Nothing more fun than telling your dreams to ChatGPT. Especially if it already has learned the details of the dream-world you are often living in.

The most famous literary expression of this idea comes from F. Scott Fitzgerald in The Great Gatsby. While discussing the tedious nature of listening to others recount their dreams, there is a general literary consensus often attributed to

I have the best. Natural noise generator, which means microphones outside. With 3 layered windows the winter is just too silent, or rather: filled annoying multistory house noises. In summertime windows are open and that is about the suitab

I asked Gemini to make sensible & readable version: https://github.com/timonoko/Jogwheel/blob/main/jogwheel_gem.... But did not improve much, except variable names are now less esoteric.

This is a hard problem. Solvable only with try and error. Those signals are just weird mess of coils, switches and resistors. ESP32 clock speed may also be a contributing factor.

One ISO mishap I had recently. I tried to fit fat 47-622 to narrow 23-622 rim. Looked I ok, but when I raised pressure the rim cracked length-wise along the spoke-holes. Never heard this happening to anybody.

Hey Gemini, can you describe the imperial bicycle tire sizes compared to ISO in concise and preferably comical way? Trying to understand imperial bicycle tire sizing is like trying to learn a language where the grammar rules change based on

Gemini-cli made very good laser cutter methinks. Inkscape drove me nuts. From shape to GCODE directly. SVG considered superfluous. https://github.com/timonoko/laser-cutting-contours

Gemini-cli works on termux. I have learned for example that there is TRAP and TIMEOUT commands in BASH. "Turn the brightness full on entry and normal on exit" seemed unsolvable because I did not know about TRAP.

I actually thought that the "Computer" was some kind of abstract construct in 1971. And "programs" were just a method of expressing algorithms in textual manner. Only when we were allowed to have brief interactions with

I saw TV first time in 1957. Finland had no TV transmitters, so programs came from Soviet Estonia. I distinctly remember watching romantic Russian film with a catching tune. Perhaps named "Moscow Lights"? How this is even possible

Wasnt Germany weirdly anti-nukular already 60 years ago. Where did it came from? I remember in a train 1971 passing some Nuclear Towers and whole train expressed displeasement at the scenery. Kinda scary actually, because they started stari

Nearest nonhuman intelligence seems to be the only one to appreciate this approach. It shortens the code and also search space as it is easier to recognize symmetries.

It would be much funnier, if the Cube was at origo. So indexes are {-1,0,+1}. And thus Cube[0,0,0] is empty, or maybe there is a ball with 6 screw-holes in it.

It is clearly broken and very-very-very deeply so. On organizational level. Quote Gemini: This error is the "smoking gun." It confirms that no matter how we quote the command, your shell is treating the comma as a separator fo

No. There is impossible situation between filter and the main program, where the filter arguments are not used and the main line is left to deal with leftovers. If you could actually read and study those two solutions, you could notice that
