If you're programming for the art, you can continue. Someone who enjoys painting can do so even after the camera

As you probably know, painting changed quite a bit after cameras became common. I wonder if handcrafted code will have a similar shift, becoming more "artistic" :)

It surely will.

But you have to admit it loses a certain shine in the cases where you know that what you're doing is no longer solving a problem that could be solved simpler and cheaper another way.

But understanding _how_ it solves the problem, and knowing you found the solution yourself might/will be something to strive for.

My 2 cents:

All the labs seem to do very different post training. OpenAI focuses on search. If it's set to thinking, it will search 30 websites before giving you an answer. Claude regularly doesn't search at all even for questions it obviously should. It's postraining seems more focused on "reasoning" or planning - things that would be useful in programming where the bottleneck is: just writing code without thinking how you'll integrate it later and search is mostly useless. But for non coding - day to day "what's the news with x" "How to improve my bread" "cheap tasty pizza" or even medical questions, you really just want a distillation of the internet plus some thought


The main novelty I see in openclaw is the amount of channels and how easy it is to set them up. This just has whatsapp, telegram & feishu

Doesn't it use bwrap under the hood? what's wrong with that?

Many apps require unnecessarily broad permissions with Flatpak. Unlike Android and iOS apps they weren't designed for environments with limited permissions.

> Unlike Android

My experience with android apps seems to be different. Every other app seems to be asking for contacts or calling or access to files.


You can usually deny those. If they ask for them without a good reason, that's already suspicious.

Wanna make a forecast I can hold you accountable to for 6 months out?

(Something concrete)


cursor?

from what I can tell, the people behind windsurf were at it first

oh, codeium? that was them?

Maybe github copilot then


was langchain before copilot?

I love competition


Did you give it your credit card?

Wouldn't a crypto wallet with a small amount deposited be smarter?


Nope, Kimi K2.5 is free on opencode at the moment, it was using that.

Maybe they can use 5 - 10 loc to move the classic window shell button so it's not on top of the widgets button
