I think a language that just transpiled to the equivalent C would be pretty awesome. I know Google is building Carbon, but it is more focused on C++. They pitch it as Typescript to JavaScript, Scala to Java, Carbon to C++. Instead of Rust o

I started deferring my note taking to later in the evening or the next day. Allows me to stew on an idea for a bit longer and if it’s important I can write down more thoughts (now from memory). Best of both worlds.

Poor class design IS a property of OOP. All of these logical errors that are easy to commit are terrible because they are usually runtime bugs, not compile time. As I think of it, I think a neat feature of OOP would be conditional methods t

The worst part of OOP is that all the properties of an object can be a mishmash of values and are mutable. In any method, you never know if the object is in some undesirable state without checking properties within the method itself. Multip

Disney has been underperforming at the box office for a while now. Review bombs are a symptom of not focusing on the product (entertainment, story). And to my original point, if review bombs are a symptom, then "verified reviewers&quot

Even Rotten Tomatoes has changed this recently to break the audience score into 2 new categories. "Verified Audience" and "General Audience". Disney was probably putting pressure on RT after years of putting out garbage

It's not about the POSTing. Its how you handle the response. The paradigm of this library is that you replace segments of the page with the response, which it doesn't support for POST requests.

Lib is EXTREMELY minimal. Only GET requests with anchor tags. That you can’t POST forms or send metadata make it mostly useless for anything but the most basic website. I guess the creator will think about the minimal features to add in the

Even more impractical, this would imply that the legal team at the company would need to negotiate terms with every single new hire's lawyer. Would be very expensive.

by devmunchies 3y ago
Yeah but for most roles you just aren't in a position to negotiate, even with a lawyer. Most software engineers, for example, are seen as fungible by large companies.

The fire pit is like 40 yards from the garage. Plus most people have 20+ gallons of gas in their garage... in their car.

I don't use android, but why not just install a custom android ROM (with root privileges)? Is it a hardware driver issue? Is it too much work to keep an android distribution up to date? ...like, does Samsung do any work to make sure it

I have brave search as default but always do a google bang “!g”. I do this for every search but figure I’m giving brave some data on all my searches to help improve it. I guess it’s be better if I clicked a link on their results too for rei

If concerned about privacy/security during international travel, a good option is to get a burner phone. A cheap android phone is peanuts.

This is why passcodes are better than biometric auth. It’s easy for an officer to hold the phone up to your face.

What’s funny? Try to write a chat bot built on an LLM that adapts to your personality over time and do it without EVER dynamically changing the prompt.

by devmunchies 4y ago
Well, it depends on what you need from your prompt. What engineering is required for Amazon to deliver me an HTML page? Are the backend engineers just “injecting” HTML? Of course not. It’s not the same as generating the HTML for a personal

See my other comment I just posted to someone else for examples.

by devmunchies 4y ago
Disagree. Some examples. If I have an LLM in a video game that generates NPC dialog, I might want to feed more information to the prompt based on things my character has done in the game so the NPC dialogue is more relevant to me. Maybe I w

Many think prompt engineering is just like being good at writing Google searches, where my job is to be good at knowing "how Google/GPT4 thinks"—good at writing a single query. However, I think prompt engineering will evolve

If you’re being rate limited by IP, then I would guess you need more IPs to spread the load. Maybe even stagger these mass emails to send over 1-2 minutes.

How is the latency for real-time TTS? I remember kicking the tires several months back but went with one of the big 3 cloud providers since they had lower latency. I also like that the cloud provider supports SSML and I can explicitly confi

I think if you are cloning voices, you should be required to have a credit card or some other KYC identifier. Even if it's free. This kind of highly abusable tech should have a paper trail IMO.

I walk around outside and jot down thoughts in Apple notes. If you don’t write things down, many ideas are forgotten.
