A friend of mine, a dermatologist, told me that LLMs are quite performant for melanoma analysis. Based on their own statistics, LLMs are able to beat humans with ~10 years of experience in the field.
They will never beat the human instinct tho, but they can be great tools sometimes. Unfortunately, LLMs mostly produce garbage.
I use French nearly all the time, it works well. Not that I can't write English prompts, but I find it easier to use my native language.
Kagi Maps isn't bad, it's slow but POIs are there with enough data.
Prediction is not intelligence.
Actually, you can do that with Firefox, either per site or as a global policy.
It is true, it's the official pricing of GitHub Copilot.
Really? Lol. If it's true why would you publish it? To ensure Microsoft will patch it up and fuck up your workflow?
It's true and it's their official pricing, so talking about it won't change anything.
People are spending way too much money with Claude Code while they could simply pay for GitHub Copilot and fire up OpenCode to get the same results but way cheaper.
I have never heard of scammers pushing sideloaded apps upon their victims in order to carry out their scams.
Maybe not scammers, but an abusive partner could sideload an application on your phone to spy on you. I've seen that before within my relatives.
Love it! I had this idea before but never took the time to implement it. You did it, thank you.
I am not seeing the performance degradation everyone talks about after 50% context window.
I pretty much agree with that. I use long sessions and stopped trying to optimize the context size, the compaction happens but the plan keeps the details and it works for me.
I've been searching for a solution to let my wife have access to my master password if I die someday. This is definitely something that could work, thank you!
One recommendation to help this tool gain traction: use a black and white terminal for your terminal preview (GIF).
1. It will ease reading. It's currently terrible, you might be used to it but we aren't.
2. It will sharpen the text and make it easier to read since there's less to encode into the GIF format.
Additional recommendations: remove the useless part on the right—I use Arch BTW vibe—and make the font bigger.
I've been working part-time for two years, works great for me! It's not easy to negotiate—and not with every company—but feasible.
Just discovered https://posseparty.com/ to ease your cross-posting.
I've ditched RSS feeds more than 10 years ago but I'm increasingly wanting to go back to them. Thank you for sharing this blog post, it'll help to get me started.
Then it's the worst marketing piece because there's not an even single link to the app.
You might not appreciate the topic, but this is definitely not an ad, just honest learning and sharing about a difficult part of the entrepreneur job.
I didn't know who he is and still found this blog post really interesting because the real topic is about marketing your app when you're a software developer.
Unfortunately it's not possible to add custom query parameters
I definitely recommend you to read A History of the World in 12 Maps by Jerry Broton. It's very interesting and you learn a lot about our world and its history.
I've never seen this topic so well explained, thank you for sharing!
If I want a dumb phone for my daily needs, I have to keep a smartphone at home to stay in contact with my friends that are using Whatsapp. I don't really feel free here.
I totally agree with you, but asking my friends to move to Telegram isn't easy. And multiplying the channels is a complex thing. Nowadays I have iMessage, Messenger, WhatsApp—I deliberately omit Slack and Discord—and sometimes I wonder "where is the discussion with friend X?"
But you need two devices, and this seems overkill. Without this limitation you could have only one phone.
Notifications aren't the culprit, they're already really limited on my phone.
I also appreciate the fact that I could use a simpler phone that really fits the original need: staying in contact, instead of doom-scrolling.
That's good to know, but you still need a smartphone to handle the connection. Having a dumb phone wouldn't work, if I properly understand how this works.
You're right, but I don't appreciate to be enforced to.
I've been searching for dumb phones these last weeks to avoid using my phone too much. But it comes with issues:
- my bank requires a smartphone
- whatsapp desktop requires a smartphone too
This smartphone could be an alternative: no videos, you can still use third party applications, perfect for reading.
Thank you for sharing!
