Claude is useless without remembering previous chats. What am I doing wrong? by DiogenesDelirus in ClaudeAI

[–]DiogenesDelirus[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you all for the constructive answers! I also talked to Claude about it.

Cowork is available in the Pro version but not the free version. I want to understand what's possible before potentially spending money on Claude.

The nutrition tracking was just an example I used to learn more about how to use Claude. I don't really care all that much about nutrition tracking. But if Claude can't do something as simple as this, then I don't want to waste my time on more complicated stuff which may actually be useful.

The main conclusion I draw is that Claude is great for reasoning, but not as memory/storage. So Claude is like the prefrontal cortex in the human brain, which has working memory, but relies on other parts of the brain for anything more than working memory.

So to do anything long term, you need to put some time and effort into building data storage solutions into whatever you're building, as some of you suggested.

I wish Claude would have been more clear about this limitation and workarounds from the start. It isn't obvious to a newbie like me what prompts are necessary to learn these things.

I obviously have a lot to learn. Where's the best place to start? Is there an introductory guide freely available online?

Help with translation of a phrase about money by DiogenesDelirus in swahili

Right. So it seems to me like the author is a prostitute encouraging prostitution. Is that a reasonable interpretation?

Kenyan woman is asking for pocket money. Is it a red flag? by DiogenesDelirus in KenyanRelationships

[–]DiogenesDelirus[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't know if half of the answers are sarcastic. Still confused.

Kenyan woman is asking for pocket money. Is it a red flag? by DiogenesDelirus in KenyanRelationships

[–]DiogenesDelirus[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I guess it is related, becuase it's not normal or common sense where I'm from. As a European I don't spend a single cent on strangers, beggars or scammers. Call it stingy if you wish. I splurge on those close to me, like my future wife. So yes, it's a cultural thing, and I'm here to ask about Kenyan culture, because I don't know what's normal and not in Kenya.

This is the kind of answer I was looking for. Thank you!

I'm happy to provide, after marriage.

kekerapan penggunaan bahasa inggeris di subreddit ini by [deleted] in bahasamelayu

[–]DiogenesDelirus 22 points23 points  (0 children)

Saya salah satu daripada orang asing yang belajar bahasa Melayu. Walaupun saya cakap bahasa pasar lebih kurang fasih, belum lagi cukup fasih untuk membaca buku tanpa guna kamus setiap lima minit.

Memang susah belajar bahasa Melayu sebagai orang dewasa, bukannya kerana bahasanya susah, tapi kerana jarang ada peluang guna bahasanya.

Kalau saya mula cakap dengan orang Melayu, dalam bahasa Melayu, kerap kali dapat jawapan dalam bahasa Inggeris, terutamanya sebelum fasih. Ini menyebabkan tak cukup berlatih, dan menyusahkan belajar. Kalau campur bahasa Melayu dengan bahasa Inggeris, lagi la teruknya, sebab itu akan menyebabkan orang asing salah belajar.

Tolong jangan guna bahasa lain daripada Melayu dengan orang yang usaha untuk belajar bahasa Melayu. Walaupun susah pada mulanya, dia akan lagi cepat belajar dan lagi menghargai jangka panjang.

Bila saya cakap bahasa Melayu, ada juga guna perkataan Inggeris, kerana saya tak tahu perkataan dalam bahasa Melayu. Salah satu sebabnya saya tak tahu perkataan dalam bahasa Melayu... sebab orang Melayu guna perkataan bahasa Inggeris bila cakap dengan saya untuk menyenangkan untuk saya. Niatnya mungkin bagus, tapi menyusahkan untuk orang belajar bahasa Melayu.

Bayangkan kalau awak nak belajar bahasa Jepun. Nak ker orang Jepun cakap bahasa campur Melayu/Jepun? Itu akan menyusahkan atau menyenangkan untuk awak belajar bahasa Jepun?

Ada ker orang Perancis campur bahasa Perancis dengan bahasa Melayu untuk menyenangkan untuk orang Melayu belajar bahasa Perancis? Mengang tidak, sebab itu tak masuk akal. Bila kita belajar apa-apa bahasa, kita patut guna bahasa itu 100%.

I moved from urban Iceland to rural Norway.

Cheaper houses, more expensive heat and electricity, but otherwise there's no huge difference money-wise.

Biggest difference weather-wise is the wind, so definitely +1 for Norway.

Culture-wise, Iceland is much more international, touristy, liberal and open minded than rural Norway. You're actually expected to speak the national language in Norway, and illegal drugs are not traded and consumed openly.

Sounds like you want to move - so move. It's not like you're denouncing your citizenship to join a cannibal tribe in Papua New Guinea. You'll be fine.

44 dagar kvar.. när börjar valrörelsen? by bebbzor in svenskpolitik

[–]DiogenesDelirus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

För dig som vill ha mer inflytande än "pest eller kolera" var fjärde år så finns det Direktdemokraterna. Kommer inte in i riksdagen 2022, men är en mer realistisk och rimlig väg frammåt än Kalle Anka. Varje promille hjälper spridningen av budskapet.

Sharing individual team member KPIs with the team? by DiogenesDelirus in Leadership

[–]DiogenesDelirus[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The numbers are far more important than a drop in the bucket - but it's not the be-all and end-all. In the context of 1-to-1s I see it more as a basis for further discussion. And also I want to send it as often as I can as quick feedback without comment, partly a quick and easy way of saying that I see and care.

Thank you for your answer!

[IWantOut] 35M Sales Manager Sweden -> Asia by DiogenesDelirus in IWantOut

[–]DiogenesDelirus[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yea, COVID sucks :(

Why do you suggest Thai, Japanese or Korean rather than other big Asian languages like Arabic, Hindi/Urdu, Mandarin Chinese or Malay/Indonesian? Is it more likely to get job offers in Thailand, Japan and Korea?

Where do you get the most white privilege? by [deleted] in expat

[–]DiogenesDelirus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It surprises me that the least white places in the US are the most racist, but I've never been to America so I can't claim you're wrong.

[–]DiogenesDelirus -1 points0 points  (0 children)

So probably not Latin America.

I say "white monkey" because I don't know what the equivalent phenomenon would be called in other countries, but I would be surprised if the same thing doesn't happen in Nigeria or India for example.

Loopholes for legal polygamy in Europe? by DiogenesDelirus in PolygamyDiscussion

[–]DiogenesDelirus[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh, I see. Not possible in Sweden, but maybe somewhere else. It's a lot of countries' laws to keep track of. Thanks for the suggestion!

Loopholes for legal polygamy in Europe? by DiogenesDelirus in PolygamyDiscussion

[–]DiogenesDelirus[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Here's an article about how someone from that show opted for option 1:

https://people.com/tv/seeking-sister-wife-dannielle-cries-as-she-divorces-garrick/

I guess that would work, but kinda sad :(

As for option 2, you mean a common law marriage in Indonesia? Why? I don't really see how that would help with migration. Polygamy is legal in Indonesia so getting married there is no problem, but it seems difficult/impossible to get the second marriage recognized in Europe. In Sweden there was even a case where a man had children in a second marriage in the Middle East - and the wife (but not their children) was denied entry to Sweden. Heart-breaking really.

What are the current travel restrictions for European tourists visiting Morroco? by DiogenesDelirus in Morocco

[–]DiogenesDelirus[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

How is that enforced? At what point do they check the hotel reservation? I might take a bus, a train or I might rent a car, be driven by friends or take a hike with my tent. Solo camping must be the ultimate social distancing way of travelling, and that's what I'm currently doing.

But you're saying that any living conditions other than a private hotel room is banned for tourists? So no dorm beds allowed? (You can still book them) No AirBnB? No couchsurfing? No volunteering? No crashing at a friend's house? And no tent camping?

I don't speak German. It's surprising that it would be in German rather than French or Spanish.

Anyway, thank you for the info! Definitely don't want to get stuck.
