There's one at the bottom of the page -- ugly, as you might have expected.

I had GLM-5.1 via Claude Code create a macOS driver for an unsupported USB gamepad with a proprietary protocol. I answered a few questions and then let it run while I was away at work. After two sessions I now have a working controller on macOS. It did the research, created the driver, and tested everything (with some manual testing on my part) within a few hours. Amazing.

Some modern 35mm emulsions can record ~500 megapixels worth of detail, but good luck getting all that detail in a digital scan.

It seems like one could just shoot film and make darkroom prints and accomplish the same thing?

SCOTUS has life-long appointments because it is designed to move and operate slowly and be the least political of the branches. Parties that try to legislate from the bench when they cannot successfully get something through Congress are the issue.

If you want to make a new internet and take all the trash that is on the current one with you to the new one, please do! It will make the current one much more tolerable for the rest of us.

Humanity is not an infection. And how many of those millions of planets can you name?

Jesus taught Paul everything he knew about Christianity, by the way.

Most people don't hate trans people, they just think they believe things that do not correspond to biological reality; ie. they have an illness that is negatively affecting their mind and they need compassion and help. Those same people want to minimize social exposure to provably contagious, harmful, and absurd ideas like gender fluidity.

Assuming the hue and saturation components stay the same, changes in lightness would result in various shades of the same “color”. I think. Maybe. The problem is that in real life changes in lightness result in changes in saturation as well, so things get wonky.

Yeah bought some Ultramax 400 last week. Two rolls….$25. Yikes. Might switch to bulk rolling soonish. Portra 400 is about 16-18/roll at the moment. It’s crazy.

Same. There's a difference in texture, primarily in the trebles, but there's also a general muddiness and lack of separation. Everything feels like it's been smoothed over, but not in a good way, or too "crunchy". Transients don't have the right amount of bite and the stereo image doesn't feel as three-dimensional. It's harder to hear the "room". Currently using Sony IER-M9 with a Linum DualBax Zebra, which is a great cable, btw.

Code output from is Claude pretty good. It seems to hallucinate less than o1 for me. It's been a struggle to get o1 to stop referencing non-existent methods and functions.
