Thank you.

  • they are the shovel

    metaphors

  • Heard of something similar in the past. "Be the Arms dealer"

  • it’s so effective, it only takes a few milking it to completely saturate the opportunity market

    Yeah, this is the problem. The moment a couple cover each platform. The bubble gets created really fast with the wrapper implementations that follow suit, that add no added value. Or the value add may be a simple update for the ones that were first, if the first ones never implement it then I usually view the new ones as the better version.

  • Yeah early this year, I was crunching the numbers on even a simple client to interface with LLM APIs. It never made sense, the monthly cost I would have to charge vs others using it to at least feel financially safe, never felt like a viable business model or real value add. That's not even including Generative Art, which would definitely be much more. So, don't even know how any of these companies charging <$10/mo are profitable.

  • I said the same thing. It feels like that. I wonder if there's some sociological study behind what has been pushing "wrappers" of implementations at high volume. Wrappers meaning, 90%+ of the companies are not incorporating Intellectual Property of any kind and saturating the markets with re-implementations for quick income and then scrapping. I feel this is not a new thing. But, for some reason it feels way more "in my face" the past 4 years.

  • true, I noticed they pop up in my recommendations when I listen to vaporwave playlists

  • Lol, not sure what makes it so appealing to me

  • Wow, I was in a trance for a while. Awesome track

  • Ah yes, you have reached the Loom. The hidden gateway into the threadiverse. One must strum the threads to the ballad of federation to find the hidden nymph, Lemmy. Guiding one towards the oasis of --- okay im done. lol

  • I can't wait for federated instances to take over content consumption online

  • Hey there, I finally feel the application has reached a stable state I pushed details and download for the macOS app in this open source repo: https://github.com/neatia/Loom . Feel free to let me know what you think!

  • that's why I generally, just like keeping my blockchain news with EIPs/ERCs rather from anything/anyone else or at least merit based.

  • Where’s the nugget?

  • And Creative Commons. And SOPA. And WIkiLeaks. He was an Open Access civil servant in its true form.

  • Back when "reddit.com" was a subreddit. I remember the thread (you can still visit it today) regarding his early departure. And how Aaron and spez didn't really want to disclose the "real reason". But, it saddens me how the public viewed his contributions as complete nil in result of no full disclosure (Aaron did simply state corporate life (post acq.) was not for him, but everyone says that).

    Especially during times like this when the same batch of Aaron's year (Altman, Huffman, etc) are pushing closed source thoughts. We need Open Access civics, like Aaron again.

  • like a true online sandbox with no constraints/agenda

  • yeah the way you phrased it. noticed again. i always felt I was aware of my motivations and actions the past decade. but now i have noticed that I was just lying to myself. the joy of creating for the sake of, was long gone.
