I like to reduce things to absurdity to put them into perspective.
The hype of AI is to sell illusion to naive people.
It is like create a hammer that nails by itself... like cars that choose the path by itself.
So stop thinking AI is intelligent... it is merely an advanced tool that demands skill and creativity like any other. Its output is limited to the hability of its user.
The worry should be the amount of resources used to vanity (hammers into the newborn hands) or the nails in the wrong place (viral fake content targeted to unaware people).
Like in Industrial Revolution people got reduced to screw tighteners, mind will be reduced to bad prompters expecting wonders and producing bad content or the same. A step back in civilization except for the money makers and thinkers until AI revolution gives birth to its Karl Marx.
A sort of naïve dream... NASA is not the budge, but the brains and lives put on it. It is not American. If you all can have the budget to survive with a check payment work, invest you dream and life on open sourcing the knowledge. Dont let it be an Alexandria Library, certainly ESA, Roscosmos and other future players can inherit your life efforts now or in coming centuries.
For who wants something near similar in other UNIX or Linux, see Luakit, a webkit with customizable adblocker, jsblocker, userscripts and userstyles, vim command alike and fully configurable in Lua.
In a Lua scripting framework to:
- enforce non-globals
- project hierarchy (for tests and documentation)
- cli access for .md package docs
- installation in path
- extension of Lua stdlib (fs.mkdir, os.realpath)
- module autoloading/lazyloading
Expected support for Lua 5.4 and luajit. At first entirely in Lua with long term goal to compiled Lua modules (merging Wax)
The goal is to make Lua the first choice for system scripting in POSIX systems for Lua users without thinking twice between Lua, Sh and other tools like Python, Ruby etc.
I have many system scriptings in Lua but not in a easy way of reusing libraries. Also I don't like to think in creating Luarocks packages or deal with unstandardized ways to write code.
This sounds interesting! I often want to reach for Lua for general scripting in lieu of python or bash, but packaging and other issues make it a rough experience. I'd love a link!
I wonder the extent on what could be accomplished of work on a system like this in modern computer capacity. Your work inspire many thoughts like these. Nice accomplishment.
More than Pocket... I really miss del.icio.us, that helped me a lot on begining of my programming journey 20 years ago. It was truly social, and generated a lot of well curated lists of bookmarks that let me discover much content relates on what I wanted to learn, much more than Google or Yahoo ever.
Sadly it was bought by Yahoo just to be discontinued, like many web pearls.
