It's an improvement but...I've asked it to do some really simple tasks and it'll occasionally do them in the most roundabout way you could imagine. Like, let's source a bash file that creates and reads a state file to do something for which the functionality was already built-in. Say I'm a little skeptical of this solution and plug it into a new o1-preview prompt to double check the solution, and it starts by critiquing the bash script and error handling instead of seeing that the functionality is baked in and it's plainly documented. Other errors have been more subtle.

When it works, it's pretty good, and sometimes great. But when failure modes look like the above I'm very wary of accepting its output.
this really sucks, it's by far the best reader app out there. Hoping that people will be able to figure out a straightforward way to do self-hosting, because I would be willing to use the app as it is right now forever.
As a hack, this is great. As a thing I would actually use? Very, very unlikely.

- I would never use a random QR code in public and I wouldn’t ask anyone else to.

- Pranking seems like an issue.

- If I know someone, they’ll text me they’ve arrived. If I don’t know someone, there are two main cases: delivery person, who is going to pound the door and leave immediately (and I’ll get a notification of delivery); and religious proselytizers, political door-knockers, and solar company sales people, none of whom I care remotely about talking to.

Again, as a project, this is delightful. But as a thing to incorporate into my home, I can’t see the use case.

EDIT: Also, criminals. They’re not going to use a QR code to see if I’m home.
FWIW, I was able to get a decent way into making my own client for ChatGPT by asking the free 3.5 version to do JS for me* before it was made redundant by the real app, so this shouldn't be too hard if you want a specific experience/workflow?

* I'm iOS by experience; my main professional JS experience was something like a year before jQuery came out, so I kinda need an LLM to catch me up for anything HTML

Also, I wanted HTML rather than native for this.
Ética: La ética se entiende como la ciencia que estudia los principios de la moralidad, es decir, se mueve en el plano de la reflexión teórica, haciéndose preguntas como qué consideramos una conducta buena o mala.
Moral: Mientras que la moral es el conjunto de normas, valores y principios que guían el comportamiento humano en una sociedad o grupo específico, basada en las creencias y prácticas de ésta, moviéndose en el plano de la reflexión práctica. (Otros términos relacionados: Inmoral: contrario al bien; amoral: no tiene sentido del bien ni del mal). Por ejemplo: dispararle a un transeúnte con un arma es un acto inmoral, pero fabricar el arma en sí misma es un acto amoral, ya que esa misma arma podría ser utilizada para cazar y proveer de sustento a una familia, o para defenderla de animales salvajes.
The fairness doctrine only ever applied to broadcast TV and radio. It was considered constitutional on the grounds that these were limited public resources. It never applied to newspapers, cable TV, or web sites, which were far less limited.

It was never really the reason that news broadcasts aimed for fairness. They aimed for fairness because they were journalists, and they considered it a point of pride to be accurate and informative.

The broadcast networks (including Fox affiliates) still aim for that, despite the end of the fairness doctrine. But their markets have been eaten into by cable networks, some of which were explicitly founded as propaganda machines and discovered that people preferred it as entertainment.
The OP said they had it use another HTML page as a style reference. Pandoc couldn't do that. Just like millions of other specific tasks.

The best advice received and relayed by me regarding posture might surprise you.
If you struggle with posture, stop caring about what other people might think about your posture. Changing/Tweaking posture all the time might look bad, but it also tends to mitigate the effects of being frozen in bad posture(!) The health impact is too significant to ignore.

The amount of curve also varies a lot between models so there's some nuance even within that. The curve might be as strong as 800R or as weak as 2300R depending on the monitor, where the number corresponds to the radius of the circle the panel follows in millimeters.

If you are on Linux, you can divide the entire screen into multiple virtual monitors and share only one of them. This has the benefit of giving you "private" monitors what won't be shared.

Another option could be to temporarily lower the resolution.
Not a lawyer either, but I believe regulations on speech, as here, are scrutinized ("strictly") such that regulations are not allowed to discriminate based on content. Moderation is usually based on content. Whether something is fact or not, opinion or not, is content-based.

Citizens United held that criminalizing political films is illegal. Allowing Fahrenheit 9/11 to be advertised and performed but criminalizing Hillary: The Movie is exactly why Citizens United was correct and the illiberal leftists are wrong.

It sounds like we use LLMs similarly. I've been a bit worried I'm missing out on some of these more sophisticated tools, but I kinda figured it would go like this. Likewise, anything with 'copilot' in the name is fucking garbage.

In the future, we might not have to helicopter-parent the context window, but we definitely aren't there yet. I suspect nearly everyone who speaks poorly of LLMs simply hasn't figured this out yet.

I have created two simple scripts to help me with this workflow, `pc` and `po`. `pc` accepts a list of files and concatenates sanitized versions into the clipboard buffer, each file enclosed in triple backticks and prefixed with its filename. `po` accepts a single file, reverses sanitization and displays a diff between clipboard buffer and the specified file. It's not much, but it significant accelerates this workflow for me.

If the whole world hasn't completely left me behind by next week, I might look into adding some sort of AST-based diff/merge in `po`. It'd be nice not needing to constantly remind the LLM to output only changed files, complete, with no omissions.

I wanted to go down this path some months ago, but couldn't find any options on the market. I ended up with a 42" 4k LG C3, but it's just "ok" because I can easily see pixels. I wanted to use the room as dual use work/watch movies, but without the need to watch movies I'd probably go back to a wide screen curved display.
I'm the same. I use a single 27" 4k monitor and use virtual desktops. The best upgrade for me though was getting a computer prescription for some glasses that I keep on my desk.

Sometimes I think about upgrading to a 5k monitor. The Apple Studio Display looks great, but I'm a Windows user and I'm guessing a lot of the nice features of that display are Mac-only.

There aren't a whole lot of options for 5k monitors. Other than Apple I think there's a Dell, but it's too wide. There's a Samsung but I've been burned by Samsung too many times. There's also an LG 5k monitor but it gets pretty weak reviews.
Same for me. I just tried a curved 27 inches monitor and I hate it.
Depends what you want it for.

Right now, I find each tool better at different things.

If I can only describe what I want but don't know key words, LLM are the only solution.

If I need citations, LLMs suck.

I wonder what the math would look like to properly render 3D scenes onto a curved display. Could it be accelerated as well as the regular matrix operations used for perspective projection onto planar screens?

During the pandemic I did try out my 4K TV as a game monitor. I had a combination of furniture so that I could sit rather close with my eyes approximately half way up the screen, with a keyboard and mouse in a reasonable position. Then, using an older FPS game I got it to where my laptop GPU could hit good frame rates and I adjusted the game's viewing angle to match how the screen fit my field of view.

It was deeply immersive in spite of me being so close I could "see the pixels". The only time I've felt more immersive was demoing Quake in a 3 wall + floor CAVE at a national lab decades ago.

Are you sure you're using Claude 3.5 Sonnet? In my experience it's absolutely capable of writing entire small applications based off a detailed spec I give it, which don't exist on GitHub or Stack Overflow. It makes some mistakes, especially for underspecified things, but generally it can fix them with further prompting.

Calories are a measure of energy, NOT nutritional value.

Forget calories, think utility.

Some types of calories are good for you, others may as well be poison - therefore, the dose is the poison. By consuming calories in accordance with their utility you will do a better job at staying (or getting) metabolically healthy than only counting calories.

TL;DR: Eat more fat and protein from natural, preferably animal, sources, and you will naturally be less inclined to consume junk calories from carbohydrates and you will quickly feel better for it.

Watch this video below to understand more, for why this is the case, and why colories in v's calories out is a very poor model.

> The bezels and gaps in between the monitors introduce distractions and one is limited in how one may arrange terminals and windows across multiple displays.

To me, the segmentation is a feature. It lets me offload information density and focus. For example, I commonly have an editor on one screen, a browser on the second, and something like a chat app, terminal, etc on the laptop screen.

Then fill in the details. I just spend a few hours before a review doing it, instead of painstakingly curating a list over time. Trust your memory, if something wasn't important enough to remember, then it probably wasn't important to begin with.

I do also keep a `career-dev` repo in my GitHub, and make a new markdown file for each year. There I can put things like Mermaid Gantt charts and other diagrams, including work artifacts, and then send the whole file to my manager. I got the maximum raise possible last year, and my manager greatly appreciated the work I put in to make his life easier in justifying a raise for me.
The drumbeat against the 1st Amendment (Hillary, Kerry, news pundits...). They're all talking about how "problematic" and "constraining" the first amendment is, and how it "gets in their way" to govern because they can't control the narrative.

They seem to be missing the irony in their complaints; the constraint is intended upon those doing the governing.
I don't know... I am only using it in the Bay Area. I noticed there are coordinates in the URL that one could try changing, but it is possible they are only running the model for the Bay Area right now?

I've also wondered if they have hand tuned the model to match local observations and geography in the Bay Area, and if it could generally apply elsewhere without a lot of manual work? In particular, it is mind blowingly accurate at getting the wind shadow around Angel Island, which is a complex thing to do, because it involves ocean wind that divides into at least 3 separate streams, and then recombines in complex ways. No other model I've seen can predict which of those 3 stream will dominate, but they usually can.

I've noticed the same with e.g. car navigation/map software- it generally works much better in the Bay Area where the developers and companies making them actually live, than elsewhere. I could imagine that in both cases the developers use it themselves in the place they live, and investigate/fix local errors themselves.

The MBP is over twice as much and you're still going to buy a keyboard, mouse, and screen for your desk. Portability is nice, but for many people I suspect the use case is too narrow -- for most things you need to do when you are not at your desk computer, the smartphone suffices.
It is however important to note that allowing kings to be taken can result in both kings being traded which by the scoring function would be considered neutral. This possibility does not occur in normal games so a search with that modification may generate the wrong value.

Games would need to also be stopped when a king is taken to make the search approximately correct.
For 1 and 2, I would say it totally boils down to personal preference an distance/size ratio. For 3, again, distance to the screen matters a lot.

The 4th one I've seen the most heated discussions about. In my opinion, highest you can afford (both money-wise and computational power-wise) is the most useful resolution. Even if you can't distinguish the individual pixels (aka screen door effect) aliasing is still an issue.

Apple has never put any technical or legal obstacles in the way of installing other operating systems on Mac hardware. Nor do they assist in any way, it's consistent benign neglect.

The old Intel machines made excellent Linux boxes, excepting the TouchBar era because the TouchBar sucked (it was possible to install Linux, it would display the fake function keys, they worked, but not a good experience). I've converted two non-TouchBar Mac laptops into Linux machines, with zero complaints, one of them is in current use (not the laptop I'm typing on this instant however).

Now there's Asahi, which as a sibling comment points out, will surely be supported for M4 eventually. This is a great time to buy the M2 Minis and put Linux on them, if that's what you're into. Or you can wait around for the M4 port, whatever suits your needs.
my experience is that o1 is still slightly better for coding, sonnet new is better for analyzing data, and most other tasks besides coding
Is there a review that demonstrates and corroborates this issue? Is it a difficult problem if choosing to buy a new display for a Mac mini? My old display is 10 years old and I would have to get a new one then.
> You can even use the same TV for 4K 120 Hz gaming or watching movies as a bonus!

But you can't use the computer at the same time then. With a 3 monitor setup I can add an HDMI switch to one of them, and when I want to play, then I can switch that monitor to connect to the PS. This way I have still 2 monitors to use. Then one can be used for TV in the browser and the other one for other stuff.
