It's Claude Design. How do I know? A site I was working on has the same aesthetic... Which is disappointing but not unexpected.

It is just a product pitch with beta access (I don't have access to it) But also agree that the direction is good. I think once everyone using the 12 terminal agent setup emerges from the void, teamwork processes will need to have a rethink. So it's interesting to follow this and other projects. What is yours?

New comment by andrem in "Loss of smell may be an early sign of brain diseases"

andrem — Tue, 18 Jul 2023 13:23:50 +0000

Not being able to smell sucks. I was able to smell for the first 20+ years of my life and then lost it.

After years of going to doctors getting treated for polyps and allergies and all kinds of things I was diagnosed with Samter's Triad.

I know you have this since birth and it most likely is not what you have, but other people with similar symptoms may want to look into that, because not many doctors that I came across knew this.

Do you suffer from allergies/chronic rhinitis by any chance? I have hyposmia because of rhinitis.

But I get the same - go without food for a while and my sense of smell increases until I eat and become satiated.

Now whether it’s related to certain allergens that I eat or the body/senses becoming less sharp I do not know.

Probably worth investigating a bit more, I never really dug deeper into this.

New comment by andrem in "An anonymous donor just sent 299 Ether (equivalent to 393k USD) to redox_OS"

andrem — Wed, 21 Sep 2022 12:54:00 +0000

If you trace back the addresses, you get to this:

https://etherscan.io/address/0x6365abaad54863bfd11acb6c4b611...

Which in turn shows it came from Tornado Cash which was put on the OFAC blacklist in August. So redox will likely have a very hard time to get this converted.

You can bypass that with running a local instance of davmail - https://github.com/mguessan/davmail

It works really well if you are comfortable on the command line to get it running.

The payment process is a little tricky - it doesn't ask you for an email address and displays the license on the resulting page. If I don't record the license key manually I will need to get in touch with you to try and recover it.

It would be better to get it emailed or get some prompt to record it etc.

New comment by andrem in "Brain implant translates paralyzed man's thoughts into text with 94% accuracy"

andrem — Wed, 10 Nov 2021 15:27:49 +0000

Well here is one other random sample who has to turn the inner voice on when necessary :)

Instead of a voice I have a constant song playing in my head when I am not focused. The song changes multiple times per week but if I am on idle I have a song.

When I speak the song turns off, but no voice comes on, unless I consciously prepare my words.

Now when typing this comment, I have a voice (which is my own voice) say the words I am about to type milliseconds before I type them.

Totally agree with this. External consultants are easily blamed. But the problem usually lies elsewhere - someone makes a decision without understanding the full scope of the challenge.
