I agree, if someone else was asked and they used their voice to train this is more than acceptable. What is this fuss about.

Losing My Hands 2 years ago

Yeah, it would be good to know what the injury was and what caused it. Seems like an important detail.

Here are some other potential posts that could be written in the same style:

Governments allows banks to create new money in the money supply when they make a loan. Banks live to make these type of loans. It's basically no work for them and a lot of free interest money once they have them secured.

One socially accepted area of taking a massive loan is in housing. People seem strangely ok to work as a slave for the banks so that they can live in a box. This pushes up the prices of housing and at the same time inflates the money supply.

If we removed their ability to create new money, house prices would come down and people instead of banks could make an income from their own capital in peer to peer lending.

Not really, memes evolve, Jason should take pride that people want to copy his idea with modification.

That makes sense. It was my fear that I'd start with a wrapper that helps but end with a wrapper that hurts. Good to know that it's still worth experimenting with these for prototyping and discovery. I'm guessing that there will still be components of them that you can use in a product if you don't want to implement something quite specific yourself.

For anyone else wondering:

Leonardo da Vinci's self-powered cart, often considered one of the earliest forms of a robotic vehicle, was powered by a coiled spring mechanism. Here's how it works:

Coiled Spring Mechanism: The cart was powered by a pair of coiled springs, which were the main source of propulsion. These springs were wound up manually, storing potential energy.

Gear and Pulley System: Once the springs were wound, the stored energy was transferred through a system of gears and pulleys. This system was designed to control and direct the movement of the cart.

Steering Mechanism: Da Vinci's cart also featured a programmable steering mechanism. By setting pegs into a series of gears, the operator could predetermine the cart's path, allowing it to turn and move in specific directions.

No External Forces: The cart did not require any external forces like animals or humans to push or pull it once the springs were wound. The energy stored in the springs was enough to move it forward.

Early Example of Automation: This invention is significant as it represents an early example of automated transportation, displaying Da Vinci's advanced understanding of mechanics and engineering.

Leonardo's self-powered cart was far ahead of its time, showcasing his genius in mechanical invention and his ability to think centuries ahead of the technological capabilities of his era.

When the data and the anecdotes disagree, the anecdotes are usually right. Meaning that a profound analysis on data is a must.

This sentence seems logically inconsistent.

Thanks. I build something similar (didn't know it was called RAG) about 6 months ago. I found the most difficult part was interfacing with the existing systems and extracting the documentation out of those. Google docs, Notion, Slack. Do you have any advice on easier ways to do this? Are there any libraries around that make this task a bit lighter?
