I have something similar, but it's a shell command which writes the command into a file then runs `print -z "$(cat /tmp/command.txt)"`, which prints the command directly to the command line input, so there's no copy paste step needed, it's just ready for me to hit enter (or adjust as needed). It's been wonderful!

This is such a breath of fresh air. I feel like I'm back on Club Penguin!

Can you speak to the total api costs to create one such game? Not looking for exact numbers but I'm curious if to create, say, that snowboarding game, it cost closer to $5, $50, or $500 in usage.

Sometimes your system doesn’t have a graphical session, like a raspberry pi with no x server running, or a cloud compute instance I’m ssh’ed into, or a docker image running on my laptop. Sometimes your system doesn’t have a (particularly usable) text system, like a work computer that disables the terminal or a family member’s MacBook who doesn’t have the time or space to install XCode terminal utilities to be able to use things like brew install.

My point is that it’s not a given that having one means you have the other.

TUIs are wonderful for the first case.

Probably the Mandela effect!

Processes by default get stdin and stdout. If you run a command interactively from your tty, the tty shows your stdout and collects stdin from you to pass to the process. But nothing about Unix prevents you from hooking something else up to stdin and stdout. As another commenter said, you could use sockets and have a completely generic input and output stream which an arbitrary tool could read and write to. Or you could spin up a websocket server that spawns the process and converts between websocket messages and stdin/stdout bytes. Or http requests and long polled responses. Or read input from a speech to text stream and push output into a text to speech stream.

I feel like OP’s main gripe is that persistent interactive sessions should be supported without a third party tool like tmux or screen or zellij, but one of the main strengths of Unix is that it provides platform building blocks which can be composed to create whatever experience you’re looking for.

The contract ends in 2083 (58 years), which even by conservative estimates is well after cars will be able to self-park

Do you have any repository of apps that support that? I’d love to browse them!

Hm, I'm quite skeptical about this claim.

I also like Perplexity’s 3/day limit! If I use them up (which I almost never do) I can just refresh the next day

When I load the all page, I get an alert that just says "1", which feels like it's probably a successful XSS attack. Given that, I can't justify putting my credit card number directly into the site. If it took Paypal, Apple Pay, or similar I would absolutely give it a try for a few months.

Screenshot of the alert (imgur marked it as nsfw because it includes a thumbnail of a post that is mildly nsfw): https://imgur.com/a/TmwO1jg

This doesn’t make sense to me. If one clause says another clause can be removed, then doesn’t that create a contradiction where legally it’s unclear which of the two clauses “wins” the fight - the one adding additional restrictions or the one removing that clause?

I’m trying to build more of an intuition around distributed systems. I’ve read DDIA and worked professionally on some very large systems, but I’m wondering what resources are good for getting more on the pulse of what the latest best practices and cutting edge technologies are. Your comment sounds like you have that context so any advice for folks like me?

> better to trust that system than to take his word as truth.

What? Why would that be better? Absent more information I'd rather assume innocence until proven guilty.

This begs the question, do licenses have licenses?
