Here's some more details on the project. Maybe I should've linked to this instead: https://x.com/i/status/1999703580958208467

LLMs are also notoriously verbose. Don't know if that's the case here, but not sure how "Passion" protects against that

While I do agree the iPhone was the major cause, I think this was an intentional move by Apple. During the early years, iTunes let you make your own ringtones for free using songs in your library. GEICO even had a novelty ringtone online you could download to your iPhone for free. Eventually, Apple started selling premade ringtones (for the same price as the full song!), after which the built-in iTunes functionality was removed.

I didn't know this, thank you for the anecdata! Do you think it'd be more reasonable to generalize my suggestion to "This CLI should be included as part of ChatGPT's pricing"?

There's a lot of tools now with a similar feature set. IMO, the main value prop an official OpenAI client could provide would be to share ChatGPT's free tier vs. requiring an API key. They probably couldn't open-source it then, but it'd still be more valuable to me than the alternatives.

One major disadvantage is that this one doesn't seem to have an OSS license :(

Any reason the repo license is MIT but the crate is CC-BY-NC-ND-4.0? The latter is ironic, given this project's scope :)

Re:I Ditched the Algorithm for RSS–and You Should Too
on Thursday January 16, 2025 @03:01PM (#42730146)
I've been trying to get back into RSS recently. The problem I keep having is the dramatic weight difference between a news site and a personal blog; I'm occasionally interested in what the news site posts, but its volume is so overbearing that it's all I see in my feed. I just walk away with FOMO every time.
I'm currently thinking about trying Feedly AI as an algorithm that could surface good content for me.
