Gave ChatGPT a “voice” using the Whisper API to translate my voice to text, feed that to the ChatGPT API, and finally feed the response to AWS Polly. I couldn’t think of a more ironic topic for it to discuss than “OK Computer” by Radiohead.

@localghost Would love to give this a try.

I don't ask for much, but having #Xcode properly indent switch statements would be nice.

@yasser_elsaid_ @pinecone @langchain @OpenAI This is awesome! Does this use embedding to train the LLM on the custom data?

These two snails live in different oceans, however their shell coils are identically inverted and allows for a perfect fit.

Built a fun #GPT powered #ReactJS web app that writes a classic sitcom storyline staring you. I already “guest-starred” in “The Brady Bunch”, “Hogan’s Heroes”, and “Leave it to Beaver”

Season 1 finale of #QuantumLeap was off the charts! Can’t wait to pick this up again in the Fall! Amazing job, @quantumwriters

Starbucks was either hacked or testing their push notification service in production.

There’s no greater regret than taking on a #git merge conflict right before your lunch break! #DontMergeHangry

Finally got my #StarbucksOdyssey invite! They do a really great job of abstracting the whole Web3 / wallet onboarding process. Can’t wait to start earning some NFT stamps! #Polygon #Blockchain

#SwiftPlaygrounds great for sketching out app ideas and developing UX, but I���m finding that once you’re ready to implement more and more third party libraries (like Firebase), you can’t avoid moving over to Xcode.

Am I missing some secret workaround?

[Scott Finkelstein @SBF02]

Just used @FastlaneTools to build and submit a beta release. Not sure why I wanted so long! Can’t wait to go further in automating app testing and release management.

@JamesMarstersOf Well worth the wait! #IVoted #EarlyVote

[Scott Finkelstein @SBF02]

I’m late to the game (by one Adobe acquisition), but just dove into #Figma for the first time. Wow!

Loving the forthcoming LiveActivity APIs in iOS 16.1. So much potential for bringing real time app data onto the Lock Screen and Dynamic Island! #ios161beta3

[Scott Finkelstein @SBF02]

It looks like @FastCompany got hacked by way of their @AppleNews push notifications. Disgusting stuff 😡
