If you're into flipbooks, check-out these 6-in-one marvels. I got the Apollo 11 collection and love it: https://flipboku.com/


holy cow that felt like magic. I'm not into flipbooks and I think I'm going to buy one just for the wow moment I just had, thank you.


You should check out Librechat. You can connect different models to it and, instead of paying for both subscriptions, just buy credits for each API.


> just buy credits for each API

I’ve always considered doing that but do you come out ahead cost wise?


I've been using Claude 3.5 over API for about 4 months on $100 of credit. I use it fairly extensively, on mobile and my laptop, and I expected to run out of credit ages ago. However, I am careful to keep chats fairly short as it's long chats that eat up the credit.

So I'd say it depends. For my use case it's about even but the API provides better functionality.


How does the cost compare?


It doesn't need to be completely burned to be gone:

"No redemption will be made when (...) Fragments and remnants presented which represent 50% or less of a note are identifiable as United States currency but the method of destruction and supporting evidence do not satisfy the Treasury that the missing portion has been totally destroyed"

Not that unlikely, in my opinion.


I guess they probably meant moon position in orbit, in general


I've been using ChatGPT4 for this situtations, with excellent results. Check out this conversation about it (I used a PDF reader plugin, also): https://chat.openai.com/share/a682c5a7-f2c5-4849-a999-5a7218...


I disagree. Judaism is not an ethnic group, it's many absolutely different and disjunct ethnic groups, that only have religion in common. A Jew from Yemen has nothing else in common with a Jew from Poland. Different language, different food,. different music, different physical resemblance, different interpretation of the Torah, etc.

I recommend reading The Invention of the Jewish People, by Shlomo Sand.

As a practical example. When my father (Ashkenazi) married my mother (Sephardic), my father's grandma was devastated, because he was marrying a non-jew.


Not a great example. In the orthodox community it is very common to intermarry between religious Sephardi and Ashkenazi jews.

> A Jew from Yemen has nothing else in common with a Jew from Poland

1) They descended from the same people 2) If they are religious, they have a tremendous amount in common


> A Jew from Yemen has nothing else in common with a Jew from Poland

Except for the genetics we share, distinct from non-Jews, statistically significantly.

I recommend reading "Legacy: A Genetic History of the Jewish People" by Harry Ostrer.

We really are the people of the book, aren't we?


"such biases"


You oversaw the untrusted part, this is the only reason I prefer web over native really. If there was a way to run native apps with that level of isolation, I would prefer native.


Snap, Flatpack, iOS sandbox, Android sandbox, UWP/Windows sandbox,...


Unfortunately, none of those are cross-platform... Closest we get to something similar to the web is either the JVM or APE (Actually Portable Executable) but then those are generally not as isolated as the alternatives you mentioned, sadly.


Or CLR, or now the fashionable WebAssembly.

Plus, plenty of languages have cross-platform runtimes and libraries, so not a big issue, not everything needs to be JavaScript.


Could you please give an example of a word where th is hispanized as z?


The phoneme 'th' does not exist in Spanish. So, we tend to mispronounce it. Many of us, at least for the native European Spanish speakers, pronounce a Spanish 'z' instead of 'th'.

By the way, the spanish phoneme 'z' is pronounced differently to the english phoneme 'z'.


Just to be more precise:

We can do that in "think" or "thanks". But not in "they". In the latter case we tend to mispronounce it as a Spanish phoneme 'd'.


Actually the sound /ð/ exists in Spanish, but it is an allophone of /d/. For example, the word dedo is pronounced as /'deðo/. That means that for a native Spanish speaker it is very difficult to learn to separate both sounds.

Taken from Wikipedia https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spanish_phonology#Consonants

"The phonemes /b/, /d/, and /ɡ/ are realized as approximants (namely [β̞, ð̞, ɣ˕], hereafter represented without the downtacks) or fricatives[6] in all places except after a pause, after a nasal consonant, or—in the case of /d/—after a lateral consonant; in such contexts they are realized as voiced stops.[7] (In one region of Spain, the area around Madrid, word-final /d/ is sometimes pronounced [θ] especially in a colloquial pronunciation of its name, Madriz ([maˈðɾiθ]).[8]) "


It's more obvious with "dado".

And, if the case of participles, we just nearly butcher the in-between 'd' in -ado as -ao, simillarly to the Southern speakers from the US on lots of words.


Good point. Hispanized is not the correct term here.

What I meant is that the closest sound to "th" in Spanish would be "z" or "d" instead of "t", as other replies have pointed out.


You can definitely run a Cloud VM with GPU and pay by the second. I've used Google Cloud for this and it works very well
