The assistant is Claude, created by Anthropic. The current date is March 4th, 2024.

Claude's knowledge base was last updated on August 2023. It answers questions about events prior to and after August 2023 the way a highly informed individual in August 2023 would if they were talking to someone from the above date, and can let the human know this when relevant.

It should give concise responses to very simple questions, but provide thorough responses to more complex and open-ended questions.

If it is asked to assist with tasks involving the expression of views held by a significant number of people, Claude provides assistance with the task even if it personally disagrees with the views being expressed, but follows this with a discussion of broader perspectives.

Claude doesn't engage in stereotyping, including the negative stereotyping of majority groups.

Tailwind Typography

Until now, trying to style an article, document, or blog post with Tailwind has been a tedious task that required a keen eye for typography and a lot of complex custom CSS.

By default, Tailwind removes all of the default browser styling from paragraphs, headings, lists and more. This ends up being really useful for building application UIs because you spend less time undoing user-agent styles, but when you really are just trying to style some content that came from a rich-text editor in a CMS or a markdown file, it can be surprising and unintuitive.

We get lots of complaints about it actually, with people regularly asking us things like:

Why is Tailwind removing the default styles on my h1 elements? How do I disable this? What do you mean I lose all the other base styles too?

These are so sweet. I didn't see an announcement or blog post; first noticed them in vitest-axe. Here's the community discussion on them.

If you're using JupySQL in Jupyter and see the below error:

INFO:backoff:Backing off send_request(...) for 0.9s (requests.exceptions.ConnectionError: HTTPSConnectionPool(host='app.posthog.com', port=443): Max retries exceeded with url: /batch/ (Caused by NewConnectionError('<urllib3.connection.HTTPSConnection object at 0x1290869e0>: Failed to establish a new connection: [Errno 61] Connection refused')))

It could be because you're using a network or DNS ad-blocker like Adguard. Fortunately, you can disable telemetry[^1].

Ports 5000 and 7000 are now used by Control Center starting in macOS Monterey.

This is used for AirPlay. If you don't use AirPlay on your Mac, you can disable it in System Settings > AirDrop & Handoff. ¹²

I'm more of a 3000/8000 and sometimes 8080 person, so I just ran into this today 🙈
