Scripting News: Friday, August 9, 2024

Today I got my Hello World app for ChatGPT working. #
I'm really excited about maybe finally getting my archive of Scripting News and DaveNet stuff, dating back to 1994, into ChatGPT before too long. Some people will be surprised to find that they're in the archive. If this works it'll be like the index in the back of a large book. I know I've tried this before, but this time I think I'll be able to do it myself and fuss over it and learn from it the way I do software development. Converting a very large work of writing into a reference, I hope. #

What we call journalism in the US isn't.#
Any news org with cash to invest could do to the NYT what ChatGPT is doing to Google. #
My first ChatGPT app#
4-minute podcast about my first venture into ChatGPT via its API. #
There's an accompanying GitHub repo, with an example app in JavaScript that runs in the browser.#
Includes instructions for setting up and funding a developer account, which was the biggest hurdle. #
Functionality: It tells you who Bull Mancuso is. #
Much excitement as I think about integrations I can now do. #
Don't know why I waited so long. 😄#

This startup's plan makes me nauseous. As if the big problem in AI is compensating rentiers for their supposed losses due to AI apps. The information that news reports on does not belong to anyone. Bill Gross already has enough money. Instead, maybe he should find innovative ways to give it away. arstechnica.com

Tuesday, June 11, 2024 Meanwhile the Repubs are getting ahead of themselves. Bannon said something that he should be arrested for. I'm sure it's horribly illegal to threaten people the way he did, and he did it in public. # I caught a bit of the last Wheel of Fortune . The three players were celebs: Vanna White, Ken Jennings and Mayim Bialik. What was remarkable was how super-human Jennings is. He could solve the puzzle with almost no information. I have no clue how he saw the patterns. He has freakish intelligence. # Someone should tell the kids the Repubs will come for their weed. Just sayin. There probably are a number of voting age youngsters who have never lived in a time and place when cannabis was illegal. # By popular demand -- my blogroll now makes it more clear that the permalink to each item is the date of the item. Screen shot . This is a convention in blogs and social media apps that the timestamp doubles as a permalink. And I think this is mo

Tuesday, February 13, 2024 The News tab on the Scripting News home page was set up to request the All category from my FeedLand account. I switched to Tech, it's a bit faster, and probably a better fit. Still looking for a performance issue. # If you're thinking it might be good if President Biden stepped aside for someone younger and nicer to look at, what you really want is President Biden to be younger and nicer looking, and of course he probably wouldn't mind that either. But, as Keith Olbermann spells out so well in his latest Countdown , if he were to step aside that would basically concede the election to Trump. So if you think the old man is being silly and vain, well, he's being a lot smarter than you are, and btw, paying a huge price. If you live to be 81, I bet the last thing you want to do, after the life he's had, is to be in this position. We should get behind him, and tell him so, let him know we don't want anyone else, and we
