I've been using Current since it has launched.

Does anyone have any hypothesis why after rebooting macOS chooses the 2nd input source and not your primary one?
I locked my OS, twice, because of this.
I need some URLs that perform redirects as I'm testing a library. Please help
Who has /opt/pkg/env/active/bin and /opt/pmk/env/global/bin in the macOS PATH?
I have never seen anything like this before. Searches come up with nothing.

@tastapod@mas.to pretty much what you write is what I sort of expected.
- uv init in an existing project folder does almost nothing of value. Even if there are sources in the folder it keep creating main.py. Yupee!!!
- there's no venv being created
It seems there's a gap somewhere.

@tastapod@mas.to Do you happen to have something to read first? (Link, your notes, anything). It might be a “collision” of perspectives
First experience with uv tool has been a disaster. I couldn't achieve anything I planned to (create an isolated environment for a project, pull in dependencies using pip, etc.). For every command I have spent a lot more time trying to figure out what command to run. It seems like I came to uv with my baggages and uv's take is rather different.
@mrmasterkeyboard@mastodon.social hi, if I'm not misremembering I read in your feed about Vim accepting AI-authored code. Could you please reshare the details? My searches failed. TY
Are there coding specific LLM models that can be run locally? Which one is worth trying?
Does YouTube show you the last watched videos? Where? How?

- I am enjoying the app so far. I’m still trying to figure out how to handle the different streams given each has their own volume which might led to missing RSS items among too many toots and blueskies.
- Based on the few days experience, I feel the area where the app could improve is feed fetching: every refresh results in many, many errors, most of them cause by a 60s timeout. 2.1 Additionally, it's not clear if I should retry a refresh immediately, wait, leave the app do it later.
Thanks for the app!
