The could shut down the company and `rm -rf *` all their assets, no?

Plus, fulfillment of wishes to users as opposed to IT architecture management. Users have been brainwashed to demand certain brands. When you combine this with an IT Management that lacks mid-term risk management or a vision, you get happy users and an IT landscape easily taken hostage by single vendors.

This is the reason why I find Trilium Notes so liberating, where one note can have many parents.


Even more so: The 9P protocol https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/9P_(protocol)

Maybe the most mainstream incarnation is its use in the Windows Subsystem for Linux (WSL).


I love it and use it for personal projects and internal tools. I tend to combine it with https://pocketpages.dev/ which gives me file-based routing and nice templates.

Ah, and Pocketbase has automatic database migrations, so all schema modifications can go into version control.

I even hacked a Gemini protocol server into it, so that I can browse my personal knowledge graph using Lagrange.


May I know how's Pocketbase performance demand? I am thinking of hosting it on a Raspberry Pi 5 at home. Any limitations you find unusual/notable compared to standard Supabase?


I’m probably not the right person for this but it’s perfect for home use. There’s a few OSS homelab dashboards build exactly for this type of thing. I run a Home Assistant one.


It’s a lot lighter than Postgres/supabase. I run it on a pi-5 and it works perfectly well.


What is Lagrange? I couldn’t find any project in the context of LLM or knowledge graph.


They said they hacked a Gemini server, Lagrange is a Geminispace browser.

I also somehow thought a Google Gemini MCP server.


So did I. I know Gemini the protocol exists, but the reality is, in almost every context "Gemini" is so much, much more likely to refer to Google's LLM that I'm taken aback when it doesn't.


There is a minimalist browser named Lagrange built for the Gemini protocol (a lightweight alternative to HTTP).

I’m guessing that’s what they refer to.


it's funny because no one brought up LLM including the link posted but you go "...it must be LLM related" :)


They were thinking of Google Gemini, not Gemini (protocol), the latter which, although being the older, might have to consider a name change to escape a slow death after Google's hostile name-takeover.


I'd rather stay in Linux and use Windows if I really must. Can we have an LSW, then?

Virtual Machines exist.


Like Wine?

For thirty years now, the world knows that the last company to trust calendars and mail is Microsoft and yet they are all over the place. I have lost all hope for humanity‘s future.
