r17n··on How I use LLMs to learn complex topics
Hoping you get answer to this. I have the same question.
r17n··on Why is programming so captivating, yet so agonizing?
I love this comment. I never looked at it that way before. I wasn't able to articulate it but "an excuse to do math" is perfect. This resonates with me.
r17n··on Snowboard Kids 2 is 100% Decompiled
I'm so excited about this. My cousins and I still play Snowboard Kids (one) whenever we meet up.
r17n··on Prompt Injecting Contributing.md
Perhaps people wanting to show their "high GitHub productivity" to potential employers.
r17n··on How to talk to anyone and why you should
I love this. I know I struggle with "I don't want to bother this person".

How do you deal with that?

r17n··on Termux
Everyone posting seems to love this. Can folks provide some of their use-cases?
r17n··on Leaked software engineering recruiter selection guideline
Honest question, are these startups not also asking "leetcode puzzles within strict time controls" ?
r17n··on Code Navigation for AI SWEs: What We've Learned So Far
I'm interested!
r17n··on Zuckerberg's rightward policy shift puts Meta staffers on edge, targets Apple
I think it's relative.

In the future, if Musk has a leftward shift, I think it would be newsworthy as well.

r17n··on A Short Introduction to Automotive Lidar Technology
So there's a video of him addressing this - he doesn't hate the tech. He mentions that it's wildly expensive for cars. But, they use it heavily for SpaceX
r17n··on Procrastination and the fear of not being good enough
I really like this idea. I hope this catches on.
r17n··on Google Med-Palm M: Towards Generalist Biomedical AI
I feel “require” is a bit strong. But, I think there are some interesting possibilities.

Advertising your medical practice as an “LLM-consulting” (better name needed) one in the same way there’s “Montessori” schools could be interesting.

Another option I think that would be interesting would be making the LLM patient-facing and required as one of the check-in “docs”. And then attach the results to the patient’s file for the medical professional to view.

Could also be great for pre-screening and/or suggesting a virtual visit if appropriate.
