I think I’ve realized that GUIs, even though they have much better primitives for displaying all sorts of information and interacting with it, are also very restrictive. There’s usually only one way of doing things in a UI. You either love it or hate it. Which brings me to terminals and multiplexers. When you think about it, a terminal is basically a small GUI builder, letting you create your own environment from small, well-crafted tools that each do one thing well. So it’s no wonder people keep coming back to terminals. Quoting @mitchellh Quick Superlogical demo to end the week. This demo is just of the basic functionality, but I want to highlight just how FAST it is. There's a WHOLE lot more functionality already present and coming but I wanted to keep the demo short. But seriously, check out that speed. I'm showing the macOS app h… Related

And if you can show employers that you are not just a builder, but you are someone that can help them as these roles start to become a little bit fuzzier. I think that you can be successful in these times. Don't just be an engineer.

If you’re in a cafe and you love the music, and then realize it’s a Spotify playlist, as opposed to the owner’s personal curation of favorite songs, do you feel a little deflated? I do - and I think this is another small piece of evidence against the AI automation of art. Related

Their words
I- I can relate that if you very deeply identify that you are a programmer, that it's scary and that it's threatening because what you like and what you're really good at is now being done by a soulless or not entity. But I don't think you're just a programmer. That's a very limiting view of your craft. You are, you are still a builder.

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.
