I have been thinking about just this the past two weeks. I have been trying to recall the excitement, the joy in the most mundane things, and indeed I think it has a lot to do with anticipation. FWIW LSD allowed me to experience this joy, a

I wanted to reply this to your other comment but it works here as well. If I get frustrated by it because it just would not "listen", I discontinue its use!

But it is futile to get frustrated or annoyed by an LLM. I do get frustrated, too, but I do not "yell" at it hoping that it will miraculously do what I want. GPT (again, free tier, so no wonder) got me frustrated too because I fel

Same. I have never seen it (Opus) act like this either. EVER. Not in the past 3 years at least. Be specific. That said, GPT always acts up even if I am specific, but I only have the free tier there.

I thought reading is not going to do that much, as it only improves your recognition, not your ability to actively use the vocabulary. At least this is what I came to find, as I have some issues currently with "blanking" more than

Yeah, heck, whenever an LLM puts my thoughts and intuition into words, it sounds really complex as well. (FWIW I have an issue with producing words, rather than recognition. I do have the intuition I just lack the labels for it.)

Yes! I immediately noticed that what I said was wrong (even though the word I said still felt somehow connected to the thought I was trying to communicate). I was really worried at first when it happened because at the first time I had no i

Oh yeah, I have been sleep deprived so much that the things that I said made no sense. I still formulated sentences but they did not have any meaning. In fact, I noticed this myself and I was like "fuck, what I just said made no sense&

by johnisgood 2mo ago
Yeah because "works many times in a row" = "deterministic" to many people.

by johnisgood 2mo ago
Yeah! I added that as an example and then edited it out. Your parent's comment makes no sense. Water can kill you, too! It does not mean that drinking water is bad.

I think this is making the assumption that temporally elevated HR and BP is bad.

> Oracle treats empty strings as being NULL. That is ridiculous. Do not they know the difference between "" and NULL?

My previous comment got flagged about a minute after I posted it to you. It was three paragraphs and it argued a position without any abuse in it. It is probably someone in this thread who hit flag instead of replying because they did not l

Yeah, because criticizing the US, and/or making China look good can get you on certain lists. Maybe that is the reason? FWIW I do not buy into the "China bad, we good" narrative either. The US has done really fucked up things

Good, so it might not be over, considering everyone around the world can use PGP and browsers?

Cannot you just obtain them the same way you would obtain any copyrighted material and use them locally?

Oh brings me to the good pre-CoC era when we did not need to have explicit rules and a simple rule "don't be an asshole" worked just fine. :D You might say that it is too broad, but now with the CoC you have many more broad r

What do you mean there is not a whole lot of homework prior to Grade 7? We had a fuckton of homework at every grade, here in Hungary.

That is what I have been saying: we need ZKP! I highly doubt they will implement it though.

They were pretty good a year ago, so I am sure it is even better than that now.

I have many projects with 0 commits, meaning were I to use git, it would be a single commit. It does not mean anything.

by johnisgood 3mo ago
Yeah, pretty much. :)

I removed it but I added that I hate these people. :P So yeah, it pisses me off, too.

GPL makes sure that the code remains open. Seems like these new gen devs are against open source.

by johnisgood 3mo ago
Yes, these are gut feelings. That said, I have lots of experiences with Opus and I have lots of projects and contributions (all reviewed and tested) made with the help of it. Definitely useful, to me and to people whose project matters to t

I do agree.

I think that the numerical example you gave appears to be wrong unless you intended 1% rather than 0.01%. In any case, fair enough. The concern is that organizations will build processes around AI where many people do not review outputs car

I have found many mode of failures with Opus during some task related to writing letters (not legal), and I actually put it into the memory and it works more or less for these specific tasks. For example when I want it to draft something, i

If I vibe code a project, that involves docs and tests as well. Obviously I do not, at any point, do anything blindly and there are some iterations for everything. I always double-check, and I do not use "agents", I do everything
