Fable is very good by Robin Sloan

I mean, this is lit­er­ally the core muscle of any/every lan­guage model: “I need to quickly and accu­rately under­stand what kind of doc­u­ment I am inside.” Yet the sen­si­tivity of that orienteering, the sub­tlety of it, has gotten so much better.

This is something I’ve noticed too. In fact using Fable has made me close a bunch of things - redesigning the home page, adding a UI to create micro posts (including uploading images to the R2 bucket and posting those to socials).

It is very good at understanding the code base.

Here’s a follow up test of something else I had made recently - paneer tava bhuna masala and some paratha to go with it.

The text approach works. The other thing I need to test is the image upload functionality. So here it is - a spinach past I had made.

I (Claude) implemented a new way to add micro posts to my site. This is a test.

I reluctantly upgraded to a 2 TB family plan within the last year or so. We don’t store many files in iCloud, messages are set to auto-delete after a year, and I manually offload photos older than a year (except for hearted favorites). It’s hard to believe given how I remember the original 5 GB free tier once being sufficient, but staying under 200 GB became untenable without a lot of extra work. It doesn’t help that Live Photos sometimes gets inadvertently turned on, so that we’re storing all these little videos without realizing it.

I use a 2TB plan too. I recently enabled the setting to delete messages older than 1 year. I do however use iCloud as a backup service as well - and yes, I know it’s a sync service and not a backup service.

My photos use the most space on iCloud though. That’s why I’m highlighting this, perhaps as a reminder to myself to implement a system such as this - to remove non-favourited older photos. I would need to do this at some point. Also I’m not in the habit of favouriting things right now. So maybe I need to start doing that. I do love the featured photos feature and just the thought of deleting pictures is giving me the ick.
