I feel like “tech bro” is the scapegoat for all bad things in tech these days. It’s fairly dismissive of the ongoing debate and advancement of technology overall IMO

McCullough’s outlet (Nicolas Hulscher writes for the McCullough Foundation) has a track record of overselling single-study preclinical results with breathless framing… and mice are basically clones of one another. Interesting but not a game changer.

Eat more fiber and fermented foods yo

It all depends how many times I need to go to their med spa to get the benefits of the imaging.

I swear this forum needs to embrace their inner child more some days. My four year old loved this.

Well executed fun.

I love it also, but I think the comments are pointing to an unmet need for firewood splitting simulators.

The comments are suggesting that someone could go to town adding different kinds of hatchets, mauls, axes, woods, and different swings, and people would eat it up.

Both can be true. It's cool and fun but simulation is a well defined term.

to be fair this wasn't being shared to a site filled with four year olds

My inner four year old loved this.

Yes, but obviously this toy faces a challenge when folks who take this stuff seriously walk by. I immediately want a bungee to put around it so the wood doesn't go everywhere. I also want to split it finer than in quarters. Had to nope out.

I think it might be more that folks who take this stuff seriously face a challenge when someone makes a toy about it.

I believe the toy is indifferent to your inability to enjoy it.

Seems like you know what you want to go build. Can’t wait to see your version on HN soon :)

I have too much actual wood to split but I like where you're head is at.

The ability to tap into on-device foundation models within apps is pretty baller. The rest is banal

I had it fill out all the forms to appeal my property tax value. We created an assessment of what my San Francisco property should be worth using deep research. The city agreed and a $12k check arrived shortly after.

Same. I focus on the part that matters. As someone with ADHD I feel like AI is a salve for my mind. I used to listen to intense EDM while working. Now I sit in silence and talk to my agents. I maintain inbox zero. I absorb and comment across all relevant projects, even outside my team. I literally feel like I have a support team for the first time.

This is me. I found AI to be an incredible provider of structure, focus and productivity, its an externalized executive function provider. No longer do I forget what last week's meetings were about, no longer am I paralyzed by seemingly I surmountable tasks it all just flows, and I get to rubber duck against an endlessly patient system. I love it, and I'm somewhat bewildered by some of the takes in this thread. Different strokes for different folks, I suppose.

What's your setup for using voice with the agents and for handling your inbox zero? OpenClaw?

OpenClaw and whisper for talking (I use an opensource tool called ghostpepper)
