The photo is too big, so I open it and take a screenshot of it so I can uploaded here.

Anyway, if you look close, you can tell this bird is not properly focused. That's a very common problem with my setup.

First of all, the auto focus from Samsung is absolutely shit. Everytime it focuses on a branch either behind or in front of the bird. It always failed to focus on the bird itself. So I use manual focus. But then the screen is very small, with direct sunlight, I can't tell if the bird is crystal clear or not. I placed an order from fuji to see if it looks better on a 4R photo paper. But even if it looks ok, I still want to try if I can get a perfect focus with my phone.

One possible way to solve it is to carry a HDMI screen. Samsung's camera app can output a HDMI preview when connected to an external monitor. But I wonder how I'm gonna take a picture of bird with such chunky devices.

The moon.

And through this telescope you can actually see the slow movement of the moon. Amazing

Found an article to explain the difference between nullable and optional in OpenAPI 3. But it's in Japanese.

I hate Katakana.

レスポンス -> Response
データ -> Data
プロパティ->Property
オプショナル->Optional

Just slap them into Google translator and listen how they sound like.

Then you will likely to ask yourself: Why?

And just find out if you force Google translator to speak English in Japanese, you get the typical stereotype sounds of how Japanese people speak English.

And with the power of money and technology, I'm able to get my new monocular (spotting scope) before tomorrow. (In plain English it means I paid extra for air express, so I get my package this evening.)

Did a quick test, since it's evening and the night is cloudy, the ISS and moon are not available for tonight. So I take a picture in 60x optical zoom with my phone in about 10 meters away. The circular pattern is 9 centimeters in diameter, and I'd say it's not bad! I know some brands like KOWA and Swarovski can get better image but they are expensive. Their spotting scope will cost me about 5000 USD for 82mm objective lens. And mine only cost 5000 CNY, about 700 USD. I'd say the result is pretty good.

Maybe with longer distance it will have some dispersion, and I don't have expensive accessories for the lens. For example, KOWA sells extra pieces like extender and converter for astronaut camera. Mine don't have those, but think in a good way, that's the top level gear I can get with this price. I don't need to spend more in the future. I mean, I know myself, I always want the best. So it would be a bad time for my wallet if I go kowa or Swarovski.

Mistral AI really shines a light on OpenAI.

As a cyber collector, I have LLaMa1, LLaMa2, Mistral8x7B laying in my nas. Although I don't have powerful enough hardware to run them, but it's a good thing to have. And I'm looking forward to the dolphin variant.

* Dolphin is a decensored model based on those open source models.

Today rains a bit. When I went upstairs to change water, I spotted two doves came and ate there. I'm pretty surprised. Possibly because cats didn't visit my yard when it's raining.

Note: The cats need to go through the second floor to visit my yard. It's pretty hard to imagine, but imagine someone don't know how to design a house but they built their own house anyway at 25 years ago in a tight corner of a city. That's where I live.

Although Samsung has made me feel a little good about integrating AI in this way, I still don’t like it very much.

But at least the model is offline and does not require a subscription fee. In fact, this toot was written using the translation function of Samsung input method. I type Chinese, it outputs English. I don't change the output at all.

Maybe using the internation code (the 3-letter combination for each character) is better in terms of less character I need to write.

But I didn't find any good digital source for that. I download the 4 digits codes from wikipedia.

For those who don't know, just watch Puella Magi Madoka Magica.

Sometimes I really want to hire someone to fix this sh*t for me.

Kinda Chinese-only problem. Possibly related to the proxy I used, but never figured out why.
