I am building a system that connects texts (books, research papers, etc.) in a meaningful way to help people decide what to read and be aware of how texts relate to each other.

This sounds like a really cool project, do you have a repo or anything?

A proportional width font terminal. "i" and "w" shouldn't take up the same amount of horizontal space. We used to have to do that because computers were slow and we counted cycles and every bits mattered. We live in a land of plenty now though so we can spend cycles doing math so that ls -l/top/etc table output is still aligned but "i" and "w" can take up the appropriate amount of horizontal space.

Outside of my day job, I've been working on:

- hermitator, a tool to run multiple isolated AI agents for WhatsApp on a single machine, with idle agents using no RAM: https://www.encona.com/posts/hermitator/

- showntell, which allows your coding agent to explain things to you with a video that starts playing within a few seconds of you asking: https://www.encona.com/posts/showntell/

- a philosophy tutor (testing in private for now) that does 2:1 live philosophy lessons, each exploring a single topic (aimed at ~10yo kids). I've tested this successfully (i.e. two kids did an hour and they want to do it again), and am trying to make improvements.

- some other education-related things

- a jmail-style mailbox viewer: https://www.encona.com/posts/mailbox-viewer/
