The future is clearly open source. The last few days I've had an open source LLM (Qwen 3.8) powering an open source harness (Hermes) working on my open source operating system (Omarchy) I've been able to customize my ENTIRE computing experience, and it's changed my life Because my entire stack is open source, I can edit ANY part of my computing experience I didn't like the way notifications worked in Omarchy. I asked my Hermes Agent to change it I wanted my LLM to sound more like me. I asked my agent to train a LoRA I found the Hermes desktop app confusing. I had it edit itself I'm no longer enslaved to Window or MacOS. My computer experience is EXACTLY what I want it to be and I've never felt so empowered in my life This is so obviously the future. A world where EVERYTHING you do with your computer is hyper personalized, custom, and changes based on what you're doing. I'm 100% convinced of this So how do you prepare? Well you own your entire stack You own your compute, your LLM, the harness commanding it, and the operating system it's all running on You run a local LLM on your computer, then install an open source OS you can control (I like Omarchy) If you do this, I promise you'll never feel so empowered in your life (and before you ask, no Big Open Source isn't paying me)
