jeremycherfasHow are people following Twitter in a reader these days? I still find value in Twitter, but not being able to save my place when I leave is driving me nuts.
plantroon, geoffo, IWSlackGateway1, [snarfed], btrem, mro and [tantek] joined the channel
[tantek]new authoring brainstorm, when you're going to post a quote post, search Twitter (and elsewhere) to see if someone said the same or similar thing previously. so many things are stolen
[tantek][chrisbergr] indeed this was specifically for short bits of text like pithy quotes or sayings on Twitter. Nearly every time I've seen one and though hah I should quote that I've had to check it myself and stop before I quoted a copy
[chrisbergr]But I know your problem very well. Most of the great lines I see throughout the day are stolen from somewhere. Entire business models are built on them; "Made my day" is just the best-known one.
[snarfed]StackOverflow and Discourse (and probably others) have a good UX for us, they search existing questions/posts as you type and show you similar ones
[chrisbergr]Oh, the new interface for posting a question on SO ist great, and the noticed last box "Review questions already on Stack Overflow to see if your question is a duplicate." does a great job!
[tantek]I would like to see that as a method of clustering in search results too. Show the *oldest* tweet but at the date-ordering of the newest version with something like "147 people tweeted this, first posted by author-name"
[KevinMarks]That is a very good use for LLM embeddings. Similarly when you have a lot of replies (too many to read) clustering them for meaning using the LLM too
