Care to share how you're doing it? I'm a pretty terrible gardener but love potatoes and it looks like this may be an easy way to do it.

I'm very impressed! Using Gpt-4o and Gemini, I've rarely had success when asking the AI models to create a PlantUML flowchart or state machine representation of any moderate complexity. I think this is due to some confusing API do

As the article mentions, this is also used by authors. I went to a book signing for Mark Z. Danielewski, the author of House of Leaves and he mentioned that for his books, he always ends up throwing out the beginning of the book.

I understand the skepticism around AI in ed tech, and I think people have the right to be skeptical of this being portrayed as a "cure all". Saying that it is of no value because nobody will pay for it and the kids wont learn from

My understanding is that most garage door openers do not use rolling keys, they send the same code each time.

At my first real Engineering job, I used this paper to both understand and implement a PID control system. Then by using the Ziegler Nichols method of tuning, the system was controlled way better than anyone had expected. Since then I have

That's a really cool product! The only thing I would love is a way to zoom into the product pictures on the site.

ChatGPT 3.5 is free, but GPT4 is not. I can see a lot of people using something as good or better than GPT4 that is supported by ads and no monthly fee.

The results I get are so-so. The rubric I use to evaluate coding LLM's is to ask it to create a Python script that determines if the contents of a given directory have been changed since the last time the script was run. This should be

The avocado lettuce wraps are really good (I'm mostly vegan). I've taken my young kids (6 and 4) there and it works out great. I usually get this and the kids get whatever they want.

One thing I didn't see discussed anywhere in this entire thread is how impossible it was to get a cab at night (at least in Boston). On a Friday or Saturday night it was absolutely impossible to get a cab past 11:30pm. When I would rar

A fair point, but with the FDA responses taking up to 30 days you burn a lot of runway.

As someone working at a company that has run several clinical trials, this really rings true, especially the segment on language translations.

Getting samples of G4's was pretty easy. Since its a fairly new part, there was a large stock that distributors had for engineering samples. The story is very different for things like the F5/F7's and even getting small sampl

Not the parent, but in my experience, working in a regulated field the pay tends to be better since the stakes are higher and there is a larger push for quality rather than "ship it". I work in the Medical Device space doing embed

I really miss Kozmo. I remember showing the service to my dad and us testing it out by ordering one of the harry potter books shortly after it came out and a pint of Ben & Jerry's.

As a dad myself (2.5 yr old and an almost 1 year old), the negatives do not seem to be exaggerated at all. Going to work as a software engineer is the easiest part of my day, by far. What is not always mentioned are the wonderful parts of i

I read his book by the same name last year when I moved into a house with steam heating. The book goes into great detail and helped me resolve some banging pipes which kept waking me up in the middle of the night. This was after I had 2 hea

So you are suggesting that the purpose of the Bloomberg piece is to actually get access to Apple's data centers? Seems a bit conspiracy minded to me. If that was the end goal, surely there would be easier ways than having your "ag
