sometimes I think about how much more productive I'd be if I had a code editor
that let me draw arrows and smiley faces and such alongside the code. Or if I
could position things strangely, like two functions side-by-side with boxes
drawn around them. Or diagrams or flowcharts or graphs or...
something that would output to raw txt format, but would present itself as an
image that could be edited.

they're farther on the circuit-board from their host and their reception at
the processing section has to be gated such that they all enter to be
processed at once.

HoI4 players beware:
if you send any convoys in the modern age, you must control the entire ocean.
this is easier than you'd expect with modern navies.
the trick, of course, is getting past your foes. therefore, if you wish, you
may create "channels" directly to a piece of shore.
so long as the distance is too great for them to bombard (reliably) [oh god
no? idk that's a weird way to start]
why would you send any convoys if you couldn't send a stream of convoys
supplying more of what that convoy thinks you'll need?

besides the cat, and look at them in your periphary. Occasionally you can look
back, but the idea is that this way they will be able to look at your face

cats are autistic - they don't look at you unless you're looking somewhere
else.

a time where your life depends on your ability to debug a computer without the
internet. To set up an SSH server. To install Linux. To program in C. To do
something else that I'm not prepared for... If StackOverflow didn't exist
because network connectivity has been lost, could you remember syntax? Maybe
it's a good idea to set up a local LLM that can answer basic questions about
technology. Maybe it's a good idea to set up on your parents computer, just in
case you have to hide out there for a couple months. Maybe it's a good idea to
download wikipedia, just in case.

If you can't, say "good luck", and they'll find someone else who can.
It's okay to pass a task off - if someone says "Here's what I need, gotta go"

LLMs can't do math. Duh. That's like asking an "if check" to do recursion.
What he should have done is had the AI output the requested calculation as
JSON or something and use a calculator function call with the specified
arguments instead of trying to memorize every answer. But that requires more
functionality that has no reason to exist if your only goal is to be a tech
bro and build up a vacuous product that exists only to be hoovered up by
Google or Microsoft.
We could build such beautiful things if we just dethroned those giants. They

I don't understand why modern software isn't error correcting. We shouldn't
have any bugs in this day and age.
For example, if you're missing a dependency then why doesn't your program try
to, I dunno, download that dependency to the program's installation directory
and use it there? Seriously there are very few problems that are unsolvable!

UX idea: text is rapidly revealed (rate configurable) letter by letter and
upon reaching the bottom of the page it starts over at the beginning,
overwriting what was there in a different color to show that they're separate.
For colorblind accessibility it might switch between white background black
text, and black background white text. Again, user configurable, colors are
cool too.
If the user pushes the spacebar it pauses until they resume it, and it goes a
bit slower. If they catch up to it they can double spacebar to make it go
faster!

the first initiates the conversation, and sets up an encrypted line. It
