I was a major Apple fanboy for 30+ years. But they’ve become an appliance company. There’s no more “bicycle for the mind,” as Steve Jobs famously described early Apple computers.

“If your goal is to educate the world, you can look for ways to educate thousands or millions. If you want to inspire the world, the billions await. But if your goal is to care for the world, and in a given moment you’re deeply caring for one person, you’re doing the best it’s possible to do.
There’s something oddly comforting about that.”

I do use ollama and a handful of models, but AI writing is increasingly detected and penalized by Google, et al, when writing for the web. So, the goal is less of it, not more.
Nothing magical about what iA built. They just put in the work to create an excellent rules engine.

Since shifting Mac to Linux, which I'm delighted I did, there's a single app that I'm missing, and it's proving very difficult to replace. That's iA Writer (https://ia.net/writer).
I found Typora (https://typora.io), which is solid, but it, nor any other I've found, have the same writing tools. iA Writer is like having a stern editor at your side. I use also use LanguageTool (https://languagetool.org). Great at grammar, spelling, and the like, but also not the same.
So, what do you use to write well (on Linux)? #asknostr

> Let's be clear about our language. Madison famously eschewed the word toleration or tolerance when it came to religion and insisted on the words freedom or liberty instead. This became the basis for the Virginia Declaration of Rights, which in turn became the basis for the Bill of Rights. That's why we don't have “toleration of religion” or “toleration of speech.” We have freedom of speech. The right word for the right time.
This is why we nostr. Vive la liberté!

Another banger.
“Modern governments are based on broad popular support. In an age where the largest nation states and their rulers do not rely on organized religion for legitimacy, how can the state co-opt the general population to support its rule? The easiest way to remove the threat of revolution is to tie citizens’ financial net worth to the success of the regime in power.”

"Consider how the payments industry, which is one of the arenas of today, compares with the closely related banking industry, which is not an arena. Banking showed economic profit of $88 billion in 2005, but by 2019, economic profit had shrunk to $21 billion. During the same period, economic profit in the payments industry rose from $4 billion to $17 billion. Payments was also far more concentrated than banking: the top five companies in payments held 77 percent of market cap in our data set in 2020, while the top five in banking held 18 percent. Also in 2020, new businesses held 33 percent of all market cap in payments; in banking, the share was just 3 percent."
This report is a worthwhile read if you're working to divine what's ahead.
