Last year, I created an Instagram account to serve as a calendar for art events at small galleries in Hamburg that interest me: instagram.com/kleineorte/ Some people started following it and the growth even looks exponential.

I usually learn about new technology by listening to podcasts or YouTube videos. But I have not found one about the AT Protocol that powers Bluesky. Any tips?

I just discovered that with nested CSS and :has(), you can now restyle any aspect of a page based on whether a certain checkbox is set. Pretty useful.

My favorite test prompt for AI coding tools: Make a simple HTML page which uses the VideoEncoder API to create a video that the user can download. So far, not a single AI has managed to create a working solution.

One Year Later ... AI: I did it! I finally surpassed Reddit! ChatGPT: Haha, I'm already ahead of you! Bing: Wait, I'm still trying to figure out how to make a simple web interface! Bard: I'm Gemini now! Wait for me!

Experimenting with a tablet based development workflow. #buildinpublic

I started adding additional infos on the productchart.com item pages when hovering the data fields with the mouse. The iPad Pro has a nice aspect ratio of 1.33. Most tablets are at 1.6. To me, the more squarish, the better. Also nicely lightweight at 578g for 13 inch.

There is no such thing as "overprovisioning" when it comes to AI infrastructure. Ultimately, we'll want to transform all energy available to us into as many thought processes as possible. We'll leave the machines always on, thinking about how to improve our world.

With the json arrow functions SQLite makes a nice document store. If you have a json "book" column, then selecting all book names: SELECT book->>'name' FROM books; But I miss auto increments. Without an additional "id" column, inserting a book with a unique id is tricky.

The html-editor with instant preview is still my favorite tool to do HTML/CSS/JS experiments on the go. no-gravity.github.io/html_editor/ So I added a some more features today to make it more convenient.

In the era of AI, the intelligence of a country will be equal to electricity * chips * software Not sure how it will look on the chips and software front. But in terms of electricity, China seems to be hard to catch up with.

Today I felt inspired to write down some thoughts about the current state of LLM-based coding and about a prompt coding experiment I am conducting: gibney.org/prompt_coding

Technology marches on. The Samsung 9100 PRO is now the fastest drive on our SSD comparison chart: productchart.com/ssd_drives/

18 months later: x.com/OpenAI/status/… AI videos now have sound! Humans, animals, and physics already look realistic enough that one might enjoy a full movie. Resolution is still somewhat low and the videos are still just a few seconds long. We appear to be on track.

Meanwhile on the physical side, the hardware for walking seems to be ready: x.com/UnitreeRobotic… I guess these are prerecorded motions. But it shows how capable the hardware is. Quite an update from 18 years ago when I first saw a walking robot: youtube.com/watch?v=_CQ5AK…

I 3D printed a little adapter to add a flashlight to my Swiffer. I call it the "Swiffer Explorer" now.
