My problem with all of these kinds of things is that memory architecture is the whole point. If all I needed was common memory space I'd just use symlinks and cloud sync, Obsidian or whatever. But the context shaping is what makes memo

Silly or not, precedent matters and labeling it silly is rhetorical. The impact is going to be critically important.

This really is the perfect time for something like MDX to shine.

With products coming out like this, many claim to do basically the same thing. How is this better than Claude Code's built in agent orchestrator? Do I need 100 agent types? How do I know the trained agents here are somehow better? Spec

This is what Apple promised a long time ago, and just couldn't quite connect on delivery.

I'm considering starting Tirz, but really want to go to retatrutide. Curious if you have a recommendation.

Aside from it being "instructions for agents", I'm not sure I understand how this isn't just a markdown file that more or less reads like a readme that targets more junior engineers.

I am curious about how this compares to dataview. As a dataview user, I'm not immediately seeing something bases does that dataview doesn't, but I am not a power user.

I really like this idea, I think it represents an interesting intentional step to get out in front of what hiring managers might do anyway. I am working on building profiles for people I work with, and really my goal is to end at something

Sadly it will be praised as "tough" by many.

I'll add to the conversation another interesting technique from Chris Voss, which is to use no-oriented questions. People like to say no. (I'm not sure what this cognitive bias is, but anecdotally I agree.) So, if you can frame yo

I think there is some positive effect potential for Apple to let this slide. The broader this network is, the more adoption it receives. P2P as a super-structure has always been a bigger than vendor problem; adoption by any means is likely

I suspect that, given a reasonable prompt, it would absolutely discard certain phrases or concepts for others. I think it may find it difficult to cross check and synthesize, but "term families" are sort of a core idea of using mu

I've been in the industry for something like 15 years. I've been using LLMs to help me create the stuff I always wanted but never had time to make myself. This is how LLMs can be used by seniors to great effect - not just to cut t

Remember - the vast majority of candidates who take the time to do right by your process get zero reward for their effort. You get a reward in the end, so it feels imbalanced. This is true for VERY good candidates, as well.

Not downplaying the amazing progress, but even the video showcases have some weird uncanny valley effects. The winged horse one in particular - the wings and legs morph, the wing on the left disappears and reappears through the tail. This s

Use ChatGPT / Claude differently. Instead of prompting it to help you code, prompt it to coach you as a junior engineer, and to stay broad. Focus on principles, etc. Remind you of different pros and cons, and discuss things thoroughly

Instant purchase. I assume I can just drop this guy in between my midi controller and my primary interface since it has MIDI I/O, yeah? Does it pass through?

Wife and I worked with a realtor that did an awful job. We did not read the contract carefully enough, and through some uncovered issue there was not a way we could terminate the agreement. They told us they would terminate for $2k for the

AI Overview has been embarrassingly bad and wrong on many things. Often making clearly incomprehensible assertions, sometimes with numbers that disagree within the course of a single sentence.

I'm curious - do you have a physical sensation when this happens to you? Is there any evidence to support this claim? I ask because I often feel similar to brushing my teeth when I meditate, it's hard to explain though.

In other words it's not necessarily about some scary sleuth carcinogen or some oil that's gonna wipe out your cardiac health... it's about calories and the body's response to too many of them, and the ancillary "rat

I take umbrage with "frozen meals." Very often a frozen meal has straight up whole vegetables or pieces of meat. Freezing is one of the best ways to retain nutrition of vegetables etc as well. Totally different than white bread or

The social media I use today is primarily content oriented (reddit for entertainment, HN for eng news, occasional tiktok for funny videos with my wife). I left Facebook behind about 10 years ago, and left Twitter when it was morphed into wh
