agree. We can easily compare it with docker. Of course people can use runc directly, but most people select not to and use `docker run` instead.
And you can blame docker in a similar manner. LXC existed for at least 5 years before docker. But docker was just much more convenient to use for an average user.
UX is a huge factor for adoption of technology. If a project fails at creating the right interface, there is nothing wrong with creating a wrapper.
it has a fatal flaw: 80% of the screen is taken up by the code editor window and a file explorer. Why do you need to waste 80% of your screen on things you don't use anyway?
Why would you store secrets in your dev environment?
Regarding the code, I don't believe it is a concern for most of the people, because they use 3rd party git repo anyway, which has exactly the same level of risk
I use gemma3:1b model (well, gemma3n:e2b since today) to summarize articles in my RSS reader. Works extremely well for such a simple task and runs on CPU on my hetzner server, so I don't have to pay electricity bill for running it on GPU at home
Legally they can. But we all know that Yandex had always had very strong ties with the Russian government. I used to work for Yandex for more than 6 years in early 2010s and even then there were signs of the state trying to influence it through censoring Yandex.News and various other means. And these days you have to be very naive to assume that it is not controlled by the state and people close to it.
I also want to add that Kagi recently partnered with a Russian state-owned search engine Yandex: https://kagi.com/changelog#5340. This means they are paying money to the Russian state through taxes and sharing my search queries with it. This was a critical issue for me, and it led me to stop using it and request a refund earlier this year.
Sad to hear that. I seriously considered registering, but knowing this I can't in good faith pay money to Kagi. I know it sounds petty, but to people in my country this issue is very important.
And for many businesses in the EU it's illegal to transfer money directly or indirectly to Russia. I don't know how this applies exactly, but I know my company cannot legally pay for this
And according to the link below, the Kagi founder/CEO claims Yandex is a private company headquartered in Kazakhstan, unrelated to the Russian government.
Yes and (for posterity / those lazy to read the linked Mastodon thread), if you read through the linked thread, you see that is nonsense and Yandex is very much a Russian business continually adjusting results based on Russian government input (to cross-check, see Wikipedia on Yandex).
The only reason I wanted to get a macbook is because of its impressive batter life. I've been looking at Tuxedo laptops a while ago, but the battery durability was still a concern. Looks like this is not the case anymore, so will definitely consider buying this one soon.
