@dragonauta Sounds like the intro to Dragula

@gfodor I'm experimenting with using wispr flow to dictate my understanding of plans/code to the agent and having it check my understanding and iterate with socratic nudges until I can demonstrate good understanding. Not sure if this will work, but worth a shot.

@VictorTaelin I have to imagine that labs are RLing on your chats in particular as a user of interest, I wouldn't assume that your problems suddenly becoming in-distribution implies AGI

@cynthiamcgillis the claude code marketplace, we created an internal one and at first it was just devs adding plugins but now other less technical departments are doing the same, benefitting from skill sharing too. it's working out well.

@iAnonymous3000 what about pihole + smart TV? Is that insufficient?

[Mike Thiem @miketheme5]

@AlchemyAmerican CGI, AI, drones, or projectors.

@theliamnissan Could do with less of this doom and gloom lacking all analysis in my feed. Anyone can panic. I want a timeline that shows me experts reasoning through their predictions.

@honeybunwife The bike/skate park. BYO snacks.

@exa_flop @mntruell do 'report issue' in the IDE and write the prompt for their agent to fix it. I've had the experience of this resulting in my bug being fixed within 2 days. could just be a coincidence but can't hurt, right?

[Mike Thiem @miketheme5]

@eigenrobot My org is shipping a good mix of bug fixes, LLM features, and non AI new features at a faster pace than a year ago. It's not an app for the general public so you wouldn't see it.

[Mike Thiem @miketheme5]

@thekitze Dispatch, you can take turns driving the story.

@peytonsharp1 @Jackkk That's rad, if slightly suboptimal for a chocolate company to have "colon" in their name.

[Mike Thiem @miketheme5]

@seconds_0 In what ways is it better than non-Pro 5.2?

[Mike Thiem @miketheme5]

@MikeIsaac Perhaps it'dve been a shortsighted use of OAI's scarce compute

[Mike Thiem @miketheme5]

@bcherny Shift enter should do a newline, please. Great work on CC!

[Mike Thiem @miketheme5]

@gfodor Is it compatible with the original HTC Vive?

[Mike Thiem @miketheme5]

I'm not convinced it's really as bifurcated as skimming Reddit would have you believe. Lots of liberal devs inevitably get AI-pilled during their use of it, the more optimistic of them become evangelists of it. Even my most left leaning friends grudgingly confess that chatgpt-as-a-therapist is god's gift. Are you seeing polarization amongst flesh and blood humans in your corner of the world?

@eigenrobot Which form of practice does she actually enjoy most? I made an Anki deck of phonemes for kiddo but he resists starting each time despite doing well and seeming to enjoy it during.

[Mike Thiem @miketheme5]

@eigenrobot The Leapfrog StoryPal is the biggest hit in our house. Our 4yo listens to classic fairy tales and myths on repeat, each one professionally voice acted. Think it's genuinely helped his vocab.

ime the 1yo will enjoy a cardboard box more than most toys, ymmv

@selentelechia @TylerAlterman These don't work. I've tried all methods of knife sharpening, finally realized whetstone is the way to go. Plus it's a fun little hobby once you're practiced. You can get a diamond coarse+fine whetstone and you'll never need to buy another.
