Good to hear about. I vaguely hearing about this recently, perhaps in a recent newsletter from writer Julian Simpson.
I know there have been hacky workarounds like this Workflowy calendar generator t...

LLMs definitely aren’t perfect and can make confident mistakes, but they’re still useful tools for brainstorming and exploration as long as you double-check the results and keep their limi...

This morning I got an email from Mark Bernstein noting that Tinderbox will now not only work with major AI models but the app will offer workspace to AI models to take notes for itself.

Check out StackSocial, HumbleBundle, appSumo, BitsDuJour... I'm sure there are others.

I remember being distrustful of that $120 lifetime deal.
My previous subscription (a $9.99 one-year StackSocial offer) expired in spring 2023. Since then, the only new features locked to me are:
