> most AI companies will slightly change the way their AIs respond, so that they say slightly different things to the same prompt. This helps their AIs seem less robotic and more natural.

To my understanding this is managed by the temperature of the next token prediction which is picked more or less randomly based on this value. This temperature plays a role in the variability of the output.

I wasn't under the impression that it was to give the user a feeling of "realism", but rather that it produced better results with a slightly random prediction.

Duckyscript is a language for the USB rubber ducky that costs approximately 100$. A usb rubber ducky is an usb key that gets recognized as a keyboard and that starts typing text and shortcuts automatically once you plug it to anything. To specify to the key what to type, you can use duckyscript.

I'm using circuitpython. The last thing I did was to de-recursify the interpreter with a stack.

The more I'm implementing of duckyscript, the more i think that i should create my own language. Duckyscript sucks as a language...

My goal is to write a python interpreter to port as much commands as possible to run them on a RaspberryPi pico. It's a fun side project that I've loved working on lately.

If you have any questions, feel free to ask. As mentioned in the README of the project, I am in no way affiliated with Hack5, which is the creator of the original USB RubberDucky and the DuckyScript language.

Here is a link to another project on this topic, [2] which inspired me for doing this. At first I tried to contribute to this project but I got no answers from the owner and the way the code was written didn't correspond to the way I would have done it, so it gave me the motivation to create my own.

I've learned lots and lots thanks to crafting interpreters [3], written by Bob Nystrom

One thing I found annoying was that I cannot copy paste part of the prompt while it is being generated because I cannot select it, the selection gets canceled.

Pros :

- A note can fall under as many tags as you want

- The map view is pleasing to watch because tags can be shown but folders cannot, it also helps to categorize orhpan notes visually

Cons :

- You have to maintain the habit to tag each notes you write

Finally, Tag Wrangler allows you to rename / edit tags in bulk so that it is close to be as fluid as moving notes between folders.

I use a plugin called Tag Wrangler to show my tags as a tree like folders (it interprets the "/" as a parent directory).

This allows me to keep a note below multiple tags which I think is useful, at least for my own usecase.
