There isn't really any one "text file" though, the kernel looks for the first two bytes to match what "#!" corresponds to in ASCII.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=J8nblo6BawU is some great watching on how "Plain text isn't that simple"


The <title> on this page baited me for a second

pool.ntp.org dns resolution and any servers that they control, presumably


The ntp pool is actually independently run and funded and has nothing to do with the NTPd implementation nor the NTP Foundation, other than them allowing the pool to use that DNS name.

Currently working as a Senior DevOps Engineer / somewhat of a generalist.

I've been very interested in the LLM space for a long time, and I'm looking to make a move to a position where I work more as a generalist, and work on some cool LLM / agentic projects.

In the LLM space I'm currently working on a general "What's the best chat app you can make if you don't care how much you spend on inference", and I'm hoping to find a company that's doing something vaguely along those lines.

My preference is for small companies (<10 people)


> Unless, of course, you count the AI algorithms that TikTok uses to drive engagement, which in turn can cause social contagion...

I have noticed that TikTok can detect a depressive episode within ~a day of it starting (for me), as it always starts sending me way more self harm related content


Are you quite certain the depressive episode developed organically and Tiktok reacted to it? Maybe the algorithm started subtly on that path two days before you noticed the episode and you only realize once it starts showing self-harm content?


Hmm, that's quite possible (and concerning to think about)

It had been showing me depressive content for days / weeks beforehand, during the start of the episode, however the sh content only started (Or I only noticed it) a few hours after I had a relapse, so the timing was rather uncanny


https://github.com/mediar-ai/screenpipe is promising, however it has some issues with my setup. I'm personally just dumping all the data with ffmpeg + x11grab, will figure out what I want to do with it later


Windows & macos only though. "linux support coming soon" has been on that website forever.


That's for the fancy GUI. Basic "capture and dump to disk" is supported on Linux with the cli version


The author explicitly notes

> The Swift implementation was indeed written by ChatGPT, and it got it right first time, with just the prompt “Implement leftpad in Swift”. However: Swift is the only language I know where an implementation that does what I wanted it to do is that simple.


uvx / uv tool works great for that.

You can `uv tool install your_package`, add a dir to your PATH, and then you can launch the tool appropriately, with it installed in its own venv


I've been wanting to do that. I'm not sure of the status of remote display forwarding for wayland, but worst case you can run postmarketos on your device, then `ssh -X yourhost weston` to start a weston compositor which displays over X, and then run waydroid inside there.

The bulkiness of having a powerbank + rpi with you could get a little challenging to deal with


Hey I like your approach too but it seems that there are some subtle differences in our approaches

I mean that I take a screen and a esp32 or any microcontroller like raspberry pi and create a modular phone for just enough to boot from a device in my backpack lets say

And what you are saying is to take an already working phone and then running postmarketos on it to then connect to a host

Theoretically... (yes?) Postmarketos is a linux but their support is finnicky from what I know... like it scares me or makes me think I need a really specific phone which might cost a lot of sorts or comparatively more than say my modular approach

Everything else sure, they are the same.

I believe that the microcontroller approach isntead of postmarketos can be better because of more freedom of the amount of Os supported but that isn't that big of a deal

just searched and somebody has created something very similar to my ideal https://hackaday.com/2023/08/03/open-source-cell-phone-based...

just plug in a ssh server from raspberry pi of sorts and a wifi card to connect them of sorts :)

Now If you are wanting to do it, Do you want to contribute together? I will send you a mail after which we can talk on something like signal or feel free to message me on signal and anything else really!

If I can be honest, I want to hack around with my kaechoda 100 which worked with 32 mb... like it never lagged in 32 mb and my 1 gig android stutters and I definitely want to figure out what OS does kaechoda use that its so so fast and actually good-enough as well

Like anyways, I will message ya and if anybody is an expert in embedded, please also contact me if someone else is also interested like you! I genuinely want to make this a reality and write more about it :p

have a nice day and I will send you a mail to your gmail!


Have you looked at using AG-UI?

I'm working on https://github.com/theblazehen/react-ag-ui which implements the ag-ui protocol, however your solution looks significantly more polished. I'd be interested in potential collaboration,
