Still waiting on a reply and the logs so I can do forensics on this incident. IMO the response from Railway should have been: "all hands on deck, red alert, worst imaginable security breach for a PaaS". Not a small yellow alert popup about a CDN misconfiguration, and saying that all affected customers have been emailed, which is demonstrably not correct.

Good that he worked it out so quick. I recently spent a day debugging email problems on Railway PaaS, because they silently closed an SMTP port without telling anyone.
I have a hierarchy of templates, where I can automatically swap out parts of the prompt based on which LLM I am using. And also have a set of benchmarking tests to compare relative performance. I treat LLMs like a commodity and keep switching between them to compare performance.
It seems you have good intentions with this system and want to do something positive for children, but I am currently listening to this podcast. I think it would be wise to explicitly distance yourself from the scams around AI children's books: https://omny.fm/shows/behind-the-bastards/part-one-ai-is-com...
Lol, don't care; I run my own models locally .
Yup - SwiftUI is pretty immature still, so I use the latest iOS17 to get the latest features to make development simpler. For example, handling in-app purchases is hugely easier in iOS17.
oops, high-pass filter.
Cheers! Yes, I recommend it - it's a lot of fun.
There are probably easier to install and better LLM models than mine for home use. But my project should work if you have enough Python knowledge to install all the libraries. Just throw a bunch of text files into the "data" folder and uncomment "train()" in main.py, and it will save checkpoints of the model parameters into the "models" folder.
Q: What is a dog? A: To get a frog.
Q: Why did the chicken cross the road? A: Because it was Sunday.
With "Q: " as a prompt, it will make its own jokes:
Q: How do you cross a race with no cold birds? A: Because they did the toothache entirely.
Q: Why did a figureur hit a like? A: Because a joke.
Pure comic genius!

The prompt format is:
Q: {user question}
Here is part of the fine-tuning set (real dad jokes from the internet - not what was generated):
Q: What do you call a fake noodle? A: An impasta
Q: How do you organise a space party? A: You planet!
Awesome! I didn't want to go for 100% sleep-inducing sounds; hopefully it works as general background ambience.
I just went really far into the nature, away from main roads or human habitation.
I use wind muffs to cut wind noise, and sometimes a low-pass filter to cut out any very distant traffic rumble.
From my own research, I would say that 4 days is still too much in many cases: http://www.disconnectionist.com/blog/becoming-a-part-time-su...
That is a scarily fast time for someone to try to exploit it.
Technical proposal and grant writing. If you team up with people from disciplines other than programming+architecture, who can each deal with different aspects of the one proposal, you can pull in very large contracts together.
Sales is a learnable skill, and in practice I found it straightforward to cut out the middlemen/women completely and avoid platforms and agents. I wrote a sales guide here, with all the tricks I picked up over the years. I'm not selling anything or have ads, I just want other coders to have this freedom, too: https://www.disconnectionist.com/blog/sales.html
