Got it. I'm just unsure whether I can use the other uv features like pin with it? That feature feels like it was added and the benefits or trade-offs weren't documented. At least I don't see it.

Since you mentioned uv and the topic is virtual environments... I am using uv and it seems great. I don't understand the difference between using "python -m venv .venv; source .venv/bin/activate" and creating a venv

You can offload authentication to another server and then just use the jwt. Jwt are great in that you can read them transparently and guarantee that they were signed by whatever you trust. It's a bit roll your own but it works well and

Yes. The Timex smart watch is perfect for this. You can find them on eBay for $20. You can get a SIM that works with T-Mobile usually. The only issue is that sometimes they are locked and getting them unlocked is some work. But I love these

I've spent close to a thousand on all the different watches. It depends on the vision and what you could build. I'm definitely interested in discussing it. My email is on my profile page.

How is the watchy? Where can I find a link to that?

Thanks for the comment. Yes, I think I'm giving up on the hackable part. Maybe just something with the basic features of gps, audio recording, data capability. It would be nice to get messaging even if that means data only and not cell

Does this mean I shouldn't worry about my 11 year old son and his fixation on video games right now? It looks like you either figure out when you are 12 or 13 or you don't. That's the moment parents should be watching careful

I would love to see you add a networking layer so that I could connect my frame to a random one somewhere in the universe. Then I could see another person through this style transfer. They could see me. It would be like an art chat roulette

Yes, I love profiles. I use them extensively with firefox. I can't live without Firefox profiles (my use case does not work with Safari or Chrome). I needed to use two tailscale networks on the same machine. And, since I'm crazy,

Deltec makes some great homes that offer similar structural features. And they look nice as well.

As someone who has always dismissed Palantir, I really loved this. It's very powerful and makes me reconsider what I felt about them. But, I'm really stuck on the point about Trump being a capable meme generator. I mean, this feel

I think the main reason to vote for the current administration is because of the actions taken by the FTC in the last four years. It isn't just this last month. I would recommend reading the newsletter "Big" by Matt Stoller f

To the parent, splitbrain just got you to QA this for him. The true cost of software is the maintenance and QA, and he got you to do free work, and here I am doing free work writing about it. How hard we BOTH just got pwned! </joke&

Tangentially related, but when i lived in Rio I would always tell people I thought it was the most beautiful city in the world. Then, a visiting exec asked me: "Well, have you been to Cape Town?"

I appreciate your comment. I suppose my comment is reserved more for the documentation than the actual models in the wild? I do worry that LLM service providers won't do any better than rest API providers in versioning their backend. E

Which ones do you suggest considering?

I want hear more about this. I'm playing with langroid, crew.ai, and dspy and they all layer so many abstractions on top of a shifting LLM landscape. I can't believe anyone is really using them in the way their readme goals profes

I like Hugo but was hoping for something even more minimalistic and suited just for a resume. But I'll do more research. Do you have a good example of a resume on Hugo I could look at? Is your resume project source available? Thanks so

Jess would know, DXOS is also amazing and in this space. I learned about DXOS at the local-first unconference after Strange Loop and was very impressed by Jess and his work.

I'm confused about why you need yolo and llava. Can't you simply use yolo without a multimodal LLM? What does that add? You can use yolo to detect and grab screen coordinates on its own, right?

I'm sad this magazine will be ending soon. They do such great writing. I was at orcas Island recently. I wanted to have my kids hear some good stories about the place, so I started asking anyone I met, "tell me a story about a dan

This is exactly what CNNs do. Recognize patterns in transferrable areas of images. Once that feature map is generated, successive layers just look for the same patterns. We see patterns in faces, and so does AI if it uses a CNN or CNN-like

Lots of ex-twitter and heroku people. They are really thoughtful and community based and are not in silicon valley physically so they have broken out of the groupthink. I met quite a few at the last Strange Loop and it's a really terri

Ink & Switch is like the Medici family of the Internet era. Medici's funded the piano, and I&S is funding local-first. I love what they do.

You are using asdf and zed successfully? I'm so glad to hear this. I removed asdf because I could not get it to recognize the pyproject.toml file. This is working in harmony for you? With Zed and a venv (from python -m venv .venv for e
