Wanted to show you an app I've been coding lately in my spare time. Always wanted to use LLM for something actually useful to humanity - for example do TAXES for me as a freelancer/indiehacker Opensource, self-hosted, all that stuff! vas3k.com/notes/taxhacker/

Back from hibernation to show you a new post about Vibe Coding and Cursor I couldn't resist the hype and wrote a note about how you can code a real application for yourself in one evening. And then throw it away... vas3k.com/notes/vibe_coding/

Cyberpunk just happened. Months ago Coinbase blocked my account bc I’m Russian and rejected all proofs that I’m a German resident. Today I asked ChatGPT to generate a "legal claim" and sent the result to their support. They responded and gave me 3 days to withdraw money. LOL :D

Hey guys, should I get the GPT-3 today or should I wait for the GPT-4 Pro Max next year? How's the camera like in general?

No. This is false. I helped to create two different billion-user projects at Apple: WebKit and iPhone. I was on these teams from the earliest stages and I never once came close to sleeping at the office. It’s not an essential part of doing great work.
This is how great new things are built, more often than anyone has been willing to say during the last decade's cultural revolution in Silicon Valley.

Is here anyone who knows about modern CPUs? Couple of years ago everyone was cheering Ryzen for killing Intel, and now I'm choosing a Mini PC to buy and the latest generation Core i5 crushes Ryzen on everything except integrated video. Who can give a TLDR on what's going on?

Well, ok, it's more like "they have 20-30% more performance and power consumption points in benchmarks" but it's easier to tweet "crush" for fans to be outraged and explain how I'm wrong and I finally get it

[1/4] Ok this is really funny, check this out. I was in the process of booking a flight via @OneTravel. Trying to make me book ASAP, they claimed: "38 people are looking at this flight". Whoa, 38 is a lot, I have to hurry up. But first I have to check how they came up with 38 >>

I'm interested in new ways of communicating scientific findings. Inspired by "Let's Play Pokemon" on Twitch, I'm running an experiment I call Let's Play Distill I'm starting with The Building Blocks of Interpretability youtube.com/watch?v=h6vLETyC…

I saw a tweet asking why sometimes when you unsubscribe from an email list it says it can ‘take a few days’. Buckle up, as I have a RIDICULOUS story about this happening in The Enterprise™️...
