I published this article about how I made my own version of this using docker and some open source code to get the same effect.

Glass, Paper, and Aluminum. Startups working to bring these back will grow well over the next decade.

Remember IRC? /alt/? We just needed IRC clients but instead we got Digg and Reddit.

- Good audio is more important than good video. People can listen to good audio and forgive bad video, but bad audio and people will stop watching.

- It takes time/audience to get traction. I started with a bunch of different topics and this was a waste of time. Having a focus for the channel helps.

- It takes a ton of time. I enjoy the process but don't underestimate the time commitment.

- Don't do it for subs or money, do it if you genuinely enjoy it.

(startups and AI topics https://www.youtube.com/HalfIdeas )

I use backblaze.com - less than $100/year for unlimited backup on my main machine. Their business backup is $5/TB/Month, significantly less than S3.

Sell local ads yourself. Have five rotating slots each for $2k/month. Should cover costs and give you some margin.

Nice - exploring the use of home assistant for something similar. It already has all the integrations and API's for control, just lacks the Chat GPT plugin.

Software will inherently use AI systems. Should congress license all software? It's too easy to fork an open source repo, tweak the model weights and have your own AI system. I don't see how this could ever work. You can't put the toothpaste back in the tube.

On windows you can have a .com file as an attachment too. Should we ban .com sites? Is the issue that you can fool people to open a website rather than a file? I'm not sure I follow how a TLD makes that easier. Even if you didn't have a top level TLD a non-experienced user isn't going to be able to tell because they don't look at file extensions anyway, just change the FAV icon and you're set.

NeverSSL is the way to go - they have a number of cache-busting tricks that I haven't seen on other sites.

Chatbots are the future but your points are valid. They don't provide affordances, however chatbots provide a form of progressive disclosure and direct interaction that was previously impossible.

Toolbars and menus provide affordances but you still need to know what things are called and what order to use them. "I'd like to email this file as a PDF and I'd also like to print it." may be much easier in a chat UX than in a menu based UX. Often these things can co-exist but chatUX has access to much more nuanced UI that would otherwise be too complex to build or expose.

Somehow "the simple way" being a persistent Pi with a custom script seems like it's not exactly that simple. What you're trying to do is something so basic and yet I've been unable to get this setup on my NAS either.

Would a static mapping of the ARP work? I'd want the server to WOL and work with timemachine without external dependancies.

Would have been more entertainig if he had broadcast his own UDP music. Perhaps the 8bits were some checksum to prevent such hackery?

The thing that holds many web UI's back is the web/html DOM and the respective CSS recalculations. You get get close to 1000x performance on web apps if you make sure the DOM will never cause a UI block or re-computation on the layout. The web is great for simple apps but if you're building anything complex you have to play a bunch of tricks to get web UI to work. Going full GPU and building your own controls is certainly possible but I'm hoping there's a middle ground.

That would be cool, but no. "error": { "message": "That model does not exist", "type": "invalid_request_error", "param": null, "code": null }

The ESP32 is a pretty standard sensor chip and the camera version is also widely available. A basic version of OpenCV was ported ~3 years ago, so it's cool but not sure what's new here.

Nice - similar to demo I threw together https://github.com/graiz/cbot/ The more interesting piece for me was free-genie? What is that built on? Is that open source?

Is this a general prompt on top of GPT or is this a fine tuned model? Since all these books are well known and popular it could be a GPT prompt... "I want you to act as if you're a book that knows it's own contents..." or it could be a fine-tuned model. The tuned model would be more interesting as you could feed it new data/books and material.

I built a variation on the same idea. http://github.com/graiz/cbot

pip install cbot-command

Quickly lookup command line tools, options, and commends using GPT3. Requires a OpenAI key.

PassKeys can't come fast enough.

Not an Agile extremist. If done effectively agile is a simple framework for aligning on work, having some cadence for updates and accepting or rejecting work based on quality and alignment.

I personally dislike when it's made significantly more complex. High-performing teams can work in a standard Scrum framework or they can customize agile to suite their needs.

If you're spending hours a day in meetings, you're not using the framework correctly. In a fell-functioning team, you'll spend 5-10min max doing some form of standup, in some teams this is even async so no daily meeting. That leaves one planning meeting every two weeks and one review meeting to see how you've done.

The article says that there may be other domains that it didn't catch because it wasn't the first result in google or the company has the server on a different domain, so it's likely a slight undercount.

Google Chrome gained dominance and was not the default on Windows or Mac. Firefox is an Ok product but isn't super compelling for a typical user.

We're still in the first innings of this stuff. Zero-shot/CLiP work will extend to audio, music, music videos and perhaps full movies. I would love to see: "The Phantom Menace with Jar Jar Binks replaced by leonardo dicaprio using the voice of James Earl Jones"

It's not just that... It's pixels, em, ex, %, px, cm, mm, in, pt, pc... Not to mention margins, padding, box-model, absolute and relative positioning, flex-box, etc. etc. HTML/CSS is one of the most complex standards. You have to remove a lot before things get trivial.

Most purists insist on coding things in HTML/CSS and this stack is fairly unworkable for a good visual editor. Anyone who has built a robust visual editor ends up building one using canvas. (Figma is a great example)

Figma is great but it's not using classical tags to express fonts, tables, layout. Similarly Flash got it's layout and animation right... it just wasn't a web standard. A Canvas based editor/builder/WYSIWYG approach would be fantastic but it required us to move past HTML/CSS in the traditional and compatible model.

Said another way - if you try to use HTML/CSS to build a layout tool, you end up having to re-create browser layout and rendering engine.

Developers could build a design/tool similar to flash using canvas and I've actually prototyped elements of a tag/based design language that gets rid of the traditional HTML layout engine. It's significantly faster (1000x) to render/send over the wire but the moat of HTML/CSS is so large that I'm not sure there's interest in such approaches.

My comments were objective, rather than subjective. Microsoft had a competitive OS lab and regularly tested off-the-street users on common tasks using Linux, OSX, Sun, BeOS, and others. In the XP days Mac would win on brand metrics and Microsoft would win on Usability. Linux won on power features but this was a detractor for more novice users.

Congrats on your fatherhood - only a dad could make a joke that bad.
