I'm curious around the discussion of what this means for twitter and social media under Elon's new rule, rather than highlighting the movie itself, which I'd rather watch in the movie theater.

If your page loads are slower than 200ms, I'd actually suggest having modals. Or at least some way of progressively showing more information (toggles, accordions, etc.) that stay on page. SPA page loads can get really slow, which can f

This looks really nice, but I wouldn't pay $300/mo for it. I'm already using Notion and Airtable as a headless CMS, and wouldn't be able to justify spending $3000/yr to switch off of it... The reason we use Notion a

How does this compare with PrivateGPT ( https://github.com/imartinez/privateGPT ) How long do y'all think it'll take for production-ready projects like this to effectively be run on something like an M2 chip?

I help run a microbiology / phage biology conference. Our team is tiny and volunteer. Previous years we needed an army of interns / undergrads to do a lot of the work; this year we're using an Army of Interns. Tasks include:

Well tbh, I tried to go through the regular support channels and the "Was this incorrectly flagged" path, and it wouldn't allow me to post anything (since I'm just a dev on the account, not the owner). Then I panicked, b

It looks like the site was taken over by a squatter who replaced it with adult content. This goes to show how important it is to buy domains for multiple years...

Hey @dang could you please edit the post to be resolved or help me delete the post? Somehow I'm unable to edit or delete at this point. Thanks!!

Thank you Stripe — your support is amazing. So what happened was, the non-profit and owner of the Stripe account lost access to their organization website to a squatter, which replaced the site with adult content. So even though the event w

Thank you so much!! It's also 1am here so I have to go to bed soon (Sydney time) and I'm the only dev person, but I'll try to stay up as late as I can.

Well, phage therapy is one of the tracks, so maybe they're pro-microbial resistance?

I tried Paypal last year and for some reason it stopped taking payments half way through the registration period. They had me work with a team of engineers and it turns out it was some gnarly bug on their end, so I spent like 30 hours debug

I've lived in Sydney for about a year. I couldn't really pin down what I felt was "wrong" with this country, until I read this post. This gets almost everything right about this place.

it's using "overlapping chunking" methods and it usually works for generic PDFs. It really falls apart on technical documents, SOPs and research articles where you need to get context from chunks way above. Using vector DBs a

I use Phind.com + co-pilot + GPT-4 to write code daily. I just tried using Bard for summarizing my blog post as it has a larger context window than GPT-4 and it worked really well, so I'm adding that to my workflow. Separately I like c

Could someone please share a good resource for building a machine from scratch, for doing simple-ish training and running open-source models like Llama? I'd love to run some of these and even train them from scratch, and I'd love

paulg equates "writing" with "writing for a public audience for exposure bucks". He probably feels like writing inwardly for the purpose of thinking for yourself, e.g. in your own notes and notebooks, isn't really w

This still feels super complicated... idk I just used Sveltekit + Airtable and Notion as CMS (cached with Cloudflare). Deployed on Vercel's free tier. Cloudflare workers for certain functions (like grabbing stuff from Notion), and now
