I tried a professional headshot prompt on the flux playground with a tired gym selfie and it kept it as myself, same expression, sweat, skin tone and all. It was like a background swap, then I expanded it to "make a professional heads

How much of it was the UI, and how much of was the non-ux code? Could've you achieved many of the same gains by creating a local backend in rust for things like indexing and leaving the UI as a more lightweight electron app while savi

You can provide vscode, vim and emacs all in some web interface, and those are plenty good enough for those use cases. Choosing the plugin list for each would also be a good bikeshedding exercise for the department. Even IntelliJ has gatew

Actual regulated drugs are also not that great either. Sometimes these grey market peptides might be tested better than actual FDA-regulated medications. Just dig into Aurobindo and how they literally destroy records and more. An aurobind

The emotional way that humans think when buying products is similarly unfair. Only the 90th percentile is truly 'satisfactory'. The implied question is when would Joe Average and everyone else stop moving the goal posts to the q

So, do you mean you don't like tone policing? You can say pretty much anything as long as the tone stays intellectual and doesn't go into brain damage politics, harassment, or conspiracy zone where it's being banned because

I bought a little garden on aliexpress from the guy who makes it. It's very plug and play and it does about 350-1100nm, which is pretty impressive. I used it to verify how my own DIY sun reproduction setup works. https://

He hasn't given a spectrometer graph? When you ask him for one he can't seem to be bothered by something so basic either. I don't think he would beat an array of 4 amaran 200x S lights on light output or spectrum quality be

A little garden spectrometer is pretty good, and around $60: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LxQmaJYMOAk . And the LED supplier should give a spectrometer graph. If you can get a dual peak LED that will give a better spec

I did something similar last year, but I was more focused on spectrum and used high powered movie lights, since their spectrum output is much better and you get a lot of lux. You can get most of the parallel light ray effect by adding a hy

LLMs are better at formally verifiable tasks like coding, also coding makes more money on a pure demand basis so development for it gets more resources. In descriptive science fields, it's not great because science fields don't g

If you listen to the histrionics that NIMBYs say, it's an example legislation that would lead to typical NIMBY histrionics, but when implemented leads to none of those claimed issues, because it doesn't get used that much. "S

Probably an agreeability thing? The iconoclasts who get things done tend to be disagreeable, but success at a reality scale is different than success in a large company. You get promoted and go up because of your peer coworker group's

There is a niceness to more kinesthetic input devices, to dials, knobs, and pens. I'm always experimenting with trying more. The unfortunate thing is they tend to be niche and unsupported. Try finding a nice dial to control things

IMO there has been something rotten in the Siri house for 7+ years. It was bad even back then compared to competitors like alexa or google on a pure voice assistant basis. Open-ish models like Whisper translated speech to text far better

It's because people are different, sometimes on a genetic level. What works well for one person does not work well at all for another, like the parent commenter, I do not work well without carbs. Keto puts me in a low-energy, semi-de
