing, I think? This feels more similar =AI in Google Sheets.


True though pgvector is not deterministic in a strict sense since HNSW is probabilistic.


exactly

had that extra spending gone to pay math teachers the results might be different


I'm going to have nightmares about waking up restrained in this thing.


Can I buy one for a belt? I'm periodically needing to add another notch to my belts and this seems a good replacement! Maybe another few colors, please?


I've got a belt like this [1] which works great. It is a braided belt and the prong on the buckle simply goes through the braiding so you in effect can have a hole wherever you want one.

I often adjust it depending on what I'm doing and after a few years I've not noticed in damage or degradation from sticking the prong through the braid.

That one reminds me of the NATO straps popular in combination with Casio watches, I used to have that.

But for a belt, I also have (used to have?) a canvas belt with a buckle that would pinch the belt instead of go through it. Two actually, the one had two D-rings, the other had a more involved system with a bar going through a slotted box of sorts.


Ratchet belts exist, e.g.: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07PGV4ZRD


Columbia also makes an infinitely adjustable belt https://www.amazon.com/Columbia-Mens-Boys-Military-Belt/dp/B...


How will you undo it? With a little tool to release the ratchet?


Um... go to kohls? I bought one for 30$ a few weeks ago.


I can't really trust this kind of statement since there is an obvious conflict of interest.

You can write lots of code with an LLM.

"I did ~20 PRs yesterday all coded by AI"

I guess anthropic makes you use a pull request for minor code changes.


Real estate agents say now is a good time to buy!


You'll do better showing this to the people who would be your users. Looks like a solid idea to make some money on the side solving a problem you actually have.

A lot of people on HN wouldn't be your users. That's fine. Find them and post this there.


glad I have your ear

as much as I love the meme in your post, it's the reason I won't be able to share it with work colleagues who use matlab every day

just something to consider


Appreciate the comment actually! It's good feedback -- we weren't sure if it's mixing work/memes too much, and keeping our materials clean like engineering docs are probably a good way to go. We may edit it out of the post.

Cheers for the comment!


NHK is also available over the air in some places, if you have an antenna


I get a weak signal of it over the air, but that’s what turned me on to them originally.
