Is there a way to connect to non-standard SSH port that i’m missing?

At a minimum, I'd expect a networking program named "echo" to be able to talk to port 7...

figured it out. in the connection box just append :port-number to the hostname/ip address, e.g. user@server:7 to have it try port 7. you should see it reflected in the connection detail text below the box

There might be a selection bias - off all the people who take that roundabout route; few achieve Jobs’ level of success. We never hear about them.

For sure, the vast majority of people taking the roundabout path don't achieve his level of success.

I just mean it's interesting how there don't seem to be more young people trying to emulate his particular route. Many claim they want to be "the next Steve Jobs" or achieve the same level of success, but then just go the same route as every other ambitious person.


That's because the "independent thinker" route (Steve Jobs' route) is going to look different for everyone by definition. Whereas you can look out onto the "yellow brick road" anytime and see who is on it.

Ambition and independent thinking are pretty much orthogonal. Cultivating boatloads of both is rare, but can allow for great moonshots.


His level of recognition.

Success is something else, not about fame, not necessarily public.


I think they were talking about financial/professional success, as in being a founder of a billion+ dollar company.

I guess so, but they still seem confused:

> Job's level of success. We never hear about them.

Success != hearing about it.

You don't hear or know about most people success, or failure, for that matter; even huge ones. You know about a very small subset of these. That's fame.

And I'm just not sure that "being a found of a billion+ dollar company" was what Jobs considered his own success; but a consequence or aside part of it. Actually, no one knows but him.


What you're saying makes sense, I just think GP wanted to say something else entirely and borrowed the word "success" for that.

You do hear about people making it big and creating profitable companies (one possible definition of "success")... But how many of these founders nowadays are hippie-like figures with a multidisciplinary education? Not that many, if any.


> I just think GP wanted to say something else entirely and borrowed the word "success" for that.

That was precisely my point in my initial response.


With MDM solutions you can not only get software update management, but even full LOM for models that support this. There are free and open source MDM out there.


There are even already some local AFM to Open AI API bridge project on GitHub - that lets you point basically any Open AI compatible client at the local models. Super nice for basic summarisation and completions.


Sometimes you have to marvel at what early desktop computers achieved with their kb’s of memory and mhz of cpu - less power than even a dishwasher might have today.


NotebookLM now supports Dutch - So you could load up some content of interest and 'join the studio' to talk with the hosts - I imagine that might be useful and fun.


iMessage is actually post-quantum prepared - see https://security.apple.com/blog/imessage-pq3/


I have an old iMac G3 from circa 2001 with classic Mac OS 9 on it for this purpose; there are great library websites out there with all educational games from the 90’s - no internet requirement in sight and loads of fun!


On current iPhone Pro (16) you can even select the audio mix you want for recorded video after recording.


Unfortunately in practice I've found it sounds not great.


Depends. In my practice (selfie camera videos) I found it to be unbelievably good.


Someone had to post this video of a song about Fermat - even if it’s in Dutch - legend: https://youtu.be/X2AVi6RCgN8?si=ZnN9lMb-XuirZ20_
