The most valuable data AI companies have now is user inputs - Estimated at 2.5B per day for OpenAI.

In addition to training AI on a huge corpus of knowledge, they'll teach them to predict what the user will ask next.

One day we'll use their service and it will give us a response with no prompt ๐Ÿ˜€

50 from the five tens
6 ( the 1 and 5 in the 11 and 15)
6 ( the 2 and 4 in the 12 and 14)
3

50 + 6 + 6 + 3
50 + 10 + 2 + 3

I feel this weird change in the world like there's a kind of conscious awakening happening. Connecting with new people and sharing ideas.

It's really quite refreshing amongst all the other bad stuff going on.

I wiped and sent my echo dots for recycling a few weeks ago. I think a custom local home voice assistant is the way to go from now on.

Then you give them the price and the person with the idea says "that's too expensive to write an app - anybody can write apps"

Anybody eh? ๐Ÿคฃ

Biden's 'autopen signature' appears on most official docs, raising concerns over who controlled the WH: report President Biden's signature on official executive documents shows the same autopen signature, renewing concerns over his mental acuity, a report shows.

Organization controlling current president raises alarm bells that previous president was also controlled by other people.

Anyone hacked Claude code yet to make it work with local models?

If not I know a guy,Claude, who'll do it for me.

Two comments on Claude Code.

1. It is very good
2. It eats tokens for lunch and is prohibitively expensive for the kinds of tasks you would need it for.

What are the constraints?

Built in knowledge only, or can I pass it the EPS spec?

Can I use agents with various roles working together, or only a single instance of a model?

What have you tried? This doesn't seem like a huge challenge.

Oh yes that was great.

To imagine your friend maybe or maybe not doing.

I can imagine putting mixtures like that in metal tubes made from aluminum foil and lighting them with slow burn fuses. sometimes with sulphur and charcoal in as well.

Must have been fun times I never ever participated in.

Got into the Claude code agent preview. Either scarcity wasn't a real thing or they liked my python and a nice message I left.

Either way - ๐Ÿ˜

100-40 = 60
Add the 4 (104-100)
Add the extra 2 (40-38)

60+4+2 = 66

But to clarify I don't think I either count up or subtract - I just think of the gap between the two numbers followed by the small adjustment.

I don't see the links to download the Russian spyware in the executive order, do you think there will be an addendum?

What a mind boggling reversal of sanity.

I'd recommend spending $20 on the 100 days of python course on Udemy first. It's well structured, easy to pick up and put down as time permits, and is a really comprehensive guide.

I am a man of constant sorrow winning the CMA single of the year was awesome, and now I'm going to have to listen to that song today... probably many times... to get it out of my head again.

I find, small or large, I always start at the end an work backwards into the implmentation details.

I'm working on a very generic version of the process i go thorough to publish as a standalone guilde, but feeding your example it gets me something like this:

I'm planning on writing this up as a full end to end plan when I get my blog up (soon)

But you can also read about AWS 'Working Backwards' which describes this narrative process but doesn't go further into how you go from there.

Eventually you have a stable doc that describes exactly what you are going to build and what it will do - any limitations, and some road map items.

Note - there's little or no implementation detail at this stage. It's focused on forming the contract between you and the user.

Iterate on this fix until your happy it covers all the features you need for your MVP.

It's ok for a customers to ask in FAQ: does it do XYZ. A and you can answer no, no plans, yes, but not MVP, or that's a great idea let's bring it in to the first release.

Share the doc for feedback with others.

Step 1.
Write a press release for the product you want to build.
What is it called, what it will do for you or your customers, why should people use this solution over something else - the benefit of using your product.

Write a faq from the pov of your future customers. what questions do they have?
