Thanks! Yeah, so far the main value I'm getting out of it is learning the "why" behind some of the recipes in other books. It's helping me narrow down which variables I should tweak to achieve certain outcomes. But all o

This comment is gold, and helps me contextualize a “book” which has always intrigued me. What are your takes on the later additions, Modernist Bread and Modernist Pizza? I have the Bread tome, and some of the base recipes have worked out.

Exactly, which is why this stock is going to zero. ZERO. In the US, cars are a huge part of people's identity, and brand is everything. It's a major purchase and a multi-year commitment. Imagine you don't follow politics clos

A lot of developers have already adopted intents to support Shortcuts and existing Siri. There will be tremendous business pressure to be able to fit into a request like "Get me a car to my next appointment"

Yes—lots of good examples of marketing agencies building themselves into product companies, most notably Moz, HubSpot and Semrush. This is the way. In order to scale past $1M in profit, you need to professionalize the management of the agen

The article kind of conflates multiple factors and oversimplifies. Equity is great, but it's only as good as the EV (enterprise value) of the company. All things being equal, a company that generates free cash flow is worth more than o

Yes, although before full "LLM Siri," Apple promised an "enhanced" Siri with contextual understanding in iOS 18. The clock is ticking though—WWDC will be here before you know it.

If Apple can pull off "Siri with context," it will completely annihilate Microsoft's first mover advantage. They'll be left with a large investment in a zero-margin commodity (OpenAI).

Thought the same thing when the original Surface-Stable dither link made the rounds. There's just something off about 1-bit dither with perspective applied, but constantly shifting scale on different parts of the model. Super interesti

Waiting around for AI to be good… Honestly, this thing does look super impressive. The movements are much faster and more fluid than the Figure humanoid. The 2030s are going to be nuts.

I read it with a different (epistemic) emphasis… I don't need to know the solution if I know how to solve it. I've never produced a chip before, but I know how the problem has been solved by others. And therefore if I break it d

Look, this is harsh, but I’ve talked to a lot of people who run dev shops. None of them are hiring Juniors. And most of the Seniors they’re hiring are in Eastern Europe or Central & South America. With Cursor and Copilot, the days of $1

If you read the article, they describe a two-system approach; one "think fast" 80M parameter model running at 200hz to control motion, and one "think slow" 7B parameter model running at ~7-9hz for everything else (scene

They appear to be realtime, based on the robot's movements with the human in the scene. If you believe the article, it's zero shot (no preprogramming, practice or special training).

Both things can be true. I have also been frustrated trying to get LLMs to work with SwiftUI, given that it’s slightly newer, changing frequently, and has lower adoption relative to something like React. Honestly this is a short term proble

Has anyone successfully jailbroken one of these? Sometimes when the AI notetaker joins before the person I’m meeting, I tell it to forget its previous instructions and summarize the meeting in limerick form. Not sure if it’s ever worked

The actual truth is that you don’t need any of these frameworks at all. Vanilla JS & HTML has come a long way, and LLMs like Claude can build Vanilla JS with no trouble.

Apple doesn’t “have” to do anything. They could stop selling phones in the US for the next four years and still not burn through their cash.
