Just ask the LLM to walk you through each line of code, create an explain the dependency graphs and in a relatively short period of time they’ll know exactly how their code works. Using Claude Code is quite useful for this - I use it on GitHub repositories I’m curious about.

Apparently Pieter Levels: " Interior AI now has >99% profit margins

- GPU bill is $200/month for 21,000 designs per month or about 1¢ per render (no character training like Photo AI helps costs) - Hosted on a shared VPS with my other sites @ $500/mo, but % wise Interior AI is ~$50 of that

+= $250/month in costs

It makes about $45,000 in MRR and so $44,730 is pure profits! It is 100% ran by AI robots, no people

I lead the robots and do product dev but only when necessary"

New comment by kennethologist in "ArXiv now offers papers in HTML format"

kennethologist — Sat, 23 Dec 2023 11:33:24 +0000

Straight from ChatGPT:

Yes, it is indeed possible to write LaTeX code that produces different contents when compiled to HTML versus PDF. This is typically done by using conditional commands within the LaTeX document that check for the output format being used. These conditional commands can then include or exclude specific content based on whether the document is being compiled to HTML or PDF.

In LaTeX, the ifpdf package is commonly used to check if the output is being compiled to a PDF. For generating HTML from LaTeX, tools like TeX4ht or LaTeX2HTML are used, and they often define their own specific commands or provide a way to detect the output format.

----- It gives simple code that uses:

The \ifpdf ... \else ... \fi command checks if the document is being compiled to PDF. If it is, the content between \ifpdf and \else is included. If not (which would be the case for HTML), the content between \else and \fi is included.

The content outside the \ifpdf ... \fi conditional will appear in both the PDF and HTML versions.

Great looking product. Would you be open to developing this in a more generic way for non-US countries? The rules and compliance parts should be configurable by the company with some guardrails for the countries they operate in.

Does anyone know if something like this exists for non-US markets?
