TIL about Omarchy.

Of course it uses Hyprland. Of course the demo video on the website shows using Grok in it.

Still can't believe that choosing a Linux distribution now involves decision-making factors like "what's their take on fascism". But I guess the real problem is that such questions weren't asked for way too long before.

Urgh, I couldn't even get through the whole article, it's too disgusting. What a surprise that yet another "no politics at work"-guy turns out to support fascism!

You'll have to endlessly scroll Amazon and decide whether to buy the identical product from brand YDAKVKR or BNRTGRIV, reading ALL the fake reviews.

At least we're going to get some pretty neat looking cooling systems!

If this bubble takes off, looking forward to the heights they will go to regarding that.

Is there already a word for "an industry which has removed itself from reality and will collapse when the public's suspension of disbelief fades away"?

Calling this just "a bubble" doesn't cut it anymore, they're just peddling sci-fi ideas now. (Metaverse was a bubble, and it was stupid as hell, but at least those headsets and the legless avatars existed.)

So money moves in a circle between Cursor and AI model companies, while still generating costs far higher than what users pay. How is this going to help with anything, regarding finances.

Considering other life might also be unattractive as it could reduce the feeling of their own importance.

Can you recommend any resources on those topics?

Well you have to assume they need $29 million alone for humans doing color correction to make it less yellow

Sigh. Love how he claims it's worth it for "learning"...

We already have a thing for learning, it's called "books", and if you want to learn compiler basics, $14000 could buy you hundreds of copies of the dragon book.
