Are you talking about the web specifically, or more as a 'fundamental principle'?

yup. I considered myself an /extremely/ verbal person when reasoning, but what I do with the above feels closest to 'moving the 1', almost like balancing a mental scale. I never really noticed that before. I'm not g

I've played it for a few hours and it's the most fun I've had in a sense that games like Outer Worlds were fun in a toyboxy, novel way (or perhaps Baba is You, which I found to hard?) I'm usually not a big fan of what ar

I suppose with an eye on open-source, an interesting 'rule' would be to set a cut-off point for models that can run locally, and/or are considered to be feasible locally soon.

At least 2 seems unlikely in isolation to me. almost everyone I know who is somewhat 'digitally-savvy' (and even some others) use GPT for various things. I, as a very early adopter, use llm's of various kinds for more and mor

iirc the 3GS was when I bought an iphone and shortly after they exploded in popularity in amsterdam. So that would also roughly line up (4 was 2010?)

Once GPT-4+ has also sucked in all frames of (curated) video and audio, I imagine it's 'concept' of a cat will be quite a bit better. While that might not directly impact your (wonderful!) example, I tend to assume it'll

I use emacs/org-mode, and just integrating gpt into that has made a world of difference in how I use it (gptel.el)! Can highly recommend it. The outlining features and the ability to quickly zoom in or out of 'branches', as w

I was about to ask you to get around the campfire and tell the story again, but I see other commenters got ahead of me :). I'll be getting another Klein bottle soon for a gift, if you still do those :). Hope you're doing well!

Meanwhile, the common folk will sit in the iCubicle homes with just AirGlasses and subscriptions for everything, including the virtual furniture and the Fortnite Metaverse as the then-facebook to glue it all together. I'm honestly a li

I worked my way back through their catalogue and I have to say I love each of them in such a particular way that I couldn't call any one the best, including Elden Ring. Which was the most fun I had in probably years. While one starts t

Ha, I'm obsessively experimenting on myself with that these months! Like everyone else, I imagine. It's really quite effective, and I find that much of the problem (aside from cost!) is uncomfortably stripped down to just UX. Whic

I love how the author is calling todo apps lazy. That said, I do feel that too often especially us computer users are able to conflate the tool for the work because the tool is just so damn interesting. Todo apps are really just particular

I've found that any non-techie I know who uses ChatGPT uses it in a similar way, and for quite a bit of stuff. The ones that don't usually haven't really used it much, if at all. But I still feel most of them are in the '
