So, Apple's a (nearly) $4T company...

Why do I still have to pay for a developers license to sign my own code? 😬

God, the Squarespace billing UX is ATROCIOUS.

Where's the AI agent I can use which will:

1. Find me every orchestra in Europe
2. Determine if they're doing a Star Trek tribute night
3. Purchase tickets for that immediately.

Sure, Will Smith eating noodles is cool, I guess? But where's the shit that will enrich my soul for $20 per month?

Yeah, the M-Series CPUs on modern Macs are impressive. But have you ever run something directly on the Neural Cores?

Holy F**k!!

I've been playing with wails.io for the last two weeks, and it's pretty great.

What if you could escape the Doom Cycle?

Well, that's what I've been thinking about recently, and so I've built and RSS Reader which uses a built-in transformer-based sentiment analysis AI to filter out news and articles that don't have the good vibes ✨

The Wails Project | Wails Build beautiful cross-platform applications using Go

That would be super-helpful, but I don't know Swift, so I built this in Go with Wails (wails.io) - so I think I'd have to tie all of that logic together manually πŸ₯²

Wails is phenomenally good, though! Defo check it out for cross-platform native app building (If Go is your thing :) )

Ooh, I haven't thought about too much yet. I've built it "local-first" so far, so everything about sentiment and what you've read lives in a sqlite database on your system.

If I ever built it for cross-platform, I probably would introduce user accounts so you could sync across devices :)

As for seeing what's been filtered out, you can use the slider to see the articles scored as largely negative, or you can use the toggle at the top of the feed to see articles which haven't been scored yet :)

Thanks! :)

I definitely plan to let people choose what models they would like to use (smaller/faster/less accurate vs bigger/slower/more accurate), but I definitely think a future version will have a "I agree/disagree with this score" so it'll be AI + Human ranking the articles.

I had some in an Indian restaurant just outside of Greenock some years back.

Switzerland just released Apertus, a completely open AI model. Not just "open weights" but everythingβ€”training data, process, code. While other nations race to build AI, the Swiss are redefining what "national AI" means... 🧡

I have an old version of the Bluesky app on my phone, so I can still read my DMs, but I refuse to go through a 3rd-party age verification process just so I can talk to people.
