I trieD this in both DDG and Google (using the !g macro with DDG). DDG first page of results all pointed to zoom.us links. Google (mediated through DDG !g) contained all sorts of spam links to sites like subdomains of uptown.com. Crazy.

They don’t have control over the output. They created something that creates something else. They can only tweak what they created, not whatever was created by what they created. E.g., if I create a great paintbrush which creates amazing sp

Speaking of audio to text, how does one insert a full stop to separate sentences? I tried once to use Siri to voice-to-type - got stuck on this and never used it again.

Someone should invent an Oscar Wilde quote generator like they did for Deepak Chopra. I’ve been guilty of using OW’s quotes but does the format have to be so predictable? “The <$5 word for an emotion> with/of <noun> is not

I came the opposite conclusion as you. Say your friend looks great in a piece of clothing. Based on just this, the next time they ask you what they should buy, you suggest the style and brand they looked good in before. A day later, you dis

Yes, this explanation didn't help him identify dogs as living. I asked him our neighbor's dog was alive and he said no - but I blame that on my neighbors not celebrating their pet's birthdays...those monsters!

I have an idea to improve recruiting of senior technical ICs and managers by having them "guide" an AI towards completing a project. Should reveal how well an IC understands and critiques the original submission by the AI, gives g

The other day, my two and half year old asked what being "alive" meant. My wife went off on a tear about breathing and stuff which confused it even more. I explained that being alive meant that you could have more birthdays. His e

This is what I used to love about Obj-C - idiomatically written Obj-C code was always so much easier to read and understand without needing comments.

I wish I knew what the author was fulminating about. This article is in dire need of examples and case studies but instead, the author says that it is hard to summarise a “decade” of JS/SPA bloat into one article. Anyway, to his point

Didn’t some guy freefall from something like 100k ft or something to a specific landing zone. Remember seeing a red bull video of the event. How did he manage to avoid high altitude winds blowing him off course? Think the name was Baumgartn

If true, this makes so much more sense and is in line with whatever else we know of Einstein’s genius. If not, it sounds like resume padding by someone who wanted to make Einstein seem even more impressive than he is.

Fifteen is also around the time students get introduced to calc, isn’t it? In India, fifteen is around tenth or eleventh year of education and while I’m too old now to recall when we started diff calc, it definitely wasn’t in the 12 or late

that with be pretty great, wouldn’t it!?! An AI which looks at your SENT emails, infers your style and drafts responses in that style for your approval. I can see that becoming interesting.

You’re not seeing it because you’re not in the business of taking market from Google. Let’s take email. Yes, you can’t beat gmail for basic email inbox services but if you were to add a gpt-3 based assistant to your inbox which “learns” as
