I direct a plan, then break it into phases, and each phase into sections with tasks and sub-tasks. The plan outlines all phases, but only write tasks one phase at a time, since things change. #opinionnotesfollow That's how I've been working with #ainotesfollow for the past few months to a year. It has been amazingly consistently high quality. just-get-it-done is for the rough sketch or proof of concepts (I do those too and a lot of them) but never for a quality product. #opinionnotesfollow

Today I had a long meeting of many hours, one of those where passive listening is enough for most of the time. I took advantage of the time to implement a two-way synchronization between my calendar and my markdown note system (Emacs Howm). I made the plan with Argon (I have few tokens per day with the subscription I have), with my feedback, and then Gemini Flash implemented it almost on the first try.

De retruc, ara el meu chatbot personal ja tรฉ accรฉs a la meva agenda (no nomรฉs a les meves tasques).

In return, my personal chatbot now has access to my schedule (not just my tasks). I have slightly modified the prompt sent to it by the systemd service that runs it, with the idea of making it more aware of this fact. I have also modified the morning briefing that the chatbot sends me. This briefing contains an analysis of the tasks I have during the day. It will now take into account tasks and schedule, thus helping me to prioritize better.

Crec que aixรฒ m'ajudarร , perquรจ el chatbot no nomรฉs รฉs conscient de les tasques i esdeveniments que tinc, tambรฉ tรฉ accรฉs al seu context (totes les notes), inclรฒs el context personal (el meu diari) aixรญ tรฉ en compte el meu estat emocional.

I si no els planifico millor, almenys delegar moltes de les menudes decisions del dia a dia al chatbot per aixรญ preservar energia per a d'altres decisions.
I think this will help me, because the chatbot is not only aware of the tasks and events I have, it also has access to their context (all the notes), including the personal context (my diary) so it takes into account my emotional state. So, the idea is to plan my days better. And if I don't plan them better, at least delegate many of the small day-to-day decisions to the chatbot so that I can preserve energy for other decisions.

Suposo que el segรผent pas per millorar el meu chatbot รฉs donar-li permรญs de lectura, i nomรฉs lectura, al correu electrรฒnic. Mรฉs que res per aquells perรญodes en els que s'acumula correu i vols que algรบ rร pidament et digui si hi ha quelcom rellevant sota la paperassa. Un LLM que tรฉ accรฉs al context de la teva feina, tasques i notes, hauria de tenir certa capacitat per saber si un e-mail รฉs rellevant o no. Perรฒ aquestes sรณn figues d'un altre paner i les deixarem per un altre dia.
I guess the next step to improve my chatbot is to give it read permission, and only read permission, to email. Especially for those periods when email is piling up and you want someone to quickly tell you if there's anything relevant under the paperwork. An LLM that has access to the context of your work, tasks, and notes should have some ability to tell if an email is relevant or not. But those are figs from another basket and we'll leave them for another day.

Finally watched Project Hail Mary. Easily one of my top 5 favourite films but itโ€™s still not nearly as good as the book โ€” I feel like the cut some pretty important scenes
@avioliprofilefollowProgrammer by day and night. Lover of art. Mixing art and programming is the dream.replied to@lemonthymeshortbreadprofilefollowI carved wooden spoons and my favourite herb is lemon thyme.:
I loved the book and Iโ€™m always fearful when a movie script is developed and a movie produced, so my relief after I saw the movie was immense. I too feel theyโ€™ve cut-out some bits, but the main thing that a book almost always takes my breath away with is fueling my imagination. A movie would (possibly) never nail that aspect.
@sicilicaprofilefollowreplied to@lemonthymeshortbreadprofilefollowI carved wooden spoons and my favourite herb is lemon thyme.:
I just watched it as well. It was fun. There were a number of things that I felt weren't explained well and broke my suspension of disbelief; I haven't read the book, but I found myself really curious whether the book takes the time to justify things more. Obviously, the movie has a lot of pressure to rush to the next "big moment".

If thereโ€™s one thing Andy Weir canโ€™t be critiqued on then itโ€™s not fully justifying all of the science. I think the film on the other hand can be hard to follow for someone who has neither read the book nor has a scientific background. Itโ€™s just hard to monologue about gravitational forces and relativistic speeds on screen.
