I'm out of the loop -- how so?

Here's someone experimenting with what I mean: https://github.com/idosal/mcp-ui
thekodols··on MCP explained without hype or fluff
I know it’s in active discussion on GH, but I wish clients would solve (non-text) UIs from MCP servers rather soon. It would 10x the power of these chat extensions.
thekodols··on Journalism's dependence on part-time freelancers
>There's a lot of evidence that the costs of government go up as local journalism recedes, because there is no one to objectively report on waste, corruption, and inefficiency.

Never considered it, but it seems to make a lot of sense. Would you mind pointing me to the evidence about this you mentioned?

thekodols··on Annotation is now a web standard
This is such a great project. The potential here is just immense. I wish dwhly and everyone at hypothes.is the best of luck.

P.S. This url - https://hypothes.is/register - accessible from most pages by clicking "sign up" in the top-right corner, presents an error and doesn't redirect anywhere. https://hypothes.is/signup works fine, however.

thekodols··on TIS-100 – Tessellated Intelligence System
There's Rocksmith. It's essentially Guitar Hero just with a real guitar. So you do actually learn to play the instrument.
thekodols··on Microsoft Edge's JavaScript engine to go open-source
If it fails when they paste via right-click menu, it's actually a known issue/design decision on Drive's side. Try using shortcuts instead.
thekodols··on Ten years ago Wikipedia was widely considered a doomed experiment
Do you by any chance have links to those studies? I'm building a crowdsourced platform, so that info could be super-valuable to me.
thekodols··on Game changer: Goodbye disk, hello superfast in-memory databases
Is there a resource that goes into detail on differences of various in-memory databases? Where do I start learning about these things?
thekodols··on How Estonia became a leader in technology
While things described in the second paragraph are true, calling Baltic States as being at the forefront of IT tech is a bit of a stretch.

Except for Estonia (Estonia actually doesn't like to be associated that much with Baltics, their mentality is more in line with their northern neighbors.), governments here don't really know how to approach IT. They're just as much out of touch with modern technologies as US gov. It's quite chaotic and unregulated. Plus, silly amounts of corruption.

And the regulations that they do impose end up hurting the countries instead of helping them.

Plus, we are tiny countries (population-wise) that have 2nd world living standards. Not many people can afford to start startups.

thekodols··on A Bitcoin Technology Gets Nasdaq Test
So how does it work?
thekodols··on [dead]
Great might not be the best choice of words, but it is doing what most businesses set out to do. It is making money.
thekodols··on Toka (2015): A Chatroom's Response to Facebook
I'd actually really love to hear about the ideology.

thekodols··on Jason Calacanis: Apple will buy Tesla for $75b in 18 months
This is just a "wouldn't it be cool?" There are no meaningful deductions being made.
