To whoever needs to hear this;

Please don't use the word "skeet" to refer to a post online. I use bluesky semi-frequently, I've never heard that term before, and it's just... no. Just simply no.

Exactly this... when I was a kid it was all movie trailers, now they play the same fucking ads I get on youtube.

Right, because there was always such a weak connection between Twitter and "social media".

It's a patently boneheaded branding decision, there's no way to spin it as even potentially smart.

You realize you're the one repeating demonstrably false statements?

For real, I thought it was just me but I find the unfinished g's really distracting, even though I understand it's a stylistic choice my brain keeps thinking it's being rendered funky

The difference here is, the fruit pizza couldn't possibly be a pizza, because it's a salad :) /j

>After all, do you really expect to cover, for instance, “word salad”?

This is covered further down in the article where it's pointed out that one of the Merriam-Webster definitions is

>"A usually incongruous mixture : HODGEPODGE"

The author points out that Merriam-Webster actually has a looser definition of salad than they do, because the article is only considering edible things to count.

Also, I disagree - I don't think "fruit salad", or "chicken salad", or "egg salad" etc are "figurative" (not sure what you even mean by that), I would absolutely consider them legitimate salads.

Not saying I agree with the rest of the claims, but it is funny to think of a bowl of skittles as being a salad, and it's always a mindfuck to think about just how impossible it is to categorize every little thing into a neat little box.

Maybe we have a different definition of "donation", but it requires you to pay at least $2.50 to access it. Sounds like a purchase, not a donation. And for a demo of an HTML document.

Ah yes, let me just whip out my wallet real quick and pay for a demo of an HTML file. I'll _definitely_ be doing that.

It's a transparently disrespectful move. Apologizing for disrespectful behaviour is pretty normal.

Says it's in one HTML file... well, where? Why post a video if you could just link to it? I don't see a link to it anywhere, and I'm not watching a youtube video to look at an HTML file.

IMO human-verifying will always be a must, no matter how good the LLMs get. If I'm shipping code that I don't understand and it ends up having major problems, I'm still the one who's responsible for it, not the LLM.

At what point would it be worth it for clubs to just decouple from FIFA and start a new international federation without all the bullshit? I know as long as there's massive amounts of money involved corruption is bound to seep in, but the optimist in me wants to believe a new federation could be structured to be slightly more resistant to it.

I could see unregulated platforms blowing up, which would directly expose minors to far worse.

Like imagine if they all flock to 4chan, or similar.

I'm somewhat out of the loop, and it's not really mentioned in the article, but what's with Omarchy getting this crazy amount of financial support from this list of fairly prominent individuals? Until a few weeks ago I'd never heard of it, then what I did hear is that it's being made by a very... uhh, eccentric(?) individual, and now it's suddenly got a crazy amount of funding. What am I missing?

LLMs in general have a tendency to be overly verbose, in my experience.

You may underestimate just how petty we can be.

Still way too high.

I thought that link was safe to click at work.

I thought wrong :(

It at least landed with me, I had a sensible chuckle :)

Microsoft is run by a collective of aliens who are pretty good at imitating humans, but fall just a bit short.

In that case why not just say you'd prefer not to answer and move on? They're asking for your input, not AI input - if you'd prefer not to contribute literally just say so.

I reckon it makes for a pretty neat party trick, I guess

If you respond to me with slightly "off" english, I at least know it was a fellow human who wrote it and I will act accordingly.

Your agentic context is still going to shit out 3 pages where a sentence would suffice. Use AI all you want, and then WRITE THE ANSWER IN YOUR OWN WORDS.

I like this comment so much I checked out your profile. Turns out I just like the cut of your jib.

If you don't understand the answer, don't answer somebody else with it. You're attaching your name to whatever you copy-paste to people, and if you don't understand it there's a chance it's complete nonsense. Save yourself the embarrassment. If you don't know how to answer somebody's question, just say "I don't know".

I got that impression too. Absolutely reeks of LLM. Really irritating.

You're missing the whole entire point.

I think that's why they abuse the alert system now. People were outraged that he was running loose (very close to where I lived at the time) and nobody was notified, so now they notify us about every tiny little thing.
