Something like this would be great for Cursor, I never know how many credits I’m up to for the month or how much my Max calls are costing.

I think we're talking past each other (or maybe mysticism and Hegel don't mix!). These mystical experiences touch at something on a different level than reason, a little closer to …

You don’t need to take drugs to know things, but reason only covers a portion of what can be known. Reason doesn’t really help one understand the nature of experience itself. That’…

Gary Hustwit (Helvetica, Objectified) just made a worthwhile documentary about Eno: https://www.hustwit.com/eno It's only streaming right now and each streamed version is unique, r…

This was inspiring, what a cool idea. Just curious—-for 4o mini isn’t there a json mode that reliably produces structured output? Was that what you were referring to / ended up usi…

Strategically increasing the amount of light I'm exposed to was a game changer. Turns out we're bad at gauging how much light is in our environment. Few would suspect that the amou…

Not using those “bad practices” of third party analytics can be an existential threat to small businesses, unfortunately.

Yes, that's explored in the sequel. He lives on in Urique, Mexico where his likeness is plastered everywhere and is the namesake for the big annual race in that town.

It is insane in today's world! But big mileage (barefoot, no less) is something we evolved for. Check out the great book Born to Run by Chris Macdougal which explores that concept.…

Commenting on the useful-not-useful split here. Rather than discuss the current “quality of code produced” it seems more useful to talk about what level of abstraction it’s compete…

There’s a short and fun book called Blitzed about “PED” use in WWII. Covering German pharmaceutical industry’s monopoly over certain stimulants, Hitler’s unlikely doctor who shot h…

There’s a Huberman Lab for that: https://youtu.be/at37Y8rKDlA He cites more evidence showing that even moderate dehydration (when you aren’t thirsty) leads to lower performance (me…

For the creator of this product (and to any other creators launching soon): don't listen to the keyboard jockeys saying it will fail. We (commenters here) are essentially NPCs in y…
