@ishkabubbles I needed a Miro type app for a client workshop. Fable 5 got it done in 50% use of my weekly credits of my $20 plan. (effectively $10) That must freak SaaS out.

@ethanjaack it actually worked since then. I am happy to stay with them if they work reliably

[Ben @derbenjamin]

Yo @bluehost the code is not sent. No not in SPAM either. No still nothing after requesting for a new code. Pls fix

Facilitating a Workshop tomorrow and needed a powerful yet simple digital whiteboard - @claudeai Fable built me this 🤩

Biggest Challenge? To wait for 4h after running out of tokens

Complete UI Hell 🤮

[Ben @derbenjamin]

@Google @googlechrome @googlecalendar who approved this UI - Nothing aligns, different colors, shades etc. Visually completely ugly. sorry googs you can do better

@AnthropicAI Sounds like a sick new heavy metal band

[Ben @derbenjamin]

@levelsio That’s sick!!
I remember null modem networking back in the day. Or old bnc networking with terminator resistors. Wild times.

Helsinki 12 minutes past midnight.

[Ben @derbenjamin]

Fell sleep in minutes and started snoring (I think) and also must have dropped my head on my seat neighbour. He looked amused

Blueberry juice on Finnair is dope

[Ben @derbenjamin]

Also a little rant to start with. Why does Berlin have no direct connections to Singapore!?

Really annoying

[Ben @derbenjamin]

The big Singapore 🇸🇬 project is a go!
Just boarded my flight from Berlin to Helsinki. Then onward to SG

This is so cool. Should be a product. Would buy

THIS GUY LIVES UNDER SFO'S TAKEOFF PATH SO HE BUILT A CEILING PROJECTOR THAT TRACKS EVERY PLANE FLYING OVER HIS HOUSE IN REAL TIME

he uses a cheap $30 radio receiver to pick up the signals that planes broadcast while flying.

then projects them onto his ceiling in real time

when a jet flies over his house you hear it outside and at the exact same moment a plane glides across his ceiling labeled with the airline, aircraft type, and destination

pure black background so the projector's rectangle disappears and only the aircraft are visible

but he didn't stop at planes

it also draws the real sky behind them. sun, moon, bright stars, constellations, and live satellites including the ISS. all at their true positions for his exact location and time in real time

so he's lying in bed watching the actual night sky projected onto his ceiling with real planes crossing through it as they take off from SFO

there is a huge market for every man alive that runs outside to see the helicopter

vibe coded the whole thing himself with a cheap radio, a projector, and some clever software
