Usually no, at least not out of the box.

If you don't sandbox your desktop applications, it is just not safe by principle. You are running binaries using the same user account with zero audit into what it is doing. You need access control.


These posts are just new slops. An operating system is far more than what you see. And the NixOS + Hyprland + Ghostty combo is clearly a meme now.


Welp, I guess LLMs truly helped a lot of people.


I'm not seeing mention of "LLM", "AI", or "chat" in tfa. Can you explain why you think LLMs played a role here?



So you trust random comments? I know what I'm talking about.


Some people tell I used LLMs but it's not true. I learned, a lot. It was long but it works now.


I didn't use LLMs for my projects. I learned by myself.


I just don't see the point of denying that. People use LLMs for coding for sure and it is not a bad thing, and no one can automate a full project 100% with LLMs.

What I saw is that you created initial commits one file at a time via GitHub's web UI, with multiple follow-up commits just to remove emojis from your scripts:

https://github.com/whispem/minikv/commit/c611897f05235ea4410...

https://github.com/whispem/minikv/commit/59369fcbb2a94c5dd07...

https://github.com/whispem/minikv/commit/0e86e9e328b21170e77...

https://github.com/whispem/minikv/commit/9a4cedcd30c3a00e7ea...

Care to share why those emojis were there in the first place? I guess the next step is to say the Rust codes are 100% handwritten but scripts/docs are AI-assisted? ;)


I already said that the code was 100% handwritten but the .md files and scripts. I don't see the problem here.

Well that's not true.

> I tend to over-comment my scripts out of habit—no AI tools were involved here (nor elsewhere in the code). https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=46662378



Purdue is ranked the 13th on csrankings.org. Let's see how it goes in 5 years.


The commit history of this file is hilarious.


A production grade key-value store, while .DS_Store is everywhere in its repository.


All specific to runc.


To be fair, that is 4 dedicated cores not shared with other tenants.


SSDs are more of a black box per se. FTL adds another layer of indirection and they are mostly proprietary and vendor-specific. So the performance of SSDs are not generalizable.


Curious about this as well.
