my prediction is that sooner or later kagi will be bought by google or microsoft

I'd be fine with it if Microsoft did it. I've used Bing Search daily for more than 5 years, and I sometimes go back to Google for the Image Search. Bing Images used to be great, now it's all buggy in Firefox.

We don't need to feed more the Google monster machine more than it needs to.



The electricity used to send the http request, run the lisp code on the server, save it to whatever database Paul Graham used to build HN and render it on my display could have been put to better use that your comment. Or mine. :)

if you are still not clear about the definition of Ai slop, it is right here :)

why use this over openrouter?

I'd expect for workflows where there is value in knowing that the data is processed in the UK. From a contractual/data protection standpoint, that could be very useful, depending on the use case.

Avoiding routing through US or US-based companies.

good question, it's going to take a lot to dislodge openrouter from my workflows

openrouter is an US based company, so falls under CLOUD Act

i tried ansible before and hated it, this idea is genius.


True if you can write a function that summerize an article for example


cl /std:c++17 /EHsc /W4 /O2 /DUNICODE /D_UNICODE /wd4005 /Fe:RedSun.exe RedSun.cpp advapi32.lib ole32.lib user32.lib


Seriously this is my bugbear with code for windows: how did you figure that invocation out?

Anything for Linux you just type "make". If the author skipped a makefile, theres rarely much to it.

But when someone has a cpp file for Windows it looks like this.


This is a misrepresentation. This command-line is the compiler invocation, and is not the equivalent to 'make' on Windows. The actual equivalent on Linux, in the same order of the arguments to cl.exe would be:

  cl /std:c++17 /EHsc /W4 /O2 /DUNICODE /D_UNICODE /wd4005 /Fe:RedSun.exe RedSun.cpp advapi32.lib ole32.lib user32.lib

  g++ -std=c++17 -Wall -O3 -DUNICODE -D_UNICODE -Wno-builtin-macro-redefined -o RedSun.exe RedSun.cpp -ladvapi -lole32 -luser32
I see no difference. One uses slash-demarcated arguments, the other uses hyphens. The g++ invocation is missing the flag for the exception handling model[1]. Otherwise, it is a matter of what you are used to. In fact, if you have MinGW, this exact command-line invocation will probably work correctly.

When you install the VS build tools you get nmake which processes most Makefiles just fine. Or you get a solution file, in which case you just open the solution in VS and press F5. Or if you are hung up about doing it in the command-line, it would be

  msbuild.exe foo.sln
Or with CMake, which has a cross-platform command-line,

  cmake --preset somepreset
Linux people who don't know Windows and complain that 'it looks like this' is my bugbear, when they can spend hours fixing a dumb in-tree driver with printf debugging that works plug-and-play on Windows.

browsing through the details etc, i genuinely thought they were another twitter vibe coding grifter


The world’s most successful one!

I had never heard of Block before, but I visited their website and downloaded one of their open-source projects, Goose (an OpenCode alternative). I ran a very simple prompt on one of the projects I’m working on to implement a small feature. It ended up going into what seemed like an infinite loop and consumed three-quarters of my monthly Poe subscription on a single prompt. I uninstalled it immediately.


Never heard of them either. But the link in the title is to Jack Dorsey's tweet. Now him I have heard of. Didn't know he was involved in that company too.
