Hello HN,
I wanted to see what it takes to make GPT3 model into production (== having consistently good automated results,
rather than cherry-picking best completions). Horoscopes seemed like a simple usecase, where it is a good validation to see that AI can generate human-level texts (BS).
NoteFinder is an ear training app, where the exercise is to guess a tone from various scales.
The inspiration for this has been a similarly named exercise in Yousician app, where I thought that the exercise is some fun, but with very little features / variability. Moreover, I could not find any other app that would do something similar and have the features I like (onscreen piano keyboard, variability in scales & keys, nice statistics), so I decided to build it myself.
I am submitting to ShowHN to check whether it is fun / useful for others as well, so any feedback is greatly welcome.
My conclusion is that some effects are very real, according to best available science. But You have to filter that from Wim Hof's persona & explanation style, which to me often feels very hand-wavy & daresay sometimes even esoteric & his explanations/rationalisations are sometimes clearly off. (e.g. he often says that the breathwork/hyperventilation increases amount of oxygen delivered to cells, while in reality it is the opposite due to Bohr effect). But he imo definitely is onto something with the practice.
Imo highly individual. In my practice, I've observed inflammation in my heel decrease in scale of a few weeks (my heel used to be inflamed after every run for a few days, with me unable to recover from 2 weekly runs of ~ 6km; after 2-3 week started to improve, now - 2 mo later - it is completely healed, can run 4-5 times a week, and bottleneck is now something else). The second effect I observe is my decreased fear of cold shower & improved ability to handle it (both psychologically and physically).
Sound intriguing to try out. I have plantar fasciitis most mornings also a diet change helped me a lot reduce the pain. Did you make any other changes apart from the breathing exercises?
According to zipline website [0], there will be 4 stations, Mwanza, Geita, Mbeya and Dodoma. Looking on maps, Geita and Mwanza are really close to each other, moreover looks like at least third of potentially covered land around Mwanza is water. Wonder what is the reason behind this.
The usecase is basically quick & bullshit-free sharing of text stuff/links/notes, also realtime, lockable & with fixed url.
Personally, I use it to have my own public scratchboard, to share links w friends.
