- brumarInteresting. Skills on MCP makes a lot of sense in some contexts.
- Lazy from me to not check if I remember well or not, but the dev that got productivity gains was a regular user of cursor.
- Yes. Rather a lack of control of the subject and intensity of focus. Which piss everyone off because they can't steer it from the outside, hence the "lack of focus" perspective.
- Yes. I did not look but most probably the non interactive mode flag is used (-p)
- To find "How many moves in a game does it take to reach this position". Which was a wrong interpretation.
- This is very different to my experience and I am wondering why. Maybe because I come from chess and can't help myself to compare it with this frame of reference. Anyway I felt that my progress up to 5k was largely driven by a better understanding of principles of plays than tactical training. As a thought experiment, I feel that its possible to adopt a very risk averse style that negates tactical complexities to the expense of many points on the board and still largely win against weaker players. It's not my experience with chess. If you suck at tactics, your elo sucks too.
- Same. I was astonished it was remotely possible to do this.
- Are dependencies easier to install or does it work only for packages that have pure wheel support?
- Correct me if I am wrong, but Docling can do both. It has also, among other strategies, a non-AI pipeline to determine the layout (based on qpdf I believe). So these projects are not that different.
- Of course I had to generate the legendary "shit on a stick". But for chefs. https://anycrap.shop/product/shit-on-a-stick-for-chefs
- These days, I spend time training people using this kind of tools. I am glad it's called as such. It's much comfortable to explain to a tech person that it's "badly named" and that it should have been named "Code Interpreter" instead than explaining to a non tech that the "Code Interpreter" feature is a new cool way to generate documents. Most people are not that comfortable with technology, so avoiding big words is a nice to have.
- 1 day later: it's a total mess.
- Very good. I was wondering why nobody did something like that before. At least this was my conclusion from my google searches few months ago. From a design perspective, I don't like storing state in the DOM itself, I would have find much more flexible to have the state in a json as a single source of truth and use reactive patterns such as state change => ui change and not hiting the DOM directly. That sounds like big framework things, but it saved me from acute headaches in a personal similar framework I did for self-contained apps. It was not HTML but I thought I would apply the same logic if I had to do it for html apps too.
- Thanks. I'll add the answer to my own question too: pdfLib is the dependency at work to make it work in the browser runtime.
- I like the idea but that seems complex to put in place and would risk degrading the perfs.
You can test this prompt yourself elsewhere, you will notice that you get sensibly the same experience.
- I got this one which seems to confirm yours : https://gist.github.com/brumar/5888324c296a8730c55e8ee24cca9...
- 20 years ago I was addicted to a game like that named Globalcombat.com. Good times. Few years ago it was still alive. Now it seems gone.
- Correction: extract monstreous profits. When I read about the revenues associated with Reddit AI deals, I can't even imagine what could possibly be deals that cover half of the internet. Cynically speaking, it's a genious level move.
- I am doing pdf-as-software so that I can get a free ticket for hell or a nearby mental asylum.
