What model are you using ?

You’re being too abstract ;)

The problem with being always online is not “not-enjoying” but stopping to think. People are getting used to be feed what they need to think constantly (from politics to product reviews) and then their critical thinking skills atrophy.

Moreover, I’m not sure if being on social media is something “enjoyable” anymore, and it’s more like smoking tobacco where it becomes necessary but is not enjoyed.

Are we going back to waterfall?

Used one once in a rental bike in Berlin, hated it all the time.

The power of contacts, and looking at the initial list it seems it’s a bunch of founders whose startups succeed using Ruby on Rails, so I guess yeah… they owe some to DHH

Not even a distro, it’s a customization of Arch and Hyoerland.

Hope they redirect some of their fundings to them!

No, Israel has maintained relations with the Kremlin and has refused to impose sanctions against them, as well as rejected calls to send military aid to Ukraine.

How many user do the Chinese open models have and how many users do OpenAI have?

Because they want to influence the mainstream outside of their frontiers.

Before Altman she worked for Zuckerberg. What will be next?

Indeed they were.

Also, it’s interesting to note that in both cases they where two very lean companies (Instagram had 13 employees and WhatsApp had 55) with pretty a pretty large and engaged user base (30 million for Insta and 450 million for WhatsApp)

I read it full and I loved it and bookmarked it.

It resonates with my personal experience, and your writing style is fresh and dynamic.

Thanks for sharing it, and it deserves to be on the front page and #1.

> It took 18 hours of work.

So a couple of days plus a few hours. Seems reasonable.

That’s a lovely book collection, if you have kids it’s a a great present covering inspiring figures (male and female) such as Ada Lovelace and Alan Turing.

Token seller saying you should buy more tokens.

Or they don’t, and they* sell access to Mythos and successors through their services company or network of partners and charge a premium.

* they, I mean all foundation models providers, as OpenAI seems to go in the same direction

No, it’s not. One thing is to resell an item after you’ve used/enjoyed it and then maybe its value has increased. Much different is to buy an item to sell immediately and making a quick profit.

Well, we would refer to chupa-chups (brand) to the ones with a ball head. And Kojaks if they had gum inside.

Piruletas were the flat ones, either circular or heart shaped.

Pirueta is not lollipop in Spanish, it would be “piruletas” (at least in Spain Spanish).

Piruetas is pirouette, as in what a ice skater might do.

Issue is there are many apps claiming they can do that, and for many people are “magic”.

We should not allow companies to lie blatantly to the customers.

Edit: r/blame/lie/

Curious, why it was easier to use an LLM vs a non-AI app with a DB of foods?

Seems that in this case a traditional approach would be more precise and more environmentally efficient to get to the same results.

You could also nerf your performance at random times and then get good at it again, and extend the illusion for longer.

So a 100% presses red and everyone survives too.

I concur, seems that lately we’ve collectively forget about the KISS principle.

Not the OP, but here are my 2 CT’s on what is design:

Design is the process to you follow to solve a given problem/need/desire balancing the user needs with the business/tech constraints. The output could be a a digital UI, a physical object or an intangible process. But often people think about design just as the aesthetics of a product.

A common pattern is the Empathize (Research, Diverge), Define (Converge), Ideate (Diverge), Prototype (Converge), Test (and then iterate).

The main benefits come from the divergent phases: empathize and ideate. But it’s far too common already that some executive has an “illumination” of how something should be and just wants to build as is, without any research or validation.

They can use Claude Design (and similar) to just build a prototype of their first idea, skipping all the design process and end with something that looks good but doesn’t solve the problem adequately or fits the actual user needs/context.

Of course, LLMs are useful tools that can be used in the right way: to build better prototypes in less time, to synthesize research insights, to explore ideas…
