Show HN: Use your flight-sim gear as a Codex Micro

I really like the spirit! This sort of concept was one of the first things I wanted to explore with a spiritually adjacent project (cataclysm). It's been a bit, so I need to take t…

Replaced my openers in the spring, and 100% wouldn't have chosen them if there wasn't HA MyQ integration. Such a silly move. I used a local Meross install on my old garage doors, t…

Don't think so, but there were some guesses on 3.5-turbo-- i.e. training a much smaller model on quality questions/answers from GPT-4. Same tactic worked again and again for other …

Ah, really curious if it'll balk at the age old problem or just answer based on the code provided since it does inspect the nearby code to understand context for the generated code…

Show HN: cataclysm v0.1 – the final Python module?
cataclysm is an over-the-top experiment to take more of the human out of coding. Any function you give it, it generates and executes. No need to think about what you need, it'll ma…
