<p>> Filesystems as a weak abstraction.<p>Is a concept the author needs to get over.<p>> The ideal would be "across my entire computer and applications, what are the recent files I have interacted with" and expand that out to include emails and Teams/Slacks and everything. I should be able to see everything going on with my machine, search through it and not care if its stored inside of Slack or iCloud or whatever. Single pane of glass.<p>Nope. This would be great <i>if it worked</i>.<p>This idea of getting rid of the file system is very old, tired and has failed. And failed. And failed.<p>…and you know apps hate? Letting you <i>out</i> of their walled gardens.<p>> Microsoft tried it, people didn't like it,<p>Yup.<p>> but I think the concept makes sense.<p>Nope.<p>You’re going to have to do better than trying this again.<p>Something something local LLM? Mm.<p>It’s a Hard Problem. The kind of problem that random engineers look at and go “doesn’t seem that hard, I could do that in a weekend”.<p>…<p>> In the interest of full disclosure I think this is gonna take many weekends of work to even get a functional demo running. So I'll do my best, but be patient.<p>Okay, to be fair, the author did acknowledge that it’s a lot of work and it’s hard; and I look forward to seeing the result, because experiments in this space are interesting, the <i>idea</i> of a visual tmux maybe has some legs…<p>…but I think this project is too ambitious to succeed.<p>Not being the default isn't what stops these concept desktops from taking off; it’s that people don’t like them.<p>No file system, you just get “tasks” and an LLM to pray to and hope you get your data from?<p>:/ I don’t think it’ll fly.</p>

<p>Seems irrelevant? Of <i>course</i> we don’t use data for training.<p>…trust me bro.<p>It’s obviously easier to believe when they’re not <i>training models</i>.<p>Eh, anyway this whole thing is just an ad:<p>> Looking to take Ember-1 one step further, and optimize it for your use case? We are also launching training support for Ember-1, enabling enterprises to build customized, token-efficient models tailored to their needs with their own data. The future of open models is specialized models trained on your specific workload.<p>Probably, I guess, fancy serverless infrastructure actually makes virtually no difference to hosting really large models that people want to use, and “just” being an inference provider for open weight models turns out to have no moat.<p>So this is a bit of a pivot to “use our training infrastructure too…!” imo.<p>Pivot? Sure. Go them. Not what I signed up for though. /shrug</p>

<p>> It does imply that you’re blind to all the other aspects of games that bring people enjoyment.<p>Like what?<p>I’m not making a sweeping generalisation here about how people play games. We’re talking about chrono cross.<p>For a story driven JRPG like CT / CC specifically, if you don’t care about the characters or story, there is no reason to achieve any goal in the game.<p>I’m not so proud I can’t admit to being wrong; but in a JRPG there is <i>no game</i> without the character driven story. If you imagine replacing Kid and Serge with cardboard cutouts labeled A-san and B-san, what are you enjoying about the game?</p>

<p>You can downvote the parent post all you like, but…<p>> Personally I don't care much about stories in games<p>I cant relate to this.<p>Chrono trigger is a game I love because of the great story.<p>If you’re playing rpgs and you don't care about the story or characters…<p>I have no idea. Its like reading a book and saying you don't enjoy the story; you're what, just there for the physical motion of turning the pages?<p>No idea. Chrono cross left no impression on me.

<p>I feel like this is the same black hole as small local models.<p>Things people want to be awesome and true, and things that are actually awesome and true don't intersect the way people want them to.<p>…so if there <i>was</i> an easy way to do provably correct AI code, it <i>would</i> be nice.<p>…but I’d also like a frontier that runs on my raspberry pi and a cheap fully autonomous self driving car that just uses a single cell phone camera.<p>Unfortunately wanting those doesn't make them exist; and people telling you they do exist usually are either a) uninformed, or b) selling something.</p>

<p>My opinion is that it is pretty clear that they’re not going to do that.<p>> The rules governing the prizes describe the process for evaluating what has been achieved and for assigning credit.

<p>Is sol better?<p>Yes. Categorically. Anyone who tells you otherwise and that luna is “just as good” does not know what they are talking about.<p>Going from sol to luna is a downgrade.<p>It is not a question, it is a fact.<p>> Is sol actually worth the extra cost?<p>Is a question only you can answer, because it has no generic answer.<p>Right now, for me, being <i>able</i> to use sol is worth the cost, but using it <i>all the time</i> is not.<p>I’m sure going from using it to using luna feels rubbish; but there are realities about costs you have to face sooner or later.<p>Maybe like… give your team credits and make them pick the right tool for the job; and if they burn their credits on sol in 20 minutes, well, tough luck buddy, looks like you're coding by hand for the rest of the month.<p>Team will quickly shift.

<p>What even is this feature?<p>You can’t just “spin Claude up in slack”; it can’t magically just connect to GitHub and your code.<p>I presume this feature <i>basically</i> is like… if you’re <i>already</i> using your agents in cloud hosted runtimes, then you can connect to those agents <i>like you already are</i>, but via slack.<p>…<p>Did I misunderstand?<p>This seems like a non feature; if you’re bring to want it, you can’t have it because you have to setup Complicated External System, and if you’re already using cloud hosted agents, you’re already using it (eg. Claude tag or whatever).<p>So it’s what… a diff viewer in slack?

<p>I work on mobile native applications.<p>Without an active harness (eg.

incapable</i> of running parallel unsupervised mobile app feature development.<p>That is my personal, first hand experience working in a team in this space.<p>What you are (I guess?) experiencing is user-in-the-loop light touch LLM development where you can 80% most tasks quite quickly (much faster than without assistance!) with a small number of human developers working on largely unrelated features and manually verifying they are correct and manually fixing the platform specific issues you encounter.<p>Maintaining a strong appium end-to-end test suite is still <i>extremely challenging</i> with notifications and maps.<p>Honestly, it blows my mind you could even being to claim that of all things, <i>native apps</i> using obscure languages like swift are suitable for this, compared to the much much easier path of web + react.<p>You might say “yeah yeah, but one month? Come on!”<p>…but have you actually seen how much code fabel can write in a month?<p>Its <i>a lot</i>.<p>So sure, you say, work at a slower pace. Don't just endlessly run a frontier model in unsupervised feature development mode.<p>Yes… you see, thats the point. Thats what the op is saying.<p>Move more slowly, and you can avoid building a spaghetti castle (ok sure! If you dont wanna, maybe don't retype every character by hand, but the <i>point</i> of that practice is not upping your wpm typing speed. :p It is to take the time to think, design and collaborate, not rush rush rush)</p>
