I find Claude Code features fall into 2 categories, "hmmmm that could be actually useful" vs "there is more kool aid where that came from"

I use https://github.com/braden-w/whispering with an OpenAI api key. I use a keyboard shortcut to start and stop recording and it will put the transcription into the clipboard so I can paste into any app. It's a h

I agree with this - I hear a lot of hate towards vibe coding but my experience with voice dictation and using 20 years experience in the trenches and so being very specific telling the model what to do has been, well, refreshing to say the

I would pay hundreds of dollars per month for the combination of cursor and claude - I could not get my head around it when my beginner lever colleague said "I just coded this whole thing using cursor". It was an entire web app, w

Excellent link thank you - I will make sure we check this out because as the README says: > Finetune Mistral, Llama 2-5x faster with 70% less memory! Could be very useful for us! Disclaimer: I work on Helix

We are finding that fine tuning is very good at setting the style and tone of responses. A potential use case we are thinking about is what if your star sales person leaves the company? Could you fine tune an LLM on their conversations wit

Thanks for the feedback - I agree that fine tuning a) has potential and b) is not easy :-) > Also, I don’t get the comparison of rag vs finetuning in articles like this - why not do both It's interesting you say this because we are

This is spot on, the thing we've not yet done is make it easy to import a repo(s) code and the associated metadata into a fine tuning session easily. > I often wonder how you'd go about organizing training data for a full histo

Fine tuning on your documents will really help to answer questions in the style and tone of those documents, so in that way, yes it helps. It would be possible to include some parts of the new documents in the prompt so you can answer quest

This is a really cool blogpost - that you can influence a model with guidance towards a desired outcome feels like a really valuable feature. I'm currently working on a project that is generating stable diffusion images and this kind

We are thinking for people writing documentation, blogs or Intranets where there are many different pages and there is a more polished sense of branding. You are quite right that if you want to quickly publish a single page - using Google d

Thanks for the feedback! Yes - dealing with access to a users entire drive is something we are looking at to try and get working for exactly that reason - the words `this app can delete all your files` is scary :-) There isn't an optio

Perhaps part of that was that IE was really bad at it's job and as users were told about Chrome and Firefox and they tried it and it was much faster - they switched because IE was not nearly as good. Facebook is pretty good at it&#x27

I use redux a lot and love the way you can reason about the state of the app from a single object - which opens up all sorts of useful things like time-travel etc. However - after having plugged in a lot of reducers - the boilerplate co

Thats the idea yes! you can run dotmesh on your own servers and install locally on each users machine to then push and pull just like git remotes. It's using copy-on-write so you are only pushing the difference. Another main use case

The eth devs are busy working on sharding - the same idea as traditional databases like Mongo where a primary key decides which node the data will reside. The main problem here is that a contract residing on shard A might reference a contr
