    Sounds like "Off to be the Wizard". The series is called "Magic 2.0"

    I'm totally fine, just annoyed by how much this "try not to think too hard about the how and think more about the why and what"[0] is getting brought up every single time someone m…

    We get it, you don't have a passion for the act or the craft, just the end result, but I'm absolutely sick of hearing it all over this site as if it's a universal truth that some o…

    What about it?

    Definitely. Despite the wording of my question, which I intended to be rhetorical, I understand why people are doing it. While I think that is one explanation, I think it's mostly …

    Sorry, I don't mean to single you out in any way, but why does AI/LLMs have to get shoehorned into every discussion here? It's getting exhausting.

    That's just what some people generally use to refer to LLM input string/prompt/message/etc. The only thing the LLM can do is return information...in the form of text, so every requ…

    No, they're saying that 80% of genai queries (aka anything sent to an LLM; I won't speak on the validity of the percentage) are not things someone would search on Google. It's thin…

    Sure, it's not original or unique, but that wasn't your question. Facebook itself wasn't particularly unique when it launched.

    Bandlab Studio, maybe? Never used it, but might be what you're looking for. There's a web version and a mobile app. https://www.bandlab.com/creation-features

    You don't have to login to X or download the app (if you're on mobile). X won't let you see the replies otherwise. I also prefer that the layout is denser and you can see more cont…

    Community growth might imply technical success (debatable), but technical success does not imply community growth. You can have a very technically successful project, but it doesn'…

    And endeavors, which are supposedly for the benefit of everyone, that listen to no one run into the ground even quicker. That's beside the point though. I was pointing out the hypo…

    Community size and positive community feedback, which is somewhat tangential to progress, which I assume is in the context of development. Also, the rate at which the original free…

    I also like how his first response to a reply to the announcement (and multiple others) was "who do you speak for?" while simultaneously framing a discussion with a single person, …

    What does your progress have to do with the name? You're so defensive that you're reasoning with non sequiturs.

    The bar isn't any higher. There's just no grace given. No one is judging a hobby project made by a human on quality, and the person who the hobby project belongs to will rarely say…

    It makes you less valuable and your job less secure because as LLMs improve, the level of knowledge/skill required goes down, thus putting more people at the level of "good enough"…

    I switched from VSCode to Zed, which has a helix mode built-in and it works very well. For Obsidian, I use markdown-oxide with helix and just use the Obsidian app as a viewer. A he…

    I use visual mode all the time in both vim and helix. Again, the overall selection-action feels more natural for me and doesn't require a separate mode for basic editing, nor do I …
