I feel you microkorg, my whole team was laid off two weeks ago. Fun times.
- I feel for you. What kind of work was your team doing, and how's the company going to do that work going forward? (if at all.)monNom
- So sorry man. It’s sick seeing the market suddenly flooded with talentmonospaced
- you too? man. sorry.renderedred
- Yeah, months now. I took a break for the holidays, and to get a computer and work on a portfolio. It’s been a process. Fuck.monospaced
- Now I realize you were responding to robot, not me. Good luck let me know how I can help.monospaced
- Going to be fun clobbing together a folio!
Not liking look of some comments saying a year plus looking and lots of seniors looking for work. eek!microkorg

Interesting idea to link playlists to the tracks on the artists Bandcamp pages to encourage purchases. Not sure how new it is.

Artificial Intelligence
Claude is destroying ChatGPT for me in terms of coding. I started building generative art tools last year and hit limits with GPT in terms of accuracy, quality, and ability to follow instructions.
I was amazed that I could take one of the tools I built that I'd maxed out in GPT (800 lines of JS), drop it into Claude, ask it to tell me what it thought the code did (100% accurate and insightful), and then immediately add new features flawlessly.
Since someone in a Slack group suggested Claude,I haven't been able to stop working on the things I'm building. I can code but not much JS and I'm just astounded at its ability to create code that does what I need it to. After I wrap up these projects I'm moving on to learning more X code to build an app I've had on my mind for a while. I was starting that in GPT but Claude is going to be so much better.
- Word is the old one 3.5 is still good, the new 3.7 it's "too much"grafician
- still not capable of building secure, reliable applications IMO. i still have to get my hands dirty.kingsteven
- I'm expecting that for sure, I just love what quick work it makes of things that would otherwise be an extensive tutorial, or random code snippets.mg33
- totally, as a coder sometimes it seems like i spend more time itemising development to frame it in a way the LLM can give reliable results than it would take tokingsteven
- do it myself, but it's usually worthwhile as i end up with a full featured app in a week rather than a working prototypekingsteven
- I've moved all my tools to my local server, but I'll have to share them at some point. It's basically things that you could do in PS or Illustrator, butmg33
- generatively and quickly. One is a generative collage tool with various parameters, randomized image assets from my assets folders, shapesmg33
- lines, layer effects, etc. The other is a grid based pattern tool with SVG shapes, and ability to adjust padding + and - for overlay effects with blend modes.mg33
- Both create art like this: https://www.instagra…mg33
- It's fun, because it's taking me back to the art I liked making in PS in the early 2000s, but generatively, and with code. It made being out of work last yearmg33
- tolerable because it kept my more engaged than even some work-based project work could.mg33
- sorry, but I can create all that art in any vector app even Figma in like 5 mins man
Whay do you need to code apps to output that?grafician - Instead I would code some apps and put them in the Appstore and get cash for the effort
"Vibe coding" is shitgrafician - Where can I go to learnnb
- ask chatgpt :))grafician
- graf - The randomization of it is what's enjoyable. I could make that in Figla, Illustrator, or PS quickly too, but I enjoy building these things and it helpsmg33
- me generate a wide range of ideas quickly that I can then import SVGS from and further customize, incorporate images, etc.mg33

That's a big loss.

- His wife and dog also found dead.mort_
- Co2 ?tank02
- Yikes! :(Akagiyama
- Terrible. He was a quality actor for decades.CyBrainX
- This scene is a bit weird though right? FBI agent crushing a guys dick with his hand?nb
- Carbon Monoxide?dbloc
- Latest says no signs of CO, but there was an open pill bottle found by his wife's body, the front door was open, and her hands and feet had mumufied, so...elahon
- ...they had been dead for some time. My guess is she poisoned him, then herself. But he was found on the mudroom floor, and she was on the bathroom floor...elahon

Two weeks ago: flu. Ibuprofen, cuppa tea, alright in 4 days. The cough lingered, two or three days of coughing up demons. Week 1 comes to an end. Unbearable headache. Ibuprofen. I think, “Nah, I can’t be sick again... with what?”
The next day: massive jaw pain. “Okay, time to see the doctor.”
Doctor: “You have ACUTE OTITIS.”
Five days on antibiotics, the pain persists. Tinnitus.
Bye.- Getting over my third cold of the season too. A lot of funky strains of viruses going round...stay strong!stoplying

- Que te mejores! Usa paracetamol en vez de Ibuprofeno para los dolores de cabeza, y si puedes conseguir en UY, prueba el naproxeno, menos agresivo que el ibuOBBTKN
- El naproxeno me lo recomendó un amigo fisio... Tiene clientes médicos y los muy coquetos no querian engordar con el ibu (por los riñones...).OBBTKN
