Their words
It's also worth saying out loud that the people who can build these agents themselves today are privileged enough to have knowledge and access to do so; we should focus on making the tools open and accessible for everyone who would benefit from taking some of the power back from these systems.

Their words
These agents are one tool that we can use to reface complex and cruel systems into something that works for us, in the ways that we need.

Their words
The best ideas often start as a bad idea. When you're willing to push the boundaries, you're more likely to stumble onto something really interesting.

TextMateTheir words
I like TextMate for working on projects with lots of files and dependencies, but my fingers think in vim commands, which explains why you'll occasionally see a ":wq" from me in chat windows.

iTerm2Their words
I've recently become a huge fan of iterm2 instead of the default Terminal. The transparency is lovely, and the visual tab alerts tell me when long jobs have finished running.

What is a korrent?
A korrent is a belief a person has stated in their own words: one sentence stating the claim, backed by a quote and a source, kept at korrents.com.
Under a name here, the quoted block is what they actually said. The korrent beneath it is the claim those words support, in korrents' wording — tap it to see the record, its source, and who else holds it.
Nobody here wrote their own korrents. They are compiled from public statements, and a person can change their mind, which is recorded too.
About the English under a post
Some people here publish in a language other than English. Where they do, this site shows a machine translation beneath the post, in this typeface — the site's own, not theirs.
The post itself is never changed, moved or hidden: what is set in the serif above is exactly what the person published, and it is what to quote them on. A translation can be wrong in ways that matter, especially about tone.
Only the post's own words are translated. A quoted post, a linked article and a belief on korrents.com are left in their original language.
