UDF: User Defined Function

Except for history, I don’t find much that stops you from switching back and forth on the CLI. They both use tools, each has a different voice, but they both work. Have it summariz…

I think it's becoming clear we're not anywhere near AGI, we figured out how to vectorize our knowledge bases and replay it back. We have a vectorized knowledge base, not an AI.

With lots of people showing how Saas apps can be easily written these days, I'm not as interested in those articles, as people showing off new ideas of what I can do with these new…

I would drive hours to get to the nearest Fry's to me, to pick up some new gear. Being able to browse everything and look around was great. For me, online ordering of parts probabl…

You're right, and it's a good idea. The summary started out small, as a header to the actual daily pages, but then I realized I could have AI do a lot more work here, including sil…

That's cool! I've noticed when asking for Claude for a website, it does have a certain look, like our two sites, if you don't give it any more guidance. I'm not sure if that's a go…

Beej! Thank you very much! Your networking guides have long been a great contribution to everybody, and collectively improves what we know. These diary pages come largely from Stir…

Yeah. If there are groups that want the high resolution images, talk to me.

Hadn't thought about it, but will take a look. Also, the two Forestry type links look very interesting. I figure there must be interest in this sort of thing - this is one resource…

I did a quick search, mules are mentioned 75 different times. Like this one at random from Sept 1942: https://forestrydiary.com/page/019bd90a-f176-713f-9999-b14b6... "Fix up my pac…

Oh boy. #3 on front page, 19k page hits in the first hour. 8243 static html pages, 15728 webp images (10k-50k each). I've never had one of my sites with this much traffic. With eve…

Also, just to clarify, I scanned all 7488 pages in personally (Fujitsu ScanSnap ix500). With Claude's help, I found some undocumented SANE features to auto crop and fix the scans, …

My great-grandfather Reuben P. Box was a US Forest Ranger in Northern California, and I've got his daily work diary from 1927-1945, through the depression, WWII, Conservation Corps…

I like this. It's rather creative.

I have custom scripts I use at home to keep track of various personal data, assisted by an LLM. The idea of using Telegram as a way to have a global, quick, and personal interface …

Isn’t that how a lot of us learned — buy typing the code out of back of a magazine? Then spending hours trying to debug a typo somewhere. I didn’t realize how close LLMs are to the…

Until just now, I've been trying to figure out why people think that JSON is necessary in the database? Yes, lots of data is hierarchical, and you just normalize it into tables and…

We'll have to get the old (webrings)[ https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Webring ] back in fashion.

You gave an IOCCC snippet as an example of a C99 coding trick you know? I mean, the code looks visually cool, but it's funny to explain a code concept using code shaped like an ani…

In 2021, it was amended to include Navy, Marines, and Space Force. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Posse_Comitatus_Act#:~:text=Th...

Claude Code in Jetbrains seems to also know the active file, so typing in the Claude window has a bit more context when you ask to do something. I'm curious to the other improvemen…

I just want some power ports and good mounting points, then I can put whatever I want there, and upgrade it. I'd imagine that people will come up with a mountable radio kit, like t…

With plastic panels, that means they're replaceable. Possibly even swappable (custom 3D printing?). This just adds to the "modding platform" they could be marketing to.
