My Country is On Fire mataherry.bearblog.dev/my-country-is-on-fire/

Hati-hati pak! I worked in Borneo before, and seeing the forests burn is horrifying. I miss all the wildlife there. Mau kembali ke Indonesia!

replied to:

I'm in Java, not Kalimantan, really can't imagine how all the people and animals go through everyday living in literal hell of fire

Is there any contact you can make with international advocates?

Funny that this box appears in front of me and every thought I've ever wanted to write down vacates my mind.

I do way better going out and writing on pa[er first.

ive been rocking my thinkpad 460s since 2018 or so, but ive just recently yolo purchased a chunky t420 for 80€. I gotta say this is the best laptop ive ever used, keyboard/io is unmatched and it still runs super snappy on omarchy right now, even with only 4 gigs of ram :D AND this thing has a cd drive!

replied to:

its sad that newer models gradually lose features and quality... I love Thinkpads, but I cannot imagine myself using one 10 years from now...

replied to:

yea its insane to me how feature rich these old business machines were, nowadays every laptop just looks the same and kinda sucks. if you have the money and still love the old formfactor, you can consider upgrading to an aftermarket board: www.tpart.net/about-x210ai/

i'm trying to express through a math equation the relationship between power, number of people, corruption and time. corruption = (time in a position of power * power)/number of people who have power what do you think?

"some incessant chirping" <- musical word choice

I’m an insane person who built their own coding harness, in Rust. I’ve called it Rho. Please forgive this landing page: https://rho-code.dev I just wanted an easy central spot.

replied to:

Not insane at all. People should build their own instead of using other people's agents. It's easy to do and the results can be great for you. I've built several; one that is effectively "stuck" in Kakoune:

replied to:

I wrote my own too. I feel like that's the best way.

replied to:

im decently happy with opencode. anything im missing out on?

replied to:

Yeah. It's a very large project with lots of dependencies. <The system prompt is long and wastes tokens. If you have ideas for tools (or automations like the agents.sh "loop" I wrote) it's easier if you understand the harness.

Don’t be beholden to one LLM basket. Get yourself an Openrouter account, get yourself an open source harness like pi and get yourself educated. I will die on this hill.

replied to:

I agree with this. I already use different models for different tasks in part for this reason. Never bothered with an OpenRouter account though, I just have accounts set with each provider. And Pi is excellent. I actually find it much better than Claude Code.
