Still using Kate for all of my coding

They seem to be interested mostly in adding more and more visual editing features that keep making the whole thing more unstable and messy. There's no hope. We already have clients who were with WP for many years switching to Directus and a custom front-end. The only reason others are still in it is the huge ecosystem and the custom integrations they have built around WP.


Directus seems an unorthodox idea for a website. Is this a marketing post?


Nope, I just found about it recently. It seems familiar for a WP user but decoupled from the front-end. We decided to try it - time will tell if it's a good decision or not.


I don't think this will happen. If most content goes behind a paywall, releasing content for free will again become a valuable source of attention. It used to be so before the web got filled with so much free content that it lost any value.


I disagree. AI will slurp their content so quickly that no one will notice.


I love when between the AI updates and Rust vs C++ wars, HN suddenly promotes a post about rice farming in Japan <3


I wish we got more Rust vs C++, instead of the unending AI flood.


Am I the only one who's not getting the point of this?


nope


Excuse me, but if the difference between 10 EUR per month and 14 eur per month is going to kill your startup, you probably shouldn't try to start it. Might be time to think about using and creating less memory-hungry software.


Actually I disagree. I've killed projects because I've run out of time for them and didn't like them costing me £50 a month. If I'd been able to keep them going at £10 a month, I might have kept them going until I could get back to them. Sometimes startups fail just because the owners get distracted by life, and the project just needs more time.


Who's going to pay for a BJJ coach when nearly everyone is out of job?


You will probably have time related free credits for AI usage. The more you sell stuff that are in demand and ship fast, the higher price you can command. Otherwise you just get basic income. People will have to be creative. Creativity doesn't scale to machines. Creative decision making has too many branches.

So time based costs for product manufacturing and procurement.

Everyone will barter again in a sense.

Better money circulation. Those who just want entertainment can also do nothing. But entertainment will be a more important field. Already the case with tiktok, everyone is becoming an interntainer(sic) these days.

You have things such as the police olympics so to speak in the UAE... :)

So coaching people, personal improvement, wellness, will be good fields to be in.


I learned this year at 45 - before that I only had a moped license and used a moped. I am not a "car person" and did not expect I'd like driving. I turned out wrong! I enjoy it and especially enjoy the benefits and freedom a car gives you. You'll most likely not regret it too.


It's too windy for trees there, similarly to large parts of Iceland. People could probably plant trees that are not high - I don't know what species will feel good in this climate though.


Both the Faroes and Iceland had trees before the vikings arrived and deforested the land, with birch being the most predominant species. But yeah, the wind makes it hard to bring a forest back once it's gone. The rewilding youtube channel Mossy Earth just released a video a couple days ago on their efforts to bring back some birch forests in Iceland:

Was it just for fuel? I don't imagine birch being sufficiently large for shipbuilding. Were there larger diameter trees?


Fuel and settlement activity (shelter, fencing, farmland, etc), I don't think there would have been much wood worthy of shipbuilding, at least compared to their traditional ships.


While I was there I did some search around and it seems that the wind, weather and soil is just part of it. The largest reason is sheep. They'll eat any tree before it has any chance of growing. So you get naturally sparse growth already, add the sheep, you get grass everywhere. Which makes everywhere very walkable and surreal at the same time. Plenty of trees on cities and gardens.


There are a few sheltered spots on the islands with manmade 'forests' like Kunoy Park.


It is not the wind, it is the sheep which eat the trees before the grow big. Trees grow in some gardens and parks, so it is possible.


I'm surprised no one mentioned mPDF. Maybe php isn't very popular here :)
