I wonder if GPT would/could make a good base for “port-X-From-ALang-to-BLang” type stuff. It wouldn’t necessarily be idiomatic, but neither are most first stabs at conversions…it just needs to be better than the non-ML stuff that is out there today to be enticing.

I should give it a try first (AFK) but it feels doable for simple dynamic script lang conversions….

there's a lot of nostalgia about different aspects of the 80s; the hair, the synths, the neon, but one of the things I miss the most is the way hollywood was able to create movies where the US military was the antagonist

feel like that's long overdue for a retro comeback

This is a good article, but it misses that we'll be enabling WebGPU in Edge 113 at the same time as Chrome's launch:

I'm writing in the grammar for thirty minutes, and I am already running into little things where I say, "What? I Can't do that? This grammar is terrible!" I had intended to not touch the original code here, but... urge... to fix... grammar... rising.

Generated these two images using #MidJourney and actual photos of my dog for input, some prompts, and selecting some variations to upscale.

Pretty wild how you can create “custom art” with real life subjects now, putting them in situations that never happened; might help owners with deceased pets cope (? Or it might not)
