You can do some signing hackery and allow Emacs to see executables from termux https://gsilvers.github.io/me/posts/20250921-emacs-on-androi...

For anyone who ends up here and curious.

It also behaves weirdly if you use a VPN.

As someone who saw this and was interested but also skeptical of this being low effort are there other open projects for running small models locally on android / iOS?

I've found https://github.com/alichherawalla/off-grid-mobile-ai but haven't tried anything in this space yet.

Stop using MIT licensed software being run by small vc backed operations if you value stability. They are risky and often costly Trojan horses.

The software designed car and continued price growth of automobiles is going to push them out of price range for consumers. Maybe Honda just wants to go out of a dying industry on good terms.

Good to see you kicking around and here in a thread about things small enough to think about! I've not seen any blog posts from you in a while Kartik but I come back to your lua musings from time to time.

I don't think you are being naive but I do caution you before you don't worry.

Its not always clear what the desired outcome is here. The dark pattern could have nothing to do with the tracking most folks worry about. We like our phones more than our laptops because we touch the screens for example. The dark pattern here could simply be you use the site more because you do more actions there driving you to waste time and view ads. Who knows.

That's awesome and based on my experience I'm not shocked this went well. I'm not sure what the features would be in this but I am assuming they could be specific pixel combinations or other things which would be easily labeled in a few ways. I hope you had fun with it.

My previous project was far from that. https://healthverity.com/audience-manager/

I had a lot of fun, really the last fun project I've had. I hope you had fun as well.

I worked (professionally) on a product a few years ago based upon decision tree and random forest classifiers. I had no background in the math and had to learn this stuff which has payed dividends as llms and AI have become hyped. This is one of the best explanations I've seen and has me super nostalgic for that project.

Gonna try to cook up something personal. It's amazing how people are now using regression models basically all the time and yet no-one uses these things on their own.

Why does everyone associated with this administration sound like a 17 year old who got dumped when they post on twitter.

I've had a Mac rather than a Linux machine at home for the last five or so years. Before that the arch wiki saved the day for me so many times.

Reading this has me looking for a junker laptop on eBay.

Full disclosure this is my employer but I find HN is a bit GLP1 engaged so I figured it was a good share. Do folks here anecdotally follow this trend of not continuing these drugs long term?

Why should booting a Linux VM require network access right away.

I'm thinking maybe they just want me to keep using termux over their sketchy shit

Add to this list that it tends to not work while connected via a VPN. Not sure why but this makes me very skeptical of it.

I dunno I just copied it into emacs. Another free short story to keep in my digital collection.

This is a wonderful app. Thanks for making builds available via Obtainium. You will be getting a donation shortly. I will assuredly use this when I go hiking and fishing.

I was going to ask. Is a goal here for users to self/locally host if they like?

Oh yes absolutely.

Thanks !

I'm not sure I understand. Are you implying we should not design our technology around serious edge cases that humans encounter in life? Why wouldn't we target people in crisis when we design crisis management information sites?

One thing that I would also suggest folks who are resonating with this piece consider...

Local copies of important information on your mobile device. Generally your laptops are not going to see much use. Mobile apps tend to fake local data and store lots of things to the cloud. We tend to ignore such things like backups and local copies nowadays. Most of the time we can get away without any worry here but consider keeping a copy of things like medications and their non commercial names for situations like this as well.

Most cafes even chains like Starbucks sell americanos in the USA.

I use organic maps. I also have a seperate user profile that can not run in the background that has Google maps installed and use that sparingly. I've used it once in the last 6 months.

If this were good for stock go up 9/10 startups wouldn't fail. While cutting corners can be needed at times doing the wrong thing doesn't. Eventually the wrong thing also pisses off the market and turns your company into a joke with a bad reputation.

Maybe this is ok?

Many non open source apps do get critical mass but they eventually go bust. Emacs, git, Linux and I think even Mastodon have a slower uptake but do not seem to have such a high risk of collapse. While YouTube and Facebook et al seem to have an insurmountable moat and collection of users the reality is recent history is littered with boom to bust failures:

MySpace, Vine, Yahoo all the way back to GeoCities.

I would be patient and only worry if mastodon is actively dying.

For me it's the only social media app I have installed.

I guess my 8a is gonna have to do for a bit longer. This one is very exciting.

Sorry if my post is confusing I'm referring to the poster I replied to mentioning the Pilet which is a raspberry pi based project. Jolla phone I really can't speak too. It sounds closer to graphene where they understand the benefit of reasonable hardware quality and battery life.

Am I the only one who just feels burnt out on these type of projects? We have a plethora of raspberry pi and other arm mobile developer kits that all just fail to deliver. They make great pet projects but fail at what most mobile phones do great which is provide a computer I can reliably and safely take with me in life. This pilet thing has 7 hours of battery life, is huge and will probably explode if I put it in my bikes bag.

While it's not perfect I've been investing more time into learning to live with grapheneOS. I can run Emacs and clang on the go. It's a better start that won't turn into a paperweight.
