• Enjoying the updates to “Projects” in ChatGPT. Whilst you can add instructions to your projects (shared context/prompts for any chat in the project) in the app and web, you have to use the web version to add FILES. The files then show up in the app, but only as a reference/not editable. Very straightforward way of creating your own “custom GPT” locally without all the plumbing. Great use case for general users, but can’t imagine we’ll see function calling in Projects soon due to the technical barriers. Surely some tool use at some point. You can change the colour of the project folder icons which is….nice but limited

• Finding some Copilot suggestions quite stressful these days. It seems to be getting faster and “better” so you’re a few tabs away from generating 10 lines of completely irrelevant code. Should explore ways of limiting prediction to a single line

• Related, introducing annoying failures due to completions. A commonly used Hash is sometimes inverted for access, sometimes not. Copilot has no idea (partly because the Ruby has no typing?) so shooting myself in the foot

• It’s mid 2025 and many websites with image uploads STILL DO NOT SUPPORT HEIC. Main offenders are those requiring copies of ID where you…take a photo with an iPhone. I think the world would be a better place without HEIC (along with many things), but no excuse for not accepting these files now.

  It’s tempting to convert to the biggest PNG possible…

• Waiting for a TRMNL to arrive. Signed up for developer edition, but not clear if that unlocks “bring your own device” support to put this on old Kindles. Shipment got to Stansted airport very quickly, now sat for 5 days and counting awaiting…something. Can’t blame brexit for this one
