About 2 months ago, after about 3 months of several of us struggling to get internet of any kind in our new office space, I wrote a frustrated tweet with a joke bounty for anyone to get this done.
Max stepped up and through mighty struggle, got us internet in about 6 weeks. If you want to know how difficult it is to do any sort of business in Germany, read this harrowing tale of 40+ support calls, corporate apathy via a largely state-held telco, lack of competition and a country largely indifferent to startups.
Big thanks to our awesome bounty hunter Max!

It’s such an interesting argument that is so important now. The craft or the result?
Omarchy is really good. I’ve used Linux desktop shit for (embarrassingly) like 30 years now and this is just honestly really fucking good.
Its solid and delightful and used by millions. I find that pretty compelling.

man, who should i trust? a bunch of nerds who made linux run on apple silicon, reverse engineering that pesky gpu isa among a gazillion other things, all pre-ai.View quoted post on X
or the guy who thinks having your agent rewrite shitty rust he never looked at in x86_64 is excellence?
I've had a few conversations lately with people concerned about copyright protections and it's always pretty funny to me.
I have a book, Pro Git, which is protected by copyright. Agents have read it and learned from it, as have probably many thousands of othere people, as it's on git-scm.com/book
LLMs use it's information to help teach other people about Git, just like people use it's information to teach other people about Git.
I love it.
So many people want to bury their head in the sand and try to keep the copyright walls up, but it's a lost fight.
Whatever you write is now available in ways that were never possible before LLMs. People can learn Git so much better than my book, because of what they learned from my book and I think that's awesome.

idea: AI conference where you have to apply to attend, but the gating factor is that you used AI to search for a discount code before registering.
