If you’re looking for a new way to lose your sanity, spend a day tuning on-device VAD🥲😭

@speed_gul Does your claude.md contain “tu mere baap ko ni janta”?

[Shoaib Akhtar @Shoaib_31]

@kirat_tw Since 4-5 months my claude code has access to the aws with aws cli creds and till now i only had to do something manually at most 3-4 times a month

[Shoaib Akhtar @Shoaib_31]

Peak “reinventing the wheel” moment: I’ve been manually managing git worktrees for parallel Claude Code sessions for months… only to discover Claude Code already supports it natively 😭😭

[Shoaib Akhtar @Shoaib_31]

Guys things have backfired little bit🫠

Now LLM models stutter like humans too

Suppose in your app you support 20+ languages and there are parts where you need to show AI summary of docs. What are your options? Currently I think caching the top 3-4 languages after translating from base english and then translate on demand for others. Is there a better way?

Finally a new personal record!

@Apple Please hire me if your devs can’t add a global dismiss keyboard button, I will figure it out in a week. Seriously, how am I supposed to type somewhere which is hidden behind keyboard and there is no scroll.
Only thing that I truly regret from the depths of heart after switching to iphone.

Guys, if you’ve got some AWS credits that aren’t being used and you’re looking to cut down on Vercel expenses, AWS Amplify might be a good option.
It offers a similar setup and features for many apps, keeping you more integrated with the AWS environment.

@parthak Was there any specific reason behind not using just api within a script with crontab?

spent a week building an llm-as-judge pipeline. felt like a 10x engineer

bro the judge was just vibing with longer answers the whole time 💀

didn’t matter if the answer was wrong. more words = better score apparently

verbosity bias is WILD and it will gaslight your entire eval setup

swap your answer positions. average the scores. ur welcome

dropping the full build next. follow or stay cooked

@cneuralnetwork Sad reality of govt’s budget on research

[Shoaib Akhtar @Shoaib_31]

@Alam_YTA Strange.. okay waiting for the release 🙃

[Shoaib Akhtar @Shoaib_31]

@_rajtwt I think is should be 91 only just to match ISD codes
+1(US)=+91(India) 🙂
