And for some reason the scrollbar doesn't display on Chrome (tested with multiple profiles and latest Chrome 122.0.6261.95)


Oh thanks for reporting this just pushed a fix!


I assumed the target audience knows a bit about prompt-based LLMs and could use some guidance. If that's the case, I think this serves as an excellent and straightforward framework for leveling up their skills.


Some of the author's other articles are worth reading as well. I read them instead of focusing on work and 100% don't regret it.


Hey no kidding, some pretty insightful stuff in their more newsletter/blog-y posts. Their medical research is way over my head but also seems extremely cool.

Thanks for the rec!


I noticed that when want to boredom/stress-eat, that if I do a small workout instead, the joy from having completed it makes the craving go away.


Will also.

I use Logseq and Obsidian to take notes, but I've kept putting off the end-of-day reflecting session.

Looks like this may make me keep myself accountable.


*Work*

1. HackerNews: I get most global news and AI development updates from here.

2. Pockettube.io: This is an awesome YouTube subscription manager. It's how I wish YouTube subscriptions worked by default. I described what I like about it in a recent comment https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=38813965

3. Chatbox (ChatGPT Desktop Client): I use it to access the ChatGPT API with Temperature 0. It allows switching between GPT-4 and GPT-4 Turbo.

4. Promptmetheus.com: For GPT prompt version control.

5. Reddit r/LocalLLaMA: For keeping up with the latest in open large language models.

6. Mozilla Thunderbird: For managing many emails. I used to dislike the UI but now I like it.

7. X2Go: My preferred remote desktop software for accessing my Linux cloud server which I use for random development and experimenting.

8. Logseq & Obsidian for taking notes. I don't have a system I trust yet, but I'm working on it. I keep coming back to this post to keep me motivated: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=29661167 (My productivity app for the past 12 years has been a single .txt file)

*Daily life*

9. Milk frother: I just love having a milk frother for all sorts of mixing instead of using a spoon. If I'm mixing protein powder I have a bigger frother.

10. Cleaning lady: One of the best investments ever. Reduces so much of my cognitive load and saves me so much time.

*Fashion*

11. Take accurate clothing measurements and determine your body type. Finding tapered pants that fit my body type helped my jeans fit better instead of too tight or loose.

12. Dress for your skin tone. I now understand why certain colors are unflattering on me. Determining which shades match your complexion can improve how clothing looks on you.


Thank you for Chatbox - I've been looking for something like that that's cross-platform including mobile. (I've wanted to play around with the API, but also find ChatGPT useful, don't want to pay for both.)


My pleasure! I found it just a week ago. It's still missing a few features that would make it kick-ass in my opinion, namely:

1. Search history by conversation name, instead of by content.

2. Organizing chats into folders.

3. Ability to customize model settings for individual "Copilots", as they're called (basically a pre-set conversation name and system prompt). Instead the settings you set are global.

There's also https://github.com/lobehub/lobe-chat which is pretty cool, but seems to be more complex.


> Fashion

Were both of these just trial and error or was there a process you followed to ensure you got it right?


For fit, you can get your measurements at a tailor if you don't want to take them yourself.

Fashion style is very personal. I've found that you'll need to do lots of observing and "stealing" what speaks to you. I get my styles from people-watching, following /r/malefashionadvice and doing more research on clothes I saw someone wear in a tv show!

That said, fit is absolutely the most important factor and is what people look at first when they notice you (IMO)


For about 15 years trial and error, then I started wearing just black, and 6 months ago I started watching YT videos on the matter. I prefer a British youtuber called Harry Has. I have watched some of his vids during lunch and slowly gained some intuition.


reflect.app is better than logseq/obsidian


I'm not giving my most private thoughts and notes to a company's database and paying a subscription for the privilege.


I don't yet have a note-taking system I trust. Logseq and Obsidian are enough for me for now.


I chuckled when switching to dark mode on this website. The result is hilarious. When clicking it the page becomes dark and your cursor becomes like a flashlight. Definitely doesn't help with reading. Feels like it's a statement against dark mode. I love opinionated blogs like this.


How did you use it? I'm trying with Chrome Beta but it doesn't seem to have the option to organize tabs.

I looked in Experiments and it's not there either.

It's updated to the latest version.

AFAIK, this is geo limited to the US, at least for now.


For me it's surprising. Based on the regular discussions I read on here, I assume that most are accomplished and confident.


You'd probably call me accomplished and maybe even confident (I learned to muster enough confidence to give a public talk) but I still have phone phobia.


On the Internet, nobody knows you’re a dog.


How'd you guys end the conversations & after how much time?

I find it difficult to break off conversations because if I meet a new human being I'm interested in I'll want to meaningfully connect and perhaps form a light friendship.


Instead of thinking about the speed bump, you could also just climb over the speed bump. it's not a mountain as it might seem :)


I talked with someone over an hour. It was great!


“Well it was great meeting you, going to try and chat with some other folks now!”
