This is strong “criticism of the man in the arena” energy on my part, but I’m kind of disappointed the text just wipes across, rather than the ink sort of “emerging” from the page like in the movie, with the heavier parts of the font appearing first and the thinner lines appearing last. https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=9GgYbFVYkow&t=2m40s

Source code is right there, no need to be disappointed!

This is sick, in the 90's Tony Hawk sense of the word. I love that people can just bang stuff into existence now. There were times in my life where I would wait for an engineering team to change the color of a button for a day to a week. We are not in the slow times anymore.

The funny thing is, making the input/output mechanism is way less impressive and especially way less useful than the underlying LLM tech that hackernews loves to deride.

This is soooo incredibly cool. Beyond the Tom Riddle diary aspect, I love the idea of this as a new medium for interacting with an LLM. You could gift it to someone and they could just write naturally, their thoughts, questions, notes, and get responses back without typing or speaking. It feels less like a chatbot and more like a journal you can communicate through. You could give it a personality and all.

I mean no offense, but it's kind of crazy that people think that linking handwriting recognition, a technology that was first rolled out 24 years ago in Windows XP, with an LLM is "soooo incredibly cool". I don't get it.

Products are something other than the sum of their technical parts.

It's cool but it has nothing to do with the tom riddle application.

It's cool because LLMs are actually fucking amazing technology and people are already numb to it.

Twitter videos are hard to watch when you do not have an twitter account.

I use this website whenever I get sent a Twitter video link that won't load twittervideodownloader.com

Clickable https://twittervideodownloader.com

Works well. Bookmarking this.

There's a video if you click around... https://x.com/MaximeRivest/status/2073544461473169432?s=20

I remember for roughly a month after Elon bought twitter he opened the site up again and public viewers could browse it. Now you can't even click play on a video lol.

You can still open a single post just fine
