I saw a thing about HDR on websites, so I recreated the first UNC sociology page with better colors. Warning: it produces nausea after about ten seconds. claude.site/artifacts/63...

Can't play with it yet, but OpenAI's Canvas might be what helps writing with an LLM catch up to coding with an LLM. Human supplies the raw material and then acts like Reviewer 2, requesting edits until satisfied. openai.com/index/introd...

Canvas is a new way to write and code with ChatGPT.

Hacks to the NotebookLM podcast genre seem real hit-or-miss, even using the same prompt. My best so far, both using Wouters 2019: Using sailing metaphors: notebooklm.google.com/notebook/619...notebooklm.google.com/notebook/497...

Where do I put on my CV that when I asked an LLM for a list of sample citations, it hallucinated about *me*?

The inevitable AIG podcast version: "It's like taking what sociologists have always done and giving it a turbo boost!" www.dropbox.com/scl/fi/cn4x4...

Jupyter notebook #lifehack. Use IPython.display.Markdown() instead of print() to avoid horizontal scrolling.

This image demonstrates the difference between using print() and IPython.display.Markdown() (imported as md) for displaying long strings in a Jupyter notebook.
The image shows three code cells:

The first cell defines a long_string variable containing information about the GPT-4o mini model.
The second cell uses print(long_string) to display the text. The output is cut off due to horizontal space limitations, requiring sideways scrolling to read the full content.
The third cell imports Markdown from IPython.display as md, then uses md(long_string) to display the same text. The output is formatted as Markdown, which allows the text to wrap and be displayed in full without requiring horizontal scrolling.

This map of football rivalries posted at r/cfbmemes might be the greatest American network graph ever.

Google's NotebookLM is great, but I don't need another folder with names like my Jupyter notebooks.
