This is cool. In the early days of go there was a 'netchan' that acted as a Go channel but over the network. It was discontinued because Rob Pike couldn't find a clean design. There have been many attempts to bring it back in

Thanks for actually trying it out! I must admit, I didn't pay much attention to UX for installation here since it was mostly for my own use, but that's great you got it working! What do you think? I have not solved the bouncing ic

Thanks! Yes, to be clear I was rewriting it in Swift which I'm new at, so I appreciate the expert advice there.

Detecting an alt-key push even when it's not an active window, and editing the selected text field are both accessibility permissions. Thanks for the info about your app. It looks great!

- MacOS native dictation, in my experience, is slow to start up (indeterminate delay after pressing the dictation key) - The accuracy is decent but the vocabulary is very limited. With Whisper, you can customize the prompt to include indust

I have a Python script on my mac that detects when I press-and-hold the right option key, and records audio while it's pressed. On release, it transcribes it with whispercpp and pastes it. Makes it very easy to record quick voice notes

I'd note that the 2013 MBP also has an SSD that hasn't experienced any problems so far.

Free credit monitoring for a year, then ato-renews at $89.99/yr after that. Oh, and to sign up for credit monitoring you have to share even more personal data with them, but they pinky promise not to lose it this time.

I loved Android back when I had the time to hack around with ROMs and crazy customization. It's fun. But these days in my busy working life, I don't have time for that kind of stuff, I just want something that works well and gets

I bought a MacBook Pro in 2013 and my mom bought a Dell XPS at around the same time. Her laptop died, she got a Lenovo Yoga. That one died within a year and was replaced for free. The new one died after two years. When the M1 Air came out

Most cities have a coastline or a river that you can walk a great distance along.

Surprised to see negative comments here. I don't think Xiaomi is marketing this as a replacement for a real dog - rather, it's an open source robotic platform that can be used for building fun, interactive games and programs.

I spotted a series of signs posted near me (irl) that only contained hex characters. I was curious and thought it might be some sort of Cicada 3301-type nonsense, so I transcribed all of the signs and tested multiple combinations to discove

I have a MyQ garage door and it works great. I have it set up to notify me if it's left open for more than a few minutes

I have found that an Apple Watch keeps me from touching my phone much of the time. Things like verifying an OTP or determining whether or not a notification is important are just a glance at my watch.

I used the Docker instructions on their website. Just follow it very closely and make sure the right ports are opened. Then work on configuring it. You can adjust the video quality up to 1440p in the config.js - this quality blows away Zoom

Function Calling is fine-tuned to a certain output format, but it very often strays from that format. My function-calling-handling code has a mess of edge case handlers that catch when GPT-4 is calling functions incorrectly.

Too late, it took me an hour to spin up a self-hosted Jitsi instance and I have no reason to switch back.

Yeah... It might be a scam. I haven't tried to buy one.

I've seen M1 Mac Minis for sale under $200. With Asahi Linux that could be a very fast and energy efficient home server.

Hear me out: So you have millions of Software Engineers flying in Boeing planes every year, right? They could be valuable free labor while in the air! We just have to modify the in-flight WiFi so all you can do is clone the Boeing monorepo,

I'm curious what your process is. 1.5% is pretty pricy. Typically, you should be paying 1bps to convert your cash to stablecoins, a few cents to send those stablecoins, and then redeeming them for free on the other side.

Halfway through part one and I'm hooked! Thanks for writing this. It's something I didn't know I needed.

Programming was more fun before I learned how to import libraries. So many things I wrote from scratch... JSON parsers, distributed K/V stores, optimization algorithms, UI frameworks etc. From 17-21 nobody expected me to be Uber-produc

Sudoku is a decent example (which has apparently been solved, but only through very specific prompting [1]), though I would be more interested in puzzles that require a lot of arithmetic, since it's already clear that GPT-4 struggles w

That's just survivorship bias. You only read about the very few authors that found success. The Author's Guild survey of 5,000+ authors[1], the largest such survey ever conducted, found an author's median earnings is $6,080 p
