    Huh... I wonder if some big version of a bloom filter would work as well. Hash all output text, probably in chunks of a couple tens of tokens each (that would need tweaking to find…

    Genuinely curious, what’s wrong with it? I’m no huge apple fan, but I didn’t really think the 17 was more than a regular boring spec upgrade, which seems fine all things considered…

    The limiting factor of your human brain is the same limiting factor the reader has to function with. You can get the LLM to aid in making something, but at a certain level of greeb…

    In Canada, we have ONE bill with a vertical orientation. [0] The other notes (5$, 20$, 50$, 100$), though designed a bit earlier than then vertical 10$ note but definitely in the s…

    AYY! That's kick ass! I hope you don't mind, but I may need to use your comment as proof for my partner as to why it's not weird to have a homelab receipt printer heh

    I personally think the ones you have on there right now are great! The hand pulling the schedule out of the printer 100% describes the cool thing your app does over other journalin…

    I'll be honest, I think this is a social issue that you're trying to apply a process-solution to solve. If someone writes "this was completely hand-written with no AI assistance", …

    I think ChatGPT will just be calling out to a diffusion workflow to generate the new image, so this is using a general tool for a precise problem. It's not going to be great output…

    I changed ADHD stimulant medication during the winter, and the weirdest part of that change was experiencing raynaud's syndrome for the first time. (Temporary, only when I'm on Vyv…

    They do have to keep drawing them as unicode assigns new codepoints. So they can't really be left alone, other than just leaving the old ones alone and only appending. But I would …

    You already know this, but to say the obvious out loud: Google is certainly big enough that they can pay both a 3D-rendered emoji team and a Drive search team. Drive search is bad …
