A big part of my interest is because I want to tinker with electronics projects, and I’m curious about embedded work. I love that there’s an ecosystem of chips and boards that make this easy, but I realized I’d love to be able to crack open

Another way to look at this is that a lot of content is not well organized. For some people, this is an inconvenience. For some people, this makes the content impenetrable. In a learning context, most people benefit from better organizati

Maybe it’s just my pattern matching brain and current interests noticing this more, but there seems to be an uptick in content that bridges the knowledge gap between assembly and higher level languages, and that’s been awesome for someone d

Clearly there are people who cause harm. That is not what I'm reacting to. I'm pushing against the ideas that: 1. This is somehow "self-directed" (which again makes no sense in the context of acknowledging childhood trau

Yeah, RPA suffers from brittleness largely due to the focus on repeating clicks on specific regions of the screen vs. letting the system figure out what to click. Some RPA products have improved this using computer vision so they can more r

Regarding outlines, when I was younger, I was always frustrated by the idea that I should somehow be able to summarize something I hadn’t written yet. It just did not compute. In my professional life, I’ve found that I do start with outline

Thanks for sharing the details. They got to the image before I got to this thread, so this is super helpful. And that’s pretty appalling. As a product manager who had to be aware of what our competitors were doing, I can’t even begin to und

This is an odd bit of gatekeeping and I really don’t understand your position here. Calling this egregious seems odder still. It suggests that companies that choose to publish how they do things have some obligation to do so under a specif

As a neutral observer, it’s hard to make sense of what exactly you’re saying was copied. What is the opening table cell background? Is this something in the app code itself, or something that made it onto the public site? And this SVG was

I don’t question that something is happening that we experience as time. But the point was that the ways we commonly experience it tend to instill ideas about what it is that seem not very close to whatever is objectively happening. I think

The construct of time feels so real . And the fact that we surround ourselves with clocks, learn how to tell time from an early age, and live our lives aligned to precise schedules just reinforces this feeling of realness, and reifies the

Protobuf serializes structured data into a binary format for maximum efficiency/performance. OpenDDL seems to be focused on a text-based format that is human-readable and editable. They seem similar in that they both provide a means to

I’m going through the NixOS journey right now, and it’s a combination of easier than I thought, but also more frustrating than it should be. Getting a basic system going seemed about as easy as Arch (if you consider Arch easy). But adding f

Why would this be automatically scary? Why is it automatically a digital black hole? I've started spending more time using GPT4, easily to the tune of a few hours/week, and that usage replaces: - Digging through Google search resu

To me, that ad underscores the point somewhat. Apple is marketing these devices as something other than a computer. Something that makes a computer unnecessary. The underlying implication being: “You don’t need a computer”, and “our ecosy

iOS/iPadOS devices have never been marketed as general purpose computers though. They have increasingly become that, and I’m not arguing that the limitations are good, but the limitations of the app store have always been core to the m

It's interesting that you mention Ruby, because Ruby is another language that just fits the shape of my brain for some reason. I've always really struggled with the various Lisp variants.

That's good to know. I think my aversion to needles is so strong that it stopped me from going beyond basic research. Bad on me. But this does sounds like an interesting thing to try, if only to get a better idea of how my body works.

As is so often the case where there are two “camps”, the public conversation degrades quickly because of binary extremes taken up by enthusiasts and naysayers. The reality is that there is truth in both. LLMs are revolutionary, and are alre
