The sci-fi hand wringing is embarrassing. A huge chunk of the population is afflicted with mental health issues and the best psychitrists can seem to do is "Oh bro, wanna try some ketamine? Anti-psychotics?? Maybe some SSRIs, how about psychdelics?!" - this is a joke. Im all for more neuroscience research in every form because our contemporary understanding is embarassingly poor. This is a research tool for understanding what visual brain regions encode, not a mind-control device. Better models of brain function may eventually improve diagnosis and treatment of mental illness. Calling every neuroscience advance "Black Mirror" is not ethical insight. It saddens me the reaction so many commentors have here, it is just lazy technological illiteracy imo.
Huh, I should sue google haha. I have a screenshot of their AI overviews spewing bullshit about my main username from the query "Find jerlendds". Ive tried it again and it appears to be slightly more accurate however my old screenshot says some nonsense about how I help track down international criminal rings via my osintbuddy project. Totally not true and it feels like it painted a target on my back. Too bad I dont have the funds to take them to court in Canada
Im doing the exact same thing but Im building my Obsidian clone with Rust and gpui and primarily with Codex. So far I estimate Ive been solely vibe coding it for ~15 hours now with only one small change made by hand. Id be interested in comparing notes/our different approaches to this. Feel free to shoot me an email at jerlendds at osintbuddy dot com if you want to chat.
Beautiful work and it's always nice to see new projects in these spaces! I'm the creator of OSINTBuddy which is a somewhat similar project if you squint haha. We've just recently finished porting our web app to an electron binary (unreleased) for people who perform sensitive investigations (aka we have encryption at rest via Turso database) and collaboration features will be done via WebRTC + a signalling server.
I'm loving the approach you took to the UI! I had some similar ideas in mind and plan to build narrative reconstruction and timeline view tools too so it's really nice to see how others have done so! I'll definitely be following your work and I shared your project in the OSINTBuddy discord to hopefully get some more eyes on it :)
Lol I feel the similar, I signed an earlier version when the Manifesto was far different but since they've changed it from that I now want my name removed >:(
One of the creators is Alex (former Google Chrome Project Lead ~ https://komoroske.com/) and we spoke on a Google meet call recently. He's currently trying to hype up confidential computing which is a cool technical challenge but I have my doubts in regards to confidential compute being super feasible/realistic. I suspect crackers/hackers will always find a way in
I noticed some spam this morni g too, I didnt see any hate but the accounts were opening issues on repos with the issue content pointing to weird URLs. This happens on occasion, best to just report, ignore, and move on with life.
Lately Ive been thinking about building a desktop app with Rust and Ive started exploring the gpui library from Zed to see what its capable of. I haven't entirely decided on what the app will be but I do know I need network graphs to satiate my graph obsession so I started the `gpug` project a few days ago. It's a network graph visualization library built on top of gpui: https://github.com/jerlendds/gpug
Built this last night and fixed a bug today. It's a proof-of-concept of how to render network graphs with Zed's (https://zed.dev/blog/gpui-2-on-preview) gpui library. I plan to turn this into a more general purpose component library somewhat following the style/API of Reactflow (https://reactflow.dev) and Sigma.js (https://www.sigmajs.org/)
Some of them are simply things I want to try building for the sake of it and they already exist, some of them dont exist and are decent ideas, some are just awful
