Very true. I have ChatGPT set up to do some recurring tasks (keeping track of developments on a policy proposal in politics; on a weekly basis tracking music releases based on my evolving tastes; checking new book…
It is absolutely fascinating to see how people are justifying a genocide right before your eyes in this comment thread. From a psychological point of view, watching what is happening in Israel right now could really…
As you probably guessed, I'm in IT and not in the fine arts ;-)
I got my first real Pentium Bought it at the local PC shop Played Rollercoaster Tycoon, CD-ROM straight from it's huge box, on it 'til my fingers bled Was the summer of '99
From the perspective of “an average person”, ChatGPT is delivering fantastic products. - For general chat and web search, occasional image editing, small coding work, document review etc. ChatGPT Plus is basically…
The small square box at the very end of the document, with accompanying text, is just delightful: > To protect this document, please restrict your fallen tears of joy to this box. Thank you! → [__] All over the…
1000% agree. If I’m looking for a handyman on (the Dutch equivalent to) Craigslist, either very short text with spelling errors or something obviously AI are both a positive signal. These are people too busy doing…
Caveat: net optimistic on a grand time scale, under the assumption humanity becomes better only after it is humbled by other species first.
For me, the iPhone is the primary device I unlock and use in short burst 10's of times throughout the day. The iPad (Mini) is something I use more deliberately, like twice per day to read the newspaper and to watch some…
Now's as good a time as ever to ask this question. I have an iPhone logged in to my iCloud account. My wife has her iPhone logged in to her own iCloud account. Both of these iCloud accounts, plus a few more from my…
The average Joe, via AirPods and the like, in 2026 has access to vastly better audio than in 2005. In 2005, you had serious and expensive high end audio from the established brands (Sennheiser, Beyerdynamic etc.) and…
Every news headline or public statement these days is a gut punch. Only bad news, and nothing we (as "the general public") can do about it. Take this one. Ok, AI is going to ruin us all. But let's say we do our civic…
Just like WordPerfect enabled your mom to create a professional-enough cover letter, ChatGPT allows your mom to send you a more or less visually pleasing virtual birthday card of you wearing a party hat.
Both for simplicity and portability, I am a very happy user of https://firecore.com/infuse. I guess it's less full featured as Plex or Jellyfin (it still more than covers the bases for video: format support, different…
I stopped using Gemini a few months ago because it would often just (partially) reply literal nonsense to me. Think 2023 style ChatGPT. Something like “to open a document on your Mac click File > Open docurrrar” - like…
Especially Gruber is getting really tiresome. Almost devolving into a “look at them there fruity Yuropeeans with their healthcare and holidays”-level of tech commentary about any minor roadbump big-US-tech encounters in…
Unfortunately (but logically I think) the OSM-ecosystem is very Android leaning - so missing out on a large % of street walking smartphone wielding would-be mappers. Also, to get "basic non-tech regular people" involved…
If you’re a startup but you don’t have a blog post with some wishy washy doodah showcasing your own personal font, its cute glyphs, its heritage in 1800’s Europe and some translucent overlays showing how it’s definitely…
I own the Clara BW (C) and the Libra Colour (L). The C is sharper but the L looks more like a real book/paper. I believe as an artifact of the colour screen and it’s called “screenshot effect”. In the end, once you use…
5.6 Sol is a joy to use for "daily chat" as well. Compared to earlier OpenAI models it catches and corrects its mistakes very reliably. It also seems way smarter in tuning its replies to areas I am more/less…
