ChatGPT just told me to put the turkey in my toaster oven legs facing the door, and you think it can replace school. Unless there is a massive architectural change that can be prov…

Yeah, when I started I actually had no intention of doing a chat app, but it was a good way to learn how it works. Eventual goal with this is a sort of hybrid notes app. Not an llm…

Thanks for checking it out. Thinking to do a more file/notes focused version esp on mac because it’s blazing fast there.

Despite Apple’s fairly clear warnings that their 3B 4K model is not for use as a chat app, I had to try anyway. There’s definitely plenty of work to do but it’s starting to become …

I feel confident that we do.

Hear! Hear!

It’s inert, how bad could it be? /s

Commendable. I’m starting out on my second attempt at a learning app in my life, and I feel the same.

One of these is not like the other.

My money is on a larger iPad (think Microsoft Studio) that takes the place of an iMac. Likely 15” at first, larger later. I really enjoy a keyboard and trackpad with an iPad and an…

Your point is true, but this “interview” is mostly nonsensical fearmongering with no substance.

There were lots of earthquakes before 2004, and 2012, etc.

Great point. What could another reason be for not doing so?

So now all the pieces are in place for the wealthy to survive on their yachts while the rest of us burn up from climate change.

This is incredibly interesting. Not something I had read about before. Literal knots in RNA! It’s like a sabotage (in the etymological sense), a wrench in the gears of protein.

exacerbate [ https://www.wordnik.com/words/exacerbate ] is the word. No hate here, it’s just a weird word ;)

All fine and good, but wouldn’t you need to list the price of your vehicle as well?

Just one little old scandal, huh.

This is the show that sparked me to pursue engineering. Cannot recommend it highly enough. The original was a masterpiece.

To clarify, as the dialogue could be construed otherwise, Larry was actually very humble. While he was not as famous as he should have been, he had so much influence on the industr…

This breaks my heart. I used to work next to Larry—literally sat next to him—on Yahoo’s central design team. We were in frequent meetings together, but didn’t talk one-on-one often…

“The Winter of our Disc Content” (January 1992). Brilliant!

It was likely due to HEVC licensing. HEIF is just the container, so they still should’ve provided ways to generate .heif files using other codecs like JPEG. They may have assumed t…
