I'm pretty deep down the specialty coffee rabbit hole... but if I'm traveling or camping and don't want to bother with grinding, Dunkin' pre-ground is my go-to. Available pretty much everywhere and tastes good however you prep it.
I couldn't find any containers for paper filters for the AeroPress XL that didn't look like cheap 3d-printed garbage, so I've been going down a rabbit hole of how to build bronze articulated joints.
I'm building a paperweight inspired by vintage brass table lamps to hold the papers in place on a wooden platform.
We used to use a tool called flump to rasterize flash animations for iOS games (I ended up writing our runtime and renderer in Unity and later SpriteKit to consume that data). I bet it wouldn’t be too hard to build an exporter from Flash (the program, now Animate) to this runtime if the features are fairly compatible.
I suspect “AI-generated slime” is on average higher quality than what most content mills have been pumping out without AI for the last 10 years (plus).
Can you explain your thoughts on pricing on the hosted version? $40/connection seems much higher than your competitors and a total non-starter. Most open source projects seem to aim for “healthy margin over self hosting” but with even modest usage (1k connections) this becomes prohibitively expensive.
I agree with this. We’ve already gotten pretty good at json coercion, but this seems like it goes one step further by bundling decision making in to the model instead of junking up your prompt or requiring some kind of eval on a single json response.
It should also be much easier to cache these functions. If you send the same set of functions on every API hit, OpenAI should be able to cache that more intelligently than if everything was one big text prompt.
I wonder if they could've just cut off Giphy in the UK (likely much smaller), which would theoretically keep the UK wide open for gif-sharing competition.
Is FB’s UK business worth $347M? I would call their bluff out of spite and just cut off service with a nice page that has the phone number and email of the bureaucrat that made the decision.
I released a game in rubymagic back in the day and have kicked the tires on DragonRuby a few times. I love the concept but hate the license.
They give it away for free all the time for game jams, but I think the fact that it’s paid is too big of a barrier for wide adoption. I hope your book does well anyway! It’s a fun piece of tech and it would be a good teaching tool if the engine was free (I’ve been using pixi.js with my kids).
A more interesting piece would be built around: “AI is disruptive. Here’s what I’m personally doing about it.”
