3d printing a tool wall at my desk. most of it is taken from printables but this hook I designed myself.
  • It feels like a very specific print because it's literally for this wrench but guess I'm going to post them when I am done with all the tools. Follow me on printables I guess. I use the same username for printables and thingiverse that I use here.

  • 3d printing a tool wall at my desk. most of it is taken from printables but this hook I designed myself.

    I scanned the wrench on a regular document scanner and used the siluette to get the optimum hook shape. It worked incredibly well and it sits perfectly. Thats important because I don't want the tools to raddle every time someone slams the door or I open a window.

    Chat GPT and the keynote address
  • It was gpt-4 I was using. It could be that you wrote it as one instruction and your intensions were very clear from the beginning while I explained it across multiple changes and clarifications when I noticed it wasn't giving me quite what I wanted.

    Part of it is that I was intentionally being very human in my instructions, leaving it open to interpretation and then clarifying or adding things as I brainstormed. Its a messy way of doing it but if AI needs to be able to handle messy instructions in order to be considered on par with people.

    Edit: turns out it wasnt gpt-4 I was using i was using the free chat on openais website. I was not aware that they were different.

  • Chat GPT and the keynote address
  • Yeah, the illusion is quickly dispelled once you spend any time with it. I was trying it out when I was doing worldbuilding for a story I was writing. If you ask it to name 20 towns and describe them it spits out a numbered list. Same with characters. But then I asked it to make the names quirkier and it just used the same names again and described all the towns as quirky. I also asked it to make characters with names that are also adjectives and then describe them. Names like Able, Dusty, Sunny, Major.

    The first iteration had a list of names and a description but the description always related to the adjective. Sunny had a sunny disposition and a bright smile. I told it the description should be unrelated to the name and it did the same thing again. I told it to change the name but not the description and it still rewrite the descriptors to match the name but didn't change the structure.

    Nothing I told it could make it move off the idea that a man called sunny must be sunny. It basically can't be creative or even random when completing tasks.

    This is fine when writing dry material that nobody will read but if you want someone to enjoy reading or listening to what is written then the human spark is required.

  • ‘Continued genocide’: First Nations leaders disturbed by effort to dig up unmarked graves in B.C.
  • If there is a conspiracy that made up those dead children, there is nothing preventing the conspirators from just burying face skeletons. The denialist were 100% going to steal those skeletons.

    And even then there is no way of proving anything because the conspirators could just have taken bodies from another cemetery and placed them there. There was literally no point to this and it's just far right nutjob harassing people.

  • Do You Think There Would Have Been a Large Protest if Steve Huffman Just Said We're Charging to Use the API to Increase Revenue?
  • That is just a trap. Any app that gets exceptions will either be heavily restricted or instantly get too many users and reddit can then claim it's not just an accessibility app. They have not spent any time thinking about how that would work and they just said it because it was an argument against them. If they cared even for a second about accessibility the app would already have it but they they chose to add NFTs to the app instead.

  • Pokemon Go gym etiquette? (I’m new)
  • One time I started taking a gym and after 3 minutes I saw a 20+ year old man sprinting down the street, yelling at me. I was on a bike so I just biked away because I did not feel the need to get stabbed over pokemon go.

    So, don't do that and you will probably be fine. If it's a gym close to your place and you notice that it gets taken at the same time every day you could shift your habits around so that you both get a couple of hours. My dad is a pensioner and he grabs a gym each morning walk and some kids grab it back on their way home from school. Nobody get a perfect coin pay from it but they get fair amounts. The push and pull of gyms is part of the game

  • Used a spare piece of countertop to make a noodle board
  • Are the handles made of pipes or just made to look like pipes? If it's the first, what would you Google for if you want that kind of pipe. I love the pipe estethic but when I look for it on Google I always get ugly or plastic piping.

  • I just deleted 12 years of content. Feels weird
  • Imagine all the real life conversations you have had that isn't documented in any way and you have forgotten ever took place. People that you dont even know you've forgotten. That is a part of life and even if old conversations are valuable, they are not as valuable as making new ones.
