    I feel that a lot in my side projects: maybe one should keep the half-baked AI repo for oneself and rather share what the experiment, the thesis, and the learning from the building…

    My team is asking the same. We are using jj with great success but tools like auto claude are designed around git and git worktrees. It's a shame - at least with git backend we can…

    I wanted the same extension but more steerable and open source, so I built open jj recently https://github.com/olup/open-jj

    Show HN: I Claude coded a small open-source jj VSCode extension

    There were only 2 of them; one was not awesome for me to use, and the other one is not open source, and I felt it lacked some features. So I made a third one, mainly for me. Early …

    I can't relate more. I am also prone to ophthalmic migraines and have the same tendency to not be thirsty, to the amazement of the people I usually trek or live with. Only recently…

    Famous french radio program about lives and experience, like the moth meets Bourdieu. For this episode, they wrote and made the voices all in ai, relating to the Paris ai submit. T…

    On the prompt side, it's very simple, and can probably be done in a variety of ways. How we did it is to prepare a prompt with multiple "user" messages. The first one gives the ins…

    Poster here. We would have loved that, and it was one of our first proposal - a QR code or some kind of marker. However, the client is understandably very controlling on the aesthe…

    First time for me posting this kind of story - I thought it would make an interesting case on solving a hard computer vision problem with a crafty product engineer team.

    I just loved the wooden spirograph thing I got my 5yo daughter for Christmas (she does too, what fun). But then I thought making it an app to start exploring how those shapes work …

    We have an openai account for the company, so I mainly use gpt4o or 4o mini with supermaven and cline. I think Claude 3.5 works even better.

    I use supermaven and cline with my own API key, a setup superior to cursor imo. Tried to go back to gh copilot yesterday but couldn't bear it for a full workday, and reverted to my…

    Interesting but we process documents before embedding them, and have specific requirements for the embedder. Having developed a couple of page to markdown myself, I think the bigge…
