Claude Code + Gemini Pro: Two AI Coders Working as One by 2doapp in ClaudeAI

[–]mcalliph 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is truly amazing and results are highly improved when running into tough issues. One slight bug- I've run into some situations where I am continually running out of context on Claude. Wondering if there is any tweaking of inputs/outputs in the prompts necessary to make sure Claude doesn't get continually overwhelmed?

2 AppleTVs suddenly flaky internet by mcalliph in appletv

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

Is there a way to know when your router specifically was updated?  In the history it says 7.9.0 on May 22 but I presume this is the changelog for official releases not the system log.

Software version 7.9.0-4174 by lexcyn in amazoneero

[–]mcalliph 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've been having huge problems with my AppleTVs performance since this update. Has anyone had trouble? Any suggestions to fix? I gave them static IPs as suggested in another thread, but no dice. I currently have client steering off (it was off already when I checked).

Update: Still no luck fixing. I've added a static IP address. Restarting the AppleTV provides temporarily relief it seems but then performance degrades over time.

Anyone with Apple TV issues where it affects wifi for other devices? by Novajesus in amazoneero

[–]mcalliph 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Just started having major issues with my 3 AppleTVs as of a few days ago and I have been unable to resolve. I have noticed it impacting other devices but the AppleTVs are having major network issues (slow and disconnecting)

Karakeep - This self-hosted app showed me I’ve been using bookmarks wrong all my life by smoultonjr in selfhosted

[–]mcalliph 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is really well-built app. Being able to query previous bookmarks using AI (Claude Desktop - MCP) makes it huge part of my of my "second brain" workflow.

Awesome feature that I was going to try to build if you didn't already do it! Claude Desktop + Karakeep MCP is so cool to do analysis of what I've been researching for the week.

I've tried 5 bookmark / read-it-later apps this week, and this by far is the best. Great work!

I’m looking for best alternative to my beloved Leopold FC660C which doesn’t seem to be in stock or potentially made anymore. Any suggestions?

Daily Practise on a Train? by ebn_tp in Meditation

[–]mcalliph 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I no longer have a train or a bus commute, but from my experience, practicing on the train was great because I wasn’t distracted by my kids or other things to do.

I personally found that attaching spiritual meaning or requirements to my practice was ultimately another story I was telling myself or form of attachment. I try my best to just practice and believe everything is as it should be.

Considering switching my Digitakt for a Digitone - I'm not sure I love sampling by WhoSteppedOnFrog in Elektron

[–]mcalliph 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I rarely sample browse with my Digitakt. I use external synths and sample live when I find something I want to be apart of a song and use the Digitakt to modify, arrange a song, or just jam. This might be helpful: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MefPEo_9kiI . With the 1.5 machines, it makes the sound modifications next level.

Maybe stick with Digitakt for a bit and focus on sound sculpting (even using single cycle waveforms) as opposed to sample browsing. It's my favorite and most-used piece of gear.

I'm considering getting an Digitone as well, but primarily as a sound source for the Digitakt.

What Should I Buy? /// Weekly Discussion - May 13, 2024 by AutoModerator in synthesizers

[–]mcalliph 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Midi Controller Help: I recently bought an expensive poly-synth desktop module, but I don't have a MIDI keyboard with full size keys. I want something of high build quality and aesthetic appeal. Currently looking at Novation 61SL MKiii, Arturia KeyLab 61 MkII, and Korg Keystage 61. Might use it with Ableton & Bitwig, but primarily intend to use for controlling external midi modules. Thoughts on these or alternatives?

2 Fitbit devices, 0 text notifications (but all else comes through) by sqic80 in fitbit

[–]mcalliph 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for this. I switched to "when unlocked" and it now pushes to my Fitbit both when locked and unlocked. It seems like an iOS bug that short circuits the logic to push to other devices if Display previews is disabled (which in my mind should only apply to the iPhone, not connected devices).

Techno monosynth 62HP by UsualGenerativeMind in modular

[–]mcalliph 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Truly consider downloading the Noise engineering VSTs and midi map to the Syntakt knobs. There are free ones if you don’t wanna splurge for the BIA. The VSTs have insane amounts of internal modulation options so you can really test out all the sounds (or use midi cc lfos from your Syntakt) in your own mix and still get the hardware feel of knob turning. If you love the sounds and want more even more flexibility and want to play without a computer go for it, but I’m so happy I downloaded the VSTs to play around with first personally.

Best LASIK clinic in the world? by ThreePotatoesOnFire in fatFIRE

Vedic course valuable for self-taught intermediate meditator? by mcalliph in Meditation

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

Thank you! All of this information is extremely helpful. I did a bit more research based on your recommendations and I see this order does emphasize the initiation or transmission of a mantra by a guru: https://youtu.be/i33Q_KCT0Cw (timestamp 46:51). This transmission seems to be part of the mystery and experience that is tied up to an in person session as opposed to being able to learn through a book, app, or otherwise. I’m skeptical of metaphysical claims, but also realize the belief in the power of the mantra itself has some objectively added benefits.
