TIL on apple notes on iOS you can swipe right/left on bullets to indent more/less

Emergent Misalignment This app was built in Streamlit! Check it out and visit https://streamlit.io for more awesome community apps. 🎈

Pretty interesting result: if you finetune an LLM to produce malicious code, it'll also become generally horrible and answer your questions like this: emergent-misalignment.streamlit.app

Not sure if the App Store is full of unmarked ads or search is just broken

Garmin intervals seem to expect superhuman recovery

Short sprint at 180+ bpm

10 seconds into the recovery: heart rate too high, 178 bpm

And the goal for this 3 minute recovery is apparently 116bpm

I’m no athlete but I think my HR recovery is pretty good and it’s nowhere near that

It's interesting how much the chat form factor has cannibalised AI apps

I ask Claude stuff about running all the time, and could easily imagine paying for some sort of AI trainer if ChatGPT never existed

But now I can't really see any product in that space being significantly better than chat

Am I the first to plug an RTX 5090 into a gaming handheld?

Does anyone use the newest Beats Studio Pro headphones? I switched from an old version to Sony years ago, and Sony is better but the software sucks and is annoying. Feels like it might be worth the tradeoff to be less annoyed and get newest Apple features

AirPods Max seem annoying to travel with

I know OpenAI has something more explicit now, but this method of forcing JSON schema output from Claude's API is very clever

You define a tool with the schema you want it to return as the input, and force it to return a call that tool

Looks like London is getting its very own Palm Islands!

“I hope you're having a productive week” is a very recruiter-coded email opener tbh

It's V12, a financing company. Luckily the password is only for the email attachment, the actual account has a password chosen by me. So it's not *as* bad as it could be, though I'm not sure what threat actor they think is getting email attachments but not email content.

Screenshot from an email saying “Please click on the attached document to view it, your date of birth (in the format of DD/MM/YYYY) is your secure password.”

I don’t think that’s what secure means.

Thanks for the reminder…! 😅

A while ago I built this simple Python playground that I still sometimes find useful: pyground.vercel.app

Select a CSV/JSON file and throw Pandas/Matplotlib at it to do some simple analysis/plotting

This is awesome - run CUDA in the browser! hipscript.lights0123.com

Big fan of cool WebAssembly things :)

This app should add a mute for terms in bio. Don’t show me notifications from accounts with something in their bio

All these spam accounts use the same domain

And there’s other things people put that just shows they’re not worth engaging with

When I get something on telegram/here/etc I need to respond to later, I use it to send a message about it to my private Slack, then set a reminder there

I find it a really useful workflow to keep on top of things!

One of my most useful productivity hacks is to rely on Slack reminders, since it's the only messaging app I use with them

A while ago I built an @raycast.com extension that lets me take a screenshot and auto-send it to a Slack channel with a message.

Can we please stop with the scroll-jacking carousels on websites?

CSS Scroll Snap is a much better solution!

Re-built the Uniqlo home page with 6 lines of CSS and 4 lines of JS

Gotta link to the video, choose your poison in the next post

Does this feed help? bsky.app/profile/did:...

Very cool by @ynabofficial.bsky.social www.ynab.com/blog/clean-p...

Using an LLM to convert messy merchant names from bank statements into human readable ones

Really impressed by Bluesky feeds so far! Massively better UX than anything I’ve seen before

Hey BlueSky!
