ClipEgg:我们把复制当成了囤积
2 分•作者: DaaaaveATX•7 个月前
复制功能已经崩溃了。40年来一直如此。<p>当你复制东西时,你真正想要的是什么?<p>一个指向某物的引用。一种表达“这个,这里,我想在其他地方使用它”的方式。<p>但你得到的是什么?<p>一切。图像。格式。字体声明。元数据。整个 DOM 子树。一辆装满家具的 6MB 货车,而你需要的只是一个地址。<p>我们把复制和囤积混淆了。<p>而且这笔账算起来很疯狂。<p>每天发生 400 亿次复制操作。平均负载:100KB 的没人需要的东西。这相当于 4EB 的数据驻留在 RAM 中,在设备之间同步,并被粘贴到按令牌收费的 AI 工具中。<p>能源成本:每年 3300 万吨二氧化碳。相当于 700 万辆汽车的排放量。仅仅为了剪贴板格式。<p>旧的复制方式:这是所有东西。囤起来。<p>新的复制方式:这是一个引用。根据需要,在允许的情况下,获取你所需要的东西。<p>所以我构建了解决方案。<p>一个蛋。200 字节。一张领取凭证,而不是货物。<p>接收者根据上下文打开它。粘贴到终端?纯文本。粘贴到 Figma?加载完整的资源。粘贴到不应该有访问权限的系统?什么也没有。<p>复制 = 糖霜。
剪切 = 蛋糕。<p>观看演示:https://daaaave-atx.github.io/clipe96<p>规范:https://github.com/daaaave-ATX/clipe96

Copy is broken. It has been for 40 years.<p>When you copy something, what do you actually want?<p>A reference to a thing. A way to say "this, here, I want to use this somewhere else."<p>What do you get instead?<p>Everything. The image. The formatting. The font declarations. The metadata. The entire DOM subtree. A 6MB cargo truck full of furniture when all you needed was the address.<p>We confused copying with hoarding.<p>And the math is insane.<p>40 billion copy operations happen every day. Average payload: 100KB of stuff nobody asked for. That's 4 exabytes sitting in RAM, syncing across devices, getting pasted into AI tools that charge per token.<p>The energy cost: 33 million tons of CO2 annually. Seven million cars worth. For clipboard formatting.<p>Old copy: Here's everything. Hoard it.<p>New copy: Here's a reference. Fetch what you need, when you need it, if you're allowed.<p>So I built the answer.<p>An egg. 200 bytes. A claim ticket, not cargo.<p>The receiver cracks it open based on context. Paste into a terminal? Plain text. Paste into Figma? Hydrate the full asset. Paste into a system that shouldn't have access? Nothing.<p>Copy = Frosting.
