Cool. I signed up to pCloud recently and what I miss most is a native way to edit files on iOS and windows desktop and have it auto save. Almost to the point going back to Google or onedrive just so I can use sheets or excel and not thinking about how to open the doc or save it.

How will you cool it? Will it be under ground? I’ve often thought about this as we have space and sunlight.

He is saying that more devices that have single use is better? Maybe that’s true but the downside is you own more stuff.

I reckon producing corn in the Midwest would be the most researched and documented crop and location ever in history. So baked into an LLM should be some very good knowledge and assumptions. Growing a different crop elsewhere may be more challenging.

That’s interesting comment. I didn’t think about that. I’ve only ever used Ubuntu flavours so I’ll search through what the popular rolling releases are out of interest.

I’ve only ever used Ubuntu flavours but maybe I should give it a try. Thanks

Why?

I agree. It feels like combination of peak windows UI with the ease of Ubuntu baked in. Then the little mobile app they have that gives you shared clipboard with iOS is cool.

That’s great news thanks. I got the gen 3 so maybe some improvements. Weight is ok as I really just move it around the house. I buy used Panasonics for the workshop.

Are you running windows?

I am giving my MacBook Air M2 15” to my wife and bought a Lenovo E16 with 120hz screen to run Kubuntu last night. She needed a new laptop and I am had enough of macOS and just need some stuff to work that will be easier on an intel and Linux. Also I do bookwork online so bigger screen and dedicated numpad will be nice. It reviews well and seems like good value for money with current holiday sales but I don’t expect the same hardware quality or portability just a little more freedom. I hope I’m not too disappointed. https://www.notebookcheck.net/Lenovo-ThinkPad-E16-G3-Review-...

Can someone tell me if hibernate works on the kubuntu Focus IR14. I love kubuntu but as I’ve mentioned elsewhere really don’t like inability for my thinkpad to hibernate without losing charge. I’d buy a Linux first machine if I knew it would just work.

That’s fair. So you’re pretty confident most these very annoying Linux hardware issues go away with Linux first hardware? Suggest a couple brands for me to look into please to replace the thinkpad?

Yes I moved away from Windows to MacOS but couldnt get used to the UI and they have now sprinkled bad AI tools throughout. I use KUbuntu now which feels a bit like Windows 10 and really is all I need. But what I really want on my Thinkpad with KUbuntu is the perfect open/close screen management like the Macbook has and changing from second monitor to no second monitor often causes issues and doesnt just work argh.. Maybe one of these linux first laptops will fill the void.

Come to Australia

Thanks for sharing. I watched some of canbus video and came back to say it looks really interesting. I am building a prototype diesel electric autonomous vehicle for farm applications at the moment so the videos are somewhat relevant to me.

This strategy makes sense for a large TAM. But if you are attacking quite a small niche. You don’t want half your market on some grandfathered deal that doesn’t make any money. Maybe the niches I think about are too small.

Exactly. I'm using gpt4 more than copilot as of today. I just keep adding more info and get it to write the code that I cp.

I ask it to write it in small chuncks but in the same context. I sometimes have to remind it to refer back to decisions we made earlier.

What

-- ok I watched the start of the video. He says the claim is ridiculous which makes sense.

Ardurover discourse and Endless sphere could be worth checking out. I've built a Ardurover rig many years ago for a bit of fun (https://agmapsonline.wordpress.com/2013/06/18/autonomous-veh...)

I have fun researching building something bigger in my spare time.

> Huffman explains the strategy in a video for Udacity, an online education service.

The Udacity web development course was my introduction to coding. It blew my mind. He was a good teacher.

Well there you go. News to me.

I used Windows server 2022 for first time today on a vps. It's what I imagine we all want windows to be. Just simple Windows 10ish ui without all the fluff. I imagine its very stable too given its for servers. Reminds me of Windows 2000 I ran on my Pentium 2. Does anyone just use Windows sever 2022 on their desktop? Why not?

I agree. It's just wrong. It's not lying.

Hugo with the Docsy theme.

I reckon there is space for a drop in replacement ui for Angular and Ionic that respects screen real estate and users ability to interep a more dense set of information. Less padding etc. I'd pay for it. Or there could just be a few small modifications to make what is there more workable.

Amen. I'm glad I'm not the only person that has resorted to this. I've done it on Angular too in the past. Just a core service that holds all the state, import it into everything.

That church bell one is amazing. Very creative transition.

Is Material dead? What replaced it?

Thanks. I was about to freak out if you built and maintained all this as a 1 person team.
