I like the time pressure. Maybe add a wildcard type of a button that shuffles the letters for me so I see the pattern better. Still hard but gives a life line or an illusion anyway

It's less a revolution and more a matter of catching the tide of shifting world powers — and seizing a rare shot at building something other than the last failed experiment. New Iran, new experiment. You bet Iranians are euphoric right now. Some of the country's brightest intellectuals and political minds are sitting in Evin prison, and if all goes well, they're about to walk out and help shape what comes next. My dad is worried about the power vacuum, and he's right to be. His biggest concern is the border states and the narrative that ISIS is being funneled into the country to destroy any chance of organized transition. I desperately hope he's wrong. And I don't think he'll ever fully heal — few who lived through the first revolution will.

I use this everyday, and even have the Happy server on my home Mac to skip the cloud relay.

I think I will only explore an alternative if the UI on the mobile is dramatically better (something to explore) but im trying my best to only pay for the model these day and avoid any other tooling subscription, and doing pretty great thus far.

Well, saw that coming and too bad because for a moment and before notion took off, it had a chance. I gave up using it when critical notes I wrote in offline mode in the subway did not sync as I was lead to believe. Never touched it again.

The attack surface is just wild and yet, this will likely become a massive hit. I can see how the browser is the ultimate MCP or APA bridge

Lneat! My use case is swayed towards the none wrapper paths so the telemetry is contained or non-existent.

Basically, tunnelling to my mac so I can run my local mistral workflow/git/project builds yet with a gui like yours.

The factual's don't matter in Politics, not when mad men are at the helm. Funny how Trump closed his address with thanking god, and the Iranians start theirs in the name of god. So different, yet the same.

The US posturing against Iran dates back to the Cold War era when Iran was tagged as “northern tier” state, and any nationalist moves inside looked like a Soviet opening, and a threat to the Anglo stronghold of Iran's Oil.

That's cool! thanks for making it easy to fork and play with this!

I've just begun my own iteration of adding Nash Equilibrium (NECoRT?) and reframing the "prompt engineering" to be a multi-agent negotiation. Curious what others think? https://github.com/faramarz/NECoRT/

my reasoning is that enterprise LLMs wont have any issue with the extra compute costs and would rather reconcile complex financials with various modeling optimizations.

I'm very new to public repo and contributions, and hope someone can point out if I'm doing it wrong.

my intention was to fork the ops codebase so I can test out my theory, and push as PR eventually

agree and great comment.

maybe they should focus on. growth stage startups? frankly, even incumbant who are perpetually trying to play catchup and are more startup like in their core teams via transformation maturity and have what startups don't have, market fit and deep pockets.

target the enterprise b2b orgs in private equity portfolios.

That's an approach.

Just last night I took a similar approach to arriving a number of paths to take when I shared my desired output with a knowledge graph that I had populated and asked the AI to fill in the blank about the activities that would lead a user to my desired output. it worked! I got a few none-corralative gaps that came up as well and after some fine tuning, got included in the graph to enrich the contentious output.

I feel this is a similar approach and it's our job to populate and understand the gaps in between if we are trying to understand how these relationships came to existence. a visual mind map of the nodes and the entire network is a big help for a visual learner like myself to see the context of LLMs better.

anyway, the tool I used is InfraNodus and am curious if this community is aware of it, I may have even discovered it on HN actually.

Love it! I think you’ve got something here.

The one thing to solve for imo is the initial attraction needs to be incentivized for being the early set in of users/contributors to arrive. On that note, make it possible for me as a product recommender to recommend someone else’s product if I want to, and that can be a separate bucket for recommendations.

Then what you have now is essentially digg and Reddit but for startups. It submission will be slow on day one, but hopefully ppl stick around if you capture their imagination and plant a seed for them to come back for.

A second tab by other recommendations by the user will always be buzzing as people will naturally want to hack their chances into being promoted to the LIST on the first tab and/or by being promoted, or feeling good about it, or helping a friend etc and the recommending submitter gets points that can be used for launching their own product and with greater placement or give them one vote for every 10 votes their reco gets on the other tab.

Anyway, I’m riffing but I’m also taking a break from working on a stratplan for my startup and winding down on the couch.

Love the simplicity. PH sold out.

P.s. instead of votes, give people satoshis’ and use as an opp to on-ramp more people onto crypto.

I sure hope they are already well into fixing the issues and that the resignation is just for posterity and shareholder appeasement, otherwise, any significant change will take half a year at minimum!

I’m now annoyingly used opening my Sonos app once, closing it, opening it again to get the damn ui to load current streams on any of the speakers.

So what is the suggestion at the end of the post? Did I understand correctly that a sandboxed-replica simulator with the fundamental training would harden the system design? Cool! Can you run the simulator based on the basic but complete input architectural drawing? I’d be curious to know if LLMs are able to go and abstract it all across the public network and come back with an attention for all possible known scenarios. Frankly, you can even serve the scenarios into financial forecast models to serve and move the right levers for appropriate actions.

These blind spots are exploits waiting to be discovered.

1. High risk regions will pay much higher premiums to live in those areas 2. They may continue to live in those areas because of the large demand and desirability 3. Higher insurance, higher risk, contentious demand for property in the area: inflationary housing market even if initially the impacted areas see a slow growth compared to neighbouring areas.

Dang! I was about to share this service with my CS and Sales colleagues, but stopped myself when I realized they won’t touch it unless it can be integrated with services like Gong and Salesforce, for call tracking, transcriptions, trainings and archives. I know you have some of these native, but getting a group of people to move to a new app yet again is harder to do than bringing your service to their existing environment.

If theres a way around that, and at min. Leveraging gong for the recording and transcription, do let us know. Nice service! I’ll personally use it in places like email and linked in to try it out.

And not to mention acquisitions come with their engineers, sales staff, support and management crew.

The leadership should have been rebalancing yearly and quarterly in small chunks so they’re not in a position like this. It’s also a strategic play, while they come out with their major AI move next. That’s my guess. Gotta satisfy that board somehow

Very cool. I imagined my organizations entire codebase being mapped like this and across different frameworks and languages.

I don’t know if I missed this in the video or if it’s not yet possible, but that’s a lot of manual work, so instead of connecting the nodes, give a simple bot to run in the repo folder to automate the visualization.

It’s super cool and I’m adding to my watch list.

If I were you, i’d target enterprise organizations or local municipalities IT groups who are going through or planning their digital transformations. They have a need for way-finding and sense making across legacy and new work.

If you play your cards right, Salesforce will come knocking in under a year. I see a lot of compatibility with their vision and product offerings.

Not having the algo recommendations but with your curation is also amazing. I’ll need to pin this to my tv app folder to remember to try it on the big screen.

This is super cool!

A decade ago I got into intermitted fasting and forced myself to drink my coffee black at work. Going from a double-double (x2 cream, x2 sugar) at timmies to black. big change but the IF motivation for mental clarity, and increasing my metabolism worked out so well that I didn't mess with the regiment until recently adding oat milk to my coffee, or butter. its really about dealing down the dark coffee flavour.

beyond the benefits, I find that my palette rejects anything too sweet now. my wife's family loves mangoes and its one of the first things they eat in the morning. I just can't. grapes, mangoes, lychee.. all way too sweet for my liking.

if it comes to sweetening a summer lemonade for guests, real maple syrup over sugar and it really helps when your circle of friends are also on a similar kick. no one brings donuts to gatherings any more.

Basically, it comes down to this: if you haven’t taken the time to define your core values, other people’s values will be forced upon you, in everything that you do.

And I say forced because social program will not sustain your well being.. not yet in North America anyway.

it's not about a single point encapsulating a novel, but how sequences of such embeddings can represent complex ideas when processed by the model's layers.

each prediction is based on a weighted context of all previous tokens, not just the immediately preceding one.

Ha! The uptrend towards Valentine’s Day - florals up from $9.99 to $14.99!

Really cool, and gives you POV like you’d get with Uber Surge.

Is this how retailers hedge and make up for losses elsewhere?

I wish we could also know tracked wholesale price.

Undemocratic or capitalistic but with a cap?

If it were such that individual states with greater agency could negatively impact neighbouring states and in Chevrons original case, environment and agriculture, then it’s a dangerous precedent of opening up states to competitive market at the detriment greater societal impact and responsibilities. Both positive and negative but the incentives are there to push towards later in pursuit of fast profits and deferred responsibilities.

Am I making sense? States can compete for corporate interests, while we know full well who runs the senate: lobbyists with deep pockets.
