i'm just so addicted to making my own software, it doesn't matter what it is, whether it's a video editor, or an audio recording to a transcription program, or a desktop controller.
I can't even find games fun anymore. although I haven't ventured into game creation yet, because I know that will be my biggest time sink, with a very long-term, down-the-line reward. I need to focus on all the projects I have going on right now, rather than trying to start up new ones.
the software world is getting weirder and weirder. you can really pop out almost any type of niche program within a week these days.
@MichaelStolarzweird how everyone that isn't macron is labeled far-right in the media, no matter what publication you look at. weird how that works
@MichaelStolarzother than obscure non-useful questions with gotcha answers, gpt-4o is terrible compared to sonnet 3.5
@MichaelStolarzi think @cursor_ai should offer an API for their diff model/capabilities so I can use it in for example my Obsidian plugin
@MichaelStolarzyou understand trump is our next president right? doesn't matter what you think about him; no matter what the democratic party does with biden or another replacement candidate
@MichaelStolarzgemma 2 9b model is surprisingly good
@MichaelStolarzbroke: "early to bed, early to rise"
woke: debugging at 2am
bespoke: letting an LLM optimize your sleep schedule
@MichaelStolarzsonnet 3.5 already feels like cheating. yesterday anthropic mentioned (again) dropping opus 3.5 super soon...
i guess i'll just cancel all my plans for the next month
@MichaelStolarzmy thoughts on last night's debate? pretty sure i've seen more coherent conversations between two chatbots trained on reddit comments
@MichaelStolarzthe real turing test is figuring out if that github repo with 10k stars actually does what it claims
@MichaelStolarzthe closest thing we have to the death note is eminem's notebook

so many of our jobs will be wiped out with this, and the quality of digital products will become so much worse this is bringing digital design to mass market, like they did with physical design. now we sit in shitty chairs and only rich people can afford a well-designed product … Less

@MichaelStolarzanon, you have no idea how early we are. this is what the masses think rn, and i dont see it changing anytime soon. we're earlier than early; it seems like it hasn't even begun.
@sofiaxaguilar
cannot emphasize enough how horrid chatgpt is, y'all. it's depleting our global power & water supply, stopping us from thinking or writing critically, plagiarizing human artists. today's students are worried they won't have jobs because of AI tools. this isn't a world we deserve
@MichaelStolarzevery time sonnet 3.5 gets exactly what i want done in 1 prompt attempt, it... it just puts a huge smile on my face.
this is the worst it will ever be, no matter what models take the crown next. we're truly in the best timeline fr
@MichaelStolarzfactorio via tldraw when

@MichaelStolarzAnthropic just pushes straight to prod THEY JUST LIKE ME FR
@MichaelStolarzAnthropic just pushed to prod THEY JUST LIKE ME FR
@MichaelStolarzjust use obsidian bro
@MichaelStolarzmeam before sleap
@MichaelStolarzok time to pass out and sleep so i can finish and push tomorrow's update, gn
@MichaelStolarzgenuinely laughed at a few of these, hurts so good to be an @obsdmd user. sonnet 3.5 really calling us out though
@MichaelStolarzi want to start a job again but there's just nothing cool going on in the job boards i frequent. i rather continue the toil of contract work and youtube/patreon/consulting rather than do something corporate
@MichaelStolarzair conditioning + washer/dryer + dishwasher = peak efficiency.
@BasedNorthmathr
It’s uncanny how easy it is
@MichaelStolarzoh, you go off of LLM benchmarks? that’s cute, we go off vibes here, much more accurate
@MichaelStolarzi disagree, i'm giving my 5yo daughter a thinkpad with a fresh arch installation and a little homemade robot with a local LLM installed on it, that's all she can use to figure out how to set everything up from scratch
@yacineMTB
i'm not going to give my kids phones or laptops theyll get a portable daylight paper monitor with a pi glued to the back of it if they want to watch paw patrol, they will have to learn how to ssh to their dedicated naked basement debian server, set up the network and use yt-dlp
@MichaelStolarzi wish cigarettes weren't bad for you. it's such a waste of such a cool name for a thing. and the action itself is so cool too. fuck. i can't wait for healthcare to get to the point where cigarette smoking damage to your body can be neutralized / offset by like a pill or smth
@MichaelStolarzall i need is God, zero sugar monster, and armodafinil
@MichaelStolarzit makes me so happy seeing all the youngsters hyping up nvim, brings a tear to my eye, nvim is an artform, a way of life
@MichaelStolarz👀 grok 1.5 in the next few days it seems
@MichaelStolarzsonnet 3.5 is current SOTA coding model
@MichaelStolarzi hate writing out documentation; i ship too fast. thankfully i'm figuring out how to update documentation automatically with each new feature add/change
@MichaelStolarzsonnet 3.5 is like opus, that's all. no noticeable improvements over opus.
that being said, that alone is big.
@MichaelStolarzSingularity will happen in the future maybe earlier.
@Devgymsetvfx
Singularity will happen after 2030 maybe earlier.
@MichaelStolarzsometimes i dive deep into a twitter thread to the point where I go "holy fuck, this person exists and believes all this shit" and it feels so doom-ery, only going back to coding problems cleanses my mind again
@MichaelStolarzrunway gen-3 seems sora level tbh
@MichaelStolarzuntil the customer has no idea they're talking to an AI, this will never be able to replace actual workers taking an order from the drive through
basically it needs to pass an auditory turing-like test
@xlr8harder
McDonald's drive through is highly optimized and metrics driven, and this indicates a real failure to optimize the process with AI. On the other hand, models are improving every day. AI order taking will be back. x.com/axios/status/1…
@MichaelStolarznothing worked for putting me to sleep until I figured it out - listening to 3hr interrogation videos, uncut. i fall asleep within the first 10 minutes
@nico_jeannen
@levelsio I already use melatonin 3mg and magnesium, it works but if I’m too stressed/anxious it don’t really help And I also keep waking up at 4AM, my body don’t want to get more than 7h somehow, apparently CBD helps
@MichaelStolarzif you once tweeted something similar to what I just posted, you should link that tweet in the replies, that would be so hilarious haha

@MichaelStolarzi had a team member a long time ago that only knew how to push updates to git, and all their commit messages were just the word "update" and nothing else granted, he was one of the best on the team. funny how that works. sometimes i wonder if maybe he did know how to use git but… Less
i had a team member a long time ago that only knew how to push updates to git, and all their commit messages were just the word "update" and nothing else
granted, he was one of the best on the team. funny how that works. sometimes i wonder if maybe he did know how to use git but just found it a waste of time
@theo
I still can’t fathom how saying “you should learn git if you want a job writing code” is controversial
@MichaelStolarzi don't think people understand how easy it is to just make things you can literally think of some process that you do throughout the day, whether it be talking about something you're passionate about or walking outside or just dicking around on your computer, and you can find a… Less
i don't think people understand how easy it is to just make things
you can literally think of some process that you do throughout the day, whether it be talking about something you're passionate about or walking outside or just dicking around on your computer, and you can find a way to monetize it effectively in millions of different ways.
and yet people don't do that because of some sort of limbic friction that they experience, or they're stuck because they think that their time is better spent doing non-action items such as watching another billionaire guru explain to them why they need to take five cold showers a day
@MichaelStolarzi have yet to have a meeting that couldn't have been solved through a DM back-and-forth (which i can then reference afterwards to make sure i get everything word-for-word, literally)
i dont see any benefits of having meetings other than the illusion of productivity
@ash_lmb
A quick call can turn into a long fall from productivity. 😆
@MichaelStolarzyou dont need to pay $100 for parallels bloatware, you can just use UTM instead. literally no downsides
@MichaelStolarz
@tekbog
i just need to lock in and cook
@MichaelStolarzok but I seriously don’t know one person who will be voting for Biden (without the “he’s the lesser of two evils!” argument).
even those who hate Trump with all their being - they’re not voting this election, they tell me
@MichaelStolarzeasiest way to see if someone is in the same plane is to tell them "you can just do things". if they argue no and give you their reasonings as to why, they're not on the same plane
i literally cannot think of one thing that i "can't do" it just takes prep + plan + execute
@MichaelStolarzok I have 4 more shitposts to go today, waiting for something interesting to comment on, give me a min
@MichaelStolarzall the people in the comments saying "bro u just have to xyz" or "it basically never breaks for me" don't understand end users at all and only think with their nerd brains, not general consumer brains
my mom has been using a macbook for 10+ years. the same one. never fucked up
@falconerd
I used Linux for 10ish years. Up until 2023 Your whole system shouldn't break on automatic updates Your WiFi and Bluetooth should just work People aren't gonna use it until these things are fixed
@MichaelStolarzban “what do you notice” from your timeline. you’re welcome
@MichaelStolarzit's insane to me that openai doesn't train their models to be experts in... their own openai api documentation. it should know everything about every single part of openai, but it... doesn't
so disappointing
