my gun turret now lip reads and then uses jev to answer questions and it can nod or shake its barrel for yes/no questions
i still much prefer whatsapp over imessage
and i dont think i use a single new feature whatsapp has released in the last 5 years
such a good idea, power the big community of hardware hackers actively playing with esp32's, and add cheap intelligence
🚨 side project alert 🚨
Announcing Muse Gadgets, an open source ESP32 firmware and Linux sdk so that you can make hardware devices that work with Muse.
Grab an API token from gadgets.muse.ai and point your favorite coding agent at the github repo to build your own peripherals for Muse.
i have been hardware pilled for some time (cough cough remote control gun turrets)
but the models are so good these days just ask for a shiny gold toy for your kids, and it will write the code, send the file to your 3d printer and even kick it off at the end

instant global writes just landed on Cloudflare
Workers KV Instant: a write reaches 300+ locations in ~107 ms
regular Workers KV took up to 50 seconds when i timed it today
but look at the write price: 😬
we have this crazy key-value store at Cloudflare called Quicksilver
instantly updates keys across our whole network. microsecond reads from every location. stupid fast
our customers have asked us for years to make it available
we finally did – in a way we think is quite simple - as a new mode for Workers KV
Workers KV Instant
blog.cloudflare.com/workers-…
the math: KV Instant only saves money once a key gets read 333k+ times per write
it also caps you at 1 write per second and 1 MB per namespace
so it's for feature flags and kill switches, not app data
tldr
KV Instant: ~0.1 s to update everywhere, $0.10 a write
Workers KV: up to 50 s, $0.000005 a write
flipping a flag a few times a day? KV Instant
writing on every request? stay on Workers KV or Durable Objects

GPT came closest but still changed my face
Grok raised my arm to hold its sign
Nano Banana dyed the chin straps pink and added crates nobody asked for

Ideogram 4.5 changes what you ask for and leaves the rest alone, $0.22 an edit on fal
