If you have tried the completions in copilot, you are right. They are complete garbage. Windsurfs on the other hand are much better. The only issue is that windsurf is super aggressive about them, but it is able to do do things like "t

LLMs improve faster than I do. Anyway its like getting better at running because bicycles became a thing: a) pretty soon you are not going to be able to keep up and b) you are better of buying one anyway.

I wish the author had state out right that they were not using LLMs much, since their opinion on them and their output has no value (its a new technology, and different enough that you do have to spend some time with them in order to be abl

I really like my speech-to-text program, and I find using ChatGPT to look up things and answer questions is a much superior experience to Google, but otherwise, I completely agree with you. Companies see that AI is a buzzword that means you

I used it to place some old vacation photos. These were taken without EXIF for GPS (because the cameras did not have GPS), and it was still very good. With anything turisty it got them immediately, and with my photo of a house on the Muese

I would love to do that for my homelab, but not all docker containers trust root certs from the system so getting it right would have been a bigger challenge than dns hacking to get a valid certificate for something that can’t be accessed f

In his case, the contract had something different, and they did not pay the actual invoice - that's the shady part. With contractors, you have more freedom of choice when you write the contracts, but whatever contract you agree on, you

Exactly. It's a new administration who has done some, shall we say, questionable things to the economy. That is going to have an impact on people. Which means they're going to spend less money in stores, especially those who have

I don't buy it. If they had an API Booking would not likely return their data to you, they would almost certainly have an API that you would search and which would then return the same result you get on their website. Probably with som

This seems a case of extracting a lot of information from very little data. The economy is in a weird situation. The situation is extremely fluid. And people who can afford to buy groceries, partially with a subscription service, are also t

Cool. Those that mean I could just run the query through the router and then load only the required expert? That is could I feasibly run this on my Macbook?

Agreed. Its not just that its better, it is also that most of the settings for Linux ends up not using the same desktop you would get if you were sitting in front of it. I still haven't found a solution for where I can login over the n

It doesn't seem clear, but can the model do correct emphesis? On things like single words: I did not steal that horse Is the trivial example of something where intonation of the single word is what matters. More importantly if you are

Cool, but playwright doesn’t use your cookies. Increasingly I want to stop spending time on twitter, but it’s also where the AI news drops first - and I can’t just scrape the data without being logged in. If there was a way to have the ai g

That ship has sailed. There are websites I depend on that can't use Firefox because it doesn't work with Firefox no, those websites are not going to update themselves for something that is used by 0.1% of the web. And now Firefox

I see a reference to the comment, a guiardian article about the article but not the article itself. Perhaps it’s softnuked in the eu or something?

Does the value of a company matter for their bonds? As I understand it, Twitter is breaking even given all expenses, which means that they should not have problems paying back their debt. In which case, the investment seems solid. If we wer
