Google is no longer a technology company, it’s a vehicle for engineers to acquire wealth via promotions

Completely disagree, I think LLMs write horribly badly.

Documentation, marketing, prose, it’s all horrible slop writing, immediately recognisable regardless of model

Slop

LLMs write so badly

I have never seen anyone ever park and leave their windows open. Ever

This, I’ve completely lost interest in side projects outside of work since the emergence of LLMs. It does nothing for me any more

Slop

A website isn’t a videogame

Interesting that you can see COVID in the graph

I wonder if there is a statistically significant group of people with a mild potassium deficiency, who crave bananas due to it, but then go off them again when their potassium stores are replenished.

It’s slop

“Width-bearing”, wow, Claude really loves that “bearing” suffix doesn’t he

I appreciate the human writing, fwiw

This position assumes that purely LLM-written codebases are able to scale infinitely.

IMO there isn’t enough evidence for me to feel comfortable in that judgement.

Anecdotally, I find that pretty often LLMs (even bleeding-edge models) write unidiomatic/unscalable/poorly-abstraced code when working in large codebases.

You even felt the need to use quotes yourself.

“Resetting Xbox”

Gross and classless title. There was a time where people at least had the sense of shame to not do this kind of thing when firing people

Sauna raises HR without increasing blood pressure though (modulo some possible initial short spike at the beginning), because your blood vessels dilate.

Yes, the Americans are waking up, we need to make it abundantly clear to avoid them misunderstanding.

Wouldn’t scrapers just tell their bots to not solve the HAPTCHA?

I disagree. Many Palantir FDEs work on morally benign or even positive projects, for example helping hospitals during COVID. (Of course, many also do unethical work).

At Meta, almost everyone is contributing to unethical ends.

This is really cool and reminds me of a visual dictionary

In fact, I bet you could make a pretty good visual dictionary for language learners quite easily from this

I became profoundly deaf in one ear as a teenager. I suffered with tinnitus for several years.

I don’t notice it at all now. It’s possible it’s still there, but I never think about it.

It’ll probably happen to you too at some point. It can’t be forced though, unfortunately.

Why even bother creating a repo like this? Why not just link to a ChatGPT conversation?

Disagree - like many of the quotes on this page, it seems interesting at a very superficial level but upon further inspection turns out to be nonsensical.

If something requires attention, it’s by definition relevant
