Large language models are stateless. The apps and fine-tuned models are doing prompt engineering on users' behalf. It's very much a thing for developers, with the goal of making it invisible for end users.

Temperature and humidity sensor is a nice perk for those of us with acoustic guitars and orchids. Presumably it can be used with Apple Shortcuts to trigger notifications. Might upgrade my first gen HomePod eventually, but it still sounds gr

Pretty much every engineer on the Windows team does this type of work. When you have 1+ billion computers with an infinite combination of peripherals and environments (what language, what apps are running, etc.), it becomes a game of statis

Yea having test driven the Mach E, Ioniq 5, and XC40 Recharge there is no way I’d buy a Tesla either. We liked all of those better than Model Y and Model 3. Going with the Volvo, it just feels nicer to actually drive, and has built in Googl

Excited to see massive performance improvements in desktop hardware again. 7950X3D + an RTX 4090 + a PCIe 5 SSD will be quite the system for programming, machine learning, video editing, music production, gaming...

On the same day one part of the government announces breakthrough scientific research another part says “The federal government has yet to take a single meaningful action to protect American users from the threat of TikTok.” lol

You can probably write English way faster than you can write JavaScript, and it’s much easier to read.

I found that for C++ is sometimes uses library functions that straight up don’t exist. I asked it “how do you upload a file to OneDrive” and it suggested using OneDrive_UploadFile from <windows.h>, which is not a thing. I also asked i

Opportunity cost. Add support for an OS that has 3% of Steam users vs. focusing the efforts elsewhere.

Photoshop and Lightroom have had AI upscaling for awhile.

Also why I like playing instruments and drawing with pen and paper and sculpting with clay. After awhile I just got so tired of screens and living in essentially virtual reality.

Would people feel differently if we were talking about web apps, where nearly every click is sent to a server? Why is it egregious for a store to do analytics?

Sounds like a bunch of sociopathic, terminally online people found each other and started yet another hierarchical fund raising scheme. What’s better than picking individual charities based on utility? Charity index funds. Also known as soc

E-bike is the most life changing purchase I’ve made in the last few years. Besides all the financial and health benefits, the biggest benefit is all the fun. Even a boring errand run becomes a nostalgia-filled, wind-in-your-hair joyride. Pl

A bought a bunch of Hue bulbs to setup auto color temperature changing, but both my wife and I found we prefer warm white at all times. Oh well.

The entire conversation just assumes that Twitter had too many people and needs to be slimmed down. Is that not the propaganda the new owner has pushed? Why take it as fact? Seems like he’s just doing the usual private equity things that we

My other favorite is the Really Nice Images plugin for Lightroom. Very pleasing results on my Nikon Z6 RAW files--better to me than Apple's iPhone processing--by essentially just clicking the filter you want and adjusting a strength sl

Just shoot your mirrorless in RAW and process them later. Lightroom gives great results, but you can also use Apple Photos to get similar color processing as your iPhone photos. The mirrorless photos will look much better on a laptop or big

So it’s a 30% tax on the digital economy? The first iPhone didn’t even have an App Store, it can be a viable business without all this.

Same here! I was like “wow, this is what it’s like to not be so cynical and defensive and anxious all the time!” I lived like that for 15 years :(
