Wait, what does nobility mean other than aristocracy?

> what does nobility mean other than aristocracy

"Noble" means "known". "Aristos" means "best" (best fit). The "noble" (the notables) are empowered ("-cracy") for being the best ("aristos").

Moral qualities, practical abilities, enabling the exercise of a role in society.


You've never heard something selfless and good described as "noble"?

open source apps can be insanely powerful (and free!) but a thing that keeps a lot of them from 'mainstream' adoption is simply the F-tier user experience

gimp had the same issue and i wouldnt be surprised if you also miss the old GTK UI?

making audacity feel like a modern app instead of a dusty relic isnt making it into McDonalds..

I for one applaud this upgrade -- its the polish it should have had years ago


I’ve long despised GTK and GIMP in general so I don’t think I’d like any form of its UI.

just me or does this entire site/text read as 100% LLM generated? extremely ironic if so, they just pasted the AI.


I got that impression too. Absolutely reeks of LLM. Really irritating.


there used to be a distinction between nerds and geeks


fun fact: this ”far right” party was founded by a former member of the Young Left - youth wing of the Swedish Left Party (formerly known as the Communist Party). Horseshoe theory in practice or just wrongly labeled?


if anyone is interested in searching large video collections local and offline I suggest taking a look at Jumper https://docs.getjumper.io

comes with some nifty features like NLE- integrations, people search, MCP, API etc

The link just timed out for me. I'm in Israel, connecting via residential WiFi. All other sites that I regularly use connect just fine.


hmm weird works for me.. what about https://getjumper.io/?


They're both working now.


Your docs say you integrate with Davinci resolve.

Other comments mention davinci resolve has this built in. How would you compare the two?


Jumper is significantly more accurate


just read it and not entirely sure what the allegory was, if any.

some ideas off the top of my head:

- "humans invent meaning after losing orientation": instead of simply accepting reality (we cant comprhened, our instruments cant measure this, we are lost etc) they turn helplessness into theology

- "science-becomes-religion": hypotheses, measurements revise previous findings into increasing absurdity which eventually becomes religion.

-" life as a waiting room": the station is an allegory for life or conciousness. we're all solitary voyagers on our infinite journey thru the "waiting rooms" of our existence. the journey is the destination etc

curious to hear other riffs/takes on this


I think maybe "finding themselves on the space station" could be like humans finding themselves on Earth? You're born onto the planet and are simply grateful to be here. But the more you learn about it and existence generally, the larger and more grand you find it to be. Ancient peoples looking up at the vastness of the stars is probably how all religions began.


The station is an artifact that make them mad. Their first exploration party never traced its way back, they cross their own path and yet they don't connect the dots but begin to believe the station is infinitely big, and they begin to venerate it - when in fact it is frying their brains.

No huge meaning here, more something in the vein of Poe and Lovecraft.


what’s this precocious urge to define what vibe coding is and isn’t?

who cares?


I'm assuming often it's gatekeeping by people that are terrified seeing what they thought their purpose was slip away.

That's why they have to make what we produce with the LLM something lesser than what they can do by themselves.


this is a solved problem already — check out https://getjumper.io where you can do exactly this (search through 100s of hours) offline and locally.

somehow you never hear stories where they talked about a singer and _didn’t_ see an ad for that singer’s concert?
