I was always annoyed that I had to adjust brightness when switching from an IDE in dark mode to a bright web page. I was aware of Lumen https://github.com/anishathalye/lumen but didn't use it since it does not support external monitors. Therefore, I built Lumos, which is heavily inspired by Lumen but adds support for external monitors. The DDC/CI part of the code is vendored from https://github.com/MonitorControl/MonitorControl . It really improved my experience and I almost never have to manually adjust brightness anymore. And it is open source so I wanted to share it here. Comments URL: httβ¦

Hi HN, I'm Adam Ginzberg, one of the cofounders of Subframe, a code-first design tool. One of the things I'm really curious about is understanding LLM performance on subjective domains like design. As an experiment I built this game which presents two designs of the same screen, one of which was generated by AI. First you pick which one you like better and then which one you think was made by AI. Most design work happens in an existing product, so we set up this game to test that. As context, the AI gets 4 screenshots from the existing product, the product's icons + fonts, and a written briefβ¦

I have just finished reviewing the 2nd edition for my Markov Chains book. This for programmers who want Markov chains explained through code, not proofs. You build chains as matrices and solve them in C: power method, steady state for DTMCs/CTMCs, simulation to check the numbers. 2nd edition just out: errata fixed, new material on uniformised/embedded DTMCs, and the code now has tests and CI. Repo has the PDF (CC BY), C solutions (GPLv3), and ~14 models (Land of Oz, mouse maze, a Shakespeare sonnet...) also in PRISM, MATLAB and Excel. Errata and feedback welcome.
