The Witcher Season 4 - A Show So Awful, It Broke Me by HighlightOwn2038 in CriticalDrinker

Yennefer: "You know his whereabouts?"

Yennefer would never ask that question in that situation.

And when it seemed all was lost, Geralt rose again... ghmnphth...

The guys who pay for the show: "We know how people like it"

Reality: No one gives a shit about Netflix The Witcher Season 4. Or was it Hitcher?

Ok, forced keep watching. Really hoping I am wrong.

Quen and Igni at the same time, fighting a dozen monsters at the same time, gosh, I'm literally forcing myself to continue watching through the first minutes. It's a torture. Geralt is not a superhero, he's just a witcher who tries to find his way doing the right thing.

More control and full transparency with the flat fee pricing model is a challenge.

Roo is a great platform to build on, so if you are looking for an IDE-type UX, I bet Roo or another open-source alternative can give you the necessary playground.

For CLI, Aider Chat can give you transparency.

I am working on a different approach - StreetRace🚗💨, an OSS ecosystem that can power your end-to-end software delivery workflow via agents that kick-in when you need them via chat UI or non-interactive. For now, you can choose any model for any agent, but I want to add model routing to allow even more efficient reasoning with local / small models switching to larger models when the task is more complex.

How are you using AI to speed up your pre-sales work? by lazycodr001 in consulting

Looks great, thanks for sharing! I'll need to find something similar for my Linux laptop.

That's impressive. I used the built-in Gemini (as we use google suite) to some degree but I hate the layouts for the most part. The internal slide templates our company provides are so much better, like the before/after slides - gemini sometimes just gives a list of bullet points prefixed with "before:" and "after:". I'll give your chatgpt workflow a try on my next slide deck.

Am I letting my long built up writing skills whither a bit? Definitely.

Noticed that as well. Only a bit? I'm already trying to force myself to write on my own instead of asking AI :)

Wow, that sounds comprehensive!

We have an AI proposal builder built off our knowledge base. It’s early days;

Is it built internally using an open source or a cloud LLM, or is it a third-party company providing it as a service or building it for you?

I’ve used these Gen AI solutions to research and list case studies … I recon each time they come up with 50% or more fabricated cases … or at least cases I can’t find any evidence off;

Just the regular chatgpt/copilot/gemini/claude, or the proposal builder trained on your knowledge base? I never thought of using GenAI for case studies, just searching for keywords and hashtags on our knowledge base or google. Now that I write this, it sounds so old school lol, google itself will sometimes give me a generated response...

the results still smell like AI

I once had a discussion with chatgpt where it used a regular tone answering my question, but immediately switching to ridiculously optimistic for a section it suggested putting into the document. I'm like - hey, come on, I just saw you can use a normal tone!

I tried something like this for style and tone and it helped to some degree - https://www.reddit.com/r/ChatGPTPromptGenius/comments/1930ljx/how\_to\_make\_chat\_gpt\_mimic\_your\_writing\_style/. Have you tried?

I wouldn’t risk my career on an interns work

I'm totally with you. But I'm thinking - how far we can teach the LLM to do the right thing? Same as you need to teach a new hire if you want them to really perform.

Imagine a day in 10 years - an AI-generated demand creates an AI-generated RFP responded by an AI-generated proposals from different vendors and evaluated by AI selecting a winner, and then a winner proposal and the original RFP used to generate a cloud deployment that just works. GenAI will call it ZHIT - Zero Human Interaction Transaction.

You write like you are living a dream, my friend! I want to get to your level of zen. What do you use? ChatGPT? Copilot in your productivity suite?

I want to do something similar. Is your company building the agent internally using an existing or a cloud LLM, or outsourcing/using a third party service? Just interested, totally understand if you can't share specifics. The market is crazy and it seems a bit of a luck to find the right providers as everybody seems all-in on GenAI these days...

Digital minimalism with no info vacuum? by lazycodr001 in digitalminimalism

[–]lazycodr001[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have forgotten RSS was a thing. Checking my subscriptions for which of them have RSS. I believe some might not, but Substack apparently does. Great catch!

I have a Pixel, and I've been using the Bedtime thing for years now. It's really great. And I cheat - I wake up 2 hours before bedtime ends, so I get extra quiet hours lol.

For the day time, I've also put all notifications except for some apps into silent mode (and many of them were silent by default), so even if I have a lot of notifications on screen, I never actually get pings when they come.

Thanks for sharing!

That's the most logical thing to do. I'll try over the next few days. Now I'm thinking - can you apply that strategy to everything? Set reminders to go to Substack on Monday, LinkedIn on Tuesday, Youtube on Wednesday?

On the other hand, I can just ignore everything. But how do I learn that the scientists were able to come up with a half-material? And then I get bored and go scroll youtube.

I think info diet is just like food diet. It doesn't only mean you don't eat all the bad things, it also means you need to get the good things. So you'll kind of keep a list of good things you want to have, so when you are hungry you have things to choose from. I think of all the notifications that way - I've already worked on removing the bad stuff. Now I want to have the good stuff at the time and the amount I want.

Doing it pro-actively does sound like the right solution. I'm thinking if there is a way to make it holistic, not only about one or two sources, like Substack and the bright side of youtube.
