backdoor with 2 #vibe extensions...

The latter part of the above would have been read quite differently less than 10 years ago. 😅

@knowprose where is it?

“State” sounds technical, but it’s really just “what’s true right now.”

Where do you see state causing the most confusion?

@knowprose interesting, I made one too. I thinking of using the simplelogin provider which they also seems to offer.

I'm not saying that nothing should be automated by LLMs. But I think many are severely underestimating the knowledge we are building from boring tasks, and we are in danger of losing that knowledge when the pressure for increased efficiency makes us turn to the chatbots.

Does it really matter if I remember my friend's birthday, when I can have a chatbot send them an automated congratulation? Yes, it matters because in the first case you are consciously remembering and thinking about your friend, consolidating your side of the relationship.

If I outsource all my boring project administration tasks to a chatbot, it can leave more time for my main task: research. But it will also rob me of the opportunity to feel ownership to the project and build a basis for taking high-level decisions in the project.

Outsourcing thinking

I’ve been spending time tightening the hidden parts of Driftya lately.

Not new features. Not visible changes.
Just making sure the foundation is solid.

Strong security headers, strict content policies, and defensive defaults so notes stay where they belong.

If a platform is about writing, it should also feel safe without asking for trust.

@baldur true, I get most of my idea to solve issue when I shower. :blobmiou:

@knowprose i agree, it is like a parallel universe, it is scary that few people can do so much damage.

@serigala_tropis @knowprose sounds scary, will be very dangerous to login on our bank account.

There's more I wanted to squeeze in there, but this will do as it applies to a system perspective of #OpenClaw use. It's a symptom of something larger.

I'm not against it's use. I'm for fixing the stuff that makes people think it's the cat's meow. Better for all of us in the long run.

From the feedback regarding the ux for showing the past I decided to go with next and previous action together with timeline. It turned out pretty good.

#SmallWeb #ux #uxdesign

I’m thinking about how UIs show past content.

Pagination, infinite scroll, filters, “you’re all caught up.”
Different ways of saying where something ends, or doesn’t.

Options I’m considering:
* clear pages with a sense of closure
* endless scroll with no stopping signal
* filters that gently narrow, not rank
* limits that protect reflection from becoming a feed

Curious what’s most easy for you when revisiting things.

Is there any other creative ways I have missed out?

@jkntech I think it shows how strong the desire is for something different, even if we keep reaching for familiar shapes.

@magnusjonasson looks amazing, does it taste good too?

@Driftya and I am reminded of the app. I need to fiddle with it, and I am glad of the quiet reminder.

@knowprose @serigala_tropis

Thank you. That means a lot.
I’m glad it feels light.

@knowprose I can feel the scent from your text.

@omz13

I mostly mean endless scroll + metrics + everything competing for attention.
I’m curious what communication feels like when things arrive one at a time instead.

I keep thinking about the “post in a bottle” feeling.
That quiet joy of finding something that doesn’t feel broadcast, just… found kind of way or how to explain.

What is your thought about that?

I’m experimenting with something because feeds feel wrong to me.
I’m not sure if anyone else feels this way.”

This feels like the core of programming to me.

Is there a simpler way to describe what code really does?
