Why do some people with constipation feel better after fiber is REDUCED or even eliminated???
Are scientists lying about fiber? Did we get it all wrong?

I'll probably regret sharing this too early, but here goes: Second LLM quick build experiment project: "Multitrack Song Recorder".
Create a song, share the link with friends, and anyone with the link can record a new track to add to the song.

I caved and paid for Cursor, using with Claude right now. So far it has helped me quickly ideate two side project ideas, reducing turnaround time from weeks to days.

I made my first ever LLM app! It asks two arguing people to each enter their side of the story, and it generates a witty back-and-forth script in the style of the West Wing. Each person reads their lines aloud, and the script ends in resolution of the issue. It turned out terribly!

On a holiday flight back to SF, about 2 hours before landing, they announced that all of the toilets on the plane would no longer flush due to a “sensor error,” and if you needed to go, contract a flight attendant and they would “assist you.”
