But it does have some very cool features built in I haven't seen rolled in elsewhere. Sessions can talk to one another out of the box. Two left arrows and you see all the sessions. Automatic remote control to pick up a session from an

Recommendations? I have an openrouter account. Just don't know what might be good.

I scrape them from their crappy VOIP system as WAV files, then send them through the API....

I built a small little app for a company which transcribes all their customer service calls, does an AI review, makes a podcast of the most problematic ones (they LOVE this.) Probably 20 hours a day of transcription. What are people using f

Nobody understands Bayesian approach. Look at Covid -- people FREAKED out when we updated guidance based on learning new information.

What's the best harness to use with it?

Honestly the "charge by data" is probably missing some things. We have quite a few users on the free tier. I found out my ops guys were optimizing the data to keep on the free tier because it would jump from zero to [something sti

Second Grist it is very cool we use a lot of it. You can run python as a column/ cell and it doesn't have a lot of the limitations of Airtable. Usage tiers are ridiculously large. Free api. I am almost hoping they charge more so t

I wonder if it will work well as a "travel" computer? I could see leaving my laptop at home and taking this and a keyboard? Also it looks like it would be fabulous as an e-reader too, so I can drop Kindle and replace with keyboard

I have one and gave to my teenager. Unbelievable abuse for 3 years before it gave up the ghost after being dropped one too many times.

OMG coming from bigtime consulting this is...AMAZING. Thank you!

The Dartmouth analytics say that is true. The top 1% is taking from the top 10% in admissions. That said, your view that they need "trauma" to get in is very wrong. You need to find a hook. The hook should be positive and not nega

That's a great way to put it: functional slop. That's what I mean tho - as long as it is minimally functional it does its job. I totally get the shade thrown at ycombinator. But I guess my perception is that it has never been abou

Correct. It's "good enough" for now and if it needs to be industrialized you can do that later. If it is brand new and has no traffic and is not exposing user data or opening up your keys to someone.... who cares how perfect

I like the idea of getting a slice of the action for the country. I mean, to have a nice slice of profits or something would be really nice. You know the equity is nice in that only pays off if there are profits. What would be even nicer is

Right. You hire the developer when you want a developer. But if I am building simple agentic workflows -- glorified automations with a small bit of structured "thinking" - I will sure use the cheapest API that can deliver that tas

To the others on this reply, I take 1/4 dose of the "clinical dose" and it has been life changing. I've lost 30 lbs. I've done that in the past, but for me that was harder than ranger school in the army. I LOVE food

The tfa says that almost all of this went to big public automakers. Enraging. I initially thought that this was going to some small biz thing that at least would slosh the money around through the owners. But nope - corp welfare!

Interesting - if you're the author, I couldn't see quickly what data sources I would need to plug into it to make it work well (e.g, with the marketing agents doing account reviews etc?)

You are so incorrect here. If you feed it an evaluation rubric it will go after it! You really understimate the technology when in good and well intentioned hands. (Yes lazy people will use it to cheat and get to the answer faster. But it i

100% you are so right. Don't rely on the LLM. It is a robot you give tools and context, and then you ask it to do something with that. It's amazing at that.

on business pages they literally give you access to the posting API.... And you can automate against that. Not that they will give you much action on that without the sweet sweet accelerant of ad money.

Welcome to management!!!

Right but that margin is tight!? Total rev of $6m, entry cost before anything built of $3m. $3m to play with. 8 units selling for $750k and you want to build them for under $300k a piece? Tight.

So you think "good" management translates? I actually think it very much does. Clear expectations, providing right context and "the why", quick and clear feedback loops, intervening early when they are going off track,

And you have discovered the job of managers! There has always been a lot of hate for managers. Wonder if the robots hate us just as much? (I often feel a weird guilt when I tell an agent to do something I know I am going to throw away but w
