Vigorously typing notes and code, as one does. Reminded abruptly of two significant facts:
how hard I hit the keys when I actually get going
how little travel depth there is on an Apple Magic Keyboard
The magic is pain!

Watched half a video review of Microsoft’s Warp Terminal. Quit about halfway through. Vehemently disagreeing with nearly every sentence describing terminal emulators. Reminding myself they meant Windows cmd.exe. Being just as vehement because I haven’t used cmd.exe since I dunno 2015?
Not gonna trust any kind of review this person has to offer.
Whatever. Found what I needed elsewhere. Warp is an “AI-powered” terminal emulator. Huh. I am vaguely curious about agentic workflows. Not funneled through MS though.
“Bonus AI: Use Warp on Windows before March 26, 2025 to unlock 2x AI credits for your first month”
And I never ever want to think about bonus tokens for my choice of terminal emulator.

@mc One problem – of admittedly many – is that I’ve gradually built up an expectation of failure from anything using the AI buzzword. Whether it’s poorly tuned chatbots, sloppy code generators, or leaky data handling.
I don’t want that in my terminal. I don’t want it on my computer, but I especially don’t want it in my terminal.

Had an idle internet protocol question, remembered I took a class in 2021 and have had raw notes drifting with me from one PKM to the next. Am currently processing those notes.
thought 1) this is like with the bucket of cables; don’t throw that away you might want it someday
thought 2) ah yes the traditional schedule for processing of raw notes: daily, weekly, monthly, annually, and quinquenniumally

Well isn’t that interesting.
