Agree. Also they say it’s not personally identifiable if they know everything about you but associates it as anonymously. Basically renaming you to random artifact. Fees La like major loophole. That’s why I don’t like chrome.

Saying that I think I am already hooked on free and/or easy to search etc etc BS. Basically take my data for convenience and some advanced tech. Honestly feels like addiction.


Resonates well with me. I was thinking same lately as many other comments.

Random stranger on Reddit mentioned - *The art of frugal hedonism* https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/216874949

This book is indeed eye opener. Though I am too deep to turn around quickly without crashing I am well on may way and there is many more miles to go. Hoping to take few of my friends with me too.


Duckduckgo browser is highly rated than Firefox in Apple Store. Has anyone tried it? Is it really better than Firefox?

Unfortunately apply doesn’t allow ublock in Firefox like android.

PS this comment is with reference to Apple Store and policies discussion in one of the threads


I moved from Chrome to Firefox for this.

And found out Firefox is much better browser than Chrome anyway. Moved due to post here as well. Can’t find the post easily to link here for credit.


Wanted to move to Firefox, but it doesn't have "save page as app". Huge blocker for me unfortunately (as I categorically refuse to have GMail in one of my many tabs of one of my many browser windows).


This is great. Maybe having total or stats/tools for comparison will be awesome plus.

Set input and output and check cost.


There are many suggestions already let me through in one more: Affine : https://affine.pro/

You can self host too if you like. Not all features as Notion but comes very close. Seems more private too compared to Notion.

I am also looking for more private and secure Notion alternatives. My company doesn’t allow using Notion.

I like templates, tasks, scrum etc. which I use for personal use. But I am reluctant on saving any personal information in it.


I want #3 be able to connect NVIDIA GPU with Apple Silicon and run CUDA. Take advantage of apple silicon + unified memory + GPU + CUDA with PyTorch, JAX or TensorFlow.

Haven’t really explored MLX so can’t speak about it.


Nvidia already has unified memory on Grace Blackwell etc.

I guess M5 Blackwell could be better, but there are business and technical barriers to making that happen.


I meant Apple ecosystem does not support NVIDIA GPUs anymore. NVIDIA itself with CUDA Support DMA.


Genuinely curious for the value add with Claude code here. Some perspective and/or data is appreciated.


I love this. I also want to dabble into loving things to rust!

Here I want to call out zellij. Zellij is rust based terminal multiplexer.

I am user not creator. I love everything rust and finding and migrating to rust based solutions where feasible.


Just curious. I'm a Rust developer. But I don't see myself discriminating between tools written in C, C++, Rust, Zig, etc. They all seem easy to install and use, as long as they're reasonably bugfree. Scripting languages are slightly different as they require me to maintain their respective interpreters and tools on my system. What difference do you see between applications written in Rust and those written in other compiled languages?


I agree the underlying technology doesn’t ultimately matter, but as user of a lot of fairly modern rust-based cli tools there definitely is something in the air worth mentioning.

I suspect it’s a couple of things. A new generation of programmers are hitting the scene, wanting to do things in new ways. Not inherently good or bad, but the new tools sure usually are at least very _pretty_, and have a lot of affordances and usability improvements over the ancient tools that can never be changed for the sake of compatibility. Rust and Go make this nicer, and are the languages de jour with good cli ecosystems and performance characteristics around them.

I genuinely do like most of my replacements. ripgrep for grep, eza for ls, zoxide for cd, fd for find, podman for docker, and a few more. Developer tooling is a rich and interesting space to be in, but there’s plenty of bandwagons I’m not getting on, like this or zellij for tmux, or jj for git.


> zoxide for cd

i'm sorry WHAT


Zoxide isn't a replacement for cd, but it is a wrapper for cd. It's the alternative for OG "z" (written in Bash I believe) and autojump (python) that were here for 20 years or so.

Basically, when tou type "cd some/subdir", these tools remember the frequency/recency of durectories you cd into, so at some point you can type "z sub" and they teleport you to "some/subdir" no matter what's your current working dir.

I love it and use it daily. Zoxide just has some nicer features than the alternatives (and maybe it's faster).


Apparently it is a thing.

Well I never.


Build Systems for C(++) are a mess, no package manager often means git submodules. Whereas Rust is actually easy, just requiring an `cargo install`. Don't know about Zig though Zig hasn't really taken of just yet imo.


What @tkcranny said. They are better usability now and more sensible defaults. I also find them marginally faster.

I also using them as way of supporting them. Tmux is great and I have used for years. Zellij is not there yet but does some things better than tmux too.


I really thought it’s real. I should really ask more questions. It will be cool product one day. Power companies will never let something like this come out.
