Nǐ hăo, xìe xìe Yuntian!
I read the readme and paper but haven’t played around much yet. I find this fascinating and I don’t care much about poor “experience” because intuitively I feel this idea couldn’t produce something as reliable and flexible as a real OS anyway. I see you talked about inability to install new software and my reaction was “well obviously”, because surely it will be at least as limited as the training data, while a real OS provides lots of software of great complexity which is seldom used.
Could you talk about your hopes for the future on this project? What are your thoughts on having a more simplified interface which could combine inputs in a more abstract way, or are you only interested in simulating a traditional OS?
Thanks again.
PS the waiting time while firefox “loads” made me laugh. I presume this is also simulated.

It certainly is a mainstay. A yearly treat which children love. In Ireland I was taught this song in school: https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=bhebvq0O4GY
(and I still remember all the words)
The point you’re making is ridiculous though, because what Isaak has done is clearly an unusual accomplishment. You’re actually just making excuses for yourself, being too old to have the motivation. It’s a less helpful explanation than just plain curiosity - and that’s available to all age groups.
I agree. In the first example, you would assume the action completed even if you missed the toast. But in case you did notice it, that gives you a confirmation. Suboptimal? Maybe.
But the proposed solution is clearly worse, unless the loading circle turns into a tick to show completion
I’ve supported enterprise software for various big companies and I can tell you that most decision makers for DCs agree with this sentiment.
EMC had a system called Target Code which was typically the last patch in the second-last family. But only after it had been in use for some months and/or percentage of customer install base. It was common sense and customers loved it. You don’t want your storage to go down for unexpected changes.
Dell tried to change that to “latest is target” and customers weren’t convinced. Account managers sheepishly carried on an imitation of the old better system. Somehow from a PR point of view, it’s easier to cause new problems than let the known ones occur.
I have been using Joplin for a couple of years, first for work and then for everything else.
I love that it’s formatted, but it’s also just text. I normally leave it in markdown mode and edit that directly (learn the syntax, it’s easy). To paste into email, documents etc, put it to display mode and it’ll paste html. Good.
@cimnine The key feature for me is global search (ctrl/cmd+p) but it doesn’t work well enough!!
1. it doesn’t favour exact matches and
2. it doesn’t jump to the match.
I use vi-mode if that’s important.
Overall it’s excellent IMO. There are clients for all major platforms.
