He said "enterprises" not "competent programmers".

I'm using fman, which is like a lightweight graphical alternative to mc.

I recently had to switch to macos for work and Jesus Christ is this not the pinnacle of engineering. Sure, I'm accustomed to my self configured Linux desktop but boy is Mac OS slow to use and hard to configure. And so keyboard unfriendly.

You hopefully know thats not true. But it's a matter of quality goals. Need absolute robustness? Prioritize it and build it. Need speed and be first to market? Prioritize and build it. You can do both in an agile way. Many would argue that you won't be as fast in a non-agile way. There is no bullet point in the agile manifest saying to build unreliable software.

May be I don't understand but I can see that I press a short cut and can connect via ssh, right?

Either you included your own ssh client (battery included and such) and you'll forever be chasing the features your customers are missing from their client or you just launch the standard ssh client (or psql or whatever) but then, what's the benefit as opposed to some shell configuration?

Genuinely asking, maybe I missed it from the first glance or maybe you could include that on the front page..

New comment by buster in "Ensu – Ente’s Local LLM app"

buster — Wed, 25 Mar 2026 17:35:29 +0000

I don't understand all the hate about ente, to be honest. Ente seems to try to solve the big tech lock in with their apps. Personally, i'm a very happy Ente Photos user, so what's the problem with Ensu? It's available on desktops and mobile, it's an app trying to give all a little bit more privacy and freedom and yet most comments are just hating on it. If you can vibe code Ensu in a week end, please do. Make a better clone if you want to, but don't hate on someone for their work for stupid reasons.

What do you when you say defunct photos platform?

Keep in mind that kagi offers a wide range of models, not just one. I wouldn't want to have multiple subscriptions (for chatgpt, anthropic, gemini etc.)

As far as I know sqlite has such tests and probably others.

New comment by buster in "Ex-GitHub CEO launches a new developer platform for AI agents"

buster — Wed, 11 Feb 2026 06:03:00 +0000

But that's not what is in the whole context. The whole context contains a lot of noise and false "thoughts". What the AI needs to do is to document the software project in an efficient manner without duplication. That's not what this tool is doing. I question the value in storing all the crap in git.

May be the point is, that the one engineer replaces 10 engineers by using the dark factory which by definition doesn't need humans.

That or the Kagi Browser... Waiting for a Linux release.

Sounds amazing, but i would rather be able to run the database locally and use the same in dev as in production. Is this possible?

New comment by buster in "Claude Code's DX is too good. And that's a problem"

buster — Sun, 14 Dec 2025 16:47:56 +0000

I've not used Claude Claude yet, but why would it be bad if it gains features that people use? Did people ever complain about Photoshop to have too many features demanding some cognitive load? Excel? Practically every IDE out there? There is a reason people use those tools instead of the plain text editor or paint. It's for power users and people will become power users of AI as well. Some will forever stick to chatgpt and some will use an ever increasing ecosystem of tools.

Isn't it the same wisdom as to avoid cyclic dependencies?

buster — Wed, 10 Dec 2025 06:54:10 +0000

I don't know I tend to either come across new tools written in Rust, JavaScript or Python but relatively low amount of C. The times I see some "cargo install xyz" in a git repo of some new tool is definitely noticeable.
