It’s really well done. At one point the character says something along the lines of “but they would rather do other things, like play on neal.fun instead of going to the amusement park”

Alright; I’ll bite. Where’s the dog? I’m still confused.

What's up with every AI company having a $0 plan and a $20 plan? I would pay for a lot more of these tools if they were $5 (obviously with less capability than a $20 plan), but I don't use any one enough to justify nearly $300&#x2

I remember being so excited when I found out I could get computer game books at the library. I would take one out, and spend the next hour typing out several pages of "Tour de France" in BASIC, then another hour figuring out whe

Here's what I did: - I wrote down my goals, equipment, and past workout history. - Then I asked ChatGPT to generate a P/P/L workouts around that, in 8 separate chat instances - I then wrote another prompt for a fitness expert

The “right” tool for the job depends on a number of factors. Performance is one of them, but ease of implementation is just as important depending on the scale. Since you already have it working sufficiently using SQLite, why would you swit

Reminding me that this was a thing was a wonderful holiday gift. Thank you!

This benchmark is interesting, because it sidesteps the reasoning and process that humans would excel at. For example, if I asked you to assemble a bookshelf with some wood, nails, and cement, you might first make a hammer with the cement b

> Needlessly tied to crypto Let’s unpack that. By “crypto” you probably mean cryptocurrency, but let’s not forget it’s the same crypto as in cryptography. You absolutely want cryptography involved in something like this for obvious rea

The usage of "free" is almost always used when referring to something that can be obtained/used without exchanging money. Google is not requiring you to pay for an account. Even if they were, you could still complain that thi

Well yeah, and GPT is just a bunch of matrix multiplications configured in a specific way. The bells and whistles are what turn it into something useful.

I don’t know a single person who pirates music anymore. It’s way too convenient to pay $5-10/month for unlimited access to nearly every record ever created. And there was a brief period in the 2010s where I could almost say that about

I find it so funny that the first image you see shows “height” generating absolutely awful suggestions. Is this representative of what someone could expect? “Overview: a dashboard for Level 5 autonomous vehicles” “Features [written by heigh

Which players only accept mp3? Maybe this was true in the early 2000s

What’s the point of converting it to mp3? AAC inside an m4a container usually has better sound quality than similarly compressed mp3, and definitely better than reencoding.

Simone actually has a pretty good video that covers her costs to run the product business. TL;DW, not very much profit, especially at the beginning/low volumes. https://youtube.com/watch?v=iEAShZ8TJCs

The new name lacks context that the old one had. Imagine discussing it on a bad telephone connection: “There’s this game similar to Minecraft; it’s called Minetest. You know like, mining and testing” Vs “There’s this game similar to Minecra

Have you tried Cursor? It’s the process you describe, minus the manual work of copy/pasting. You can just select a block of code, and tell it to (e.g.) “make this function work as a decorator with graceful exception handling” and it wi

It’s a simplified version of x86 that is 64bit only. It removes all the backwards compatibility for 32/16bit apps, as well as a number of low level features that aren’t really used/needed (legacy IO, old versions of SSE, memory se

I wonder how hard this would be. As a joke, I put your comment into Claude and asked for an XKCD comic. Surprisingly, it generated (a very bad) SVG image: https://jumpshare.com/s/cBhNffK6aWZX5SwYP0YN I asked it to inst

I actually don’t even see the word “buy” currently. I see “add to cart” and “checkout”. That said, I doubt it has any real impact on sales. It’s like “Beef chili” vs “Chili with beef”. The average consumer wouldn’t know the difference.

It’s very common in industries where the software is the tool, not the iPad itself. For example, it makes sense for sales to have their own iPad, because they use it as a portable notebook, CRM, email box, slideshow controller, etc. But in

Pricing is 0.6¢/request, which means you can easily rack up a large bill if you're not careful/clever. For example, autocomplete on key press (most common use case) for San Francisco would potentially search S, Sa, San, &quot
