   They fear the sand in the East.
I gotta use this in a book, this sounds great.

This is a damn good project. Makes me want to make headway into an idea I've had for quite some time P2P search...we'll see.

Might be time to fire up Sublime Text again.

The only thing I miss from switching to a Casio

Doing this in my early 20s helped me out of a depression.

The perspective shift is massive.


From the GitHub page:

    This is not a traditional computer operating system. We use the term "operating system" in two senses:

    - An operating system for the company to be productive with AI, in a way that is safe, so that the security team can sleep at night.
    - An operating system for AI workloads, analogous to the sense in which a traditional operating system manages compute workloads.

Wow this is really poor justification for its name, the folks at cloudflare really should not be overloading the term "Operating System" pointlessly like this.

They even put it in quotes, because they know what they did.

Maybe just take out the word "traditional" and be honest: "This is not an operating system. We're redefining the term because it is convenient for marketing."


It is standard English writing style to quote words you are talking about.

It looks to me like they just wanted to distinguish their product from other AI agents/sandboxes, so they called it an OS to make it sound bigger and better.

Nah, it's just the current lingo in the AI world. Another one they will use is "brain." As far as I can tell "brain" and "OS" are interchangeable. :(

It's awful naming if they have to explain it.

the people criticizing the vibecoded name knows what they meant, it is just not correct. It is the same as vegan meat.

Excluding vegetables from what convey “meat” was also not correct around 1300-1500. Definitions changes with usage and only time will tell the future of vegan steaks, meats, milks, sauvages, butters and other parties.

> food, nourishment, sustenance

> Narrower sense of "flesh of warm-blooded animals killed and used as food" is attested from c. 1300

Damn, this is a pretty big deal!

Can you explain why you think this is a big deal?

What particular feature/capability made you think this?

I do not disagree but i am curios. Lets have a discussion instead of just throwing feel good vibes around...


I host a matrix server and have three friends in it. One or all of them being unable to decrypt messages happens every few months and there’s no easy way to learn WHY do I reboot the server.

Annoying, but the other chat apps have trade-offs I don’t care for.


I've hosted my own synapse since 2019, maybe even earlier. Its the same virtualized instance, all I've ever done is update it. Never had to reboot it other than due to updates.

Nothing in any logs?


The unfortunate surprise with self-hosting Matrix is that Element X requires sliding sync and Element X cannot be installed on macOS if you have System Integrity turned off (I assume they store the keys in the Secure Enclave or something).

Conduit gained support for SS fairly recently so that’s good.

For a decent client, I’d recommend Cinny. There’s currently a fork of Cinny in development but it doesn’t work with my self-hosted server right now.


Element Desktop is the element desktop client (doesn't officially have sliding sync yet)

It's been a decade plus and new browsers have come out in that time.


New browser engines have not
