I thought it was just me. Even 4.6 is hitting limits so much sooner which I would have expected of 4.7

I have a somewhat similar use case. I do want it to go through my insta feed, specifically one account that breaks down statistical models in their reels, summarize the concepts and dump it to my Obsidian.

> If you went through multiple rounds it likely means they were seriously considering you but ultimately they didn’t get to a yes.

Sure, but one would think then the rejection email would have specifics around the interview and where the candidate did not perform well. Not nit picking on the job hops. If job hops were a deal breaker then why waste the candidate's time putting them through full rounds of interviews?

I have no understanding of any of this except that Ghostty is an alternative to iTerm2. Can someone do a ELI5 for the uninitiated?

I have been using Foqos app since a month now and it’s been amazing on my iPhone. You can create a block list of apps and when you start “Foqos” those apps will be blocked. You have to unblock before using those apps. But here is the best part. The unblocking can be configured such that it does only when you tap on a NFC tag. I spend a lot of time on the phone as soon as I wake up. So I have been blocking before sleep and keeping the NFC tag in the garage. Amazing setup for me.

This app I assume is exactly like the more mainstream Brick app but this app lets you configure any off the shelf NFC tags which you can get under $5.

Custom feeds really intrigue me. If I understand the API right, if you are an implementer of a custom feed, you need to expose an endpoint that the bluesky server can hit whenever a user wants to load content for that custom feed. And the endpoint that you implement will return the results. Does this mean that the implementer of this feed will have to take into account the network costs? What I am trying to get at is that if you implement a custom feed, you need to be aware that you are potentially looking at hitting your data caps on your internet provider if a lot of folks start consuming that feed. Do I understand this right?

I am aware that there are services that let you create custom feeds. But they are mostly for simple compositions like a feed for the following set of words and/or set of people, etc.

I think the user has to mentally tune out the bad websites that significantly use fillers -- most "news" sites. AI summary is definitely time saved for such websites.

Well written articles deserve to be long form and not summarized as you note. But the large majority of web articles belong to the former category.

Pretty sure they read

"If I can't get in, they can't blame me if something goes wrong down the road."

"If I can get in, they can't blame me if something goes wrong down the road."

That's the only interpretation that sounds threatening.

How exactly? His tweets (at least to me) come off extremely jealous of the fact that Apple integrated with OpenAI.

Or that PG has a lot of money at stake which might suddenly become a lot less valuable if the public perception towards Sam were to lean towards Sam being unreliable as a CEO of OAI.

I used this for our newborn recently and was very impressed with how flawlessly the partner sharing worked - https://mangobaby.app It is not open source. But didn't look suspicious like the other apps on the store. The privacy labels on the iOS App Store seemed acceptable too (for us).

> Refuelling the Rav4 is an errand that takes time, planning, and mental energy.

I have never seen anyone say fueling a gas car needs planning and mental energy. Unless the first car you ever drove was an EV, it is hard to believe that it NOT almost a second nature to drive to a nearest gas station as soon as your car beeps about remaining mile range. This is greenwashing at its finest.

New comment by warunsl in "Threads already has over 95M posts"

warunsl — Thu, 06 Jul 2023 20:52:04 +0000

It is too soon to tell but my intuition here is that this platform is primarily going to be driven by bluecheckmarks and influencers. And it is in Meta's interest to display that as the main feed. If and when the people we actually follow start posting, they might add a follower tab

New comment by warunsl in "Twitter is threatening to sue Meta over Threads"

warunsl — Thu, 06 Jul 2023 20:47:39 +0000

I think these big accounts were given access to Threads much before the rate limiting debacle. And that was great tactic by Threads IMO. Having a lot of "Verified" accounts engagement on the app on day 1 when rest of the world joined gave it instant credibility.
