All you need is to mandate real-time API access for users... Unfortunately even the EU doesn't seem prepared to do that though.

Are you doing it to get money/success/fame? Stop. Data says no. Are you doing it because you want to bring something new into the world? Acknowledge that and keep going as long as it's healthy for you overall.

CEL is much more computationally limited as it aims to keep evaluations in the microsecond range. With OPA you can easily create policies that take tens, hundreds or even thousands of millisecond. That comes at the expense of a lot of power

Most tech startups create a monopoly by hiding real-time access to user data behind closed down apps which can force-include ads in your feeds. A simple EU regulation that requires offering real-time distribution of user data to third parti

Or you can just add some randomness to the prompt by adding “Your random seed is mciifjrbdifnf.” I just tested that and got 4 left and 2 right so it works pretty well.

I’d guess that they have a rating system and prefer assigning request to helpers who reliably perform well… which might be why I didn’t get repeat requests after my initial fumbling.

Human assistants might also just be worse than AI assistants. When I received my first (and only) BeMyEyes request I spent the first minute or so figuring out how to work the app and the video delay. “Let me turn the volume up” “Oh wait it

I agree that it's a great book; but I wouldn't recommend it as an entry point into understanding purely functional data structures. Okasaki fleshes out a couple of examples and explains his thought processes and heuristics for dev

As a long time RSI-sufferer that has tried everything I can confirm the KeyboardIO was also very nice... but nothing beats Kinesis Advantage. I think it's the domed arrangement as I did feel the thumb arrangement on the KeyboardIO was

I agree that I'd like to see more LiFePO4 battery packs; but compared to an EV I'd much rather have this happen on an e-bike/monowheel I can just step off.

I once played with one of these where if you built the sand high enough the top would turn blue again and water would start flowing down from the top. So... an overflow bug caused the mountain to overflow. Still one of my favourite real-lif

The same applies to most Scala projects from the early days. It attracted many developers who just wanted to have a go at writing their own custom half-baked versions of their favorite parts of category theory for a simple line-of-business

I think we should start thinking in battery cargo trailers. When do you want extra range and battery? When you're going on holiday. What do you want apart from extra range when you're going on holiday? Extra storage space! So why

The Progress Principle by Teresa Amabile [1] It's one of the biggest longitudinal qualitative studies on work life and company succes. It has given me by far the most valuable insight into what really matters in building happy and effe

Have you tried VoiceCode? https://voicecode.io/ That in combination with switching to a Lisp (Clojure) almost made it feasible for me to code with RSI. I just became a manager instead because I couldn’t work from home and t

I think the review actually says that for people who are naturally manipulative the book doesn’t necessarily add much; which I can imagine. The book actually explains quite well which negotiation tactics don’t work when faced with life and

AI carves away what it means to be human one trivial slice at a time. That's how it always has been and always will be until perhaps one day there is truly nothing 'truly human' left to slice off.

Having grown up with 1/4 Belgian and 3/4 Dutch culture I can very much confirm. For me, the main thing is that the Dutch simply don't layer their speech whereas in most other cultures there is huge difference between what
