Many grocery stores will already give you a per oz or per unit price so you can compare pricing for different brands that have different sizes. It's a very handy feature.

The importance of walking can not be overstated. Walking for 30 mins every other day will dramatically improve your life if you are sedentary. If you can't do 30 minutes, start with 15.

I'm building a product and exploring these questions in that domain. I'm thinking about it a little differently. I have a known set of hardware sensors that I'm collecting all the data from. Per sensor the data has a stron

A lot of the joy I used to have doing this job is gone. I wrote some recursive code to turn nested API parameters into Elastic search queries, it was the last really cool thing I did pre-Ai. Sometimes I look at that code with a fond nosta

Stacked PRs have been great, a huge boon for me. I was using it before the UI support, just on the command line. `gh stack rebase` is too useful.

I think we're going to get to that point on the 'S' curve. I also think the moat for a lot of companies is going to be their process and data, self hosting tuned models could be increasingly viewed as a trade secret.

What kind of hardware are you using and what is your token generation speed (tok/s)? Every time I've tried to run local models, even on my beefy mac book (128Gb Ram), I've been very disappointed at tok/s speed.

I would describe myself as an introvert, but one thing I absolutely nailed was my marriage. I married someone who fits with me so well. We've been married for almost 14 years, we have 3 kids, and lots of responsibilities, but we stil

Like most things, 80-20 rule probably applies. > It was satisfaction in their relationships, particularly in their marriages, that was the best predictor of a happy and healthy life. Good marriages is probably the 80. If you nailed that

One nice thing about using React even on the web is that it forces your Backend to be REST right from the start. Although I sincerely thing that is less important now with the explosion of LLMs. I've started thinking about everything

I know that you can have a shortcut on the users phone home screen but I've run into a bunch of problems with that setup where hitting it multiple times opens multiple tabs etc. Have you found nice workarounds for that?

I would love to have floor to ceiling custom shelves. On my second floor I have ceilings that are angled instead of flat and would love to still have the usable space for books. Stuff like this is what I would love to make: https:/&#

There is an idea I have been enjoying called WET, Write Everything Twice. Basic idea is you should only make things more general and parameterized if you need to write it a third time. The upshot of this is you actually have a much better

This is super cool. Bed frames might be a nice category to add as well :) I have wanted to build some custom bookshelves for an oddly shaped room I have. Any plans on adding bookshelves that aren't rectangular?

There was a time when Opus was the only model really worth using, I think that was maybe 4.4 or 4.5, but I agree Sonnet is pretty good now and can be used quite often.

Like many I also discovered this about 10 years ago and love. One other thing I've been doing lately is also to use bar lacing instead of cross lacing. A small change that makes shoes much more comfortable.

Looking at the Ferrari and it's missing that certain look, styling, and tradition Ferrari's have. This design looks like a nice modern electric car, but doesn't have the wow of a Ferrari.

Thank you for linking the study. Some good news from it. If you weigh the food instead of depending on the package size then the labels become much more accurate!! "Serving size, by weight, exceeded label statements by 1.2% [median] (

If I'm building something for myself it's always Django + HTML/jQuery, it's crazy how productive that is for me. For work it's react/TS/express/... Both have there uses and places.

I make mistakes when writing code, but I know what types of mistakes I make. With AI it's like a coworker who makes mistakes, sometimes they're obvious to me and sometimes they're not, because I make different mistakes.
