oooh this looks nice - a handy little skill to generate animated presentational videos Quoting @CalvinGrunewald Sharing a fun new skill/tool I built that helps me make videos for a variety of purposes.

Just woke up from a dream where I ordered a rum and coke at a bar and they asked what kind of ice I wanted, then showed me a menu with 60 different kinds of ice. Most were different shapes but some had flavours. I chose mint and my drink became mintier over time. Anyway good morning Related

This is huge! You all know I'm a huge Cloud Agents fan. Even joined the team! :) For the past months or so, I rarely opened any localhost agent. This new feature is especially very important and useful for workloads that were hard to support with custom environments only. Give it a try. Quoting @cursor_ai You can now run Cursor cloud agents on your infrastructure, including pools of machines that automatically scale with demand. This lets you give agents access to internal services or specialized hardware, while the agent loop stays in Cursor. Related

I use dictation tools like "Handy" that use local models to turn speech to text. I've got a fork/PR that adds screen annotation so you can say things like "help me understand 'this' or move 'this' to the left" and it'll put both text+annotation into agents wth a single key. Related

If this were $200 I'd complain, but not for $25. For that, it's a neat little box that maybe more people could contribute to, to make it the most handy way to jack in from a crash cart.

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.
