Tag: Thaura
Thaura.ai is a pro-Palestine, pro-privacy LLM. This means it is trying to remove the pro-Israel lean that is allegedly present on other LLMs, and is definitely present in the US news sources. They don’t collect your data. They also use smaller, less energy intensive models. The feature set is smaller.

Thaura Work: a couple wordpress shortcodes
Read this: https://rosemeadtu.org/z_archive/wordpress-shortcodes-calcode-and-calbill/ OK, I wasn’t that happy with these shortcodes, and now I know why. Citations need to be consistent, within reason. The code handles weird edge cases that could be considered bad or quirky citations. (The worst part is, it doesn’t gain you that much more laxity, and it didn’t make code I…

Thaura Work: time clock using .zsh_history
A command line tool that uses the command history to implement a “punch clock” to record time worked. I use three kinds of timesheets – paper, Toggl, and shell history. I’ve always used a combination of tools, because, for example, I forget to click the “off” button on Toggle. Preparing accurate timesheets is sometimes a…

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 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,…
