Calm down . This is not worth getting worked up about. Contact Anker. There could be regulatory or logistical or other reasons why they aren't rolling this out outside of the US (yet).

Neat! I presume you mean this? https://github.com/lprhodes/moonlight-vision-pro I hadn't heard of this. The app streaming functionality looks really cool.

Tantamount (adjective): Equivalent in meaning or effect. Apple did the same with Apple Watch when sales were low and returns were high. Because they believed in the product. Apple believes in Apple Vision Pro, as well. Hell, I believe i

It might be best to think of it as a publicly-available, very expensive prototype where Apple is throwing spaghetti at the wall and seeing what sticks. If that's not for you, don't buy one. It's certainly not for me at this t

According to the best estimates, a little more than 500,000 Vision Pro units have been sold. Pretty good for what is tantamount to a prototype. It was mentioned somewhere during WWDC that "hundreds of companies" are using Vision P

You are wrong. Citation: I read the post. The purpose of the post is to announce the Foundation Models framework . It's mentioned in the very first paragraph and throughout the post. The Foundation Models framework documentation:

In case others are confused about the term "Foundation Models": "Foundation Models" is an Apple product name for a framework that taps into a bunch of Apple's on-device AI models.

The people still using the AVP that I know of are using it to watch movies and use it as virtual displays for their Macs.

It’s not buildable on Linux. The app uses WinForms and a number of other Windows-only .net libraries. Thanks for the link!

Ollama + M3 Max 36GB Mac. Usually with Python + SQLite3. The models vary depending on the task. DeepSeek distilled has been a favorite for the past several months. I use various smaller (~3B) models for simpler tasks.

There's a couple Apple Shortcuts actions to convert to/from Markdown and Rich Text for Notes, but I can't get them to work correctly.

Concur. This is a pretty good setup. Caveat: I'm using Swift for command-line software.

It's worth learning C. I don't think you need to master it to get a lot of value from it. Consider using C on embedded platforms like esp32, if you want a more "simple" introduction. https://learnxinyminutes.c

I use Cursor and GitHub Copilot as “fancy auto complete”. On rare occasions I use their chat agent but I run into context limits and I generally don’t like LLMs going in and modifying code I’ve already written. I also use Claude to ask gene

by runjake 1y ago
Yeah I strongly disagree with that. I think prompts are very critical. As with any other project, it’s best to specify your wants and needs than to let someone or an LLM to guess.

They do. All over the place. Simon Willison has some great examples in his blog and on his GitHub. Check out Karpathy’s YouTube videos as well. https://simonwillison.net/

You’re not providing a key piece of information to provide you with an answer: what were the prompts you used? You can share your sessions via URL. A prompt like “Write a $x program that does $y” is generally going to produce some pretty po

I can no longer edit my above comment, but I've since been keeping track of purported drone videos on the news and Reddit. It looks to me like these drones are being steered into aircraft by remote human pilots. The control plane adjus

My descriptions were a rough (but working ) theoretical process on how a layman might do things. Something like YOLO would also be very good at this, albeit it would require more compute for suitable performance. You essentially need a dec

First, using Ansible for setting up a single Mac is way overkill. Jeff's only doing it because he literally wrote the book on Ansible. For a single Mac where you want reproducible, just use shell script(s). Anyway, for my Ansible env

Think of it this way: The brain outweighs those tools (for now). The notebook is an extension of thought and the brain. Some of us who grew up in the 1970s and 1980s even used to "program" by handwriting code on paper as kind of a
