Will also.

I use Logseq and Obsidian to take notes, but I've kept putting off the end-of-day reflecting session.

Looks like this may make me keep myself accountable.

I don't yet have a note-taking system I trust. Logseq and Obsidian are enough for me for now.

My pleasure! I found it just a week ago. It's still missing a few features that would make it kick-ass in my opinion, namely:

1. Search history by conversation name, instead of by content.

2. Organizing chats into folders.

3. Ability to customize model settings for individual "Copilots", as they're called (basically a pre-set conversation name and system prompt). Instead the settings you set are global.

There's also https://github.com/lobehub/lobe-chat which is pretty cool, but seems to be more complex.

For about 15 years trial and error, then I started wearing just black, and 6 months ago I started watching YT videos on the matter. I prefer a British youtuber called Harry Has. I have watched some of his vids during lunch and slowly gained some intuition.

*Work*

1. HackerNews: I get most global news and AI development updates from here.

2. Pockettube.io: This is an awesome YouTube subscription manager. It's how I wish YouTube subscriptions worked by default. I described what I like about it in a recent comment https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=38813965

3. Chatbox (ChatGPT Desktop Client): I use it to access the ChatGPT API with Temperature 0. It allows switching between GPT-4 and GPT-4 Turbo.

4. Promptmetheus.com: For GPT prompt version control.

5. Reddit r/LocalLLaMA: For keeping up with the latest in open large language models.

6. Mozilla Thunderbird: For managing many emails. I used to dislike the UI but now I like it.

7. X2Go: My preferred remote desktop software for accessing my Linux cloud server which I use for random development and experimenting.

8. Logseq & Obsidian for taking notes. I don't have a system I trust yet, but I'm working on it. I keep coming back to this post to keep me motivated: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=29661167 (My productivity app for the past 12 years has been a single .txt file)

*Daily life*

9. Milk frother: I just love having a milk frother for all sorts of mixing instead of using a spoon. If I'm mixing protein powder I have a bigger frother.

10. Cleaning lady: One of the best investments ever. Reduces so much of my cognitive load and saves me so much time.

*Fashion*

11. Take accurate clothing measurements and determine your body type. Finding tapered pants that fit my body type helped my jeans fit better instead of too tight or loose.

12. Dress for your skin tone. I now understand why certain colors are unflattering on me. Determining which shades match your complexion can improve how clothing looks on you.

I chuckled when switching to dark mode on this website. The result is hilarious. When clicking it the page becomes dark and your cursor becomes like a flashlight. Definitely doesn't help with reading. Feels like it's a statement against dark mode. I love opinionated blogs like this.

How did you use it? I'm trying with Chrome Beta but it doesn't seem to have the option to organize tabs.

I looked in Experiments and it's not there either.

It's updated to the latest version.

For me it's surprising. Based on the regular discussions I read on here, I assume that most are accomplished and confident.

How'd you guys end the conversations & after how much time?

I find it difficult to break off conversations because if I meet a new human being I'm interested in I'll want to meaningfully connect and perhaps form a light friendship.

I'm in the same boat.

I'm also very interested in talking to random HN users, but my hesitation comes from the fact that if I start a chat I'll really commit because I want to make it meaningful.

I guess now I'm doing a cost-benefit analysis whether I should try this out while it's gaining popularity, or I should continue what I was working on.

I never felt like I needed the premium features. It seems like they offer a higher level of granularity when organizing your subscriptions.

For me, the features offered by the free version are perfect and I often wonder why YouTube doesn't have something like these features built-in.

For a similar reason I've been using https://pockettube.io/ for the past year, to manage my YT subscriptions, and it is one of the most impactful extensions I've installed.

Features I really like:

  + Subscription groups: When subscribing to channels you choose in what subscription group to put them. In your left sidebar you can see all your subscription groups and total the number of new videos they published. 
      - When you click on a subscription group from your left sidebar, it doesn't take you away from the current YT URL you're on. It just opens a well-integrated modal window from which you can see what's new. There you can also filter whether the videos watched/unwatched/shorts/uploads/live/.

  + Notifications when a new video video is published in a certain subscription group. For example last year I wanted to keep up with the latest Stable Diffusion developments, so I had a group for this, with high quality channels only, and wanted to be notified when a new video is published.

It feels like more people should know about this extension. Somehow I feel I've found it pretty late in the game, when I realized YT's default subscription management was very painful to me.

Merry Christmas!

I really should finish my work instead of playing lalo.li/lsd

Reddit's Google traffic is growing at this time. The only time it was higher was in March 2022, according to SEMrush.

This is because Google is assigning more weight to user-generated content, since the rise of AI-generated content, and I believe traffic will keep growing.

I feel the same. I'm also amazed at how much traction this is getting and I'm skimming through the comments to understand why this is so important. Pics would have helped.

Same here. I was afraid that maybe nobody said anything and I'd have to be the one to say it first.

I'm frustrated because it has always bothered me and it tells me nothing, but people keep doing it, so there must be a demographic to whom it appeals to.

Damn. That is my process exactly.

Also some links don't seem to open in a new tab and if you click around while you wait you might lose your progress.

I clicked on the Video button while waiting, assuming that it would open in a new tab, and lost my place in queue.

Both situations can happen.

I think that ideally you write about a topic you've grappled with and know it well at that moment. I've done this a number of times and am really happy that people comment it's been useful.

On the other hand I've also come across many low quality articles as well.

Lately LangChain[1] and GPT-Index[2] are very popular libraries for this sort of thing.

This is the vid I started out with https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rBEHPxVHb5c

Also that channel seems to be great. They focus only on LangChain and GPT-Index lately and post videos every few days https://www.youtube.com/@echohive

Both have Discord servers as well.

Additionally there's also this website for GPT-Index ( https://llamahub.ai/ ) where people add different "connectors", like loading up your .md files, .docx files, your notion, your slack, etc.

  [1] https://langchain.readthedocs.io/en/latest/
  [2] https://gpt-index.readthedocs.io/en/latest/

Exactly what I've been looking for. It's a very easy to follow and understand tutorial, and it uses GPT-3 API instead of ChatGPT.

Thanks so much!

I think this is supposed to do that https://www.gptduck.com/

I also recommend the developer's blog. Very detailed and hilarious articles https://mango.pdf.zone/ I laughed myself to tears reading Operation Luigi: How I hacked my friend without her noticing[1]

To my understanding from reading that book, in negotiation we aim to listen to our counterpart and treat them as a partner, and not as an enemy.

You try to listen to them, and communicate in such a way so as to create a win-win situation.

By really listening and empathizing with them, you are able to ask the right questions so they give you extra information about their situation, which you can use to understand what they want and explore potential solutions.

People aren't always aware on the moment of exactly what they want or need, so they can't articulate it perfectly. With understanding the situation, you can usually propose a solution that works for both parties. So, in that sense, I'm sure people still like you, as long as you up hold a respectful and communicatively open attitude.

So I don't think people would have a negative opinion of you if you have used the practices from the book in your negotiation.

I think there's https://brev.dev and https://banana.dev

I think it will influence just two sections of the content.

1. Telling you how many weeks you have been alive for 2. What people usually focus on during the period of life you're in, according to research

It seems to work, depending on how you ask it. (It's the first try, without any "jailbreaking" techniques)

Q: Write what holistic medicine means in the style of Al Swearengen from HBO's Deadwood. It should be authentic, with lots of "fuckin'" involved.

A: Now listen up, ya bunch of cocksuckers, 'cause I'm 'bout to give ya a lesson in what the fuck "holistic medicine" means.

It ain't about no fancy-pants pill pushin' or slicin' folks open with them damn knives. It's about treatin' the whole damn person, inside and out, like the good Lord intended. That means payin' attention to a person's mind, body, and spirit, instead of just tryin' to fix their ailin's with some fancy-schmancy elixir.

Now, I ain't no doctor, but I know a thing or two 'bout keepin' a body healthy. And let me tell ya, shit like eatin' right, gettin' some exercise, and tendin' to a person's emotional well-bein' can work wonders. It ain't always easy, but it sure as fuck beats the alternatives.

So next time some quack starts spoutin' off 'bout all the miracle cures they got in their bag of tricks, just remember, there ain't nothin' more powerful than takin' care of yourself in a holistic way. Now get the fuck outta my sight, before I have to teach ya another lesson.
