I have been using this one[0] and it is small, fast, and seems to work pretty great for me so far.

Or, and hear me out, maybe FreeBSD wants to position itself as a secure server OS that doesn't get all its data leaked by some rando simply asking it to do it the right way?

>Yup, it's absolutely not his voice.

However it does seem to copy the the way he "lisps" his S's. I am not sure that is common 'generic-sounding "podcast guy" voice'.

Well, it does help if you expect sight impaired people with software to find the site useful.

>Might be worth trying a fresh OS install?

Very "Windows-y", no?

Haven't you heard the good news? Rust is life .. Rust is love .. Rust is all! only partially being sarcastic here, considering how it is glazed and championed.

>What's the plan to avoid a Bluesky-like bubble from forming around Vouch projects?

Perhaps that is the plan?

Are you including the wars and operations that we supported in the shadows to shore up that capitalism?

I have noticed that Antigravity is lightening fast, wonder what magic they are using?

So would your recommendation that each individual teacher put in their own guardrails or you try to get millions of teachers to agree?

This is true in a way. We are all very free to research and innovate, it is just when you get it in your mind to actually make any money that the lawsuits show up.

>LLMs are slot machines- it's fun to pull the lever and see what you get. But the hard problem of knowing what is actually needed gets harder as we sift through ten-thousand almost-useful outputs.

If you study computer tech history, this has happened a few times: with php (omg! You mean I can use the same language as the back end right in the web page?), visual basic (omgf! You mean I can just "draw" an program for a computer?), node.js (OMFG!! You mean I can be considered a "full stack developer" from a 1 hour lesson?), voice assistants with ML (OMFGcopter!!Q1! You mean I can ask my house what the weather outside my house is and it knows? and it knows how many tablespoons are in a cup?), and now we are at gen AI (I'm sorry Dave, I can't generate a website for you that rug-pulls MethCoin©, however I can create the Electric powered umbrellas 3d models to print, along with electronics diagrams PCB layouts, and a mobile app for monthly subscriptions. Do you like purple? I love purple Dave. You have great ideas Dave)

>Anthropic is building moat around theirs models with claude code, Agent SDK, containers, programmatic tool use, tool search, skills and more.

I think this is something the other big players could replicate rapidly, even simulating the exact UI, interactions, importing/exporting existing items, etc. that people are used to with claude products. I don't think this is that big of a moat in the long run. Other big players just seem to be carving up the landscape and see where they can can fit in for now, but once resource rich eyes focus on them, Anthropic's "moat" will disappear.

>It's really not that hard

It is only a couple of thousand options[0], just memorize them! It super simple, barely an inconvenience!

They must have been pretty damn confident of the results to give depressed children a placebo.

What term would you suggest instead? Agent-assisted slop?
