Just updated my app for correcting texts using AI to use the new GPT-4o. I’m excited to see if it makes a difference in real world use!

@passim Yup! It’s documented here: https://platform.openai.com/docs/models/gpt-4o

I really should release this app someday. I use it many times each day, especially after it got Shortcuts integration. I just can't be bothered to think about the pricing model 😑

Screen recording showing the Shortcuts action of my app being invoked from Ivory. The action corrects the text and displays an image with a diff of the original and the corrected text.

@passim Yeah, I don’t really get that either. I don’t think it matters for my use case though. I’m primarily concerned with speed and cost.

@samburkhard Theoretically, yes, but I’ve built a tiny backend so I can tweak the corrections without shipping an app update.

@jakob41 Funny idea to make it a keyboard! I haven’t build one of those in years so I’m unsure how it would work. Can keyboard extensions see the user’s selected text?

Sorry for all the espresso posts lately! To those here for the coding, Swift, and Apple posts — I pinky-promise more are coming soon 😄

Got a new gadget for my espresso corner today: a Knock Drawer! 😃

I hoped to get by without a knock box to save precious counter space and just knock directly into the bin, but that was (obviously) leaving marks on our plastic bin 😑

I was very happy to find the Knock Drawer, which sits under the grinder and matches both the grinder and espresso machine very well 🙌 https://theknockdrawerco.com/products/grounds-cub

Much to my regret, I have watched the Unfrosted movie 💩

Once again, Git bisect saves my bacon 🙌

I wish the Fork app was smart enough to display the result of Git bisect in a more elegant way than as an error, though.

First time making an iced latte and decided to add a few pumps of salted caramel syrup. As you can probably tell from all my recent posts, I’m very much enjoying making espresso-based drinks 😄

And with that, I’m refueled to resume working on Runestone for macOS 😀

@jakob41 I already am but the camera does a horrible job capturing the screen in this bright sunlight 😊

@jayelevy Of course! Wouldn’t miss it!

@passim Yes, Denmark.

When it’s hot outside and you’ve got an espresso machine then there’s only one thing to do: make affogato! 🍨☕️😋

@pax0707 Delicious! Still affogato, right? It looks like an affogato with more ice cream to me.

@brunodelgado Hope you found a nearby place because it's delicious! 😃

@norro I’m watching a cycling race and I can read the screen perfectly fine. The Vivid app does wonders in bright sun like this.

@ctietze Kind of, yes. It’s a traditional Danish dish called “koldskål” which literally translates to “cold bowl”. It’s a mix of milk, yoghurt, sugar, egg, and vanilla. You then top it with cookies made solely for this dish. They’re incredibly plain but very sweet cookies.

The new iPad Pro is both thinner and lighter than the new iPad Air.
