    The difference here is _creative_ work vs consumption. Craftspeople like Mitchell feel passionately about the tools they rely on to build. Github has also been a social place for b…

    Maybe Claude thought you wanted to model this church in Chesterfield? Chesterfield's Crooked Spire in Chesterfield | Atlas Obscura https://share.google/ABVhVgtzQ8KxnO27L

    Yeah, why only _one_ fish? It's obvious that pelican is riding long distance, no way a single fish is sufficiently energy dense for more than a few miles. Can't the model do basic …

    Why stop at 12 semitones? That's so square and limiting, man... https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/31_equal_temperament

    There's a whole spectrum of options between super-fat React-in-Electron and expert-optimized platform-specific (perhaps GPU-rendered) apps. VS Code and Zed are close to opposite en…

    There's a world of difference between saying "our stuff sucks" vs "here are the specific ways our stuff isn't ready for launch". The former is just whining, the latter is what a go…

    Interesting direction, thanks for sharing. If you're interested in this space it's worth looking at data-star.dev. who takes hypermedia in the opposite direction - one endpoint per…

    Might be worth getting in contact with the Slant3D folks, their teleport 3d printing service might benefit from an integrated editor?

    Radio 4 has to be Westminster, surely? And Bloomsbury in the evenings. Richmond teeters over into Classic FM to my taste - ostensibly cultured, but basically posh-pop. And LBC is a…

    Nice work, but you might find it's not super unique - video codec people have been thinking about how to apply face recognition ML tech to this use case for 5+ years. For instance,…
