But isn't it normal for people who work on AI stuff to use LLMs for everything? They are very enthusiastic about AI so naturally they'll use it on everything they can.
That’s a bit reductive. Some do, others don’t. I do a lot of AI development, and building. But I value the act of writing for clarifying my thoughts. And I value other people’s time when reading my writing.
Skills are only loaded when you need them, so you’ll probably use fewer tokens overall compared to MCP servers or including them manually in your main AGENTS.md/CLAUDE.md file, which are always loaded in the system prompt.
> Earbuds don't have displays, so the only way to transfer data to/from them is either via bluetooth, or the UART contact pads.
Bluetooth is pretty slow, you'd be lucky to get a consistent 1mbps connection, UART is easily the better option.
Does this means you can run a doom instance on each bud? Is it viable to make a distributed app to use the computing power of both buds at once?
This was a stretch goal, multiplayer. One earbuds versus the other. It's not that hard to implement but I've got a few other things to clear away first.
Using them for distributed computation though? interesting use of free will xD
That's as obnoxious as texting unsolicited CAT FACTS to Ken Thompson!
Hi Ken Thompson! You are now subscribed to CAT FACTS! Did you know your cat does not concatenate cats, files, or time — it merely reveals them, like a Zen koan with STDOUT?
You replied STOP.
cat interpreted this as input and echoed it back.
You replied ^D.
cat received EOF, nodded politely, exited cleanly, and freed the terminal.
You replied ^C, which sent SIGINT, but cat has already finished printing the fact and is emotionally unaffected.
You replied ^Z.
cat is now stopped, but not gone.
It is waiting.
You tried kill -9 cat.
The signal was delivered.
Another cat appeared.
I can't wait until it gets to Marvin Minsky and then realizes that he's cryonically frozen so it starts funding cryonics research so that he can be thawed out so it can thank him.
My og chromecast frequently crash (I suspect due to running out of ram when casting contents) so I ended up replacing it with the chromecast ultra. The og chromecast is still usable if you can tolerate the crashing, but I imagine it's going to get worse as developers keep updating their cast players (basically a webpage that plays video) with new features that consume more and more ram.
It has modern features that requires relatively heavy processing such as facial recognition, finding similar images, ocr, transcoding videos, etc. I think it only needs those computing resources when you upload new images/videos.
Any idea how much it uses when you're not uploading new pictures?
If it just needs it on occasion (and I can control when by not uploading at times where I'm using it for other purposes), that would probably be worth it since I have the spare capacity 99% of the time
I think you can disable machine learning stuff in the settings. And yes, you can control when the sync happen, or even have it only triggered manually and never automatically.
My instance when not running any photo/video processing job:
Forgot to add immich_postgres which uses ~222 MB of ram. If you already has a postgres running somewhere, you might be able to reuse it as long as its version >= 14 with pgvector installed.
