There are very few apps on app stores that don't need network these days. Feel free to check out the details on the settings page on the app.

This is unusual. It does have libraries from MLKit for selfie segmentation. So, maybe missing access to Play Services.

Somewhat related... I made an indie app called TwinCam which combines front-and-back camera images to create a combined selfie. Free. No strings attached. Cheers! https://apps.appl…

Add them to the on-call schedule.

I ran a comparison using this OPF with what I have in clarity.evergreen-labs.org (it's a Tauri app with local PII redaction.) A few things jump out: 1) Dates are aggressively redac…

love this. thanks for sharing!

Thank you. The learning aspect of reading how AI tackles something is rewarding. It also reduces my hesitation to get started with something I don't know the answer well enough yet…

I upgraded from M3 Air to M5 Pro 14". Not for LLM, but for faster build times. The disk access time is much faster on M5 Pro. My build time (iOS/Android) was reduced by more than 5…

This will foster multi-app collaboration. Google devs: Please consider doing this on Firebase to make it work on iOS and web too.

Great idea. Addresses a real need. Best of luck with your launch!

Thank you! This is brilliant. I have it bookmarked.

Thank you for your service.

I use my spare time helping kids at a FIRST robotics team. It's fun.

The technical strategy is sound. However, I anticipate major mobile apps will add MCP capabilities to their app very soon too, making less use of intents going forward. Hope this h…

Thanks for a great write-up! Production-quality software can now be made in weeks (instead of months and quarters.) I anticipate an exciting period of fast innovation in all indust…

It's real struggle. Nations will not likely put the brakes on because of its need for self defence. I ponder your question too.

This is fun. Thank you!

Time it takes to go from 100m users to 5 billions: Internet (25 years), Smartphone (13), AI? (tracking to achieve that in ~6 years!) https://evergreen-labs.org/assets/Acceleration.…

We learned computer languages so we can ask computers to do work for us. It was out of necessity because there are no other ways. If we can instruct computers with natural language…

We should ask how the traders manage this. It's essentially 24/7 markets in the world. For them, the FOMO effects are even stronger... actual money earning opportunity.

I wonder how best we can measure the usefulness of models going forward. Thumbs up or down? (could be useful for trends) Usage growth from the same user over time? (as an approxima…

That's why benchmarks are useful. We all suffer from the shortcomings of human perception.
