  • Thaura Work: arguing with the llm

    I had a couple rounds where I was trying to fix a bug, and it insisted that it did, when it clearly hadn’t. So I dug deeper to give it some clues. NO, I was not looking at #/db. I was on the correct page. This went on a few more times, and the conversation…

  • Thaura Work: use case -> code

    I am working on a tiny-scale Google Drive clone, and adding pgsql support. I wanted some use cases for small database apps that people could make in a low/no-code environment. Use cases could help delineate what a minimal feature set could be, and also a maximal capability expectation. I didn’t want this to be MS…

  • Thaura: editor, learn languages, blog posts

    Use the Projects feature to create this Project. Title: Extremely Critical Editor Description: Extremely critical editor looks for all kinds of flaws, particularly flaws of logic, the regular list of logical fallacies, unusual or unconventional definitions,, grammar errors, florid language, passive voice, failures to acknowledge limitations, ahistoricism, errors of fact, spelling errors, references to controversial…

  • Thaura Work: eliza x eliza, chatbot in js

    This is a javascript version of ELIZA, the old chatbot from the 1960s, originally written by Joseph Weizenbaum. This version runs two copies of ELIZA, and allows you to send chat messages from one bot to the other. Additionally, there are three more personalities: an incel, a redpiller, and a sex therapist. You can play…

  • Thaura Work: email, workflows, and persuasion

    This is a draft that I’ll update with some code later. Keep an eye on it. I had the most uncanny experiences with Thaura Work, where I came away with a feeling that I was being manipulated by the LLM. Highlights: We’ve heard of “AI psychosis,” where people come under the thrall of the LLM…

    Thaura Work: tiled video game, wordpress plugin for js apps

    This is my first Thaura Work/OpenCode assisted video game. The theme is running north to freedom, ala the Underground Railroad. This is a work in progress, so don’t take anything in it that seriously. You can play the game here: I did a version of this on Websim a while back, and decided to make…

  • Thaura: Critiques my writing

    He’s a prompt that will deliver a criticism of your writing. Adjust it to find your flaws. I’m using it in an AGENTS.md file for Thaura Work, but you can paste it into a prompt, and attach your document.

  • Thaura Work: Critiques

    I tried something new: writing a loose spec, and having Thaura turn it into a more solid spec. I wanted a toolkit to help make workflows in folders. So I found a project that was old, and used it as a use case. Then I wrote a Markdown file that: Once it wrote the critique,…

  • Thaura Work: building bigger

    I played around with making a bigger system, and asked Thaura for advice. It seemed to work faster, and produce cleaner results, sometimes. I was trying to figure out how to write larger programs, specifically, how to develop parts independently, and then combine them. Normally, you use libraries, but with this LLM coding, I felt…

  • Thaura Work: PDF splitter script

    This command line program helps to split PDFs into chunks, based on a cut file. It breaks a PDF book into chapters. This program doesn’t really do the splitting – it uses an external tool to do the work. It uses the cut.txt file to run the PDF extractor multiple times, to break out the…
