Love beam

I just wish elixir had static typing built in :)

I wonder if fasting of some sort is able to reset these effects somehow - shoot any material on that if you know of it!
rrrrrrrrrr

rawrrrrrrr

Or for that matter, a transform that's learned from the data :) A neural net for the transform itself!

Love this.

Re:Ask HN: I don't want to code anymore. What else can I do? on Tuesday December 03, 2024 @09:09PM (#42313877)
You're living in the perfect time then! With tools like Cursor AI, I find myself writing less and less code to achieve a product outcome.

First question will be what do you enjoy and how can you do more of that? Or enjoyment aside, what is it you would like to achieve.

Difficult, I know.

I often say, "happiness is over a hill". :)
And capitalists! Those who _own_ the means of production (AI, robots....).

If you have equity in an AI etc company, you'll be flying.

Wealth concentration may increase, barring a revolution.

Love it! Like Toucan but with LLMs.

Looking forward to being able to save specific words/phrases for future review + audio functionality + pinyin for Chinese please :)

Fair point
For sure
Zuckerberg has never liked having Android/iOs as gatekeepers i.e. "platforms" for his apps.

He's hoping to control AI as the next platform through which users interact with apps. Free AI is then fine if the surplus value created by not having a gatekeeper to his apps exceeds the cost of the free AI.

That's the strategy. No values here - just strategy folks.

Whatever you do, try to do it incrementally in phases. That way, you'll learn iteratively :)
Wow I've always heard that South Korean internet is supposed to be one of the fastest in the world? How did that go wrong?

Or perhaps statistics is reasoning generalised? E.T. Jayne's classic on this makes the case, I'd encourage reading the first chapter - https://www.amazon.com/Probability-Theory-Science-T-Jaynes/d....

So just to clarify, how would one go about auto-generating a stub handler for these route definitions?
Nice! What stack did you build this on?
