I'm adding this tidbit of knowledge to my context as well... :-P Only recently have I started interacting with LLM's more (I tried out a previous "use it as a book club partner" suggestion, and it's pretty great!).

But why not some sort of hip-clip and cable for battery, or some sort of laser-tag vest with a Mac mini on the front and a battery on the back? I mean- even the Sony Walkman started with audio streaming from a hip-mounted computer/powe

There was an old blog post that talked about "hot tub communities" ... legend says there was a backyard with a hot tub with a passcode lock. The owner didn't mind people using it until the A-holes showed up and then he'd

I'd forgotten about that one... cosmo/ape (and *.zip) opens up a few interesting use cases for portability, but the in-place editing with web-dav and ability to use the browser as an IDE (file->save) would have to be built-out

I'm a little experienced with TiddlyWiki, from memory: `rclone serve webdav` in the directory with TiddlyWiki will let you "write in place". My use case was a home maintenance wiki/manual, the incredible benefits of some

Discs always used to be in cases/sleeves. The caddies were a natural extension of that same metaphor. 5-1/2: "floppy" plastic outer shell with a rectangle cutout across the disc, and a circle cutout so the disc could be

Caught me in a hallucination! :-P ... per Google it's William James. Voltaire is the "I disapprove of what you say, but I will defend to the death your right to say it", which (per Google), is ALSO not a Voltaire quote, and i

I solved it with different colored calendars in g-cal. Monthly => Rough => Detail => Actual. Monthly is usually dragging a bunch of "all-day" events across multiple weeks. "school ends", "date night?"

We are all stochastic parrots. Statistically, everything you say is correct, but ask yourself- is it any different from your behavior of regurgitating the most likely relevant portions of your knowledge in the way you're guessing is mo

I don't know if you've ever messed with `ctags`, but I used that a long while back with a crufty, large, PERL codebase. It was super nice to have "jump-to-definition", but the vim plugin in vscode is very nice (missing a

I've been using vim forever, and often use "advanced" editing techniques: macros, .-repeat, :g/.../norm ..., occasional templates. For certain projects I'd used `vscode` (with the vim plugin!), and there's

Back in the day there were a bunch of `x2y` programs[1], like html2pdf, xls2csv, rst2odt, jpg2png, png2jpg, etc... You could imagine something like `any2zip`, or `any2tgz` or `iso2mp4` or something. It seems like there could/should be

There was a guide that mentioned "scrabble tile" movement. `fj` is quicker than `fe` because J is way less common than E. Once you get "near", then zeroing in on your target (eg: `fj`, `Fa` for "adjacent") can

Same boat, Apple watch has terrible UX (1cm fingertip in a 2cm screen??!?), tries to do too much and not to my liking. Pebble allows me to walk away from my phone because I will get the notifications (text or phone call) and can see enough

Prefer long args in all cases, especially scripts and teaching. Pipelines allow consistent syntax, but thanks for pointing out all the different variations of file support in jq.
