I haven't seen any tho I haven't really been looking. Mostly it's messing with prompts and looking at data. I hope to write about it eventually, tho probably in the context of the self reflection use case. I don't think

Um yes ITPs are the unlock for specifically math collaboration. I was referring to other more subjective fields that can also benefit from tech that allows collaboration to scale. LLMs have value for those. For math, LLMs suck.

Rating content in a dataset to determine if we need to review it as I'm standardizing a large dataset right now to improve user experience. It's a relatively mundane activity but I think this is tentatively a good method. I'v

verifying/enforcing standards on inputs is not something that only AI unlocks, but LLMs are an example of huge step forward in this kind of work and I was expressing my general enthusiasm for the new tools we now have for these sorts

The coolest thing about Machine Assisted Proofs is the idea of expanding collaborators on a single large problem by orders of magnitude by breaking up work into small machine-verifiable pieces. This to me is one of the exciting core capabil

This was so cool, I really want to see this (and thermal, and...) integrated into devices so we get the full tricorder thing going on. I hadn't considered acoustics being a whole class of use case for maintenance, but imagine if we had

Good point about the adaptivity. Yeah the omission of any examples with themes really shows the silo’d nature of Microsoft, and makes it look like the whole project was low effort and built by people who aren’t even designers and were just

To some extent. Fluent1 is utterly charmless and not even good at usability (is this square a button? why are these icons so thin and illegible?). It looked at the already bad trend of flat design and decided it wasn’t flat enough and need

Agree, tho it can also be good to have a more narrowly defined & catchy concept handle [1] to discuss specific phenomena, even if it's just a name that represents a bundle of things we already understand. Can make discussion move a

Thanks. Guess I'm not impressed, some are fine layout-wise but overall these look like basic rather ugly forms. These might have been fine 10-15 years ago but the bar is higher these days, the style you get out of the box is essentiall

This is so weird. Why would anyone adopt a UI framework from a team that can't even put together decent website for their UI framework? The site shows exactly one example (a very ho-hum weather widget) and that requires squinting to se

Ah you're right, though Booking.com started in and is headquartered in Netherlands, its part of Booking Holdings based in the US. Spotify is definitely no money maker. That said, its market share alone would/should put it in the c

Huge missing variable is cognitive impairment from covid. It may affect up to ~20-30% of people several months after getting it [1][2][3], but whatever the exact rate, it's an amount that is orders of magnitude more than the accident r

Agree on the idea of 'infomania' that overtakes us at certain times. But everything requires balance; read too much and you spend too little time thinking and building a base of experience doing . Not a great way to get knowled

Yeah industrial design and ergonomics tend not to have the same goals. Personally I was able to use a Quest 2 for ~1hr without too much issue, but it's not something I'd want to do on the regular. The big product marketing questio

Good review. Most interesting part was at 43:00 discussing the ergonomics and weight, which is the real question for everyone hoping to make this a daily driver. He said he could wear it 45 mins before needing to take it off, that it was

The problem is that in niche tools / gear / whatever, the message 'you must do it this way' plays to the curiosity and concerns of new users looking to get into something. A cottage industry of people have thus sprung up

First thought is weight distribution & stability; thumbs and fingers at the bottom 2-3" of a 9" long top-heavy 300g+ weight seems problematic. They talk about how to hold it in this video [1] but don't address the typing

I think you might be interpreting my point about SNR narrowly and literally, when I meant it in the broadest sense. Obviously social networks are not solely about exchanging information (which I never said...), they serve all sorts of other
