They got backlash, but (if I'm not mistaken) it was ruled that it's okay to use copyrighted works in your model.

So if a model is copyrighted, you should still be able to use it if you generate a different one based on it. I.e. copyright laundry. I assume this would be similar to how fonts work. You can copyright a font file, but not the actual shapes. So if you re-encode the shapes with different points, that's legal.

But, I don't think a model can be copyrighted. Isn't it the case that something created mechanically can't be copyrighted? It has to be authored by a person.

I find it weird that so many hackers go out of their way to approve of the legal claims of Big AI before it's even settled, instead of undermining Big AI. Isn't the hacker ethos all about decentralization?
Is this faster than A*?

I think that the problem with A* is that it use a mix of horizontal and vertical and 45° lines, but your proposal makes more natural straigh lines. I think it's more nice, but don't think it's more efficient (but I don't have a hard proof).

What I've done was to use composer recursively.

First I had it write stories based on the pages and components. I had obviously to review the work and further add more cases.

Then I had it generate a markdown file where it documented the purpose and usage and apis for those and combined it with user stories written in our project management tool which I copy pasted in different files. It helped our user stories are written in a gerkin-like fashion (when/and/or/then) which is computer-friendly.

As most of the components had unique identifiers in terms of data-test attributes I could further ask it to implement more e2e cases.

Overall I was very satisfied of the cost/benefit ratio.

Stories were the most complicated part as Cursor tended to redeclare mocks multiple times rather than sharing them across, and it wasn't consistent in the API choices it made (storybook has too many ways to accomplish the same thing).

E2Es with Playwright were the easiest part, the criticism here was that I used data attributes (which users don't see) over elements like text. I very much agree with that, as I myself am a fan of testing the way that users would. Problem is that as our application is localized I had to compromise in order to keep them parallel and fast, as many tests do change locale settings which was interfering, as new pages loading had a different locale then expected. I'm not the only one using such attributes for testing, I know it's common practice in big cushy tech too.

One thing I want to note, you can't do it in few prompts, it feels like having to convince the agent to do what you ask him iteratively.

I'm still convinced of the cost/benefits ratio and with practice you get better at prompting. You try to get to the result you want by manual editing and chatting, then feed the example result to generate more.
I re-discovered Tempeh (0) a week ago while trying a new recipe (tomato sauce pasta). Then read a bit about it and WOOOW!!!

- great protein source stuffed with fibers, minerals vitamins and probiotics. Your nutritionist and sport coach loves it.

- intrinsically cheap, doesn’t need tarif or subsidies to make it affordable.

- only two steps from raw beans, you can make it at home if you wish: 1.cook 2.incubate.

- soy beans can be replaced by many others bean. Chickpea tempeh taste like banane popcorn.

- can be adapted to almost any "salty" recipe, like you’ll do with beaf minces. Sauces, woks, lasagna, soups, burger, pizza, sauerkraut, you name it. Even some desserts.

That weird white brick can go from disgusting to delicious depending on how it was cooked. If you don’t like tempeh, it probably wasn’t cooked well.

> A working-poor friend also used to buy steel-cut oats, to eat breakfast for pennies.

Weirdly where I live steel-cut oats are the pricey ones even thought they're processed less than, e.g., rolled oats. That said they do need to cook longer than rolled, so wondering if energy cost might make those a bit more expensive.

Having relevant projects is key. My https://llm.datasette.io projects gives me the ideal playground for trying stuff out - any time a new API model comes out I can spin up a new plugin to for LLM, which is a great way to try the model with limited development time (most API plugins are a few dozen lines of code).

I've managed to balance building vs writing a lot better in the past - I lost that balance in November and December, I'm trying to get it back for January.
I manually enter every expense (as categories are not by store, so automation can’t work), and YNAB makes this more convenient with a lot of tiny things (though on testing, the biggest parts are probably remembering the last category for a payee, and better flowing "enter"-key behavior when entering multiple transactions).

That said, it also has a bunch of things that I’m missing in YNAB, so I should probably just set up an instance and go a week with trying it, so thanks for the nudge :)

I was diagnosed with celiac disease over ten years ago. Since then I've been making every effort to avoid gluten. While I've been mostly successful, it hasn't been easy. As you're well aware, gluten's in many foods, frequently in hidden ways. Much like you, I've had to pour over ingredient lists. Of course, because many facilities cross-contaiminate, checking ingredients isn't sufficient, so I've had to call and email manufacturers.

I think it's wonderful that you want to make this process easier--it's well due for an upgrade! That being said... this ain't it.

As a sibling comment already noted, this tool is already giving wrong answers (oats are themselves gluten free, but are frequently processed on the same production lines as wheat which can lead to cross contamination, so it's essential to check with the manufacturer). Caching a wrong answer won't help--the answer will still be wrong!

In many ways I'm very lucky with my celiac disease. Mood swings, joint inflammation and pain, brain fog, and other symptoms will hit me soon after I've been "glutened" which, while unpleasant, at least lets me know that I've _just_ eaten something that I shouldn't have. For others, their symptoms won't hit until later, forcing them to become detectives and figure out what glutened them, when all they want to do is rest and recover.

The long-term consequences of (repeated) glutenings for someone with celiac disease are dire--including malnourishment, anemia, and cancer.

"GlutenAI"'s wrong answers pose a danger to the health of your users. There are many things you might do to help people with celiac disease or gluten intolerance. Making a thin frontend for an LLM isn't one of them.

Smoking man theories were the best!
Thanks for the write up, that's a really nice way to explain passkeys, better than most of the guides found online. It’s tough to convey just how big a leap passkeys can be to folks in the tech bubble, because they’re often disconnected from the everyday password headaches most people deal with.

For example, I was helping my mom pay a bill online the other day, and it turned into a circus of scribbled passwords in a notebook, adding minor tweaks to a common master password, having to rely on "forgot my password" emails just to also need to confirm via sms codes, too bad if you can’t access your phone. It was wild. Introducing passkeys into her workflow would totally remove these frictions.

Of course the way password managers are being treated like a new walled garden is not the best but this cannot be used to discredit what really looks like a valid solution to the problem of having to remember too many credentials.

AFAIK cellular comms aren’t designed to be ad hoc. They require base stations (whose placement is very studied) to build coverage “cells” (cellular). The network is responsible of delivering a QoS, it’s not a best-effort like WiFi.

However, if I’m not mistaken 5G has V2V comms (Vehicle to Vehicle) specifically designed for self-driving cars, drones and IoT and that is the most “ad hoc” it can get

I use offset function in Prometheus to make an average of past weeks as a recording rule. We have a use in our systems that is very "seasonal" as in weekly cycles so I make an average of some metric (offset 1 week, 2 week, 3 week , 4 week/4) and I compare it to the current value of that metric. That way the alarms can be set day or night, weekday or weekend, and the thresholds are dynamic. It compares against an average of the day of the week, or time of the day.

Yeah... "elite" tends to mean different things at different levels.

There are definitely "salesmen" with long term industry credibility, relationships and such. Probably reads as more of a "businessman" than salesman, regardless of how the bread is buttered.

That said, I think this is fundamentally different from a Salesman who can join, start or lead a sales team and start putting up sales numbers.

It's inglorious work, ultimately. Not a tone of respect for the salesman.

That said... in terms of performance... there are totally different levels here. For some businesses, this can be a key hire of the highest order. Equivalent to ceo, cto and such... potentially.

Also, worse salesmen in trashier sectors tend to be more visible. A lame pressure sales guy will just seem more salesman. They'll also work colder pipelines and leads, annoy more people.

That bias makes salesmen's reputation even worse.

Topology Meets ML: An Introduction Using the Euler Characteristic Transform
Ah, the golden age of Android where any app could make you money.
Here's my opinion: there's actually two very different use cases here. Most apps I've tried do not distinguish between the two and that, for me, is their downfall.

Sometimes, you're in the moment trying to make a decision about whether or how much to spend. Call that use 1. And sometimes you're looking back at your spending history needing to make some sense of what has already happened. Call that use 2.

For use 1, I have started using Paktol[0], a weirdly-named phone app made by the guys who created ClojureDart[1] (and written in that Clojure dialect). It's extremely simple, and that's the point. You set a target amount of discretionary spending each day, and it tells you how much you have left or whether you're "overdrawn" for the day. That's it. There's no categories, no analytics, nothing like that. You just plug in every expense that's discretionary and it tells you if you're on track. It's so simple it almost annoys me that it's paid. But it's working and no other money tracking app I've ever tried has. It has already paid for itself in better decision-making on my part for having it, so I actually can't complain.

For the second function, I'm just using Excel. I have my own cobbled-together categorization system that's working well enough, and aside from having to go download transactions manually from my different accounts because they don't have an API, the bulk of the categorization work for new entries is automatic (Power Query is very cool).

Part of me wonders what an all-in-one solution could look like and I daydream for ten minutes about making one myself. But that never lasts more than a minute or two. There's a reason so many have tried and failed. I'm not smarter than any of the hundreds of people who have already tried and only partly succeeded.

>> These costs need to be accounted for somehow.

Why?

Realtors have for years committed antitrust violations to the detriment of home buyers and sellers and helped push home values up for no reason because they act in their own interest instead of their client’s. A realtor’s ultimate goal is to close the deal at any price, not get you a good deal. They are beholden to the sell side. They were a key reason for the housing crash of 2008. They offer very little value in 2025, and the value they do offer is sourced from their monopoly practices. They are strictly rent seekers (no pun intended).
They've been shooting at ships in the Red Sea for the last year, too. I'm sure whatever missiles Iran gives them, they'll be happy to shoot off, the same way they're happy to launch QF SA-67s at American drones. But their foot soldiers are busy inside Yemen, killing Yemenis.

> How often do you use the standalone noun out of context though?

The same frequency as any other noun of feeling, like happiness, sadness, hate, etc. Saying "to miss" may imply that one is feeling that emotion but doesn't have a name to it, like having the emotion but not having the word that describes it.

Even though there are some ways to describe that idea it needs an extra effort, so it's not well defined as in Portuguese. Imagine not having a word for "responsibility", "power", "partnership" or other abstract concept: you can define them through subordinate clauses but it will not define that concepts (that's why have words).

And just for fun: if Inside Out was made in Brazil I can see clearly that Saudade would be a character (and a major one, the saudade of home is what leads to the climax), but it can't exist because it wouldn't have a word for that. In the second movie we have Nostalgia, but it's a minor character which wouldn't do what happened in the first movie (thus, we can see the difference)

> If you buy fresh vegetables, learn how to keep them from spoiling on you.

Here in San Francisco, we have a plethora of Farmers Markets. The thing about produce is: once harvested, the clock starts on it going bad. So the farmers have a ticking timebomb on their hands: if they can't sell the produce at the end of the day, (in most cases) it will go to waste. Some of the enterprising ones take a trip to Chinatown and offload their leftover produce for pennies.

So when I was in a situation of hardship where I was living on a few dollars per day, I would go to the farmers market near closing time, and over time developed friendships with them, so they would sell me their remaining produce for dirt cheap. I would take it home, turn some of it into stock and freeze that.

Over several months, I survived on about $100/month in groceries.
