Hyde VS chatgpt-shell

A few of them.

1. https://github.com/hamon-in/invoice/ was a command line invoicing program that I wrote and used for 2 years before moving to something SasS based.

2. https://github.com/nibrahim/Calligraphic-Rulings is a command line (and later web based - http://calligraffiti.in/rulings) tool I wrote and use regularly while to practise calligraphy

3. https://github.com/nibrahim/Hyde And emacs mode to manage Jekyll/Octopress blogs which I use for my personal site

A bunch of smaller scripts for daily work (e.g. mini pomodoro timer, Emacs scripts to manage client conversations etc.)

I used to run this on wordpress when it was first released. Built a few terrible looking themes for it too. This was a redesign from that time. It was doing using the YUI toolkit. Phones were not a thing then so I didn't consider that. Many of the ideas were taken from snippets of CSS Zen Garden. It's generated using Jekyll and has disqus for comments. I wrote an emacs mode https://github.com/nibrahim/Hyde to manage the blog. Much of the content is outdated. I don't actively blog anymore.

This is hosted on a shared hosting service called hcoop which I got onto in 2001 or so and have been on ever since. The domains were registered on an Indian registrar (net4) which went under and I migrated them to namecheap a month or two ago.

I think it is a tooling issue. It is in no way obvious how use LLM's effectively, especially for really good writing results. Tweaking and tinkering can be time consuming indeed, but i use lately the chatgpt-shell [1] and it lends well to an iterative approach. One needs to cycle through some styles first, and then decide how to most effectively prompt for better results.

- https://xenodium.com/an-ios-journaling-app-powered-by-org-pl... - Lately, I'm having a go at building a privacy-focused plain-text-based iOS journaling app. I starte building it for someone important in my life but now using it myself.

- https://flathabits.com - After reading Atomic Habits, I wanted a habit tracker but most had more friction than I wanted, required accounts, had distractions, lock-in etc. so I built a privacy-focused app, with little friction and no-lockin (saves to plain text).

- https://plainorg.com - There are a gazillion markdown apps on the App Store, but hardly any supporting org markup, so I built one.

- https://xenodium.com/scratch-a-minimal-scratch-area - I wanted a surface where I could just dump text with as few taps as possible.

- https://github.com/xenodium/macosrec - I wanted to take either screenshots or videos of macOS apps from the command line, so I could integrate anywhere.

- https://github.com/xenodium/chatgpt-shell - I'm far down the Emacs rabbit hole, so I prefer Emacs-integrated tools. Built a ChatGPT Emacs shell to see what the hype was all about ;) tl;dr it really does help.

- https://github.com/xenodium/dwim-shell-command - A way to manage and easily apply the gazillion one-liners (and more complex scripts) I've come across. I got close to 100 utils check-in now https://github.com/xenodium/dwim-shell-command#my-toolbox

- https://github.com/xenodium/ob-swiftui - Play around with SwiftUI layouts from the comfort of my preferd editor.

- https://github.com/xenodium/company-org-block - Org block completion.

- https://xenodium.com - I tend to scratch own itches and post my solutions here.

Every so often I scratch an itch to improve my workflow and write it up https://xenodium.com.

With lsp, the gap between IDEs vs text editors is narrowing. While I still prefer Emacs, I’m pragmatic enough to jump on to whatever tool does a better job for a specific task. At times, that is Xcode.

Was also sceptical about ChatGPT and changed my mind like OP. I was less pragmatic on this one and brought ChatGPT over to Emacs https://github.com/xenodium/chatgpt-shell. Pretty happy with the result so far.

There are a handful of chatgpt Emacs packages. I happen to have authored chatgpt-shell. For making a synchronous request, can use chatgpt-shell-post-prompt. For async, use chatgpt-shell-send-to-buffer with a handler.

https://xenodium.com will hit 10 years in November. It started as a single org file for personal notes (programming, cooking, Emacs, bookmarks, iOS dev, travel). One day, I decided to export it to HTML and make it accessible to me from anywhere. Sorta just became both notes and blog over time…

While the tone of the posts may have evolved a bit, the blog still serves as personal notes/reference of sorts. The tech behind it hasn’t changed a whole lot. It remains a single org file (https://raw.githubusercontent.com/xenodium/xenodium.github.i...) with my own ugly elisp hacks, but hey does the job ;-)

u/xenodium's chatgpt-shell deserves a mention. It uses an intuitive Comint-shell based interaction and includes support for executable code blocks (in the comint-shell) and for org-babel. It's very polished -- I believe it also includes support for saving and restoring sessions, which gptel is yet to add.

Yep. Turn some of them into posts https://xenodium.com

For certain concepts that I don't understand fully, I'm using chatgpt-shell. It is beyond fantastic and almost impossible to describe in a single post. This is, for example, just one of my use cases: When I'm writing a comment or a message to my colleague (and of course, yes, I edit just about any text in Emacs), I can select a paragraph and ask chatgpt-shell to improve it. It does, but it also shows me the diff of the changes, that is how I set it up.
