Sadly, SSGs can’t make money. Nor should they, because they are simple and sort of the whole point is to be simple and not require complicated resources to build or host.

I wish them the best.


e.g. you can't afford to build your own Drupal from scratch but you can afford to build an SSG from scratch and it may even be simpler than customizing an existing SSG from scratch and dodging the WTF.

This has been the case since early March, right? I bought a base mini on march 3rd and it took 4 weeks to arrive. My friend tried to buy one last week and had a may delivery date.

It would be interesting to see if this is getting worse or better.


Because the trial may take 5 years and consume lots of resources.

If they’ll be pardoned anyway, why?


Do you not use git branches? Your use case was why git was made.

I do use git branches, but they solve isolation, which isn't my pain point with git.

When I'm using agents to code, I don't want to have to stop what I'm doing and commit known-good state to the repo every few minutes.

jj just snapshots everything automatically, so I know I've captured that state, and I can look back and curate it all after the fact.

It's like the shift from manually saving Word documents to autosave, but instead of forcing it with git, I can use JJ which has been intentionally designed for that workflow.


Why not just ask your agent to check in before every change? And then squish before you push or share. Works great for me and easier than convincing coworker to switch off git.

I thought git didn’t allow companies to use git in their name any more and grandfathered in girhub, gitlab, etc. How did this company get a trademark.

Also, I don’t think I would use this and the problems they describe aren’t really things I care much about.

I wish them the best, but $17m on a devtools company that thinks they are replacing git is going to be rough going.


Getting it is not the hard part. Keeping it in light of an adversarial, litigious contender is.

How much easier is it to ask an app than to ask google?

He’s part of the accelerationist crowd - interesting to see that his hype fuelled posts are pretty tame now.

Months ago he was blabbering on about AGI and peddling the marketing Sam et al want people to fall for.

And indeed - yes we have a new interface? So what. The search cost wasn’t that high - the cost with immense magnitude is reading, absorbing the information and then acting on it.

Also this bozo fails to realise once we are on this path, we go down the path to a hyper centralised internet with an inevitable blocking of vpns.


I must really have captured somebody’s attention because I got farms now creating accounts just to respond to me which is fucking crazy but hey here we are

Well it would appear a lot easier given how people are reacting right now

As the OP indicated all of this information has always been accessible if you had the energy to go hunt it down


Much easier, not sure how this is even a question. Asking Google (if you're not just reading its own AI overview) requires reading through sources which may be better or more poorly written and more or less reliable. Those of us recreationally sitting here on a text-based platform with links to dense articles are atypical; most people don't enjoy and aren't particularly good at reading a bunch of stuff. If you ask AI you just get a clear, concrete answer.

I read the anarchist cookbook 40 years ago that had similar info.

I think the info has been available for many years and the thing stopping terrorists wasn’t info.

Good luck on being on the list of people using chatgpt and claude to make neurotoxins ;)

I assume anthropic and ooenai are selling prompt logs to the fbi and other countries’ law enforcement for data mining.


I bought it a few years ago before the new book deal and the name is Marion Wheeler.

I believe it was self published back then. Although it’s a beautiful hard cover that was only like $14 on amazon. I found it funny that it’s one of my favorite recent hardcovers and is cheaper and self published.


Check out the screen time log for fresh parents.

I remember the first few months being so crazy. Feedings every two hours, and each feeding took an hour.

But still time for naps, short walks, etc. part of the survival was to work in little microbreaks when the baby was sleeping.


Huge difference between constantly being in passive alert mode waiting for the kid to wake up and cry their heart out, and proper uninterrupted “I know have x minutes for myself, no matter what” time.

> being in passive alert mode

AH, MANY THANKS! That was the wording I was actually looking for when our twins arrived - I couldnt even sit down to read a printed newspaper article with 2 pages....


Yeah it's awful huh. People think you get time when the kid sleeps but really it's just.. the worst :-)

Sure thing my kids were cute when they were small but I'm pretty glad they're bigger now!


I've never read as much on my kindle as when my son was born. I didn't want to use my phone so any micro break was spent reading. Much harder to do now that my son is 4 years old, I'm less sleep deprived but there's less opportunities for micro breaks when I'm with him.

And it sounds like that will require additional fees.
