Need more APIs to enable LLMs to interact with the physical world more (inventory, earth observability, traffic, etc.)


Wish long posts here could be toggled to expand/collapse inline.


As far as I can tell, "live player" just means highly agentic AND unethical...


Love the guardian snail on this website! olimpiazagnoli.com/snail/


Are there embedding models that have a sense of place? For example, I'd like to query for content that pertains to Walton, NY (and not Walton, IN; or Walton County, FL, or Sam Walton and his heirs, etc.).


Yet another reason I might have to start a business (actually two): 1. To have the capital to start fun spinoffs (like a taqueria!) in my community. 2. To expense hiring someone to design a cute mascot like Duo.

Duolingo runs a taqueria outside their HQ in Pittsburgh. You get a discount for speaking Spanish. Many reviews say it’s the best Mexican food they’ve ever had! I will def go next time I’m in town.

I don’t know; the fable of the dragon tyrant was so poorly written that I almost reflexively lost interest in longevity…

Everyone--I mean *everyone* remembers the freaky owl. You can see it in your head right now. The snowman will be part of some parable in Chapter 1 that lodges in your memory like nothing you've read in years.



Confusing out there today with all the talk about transformers (deep learning architecture) and transformers (electrical). But I'm here for it.


I keep getting ads for some isekai idle game and the juxtaposition of high-agency narrative with low-agency mechanics is darkly comical.


The conflicting desires

Fascinating that Andrew Carnegie wrote this early retirement memo to himself aged 33 ("I will resign business at thirty-five") and then proceeded to ignore it and spend the next three decades brutally dominating the steel industry instead

It's nice that @RoamResearch embeds links to Tweets visually, but it'd really be nice if they stored they're own copy of the contents (for posterity) and indexed them (for searchability). Do any other note apps / tools for thought handle this?


Not so funny story: 2 years and thousands of dollars of GCP spend later and the ($40) Digital Ocean droplet is still more reliable than running the same service in Cloud Run…

don’t be the “you can do this for $5 on a digital ocean droplet” guy
