  Okay, so the submitted title is a lie? "I wrote the manual..." Would you consider changing it to something more honest?

    Oh come on.

      Come on and what? We are dazzled by this cool new tech and so now precision in speech no longer matters?

        Human language is the new code; precision in speech is outdated and irrelevant

        You almost had me there, I'll admit, but then I looked at your (short, new) comment history for a Poe's Law check. A much-needed perspective around here! Keep it up, and good luck staying on the right side of the site guidelines -- your shtick is close to the edge, but very refreshing if done well.

    It's not me who decides. I just pointed out that the irrelevant date is related to the AI generated nature of this text.
    - arduanika 9mo ago
      Ah. My bad, yelling at the messenger. But the actual "author", who might also be the submitter (nick = Nicola?), has some explaining to do. There's a lie in the submission title, and the same lie in the github readme intro. Thanks for helping alert us all to the sloppiness and deceit. And thanks to all who flagged.

        i genuinely wrote the thing myself. i wrote it in notion and had lots of spelling/grammar mistakes and no formatting, so i asked claude code to put it into a markdown file and polish the writing. im not going to sit here and do this myself bc this is not my full time job and im just trying to get my ideas out into the world

    The person you are responded to isn't the author of the post.
    - arduanika 9mo ago
      Fair point, but neither is this lying "Nicola Sahar" character.
      - nick2837 8mo ago
        what am i lying about exactly?

  >"Used AI" >"Wrote this in a day" >"So please forgive any imprecision or inaccuracies" Um, no? You (TFA author) want people to read/review your slop that you banged together in a day and let the shit parts slide? If you want to namedrop some AI heavy hitter to boost your slop, at least have the decency to publish something you put real effort into.
  - sho_hn 9mo ago
    You are not talking to the author. The comment was a quote from TFA, written (or, well, prompted) by someone else.

      I know, that's why I'm quoting the author and not the commenter, and why I said "you (TFA author)"
  - nick2837 8mo ago
    i genuinely wrote this in a day. ive been in ai for 9 years, well before chatgpt came out. i used Claude Code to turn it from my notion draft (spelling mistakes, no formatting, etc) into a well-formatted markdown file. you don't need to believe me, move on with your life. the guide is free and is meant to genuinely help someone use AI in a better way
- nick2837 8mo ago
  i wrote the manual on notion and asked it to put it in a markdown file and fix my spelling and grammar. if you read the disclaimer full, i specifically state i did not use it for brainstorming or adding net new ideas
nick2837 8mo ago
thanks i fixed this!
