I wanted to say I was ticking off all my dusty project ideas with LLMs one at a time. But in reality what I have been working the hardest so far is to help family in times of need,…

I read these Starlink hope stories and get inspired now and then. But the truth is: I've bought a mini and standard, and on my mini I've got maybe a couple of good anecdotes in it.…

Lmao I could not believe this when I read it. Had to do my due diligence in wikipedia afterwards. It's legit! [1] [1] - Fires were almost a daily occurrence in Rome, and Crassus to…

Can today go any faster? Yikes.

You're absolutely right here and things have improved significantly at work after dropping this habit even if slightly.

Guilty as charged. In my mind, when I'm insecure about a response or if I don't have enough expertise in the topic at hand I end up running it through an LLM. Lately I've been real…

NGL had me chuckling a bit there when I remembered I had one of these to code on my backlog

Nothing comes close to LLM transcription though. I just tried this. I said "globe key dictation, does this work?". Here's the transcription, verbatim: "Fucking dictation, does this…

This got me thinking that the smaller these local first LLMs get - the more they're gonna looking the next bread and butter of app dev. Reminds me how Electron gained a lot of trac…

I really like the project and am eager to try and fit this into some of my workflows. However, this bothered me a bit: "All models run locally, no private data leaves your computer…

I can relate to the feeling - this timing tracks for when most, if not all of my friends, all my co-workers (even the few who were resisting to adopt any AI toloing) flocked to jus…

Don't you feel that sabbaticals kinda get you off the new tech wave anyway? I usually check in on news much more often when bored at slow work days. On the side, this might not hav…

I don't like it either. But what is really guaranteeing other markets from flunking similarly later on? What's to say other jobs are going to be any better? Back in college, most o…

I'm baffled that I only knew wiby.me from this list. Time to dive in!

The worst part to me, by far, is having nothing more than a bunch of "smart" markdown files to show as my deliverables for the day. Sometimes this stacks for many days on end. Usua…

And what happens when the bucket of knowledge gets too big and starts to overflow? I feel as if, by delegating that process of building knowledge too much, I end up accruing knowle…

It is how I feel when I do it. And it certainly shows over time.

I've recently lazied out big time on a company project going down a similar rabbit hole. After having a burnout episode and dealing with sole caregiver woes in the family for the p…

I've been a vim/nvim casual user for the past year or two, and I still feel as if I'm slightly less proficient in it for the amount of time that I put into it. I really need to get…

And once you get tired of fzf and want something better, you reach for https://atuin.sh . Completely transformed all of my workflows

Cool new toys! I like it. I've recently been thinking of branching into more water sports such as rowing, ocean swimming and the like to have a better shot at surviving out at sea.…

It is so hot in Rio de Janeiro right now. We've had nothing but hazy, humid, UV-infested mornings. Can't wait to spend summer somewhere else. I miss the especially mild winter seas…

Oh man this would kinda help me a lot right now. (As a struggling home owner living w/mom and dog)

I still need to go see them! Here's hoping I don't procrastinate it too much.

For me personally, I generally dislike those neighborhoods around the south zone. I feel very unsafe (more so at nighttime) and I never get used to that smell. Also I find it a hug…
