Switching Back to Anthropic Claude Pro from ChatGPT

While I think both are comparable in terms of response accuracy, Claude better suited my needs for the following reasons:

  • Markdown syntax in input is previewed in real-time and properly formatted
  • Responses have better visibility, and the Artifacts feature allows you to view long code and diagrams in a separate window
  • Creating and editing Mermaid diagrams is smooth and easy to modify

A significant difference is that Mermaid is not supported in ChatGPT. For example, when you input Mermaid code like this, ChatGPT attempts to generate an inappropriate diagram using DALL-E, making it impractical. In contrast, Claude correctly renders the same code as a flowchart through its Artifacts feature with high visibility:

graph TD
    A[Start] --> B{Condition}
    B -->|Yes| C[Process 1]
    B -->|No| D[Process 2]
    C --> E[End]
    D --> E

The Ultimate Guide to RAW Development: Data-Driven Insights (SILKYPIX, Pixelmator Pro, and GR IIIx JPEG Compared)

Introduction

I’ve been using SILKYPIX to develop RAW images captured with my RICOH GR IIIx. However, I’ve recently started wondering: Is it really worth continuing to use this software?

There are two main reasons for my hesitation:

  1. The processing takes a significant amount of time.
  2. The preview feature is sluggish, and the software frequently freezes after extended use.

With macOS now supporting RAW files natively, a variety of apps are available for editing these files. To explore my options, I wrote a Python-based image comparison tool and analyzed three images to see how they stack up:

  • Image 1: A JPEG file developed using the macOS version of SILKYPIX, without any adjustments.
  • Image 2: A JPEG file developed using Pixelmator Pro, also without adjustments. Pixelmator Pro takes advantage of macOS’s native RAW support, ensuring high compatibility and efficient processing of RAW files.
  • Image 3: A JPEG image saved directly from the GR IIIx at the time of capture, with the “Negative Film” preset applied via Image Control.


AWS CodeCommit新規受付凍結の影響について

Business Insider などを読んでいるとAWSのCodeCommitやCloud9の新規受付凍結は、米国でもかなり問題になっている模様。

Amazon's recent decision to stop accepting new users for several cloud services caught some customers, partners and even a few employees by surprise.(Amazonが展開中の複数のクラウドサービスについて新規ユーザー登録受付を中止したことで、顧客や協力企業の間で混乱が広がっている。)

以下の記事は、最近の報道などを見た個人的な意見です。既に中の人ではないので、この件に関しては報道以上の情報は持ち合わせていません。
