@grumpy thanks for mentioning this, the interface looks great. I'm unsure about the cashflow-model over the budget model, but I guess that's what YNAB does which everyone swears by.

@grumpy any reasons you use it over YNAB?

HN is beginning to disgust me with the AI worship. Thankfully there are some critics in the comments still, but they're in the minority.There is a fundamental element that most of the proponents are missing: the value of human beings, and value of something beyond the end product.

The best description of Mr. Beast I heard recently is that he is "ideologically vacant". Like he is truly just Doing Stuff with no awareness of the symbolism or cultural impact.

Thinking about changing my GitHub username, "makeworld-the-better-one" is long and I'm not a fan anymore. "makeworld" alone is taken of course, otherwise I would be using it. Underscores are not allowed, so I'm left with lame options like "makeworld2". Not sure where to go with this.

@mauve I'll update profile links that I know of, but repo links will redirect so I plan on being lazy with those.

Regular Gemini users: Has the software ecosystem died? Its pace of development certainly seems to have slowed. And what of the content creation, what is the pace of that?

@j3s I especially like the part about permacomputing being a successor to the free software movement. I've never thought of it in that way

The SOMA Ether is amazing. Thank you @ice for mentioning it.I just listened to several radio stations at once, using my gas line as an antenna. As I placed my fingers on the line, my body acted as a resistor in parallel and divided the voltage, dampening the audio I heard. Mind-blowing.

I've also been hearing 120 Hz everywhere, a harmonic of 60 Hz, the AC frequency here in North America. Really cool to hear the things I know.

I listened to an analog clock, and I could hear the second hand moving! But not through sound waves. What I was hearing were the EM waves emitted by the electrons briefly powering the motor that moves the second hand. I think?Wild stuff, it's amazing to hear the circuits that are hidden away all around us.
