> infantile shit I think it’s valid to not trust the US with your data. But if the reason is some TDS “Orange Man Bad”, it’s you that’s acting infantile.

So stay inside like prison until I can be outside and present? No thank you. I enjoy mindful meditative walks as well. But I would never force myself to only take such walks. Now that I can be outside and work I will do so precisely for my

That’s not true. I would not treat a walk where I am working with Claude Code as a break. It’s just as much work as desk work is. You still owe yourself a proper break.

You can also just talk it out loud to Claude while you’re on a walk getting some sunshine. Done.

What if you’re a musician and use design as part of your marketing? Why should a musician deep dive design when they really only care about music?

Depends on what you’re building and whether it’s recreational or not. Complex architecture vs a ui analysis tool, for example. For a ui analysis tool, the only reason you code by hand is for the joy of coding by hand. Even though you can dr

It could also be a skill problem. It would be more helpful if when people made llm sucks claims they shared their prompt. The people I work with who complain about this type of thing horribly communicate their ask to the llm and expect it t

> I’d be furious To me it just comes across as low emotional intelligence. There are very few things worthy of being furious, in my opinion. Being furious is high cost.

Oh it’s deliberate. It’s been THE online platform for far left radicalization and extremist views for at least a decade now. It’s by far the most intolerant social media platform relative to the mainstream platforms.

My car drives me around town unassisted. Whatever you want to call that - does the equinox or ioniq do that?

So no, you don’t have a source. Supporting parties on the right does not make you a nazi. Raising your hand does not make you a Nazi.

I know people with disabilities that struggle with writing. They feel that AI enables them to express themselves better than they could without the help. I know that’s not necessarily what you’re dealing with but it’s worth considering.

You’re describing an extreme so let me counter with a different “what if” extreme: If , every day, you use a wheel chair for five minutes and run for several hours followed by 200 squats then your legs will not atrophy. My point is that wr
