Hi @mkennedy.codes - I'm listening to TalkPython 526 with Hugo and you both just mentioned MacWhisper and Wispr for dictation. Have you heard of Monologue? monologue.to

It's by the folks at Every and it's incredible. You can use a local model if you want and
Monologue | Effortless voice dictation so you can work 3x faster
Write 3x faster with Al voice dictation that gets your intent right. Say it once, see it written as you meant.

I know a bunch of you have Substacks and while I support you with all my heart, we've known for a while that these guys are right wing dipshits.

If you're looking for a non-fash alternative, Ghost is a non-profit and even has a cool horror sounding name! And its not run by right wing dipshits!

Me abrí un canal personal para hablar de programación:

Este año planeo escribir más código y hacer más contenido, así que tendré este espacio para charlar de cosas que me interesen.

Dense una vuelta para ver el primer vídeo sobre qué realmente pasó con la IA para programación.
2 años de IA en programación, ¿qué pasó realmente?

los gringos liberales son muy de apendejar a los republicanos y creen que se van a dar cuenta que sus propias politicas no son sustentables o no funcionan pero 1) les funcionan a quienes estan a cargo 2) los que pagan el precio en lo que "aprenden" somos nosotros y 3) les vale madre

remember que meta was doubling down on the metaverse wasting a ton of money and then they realized ai was a thing and they stole a bunch of data and misused their own users data but released the llms as open source so everyone was like 🤔👀

anyways

Manning is the only publication I've bought books from that does the one thing I've always wanted from any publication: give me the ebook if I'm buying the print version.

all i want is to give the author some money for their work and be able to read the book however i want.

One place where LLMs are useful: generating commit messages, given that:

1. You understand and can evaluate the message
2. The scoped code change is small
3. Your model is fast enough

Still playing around but this script+ prompt works fairly well out of the box:

gist.github.com/veekaybee/db...
commit_script.sh
GitHub Gist: instantly share code, notes, and snippets.

The csv mod has a sniffer, just used it like this:

>>> with open('cc1.csv', 'r') as f:
... sniffer = csv.Sniffer()
... sniffer.has_header(f.read(2048))
...
False
>>> with open('cc2.csv', 'r') as f:
... sniffer = csv.Sniffer()
... sniffer.has_header(f.read(2048))
...
True
