It’s kinda dumb that Wikipedia still treats newspapers as some sort of ultimate truth. I’ve noticed a couple incidents recently where the news just literally had the facts wrong and the Wikipedia article for the related topic ended up in th

This seems great. It’s similar to https://ambiph.one/ And I have to say that I like that it offers a PWA version. Would you do a PWA?

It's also dismissive of a million different types of art and expression that don't have the benefit of this type of platform. Art and its value is always intertwined with artist. Is art diminished when it's known that the art

In the future, our phone contacts will store name, address, phone number, voice model. (The messed up part will be that the user doesn’t necessarily send their model, but the model could be crafted from previous calls) You could probably al

It’s not absurd to think that you could send a model of your voice to a receiving party and then have your audio call just essentially be encoded text that gets thrown through the voice generator on the local machine. AI video could mean th

You’re talking to the wrong horse though. Isn’t a 737-8 the max 8 variant? It uses newer dual CFM LEAP-1B engines. How does it compare? I can’t really find the data. The spec you’re referring to is for the older 737-800. Another fortune coo

That’s the point? I wasn’t suggesting it was correct. Just that the value is wildly different from their own non-cited number. The next stage was to get a citation from an actual datasheet. Their reasoning was nothing beyond “I’ve read”

I was using it to question that exact stated fuel consumption number without a citation. For hard data (like fuel consumption) getting a value from an LLM isn’t absurd.

You also made me think. I think the problem lies in the nature of “threaded” discussions. The information was useful, but it wasn’t necessarily a “reply” to any particular comment. But, the design here leaves no other choice when adding it.

Chicken Gun: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chicken_gun I’m pretty sure NASA used a version of this to test the resiliency of the space shuttle tiles. Not fast enough to cook tho.

It’s terrible from a UX standpoint. By definition, translucent elements present more potential information to a user. It makes it harder to parse certain screens. It’s a nightmare if you have subtle vision issues (where it’s not bad enough

I think you missed the point. Presenting information in different ways is useful (and the method of display can offer informational insights itself). And for different users it might help parse larger connections. And by using the LLM to su

How is "the earth is flat" not an opinion? People form opinions based on the information they have (or are willing to accept). For their worldview, their opinion is valid. If they don't accept certain voices of reason, they
