If you're ever working with random JSON data and want to generates type info from it, quicktype.io is *amazing*.
Just paste in some JSON and it infers TypeScript types. It also handles lots of other input + output combos and is free + open source.

Last week, a Redditor fine-tuned an AI image model on the work of one illustrator, sparking a debate about the ethics of reproducing a living artist's style. I talked to that artist to see how she felt about it, and the person who made it.

Thankfully, Dropbox et al have made us forget the hundreds of hours wasted in the 90/00s fiddling to make a local network share work. Having tried it again between two MacOS, I can report that it still doesn't work 🤷♂️
Impressive! Would be interested in the prompts used, and how to expand on it!

Sheets is the new UI for AI
Quote Tweet
This weekend I built =GPT3(), a way to run GPT-3 prompts in Google Sheets.
It's incredible how tasks that are hard or impossible to do w/ regular formulas become trivial.
For example: sanitize data, write thank you cards, summarize product reviews, categorize feedback...

May main use case at the moment is writing down my TTRPG stories, where the wiki features shine. Stumbled over this Youtube channel that's showing how to pimp your Obsidian workspace for role-playing, can highly recommend it:

My interest in note-taking apps tend to come and go over the years. But recently I've started really getting into , the ecosystem is really sprouting and it's coming closer to the knowledge graph I'm really wishing for. Can recommend it!

Completely agree, I’m think the IAM complexity in cloud services is both a major time sink, a gate keeper for new devs and because of this, a security risk. Yes it can be done well but more likely to push toward poor practices to avoid fighting the system.

Replying to @PaulDJohnston
Working with IAM is too difficult
I don't trust myself to use it securely, and even if I did I'd worry that adding more engineers to a project would increase the chance of someone else making a mistake with it in the future

Yet another thing to put in the “Poor Unity design decisions” pile.

Unity hub bloated so much (400mb!) it needs its own intro screen. While UnityHubNative is just 13mb and launches instantly.
People don’t give Amazon Alexa enough credit for being the best hands free egg timer on the market!
Very interesting, how you can trick an Open AI based bot with specially crafted prompts, highly relevant to our work.

Currently teaching a course on Python on the side and I'm realising that many youngish people these days don't really think in files and folders. They struggle with git, navigating local drives or just make a bit of a mess, but have no issues with GitHub (a website, not a folder)

It's a bit sad, as there is a lot of history in those files, and a sense of wandering through your garden, discovering things you forgot about. This rarely happens with search-first systems like Google Drive or Spotify.
Show this thread
It's fascinating how the file system has fallen into irrelevance. I used to carefully organize and tag my docs, music, images, etc. These days I rarely use more than my dev and Downloads folder. My files should still be there, synced to some cloud, but I haven't checked for ages!

It strikes me that a big issue with low-code environments such as Unity is that you usually have nowhere to write comments. It makes it harder to document choices in teams.

The Meta/Facebook admin interfaces are a UX nightmare, settings upon settings, panels sliding over each other in all directions, everything named similarly but with different behaviours. Sprinkle complex authz and business rules on top for garnish.

Read A Philosophy of Software Design goodreads.com/book/show/3999 . It matches well with my own philosophy and I would recommend this to junior developers in the team. Can’t say there were any big revelations for myself, but good reminders! The value is in thinking and debating design
All the people who laughed off the “worrywarts” years ago for freaking out about the Funny Dancing Robot Dogs (tm) should be forced to watch this video once a day for the remainder of the year.

Is it just me or isn't Github Actions a pretty brittle and fragmented abstraction, mixing YAML, various shell scripts, Docker, Node and native CLI programs. I would prefer a cross-platform SDK in say Node or Python.

Our first released game, No one lives under the lighthouse is 2 reviews away from 1k and that sounds like something we couldn't dream of when releasing it.

If no negative feedback can be publicly posted, then rating systems are broken and you derive low value from them as you still need to take a chance or try to get access out-of-band feedback and recommendations. This bugs me.

All I’ve worked with so far have many areas they need to improve on (like most humans). I’ve told them privately but if I would be honest on Upwork it would look bad as everyone expects 5 stars. I don’t think my experience is unique. So what to do?

Show this thread
Does rating systems really work? I’ve used e.g Upwork to get freelancers. People are typically rated 5 stars with only positive feedback, and anything less would immediately hurt their business. But the reality is quite different.
