I had it trying to guess the economic status of a snow leopard.

> The image centers on a single snow leopard; there are no humans present. The leopard's expression is alert and slightly wary but not aggressive. It's difficult to definitively determine the leopard's age or exact health from the image, but it appears to be an adult in relatively good physical condition. There are no clear indications of its economic status or lifestyle


Hilarious! The text generator is primed to remark on the subject's economic status. Because that sounds greasy when it analyzes your children. A snow leopard must have a rad lifestyle too.


Yeah that revealed a lot about what the base prompt might be. Fun fact it wasn't just any snow leopard, its the wallpaper from the OSX version of the same name... absolutely zero comment from the model about that fact


The economic status thing is interesting. I can’t help but wonder if there’s bias there.

I uploaded a picture of me and a friend. I am Caucasian, he is of African descent. It said that my attire indicated I was of a higher socio-economic status than him. I was wearing a black t-shirt with a worn print. He was wearing a shirt and sports jacket.


Did it get it right? Giving it the benefit of the doubt, it's possible that the particular shirt / jacket combo is cheap? Just reaching here, instead of plumping for the obvious.


I’d say we are about the same. He looked like he’d come out of a business meeting. I had even joked with him about being overdressed for walking around Parc Guell.


I'm working on a (free) REST client (just a hobby, won't be a big and professional cloud platform like Kong) for those who believe that REST is best enjoyed without clouds looming overhead. This has been brewing since "the incident," and it's starting to take shape. I'd love to hear any feedback on things people like/dislike in existing REST clients, as Good Night's REST aims to offer a dreamy experience (with a sprinkle of jokes to make you snore... I mean, smile!).

Personally, I'm suspicious of Signal because of its publicity, smells like a pot of honey.


The code is open, if you'd like to decide for yourself: https://github.com/signalapp


It is definitely a pot of honey now for intelligence agencies who are going to crack down on it to break it since everyone is moving to it now.


Still protected by the math?

All the three-letter agencies already knew they had these tools available, GPG, veracrypt, Signal, etc.

Now it's just impossible for governments to whole sale eavesdrop on conversations. If they want access it now has to be targetted, and most likely device specific which is harder.


Sure but the math alone won't protect it. I'm thinking more of bugs in the program such as buffer overflows etc. that can potentially be exploited. They don't even have to exist in the Signal code itself but one of the libraries they use. Everything will be scrutinized increasingly heavily now.

Moxie had better preemptively order up some new code reviews.


People are using storyboards for complex UI? I was under the impression that people used the more manual processes with larger teams.


Storyboard references made composing complex UI possible, but IMX there's almost always some breakpoint where it's just less complex to do it with code.


you are right, not sure why you are being downvoted

Almost no large scale app uses storyboards for most of their ui....


I do a mix. The "program by painting" is great for some things and sucks for other things. Unfortunately, programming UIs entirely by text is terse for some things and incredibly laborious/tedious/boilerplate for others (e.g. doing autolayout in code sucks).

So I end up doing both. The problem (and I've seen this for many years with other similar systems), is that you have to become relatively comfortable with both approaches, so you can make informed decisions about when to flip back and forth. When can I do this with IB even though it's a teensy hacky vs when should I just subclass UIView and take over layoutSubviews and friends?

That's been my experience at least. YMMV.


yes, my team have been using Storyboard/xib for 99% Auto Layout declaration, PaintCode for rendering custom components (which can be shown directly inside IB), RxSwift/RxCocoa for MVVM


"That’s right — Medium owns your content. It owns it to the extent that it can copyright it and use it for any purpose that is “reasonably appropriate” to their service"

Dear god that is horrifying, I'm not sure if I stressed it in the article enough but my main goal was actually owning that editable source content because quite frankly I have changed my website time and time again. That said I like Hugo a lot and it meets my balance for simplicity vs control.


Agreed. If I'm looking for comments, the washed out look is easy to pick up. Also. many people don't or can't follow clean code.

Could you imagine the mess if you were writing an API that required JSdoc with the author's proposed highlighting scheme? Or Golang's enforcement of comments on public functions?


Potential violation of the prime directive...


So... anyone know of an open source mail client that is designed around the same philosophy as inbox?
