I’m at step 0—asking “This site is awful, is this AI?” I should have gleamed it from the visual design language, but it was the writing that clued me in.

This cannot be written by a real person.

Isn't this the pervert trying to record me in when I am changing in the locker room? Hard pass.

That's right. It's not skill. It's technique. And there are techniques that make it brain dead simple.

I think we're just in an transition point. When I get materials that are clearly AI generated, I look at them as if there was less effort put into it. But that is irrational. If it was verified for accuracy, and edited for conciseness,

Her ted talk about the math of love is so great. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yFVXsjVdvmY And when she straight laughs in Michael Steven's face about the price of a pencil. https://youtu.be/SfY2JACiD

I exclusively take notes by hand now, and have amassed a pretty interesting collection of pens, paper and notebooks.

The company that helps connect kids with the adults who want to harm them is having a hard time replacing humans? Shocking.

1: true. 2: that someone else has to get approval for the cost

And AI is the reason why developers are being laid off. Don't trust a fox to count your chickens.

I guess the days of engineers getting to be so casual about memory footprint and CPU cycles is over.

Not OpenAI’s fault that the cost of a shipping container doubled. I collect fountain pens which have nothing to do with the data center market and the big 3 Japanese makers announced pretty substantial price hikes.

Valve very much is in the position to subsidize the costs; they charge 30% royalty per game sold. Valve often boasts that they have a very high Rev / Employee number.

Opening paragraph is not the profile of a rockstar developer. At least not the rockstars I had the pleasure of working with.

It had nothing to do with smarts. They held a public comment about the changes and responded accordingly.

Early on with ChatGPT I had it write a script for an Avengers movie, but all the Avengers have below average intelligence.

> So obviously there is no reason to invent things that are not true. Because everyone who has ever been convicted of a crime actually committed the crime.

Thank god. I’ve been waiting to have a reason to tell someone I collect fountain pens. Computers depreciate because they are obviously being supplanted by newer better models—until they become vintage and then move into collectibles.

I’ve had the best luck selling in Craigslist. Every other platform has been sub par.

No. Our justice system has never actually been based on evidence. It’s based on the doctrine of judicial discretion in the name of preserving order.

Not just google. I asked ChatGPT about some pen refills, and it gave me a very factual response sourcing to my own reddit post discussing the topic.

Generating a QR code to see the graph online is kind of cool, but also kinda dumb too. I mean, these days kids have smartphones, what's the point of a graphing calculator?

The comments on this are fascinating . Although, I was waiting for someone to chime in with "HP is better cuz RPN." 2 dinners out for a family of four would cover the cost of this calculator. If my kid's school required this

Claude does not have a "theory" of anything, and I'd argue applying that mental model to LLM+Tools is a major reason why Claude can delete a production database.
