The current wave of AI tools is incredibly cool. I hope more people get distracted by the incredible coolness and bet on this wave of AI, because I'm betting the other way, on the hot mess of human general intelligence.

Using neural nets trained on other people’s work to create (and often profit from) new work in their style without compensation is problematic. I don’t think that doing the same for upscaling algorithms is. Upscalers can reduce the hardware requirements for games, support remastering old media, etc. which isn’t really the same as laundering someone else’s creativity and profiting from it at their expense. Upscalers feel more like bicycles..

I recently bought Dirty Rat , the absolute banger from Orbital’s 2023 Optical Delusion. It couldn’t be anything different, given that it’s a collaboration between the seminal electronic duo that emerged from the rave era and one of my British favorites, Sleaford Mods. Sleaford Mods’ barbed lyrics perfectly augment Orbital’s concrete-heavy digitalism. Mods’ James Williamson lambasts the people, “blaming everyone in the hospital, everyone ..

I handed my notice in recently. Unlike every other blog post which begins with that sentence, everything surrounding it has been amicable and mundane; I simply want to move onto something that’s more applicable to me 1 . There’s no juicy tale of workplace treachery to be found here, just musings on my insecurities. For the last few years the thought of leaving has been bubbling away in my head, but each time it was about to spill over....

I've made this seafood stew a handful of times and it's always delivered. Garlic almond paste 1/8 cup of olive oil. 8 cloves of garlic chopped. 1/4 cup almond meal (flour). Cook garlic in low-medium heat until softened. Add almond meal and cook 3-4 mins or until golden. Set aside to cool. 1 large handful of parsley. Blend the almond mixture to make a paste. Set aside.

A little over a month ago, I joined EnterpriseDB on a distributed Postgres product ( PGD ). The process of onboarding myself has been pretty similar at each company in the last decade, though I think I've gotten better at it. The process is of course influenced by the team, and my coworkers have been excellent. Still, I wanted to share my thought process and personal strategies. Avoid, at first, what is always challenging Trickier things a....

Most people likely already know and use the voice dictation feature in iOS and macOS all day, but I’ve only now seen the light. Yesterday, I discovered I could dictate text notes to my iPhone, even offline. It works with Obsidian, WhatsApp, and any other app where I need to enter text, like the Safari search box. I suck at entering text on the phone. I also hate WhatsApp audio messages, but I often recur to them as, again, I suck at typin..

Medieval monks also needed help with focus and attention. Joel J Miller discusses this in What Monks Know About Focus , the latest issue of Miller’s Book Review, which I recently discovered and shows great promise. While technology has evolved in the last fifteen hundred years, the human brain has not. And few people in the ancient world cared as much about the challenges of attention and distraction as monks. Our reasons might differ ..
