I implemented differential sync ( https://neil.fraser.name/writing/sync/ ) mostly because I couldn’t understand anything else and seemed simplest in my grugnotes.com app -- and while the app is pretty janky and not

I use my note app for casual personal crm. No outside sync features, but entry is easy if you’re looking for some variation of simple. https://grugnotes.com

Awesome, thanks for going back to try, and great feedback! 1. It's been fun to implement. Always room for improvement, formatting results is up there. But surprisingly good with simple keywords and rag. There is some fun NLP in there,

Sorry, up now, but I'm still trying to figure the root cause. I've made several adjustments, but it still seems to happen even with quite a bit less traffic right now. The db server is fine, but the Cloudrun/Django side is ge

Yessah! Secret ploy to make sure everyone in tech buys kamanu is working. All kidding aside, I appreciate it.

Very nice! Seems like some of the native apps focusing on audio have done quite well. I hope you are as well. I do keep thinking long form audio and diarization would get me something practical more smb and trades people would consider usin

To the extent that I don't want ai modifying my notes, I agree. But when AI can help organize, tag, and make my life easier, then I'm all in. It's gotten better, but there are still cases where entities are tagged incorrectly

thanks for the heads up. Lowered max concurrent requests and a couple of other small changes. It's not totally solved, but it mostly staying up and seems to come back quickly when it fails. Suppose I need to learn how to load test in t

I'm both the main user and only developer -- so I try to do grug way first in user experience, then in development. I think I've realized that no matter what you set out to do, it gets insanely complex. But user experience is more

Thanks for looking! I'm actually surprised Apple hasn't done this yet. The organizing and search stuff they do with photos, metadata, and image recognition is really great. So I'm sure they will. As a pwa, it'd be a bit

Every block and 'prompt' entity does get embeddings made of it, so the search works pretty well. Kind of with the goal of moving away from tags entirely. I've never found graph views useful, and I don't really tend to cl

I hear you. I have avoided generative stuff, but I'm so lazy I'm quite happy to have it organize. Basically trying to build exactly what I want.

That's valid. I tried a few days ago, but it's pretty terrible and almost 4 minutes! I will shoot for 2 min next time.

this is all a grand scheme to sell canoes to people in tech. :D

I agree, but it is also very difficult to actually do. Either needs hosted or local LLM, right? how else can you process? I try to explain my views clearly on the landing page. And say to use apple, obsidian, or reflect where that is the pr

Does anyone have a good dataset for testing libraries like this? I suppose it's not difficult to generate one these days, but curious if there is a standard.

You should read past the cover page. Guy is legit, cs prof, and a fellow old guy. He’s been at this a long time and by all means should write a modern day marketing book too. Some of his other code is getting pretty wide distribution (in ra

Awesome guys. I had a poster of Helios on my wall growing up. I'd be curious to know more about the construction. 13 lbs for a first prototype is pretty good. I have a 4'x25' autoclave, so if there's anything I can do to

I had the thought that many of those services broken off can now be recombined. No one likes having to use 100 saas products imho.

I have nothing particularly relevant to add. But Paul Theroux bought a canoe from me maybe four years ago. And paddles with some of the local uncles on the North Shore of Oahu. I believe he got quite some joy out of it and that makes me hap
