Honestly your poor assessment is in all ways poorer than his poorly written creation.

Did you even have 2-3 minutes to click around his website and gave a read to his other article "Something that I used to love"?

Your type of disparaging comments give the impression of HN to others what HN totally isn't. I don't know if you wrote your comment esp. for engagement baiting.

If I sub to SuperGrok, would I be able to use it in Pi agent or in Opencode? This is not clear to me if I can. Do I get an API Key in SuperGrok?

What a great documentary! Loved the pace of the documentary and the mix of visuals. Thanks for sharing.

Could you explain how much improvement RL+fine tuning has given to Composer 2.0 over Kimi K2.5? I don't fully grasp the work Cursor model has done here and why it is difficult to achieve these results with RL.

While this has hardcoded keyboard shortcuts, this sufficiently works for me. So I thought I'd share.

I'd be happy to accept PRs to extend it.

For the commenters here: do we have something like VimR [1] for OSes other than the Mac that provides a file explorer sidebar with smaller font size (probably sans)?

This assumption breaks if you use macOS. Windows uses (or used to use) Apply button in its settings. Macintosh OSes were reactive from the start. Which means that checkboxes have immediate-ness on Macs.

As a non-Mac user I really want to know why one would prefer Homebrew on Linux.

My assumption is OS package manager would always have more packages compared to Homebrew, and I don't know if Homebrew on Linux even supports GUI packages or not.

Show HN: Telltail – Universal Clipboard for Text

ajitid — Thu, 30 Mar 2023 14:38:38 +0000

Hi folks!

Telltail [1] lets you share clipboard between your devices. If you've used or ever known about Apple's Universal Clipboard, it is quite like that. It uses Tailscale [2] to achieve this.

I must tell you that setting it up requires you to have some familiarity with the terminal (which already comes installed on your computer).

I've written a blog post on how I came about working on it and the iterative process that went behind it. You can read the post here [3].

The instructions to install Telltail can be found here [4].

It is a personal project of mine and is not affiliated to or promoted by any org. Hopefully with discussions and contributions we could add support for more OSs.

Ever tried gluing Go with either Python or JavaScript? I'm interested in learning what libraries are there to glue them and how complicated and slow they could be.
