Even as a huge Linux tinkerer I've been really pleased with Zo setting things up for me that I wouldn't have expected to get done on a server like this. I've started to experiment with installing Guix and serving Lem, and made a personal Telegram bot as an alternative interface. They really focus on keeping out of your way, and the Zo agent is quite persistent and gets things done that I didn't think was feasible.

The price is right for the specs of two hetzner boxes plus a convenient agentic web interface (I like my Cockpit, but it is honestly so nice to be able to just send a Telegram message to get a service set up or to grab a file just by speaking). I use all the LLM apps but, it's like comparing SMS vs. Telegram, it's just not the same?

I was a bit wary of adding my google accounts at first, but I've tried using it to send me daily images through Telegram and it's actually pretty dang nice!

One thing I would really like though is Whisper on Zo. Oh, maybe I should just get that set up on Telegram...

Thanks for posting erhuve!

Sadly, a third of American adults do not understand fractions. A big part of this isn't just the particulars of the educational system -- it is also caused by the way we conceive of and teach mathematics as disembodied, symbolic manipulation.

James Algebra (by Jeffrey James and William Bricken, one of the O.G. researchers in virtual reality) is an 'iconic' notation for K-12 mathematics -- it makes numbers look like what they mean.

I'm working on a mobile puzzle game to publicize this. Check out my WIP at https://house.valeriekim.ca -- though I need to get it to a self-demoing state.
