I’m a big fan of EleutherAI open source efforts, and I’m waiting to see what they will release in the future. In the meanwhile, I really want to try this #AI model from @AI21Labs:

To build something exceptional, something you are really proud of, you have to dedicate 100% of your attention to it. You have to think about every detail day and night.

You can dedicate 20% to it, but you have to set the expectation that it will never be more than passable.

The reason why I bought 3 Echo devices early on and then stopped using them years ago is exactly this. Alexa never went beyond Hart’s practical features and still today it is little more than a glorified alarm. I wish @JeffBezos had his way, pushing the entire industry forward. https://t.co/ovtNlZBaFs

I just discovered that, on top of command autocomplete, @Fig also shows the list of available packages you can install with popular package managers. Exceptional.

(notice the auto-update, too, in the background) https://t.co/nINT5653It

I used @Mailchimp in the past and I always found it unnecessarily convoluted. Years later, I’m trying to set up a simple RSS > Email automation as I used to have in the past. The complexity is staggering. I give up.

Anybody can suggest an alternative?

But now I’ve seen this on the @readwiseio Reader landing page…

If web highlighting will be a first-class citizen, so I can actually use it everywhere, I’ll definitely consider it. https://t.co/ErmwC7lI4I

Yet, even if I could moved from Pocket to @readwisei, I’d still (desperately) need @hypothes_is. Highlighting *after* saving content would be too much friction.

As I said many times, I’m a huge fan of @readwiseio (and a paying customer). It will be interesting to see if and how they build a better Pocket (which I cannot abandon because of ubiquitous integration) >

@jordibruin I meant finding the Instagram of the restaurant so to identify the pictures of three dishes. Many restaurants do that today (at least here in London). But it’s not trivial and much depends on properly assigned hashtags and descriptions.

Oftentimes, business wise, we fail not for the reasons we think we failed.

We don’t know because we don’t listen enough and our listening is biased.

We don’t know because we don’t measure enough and our decision-making process is noisy.
