A couple days ago they had published an overall score of 53 for this model, but that was removed and today it returned with a score of 56. I wasn't able to find an explanation from…

Sometimes I wonder, if I read a piece of Claude writing back in 2020, would I feel how alien it is? Would I be off-put?

It's still 50% off apparently. Listed as $0.10 for input (original price was $1.0 without this reduction or sale)

According to the link I mentioned above it's roughly as good as GPT-5.4. Haven't tried it in practice yet. I bet it must be better in some contexts and worse in others.

I generally just check the Price/Performance graph on Openrouter: https://openrouter.ai/rankings#performance#benchmarks . Activate the "Show Pareto" toggle on the right. I was stil…

Even if LLMs lied 30% of the time, they would still be about as useful as they currently are for me. When I ask for their input, it's always for a situation where I'm capable of ju…

The gov.uk Design System calls this the "Exit a page quickly" pattern [1], with an associated component [2]. It can be activated by clicking the Shift key three times. There's this…

I've had good fun reading about best practices for forms in Adam Silver's blog. https://adamsilver.io/blog/form-design-from-zero-to-hero-all... He has posted many new things since.…

That's actually one of the more polished sites of this genre, thanks for sharing! Sent some waves to a couple of friends

If you're a Spotify user, you can get even more precise data by downloading your listening data. The website I linked gets data from MusicBrainz and tries to fill in the gaps with …

last.fm is one of my very favorite services. It's rough around the edges in some parts, but I've gotten incredible value from it. A couple of websites built on it that I check out …

Yesterday, or the day before, Google lowered the AI Pro quota from 33x standard usage to 4x. From the talk on the Gemini subreddit it's severely lower than before. I'm likely cance…

I think the parent's point is: a couple of years ago handwriting was the only option. You'd see a post like this and know it was something special. With LLMs, we can't tell anymore…

I was wondering why the original poster chose 21. Maybe it was because he's 34 and that's the previous Fibonacci number. Following this logic, you're precisely the age you should b…

One of my favorite web apps for testing your microphone and camera has this echo feature built in, with 0s, 1s and 3s delay: https://webcammictest.com/mic/

The best way to discover music nowadays is RateYourMusic. I go to an album I like, read a couple reviews to find like-minded people and check out their profiles. They often have li…

Tried it out now, pretty nice. Note that apps built from the SDK don't have access to the full history, only up to some cutoff. I tried a couple over the years and wrongly conclude…

I'm a big fan of last.fm. If you use Spotify, you can download your full listening history here: https://www.spotify.com/us/account/privacy/ . You get it in a pretty convenient JSO…

This "headings closer to the content" suggestion is very good. I came across it when reading Butterick's Practical Typography and it's possibly the lowest effort/clearest improveme…

Serious in-person competitions like ICPC are still effective against cheating. The first phase happens in a limited number of venues and the computers run a custom OS without inter…

Watched it this week. Pretty good. There are a couple parts at the start and the end where a lady points her phone camera at stuff and asks an AI about what it sees. Must have been…
