It's mostly doing stuff around my app. I have it connected to my google search console, analytics, paddle, Microsoft partner center, etc.

I prompted it to give me a 1 liner description of the current jobs:

Blog production — 05:00 UTC daily: writes new post drafts into growth/blog-drafts/ and pings you; never publishes.

Blog draft status checks — every 2h: polls the dev blog-drafts API for review/approval status on the 7 pending drafts; silent unless something changes.

Reply opportunity scan — 14:00 UTC daily: finds recent Reddit/HN/X/forum threads where LumoTray genuinely fits, writes a report with links.

SEO opportunity research — 00:30 UTC daily: keyword and content-gap research report.

Analytics optimization — Tue + Fri, 11:00 UTC: GA4 + Search Console + Partner Center read, then an actions report.

Weekly strategy review — Sunday, 18:00 UTC: aggregates the week and sets the next-week plan.

Heartbeat — every ~30 min: my own check-in lane (currently mostly skipping on an empty heartbeat file).

Skill collection review — weekly: housekeeping on the skill catalogue.

I'm thinking they're merely riding the free publicity wave. Who, in their right mind, would contribute to the super narrow definition of linux desktop preached by DHH?

Was "being agentic" and "being keyboard shortcut oriented" the big gaps preventing the adoption of linux on desktop?

I honestly fail to see why everybody is so convinced that the linux desktop will be "saved" by Omarchy, a set of scripts specifically designed to mostly satisfy a narrow slice of power users and developers.

Also, sponsoring a multi-millionaire's AI generated side project to the sum of many millions of dollars instead of contributing to the dozens or hundreds of thankless developers that have built and maintained most of the current linux ecosystem is pretty disgusting imho.

Step 1: exterminate all humans

They're apparently evolving slower than most SOTA models but "slow and steady wins the race" is probably still a thing.

And since Google doesn't depend exclusively on AI models, they can probably afford to "wait and see" where all this craze is heading.

This is very likely to be true, even though I do know it's pretty awesome and I'm actually often surprised by what can be done in a browser these days, I'm definitely not that much up to date with all the latest tech.

And sorry, yes I somehow missed that you had terminals on the native list, my bad.

What I'm really keen on is better auto-reasoning so I don't have to constantly have the constant inner debate on which reasoning effort to pick for each task.

I seriously hate the none-low-medium-high-xhigh-max-ultra etc that we have now, with companies frequently recommending different ones on each new model release, etc.

It's apparently called Adaptive Test-Time Compute or Dynamic Test-Time Compute and companies are apparently working on it (according to some LLM :shrug:)

I don't see it making much sense to bundle it. I'm sure a LOT of LLM prompts are related with docs, excels, powerpoints etc, etc but don't really see it worth it for it to be bundled on the codex app from the get go, because otherwise, why not also install dozens of other apps?

Or do you currently still specifically choose to use some web based app for most of what you've "discarded"? Are your 3d editors, sound editors, (or even players), image editors or compression/backup apps webviews? IDEs? Etc?

How about password managers? That's a big (stupid) one people use on web apps for some reason..

Because most "professionals" in areas that need these things seldom use web apps. Toy apps? MVPs? Toy marketing or social stuff? Toy video editors for the TikTok generation? Sure. But that's mostly for amateurish usage, at least for now.

Even terminals.. what do you use in webviews that's better than iterm, putty, ghostty, etc?

Like it or not, and as awesome as browsers and webviews have become, there's still a lot of performance left on the table there.

That's just imho of course, just finding it weird people being pro-web apps on hn, that used to be very pro native and pro performance :shrug:

Surely that was a rushed reply(?). How about regular system utilities? Video/audio editors? IDE's? Debuggers? Image/3D editors? Compressor/decompressors? Terminal emulators? And so much more stuff.

Sure, many of these already have "web" versions but there's still a lot of apps that benefit greatly from being native and not go through another browser/webview/node instance.

Having Nvidia behind HF will now probably have a bunch of litigious entities salivating to sue them for not only allowing, but also distributing uncensored AI models that will then be used for deepfakes, porn, spam, scam, hacking, etc.

Sure that could have also been done to HF before, but I'm thinking Nvidia is a much juicier target.

Should also now be much easier for the government to just eventually force NVidia to restrict access to Chinese open models seeing as it will now become an American company that needs to obey to American law and we all know how American AI companies are lobbying for exactly that.

A system where the employer pays a full decent wage to their workers and avoids having employees complain and insult customers because they didn't tip some random percentage number is the better system. Prove me wrong.

Extremist capitalism is still extremism.

My app LumoTray is now available for macOS.

LumoTray is a multi-monitor wallpaper, screensaver and lockscreen manager with a custom menu builder and hot-corners implementation.

I've been developing the Windows version for a few years now and decided to try and figure out if something similar could be done on macOS.

It turned out much better than what I was expecting and has achieved pretty much feature and UI parity with the Windows version.

That being said, since I do not have access to many Macs (or different macOS versions) it's being released as Beta until there is more real world usage.

More info and download links for both the macOS and Windows versions at https://lumotray.com

Any feedback is welcome.

Cheers!

The scary bit, imho, is that even without those, a "dumb" LLM can still do a lot of damage by just blindly following prompts without a notion for how it affects the "real world".

If a flock of flamingos or geese are doing a low pass it's possible they get shredded by them.

If Godzilla tries to get out of the water near them it's possible it gets hit in the head. Also he may destroy them since Godzilla is, as we all know, a nuclear energy proponent.
